What does "Seconds" mean?

All of these packs have met our standards for resale, are fully functional, and are ready for adventures of all kinds.

Very Good

Minor cosmetic defects. A thread poking out here or there - these kind of defects are very difficult to identify unless you have a trained eye.

Good

More than one cosmetic or structural defect, but still deemed worthy for active and reliable duty in the wild.

Fair

Some structural and cosmetic defects. May require a patch a DIY repair, or replacement hardware for optimized usability.

OUR CLOSE QUARTERS TRAIL PACK

The Southwest 40 keeps you honest about packing smart and efficiently on weekend or section hikes where the supplies you may need to replace along the way are never too far out of reach. 

When the route is thick with vegetation, requires the occasional up and over immovable objects, and calls for “suck in your gut and shimmy through” type moves, the Southwest is the backpack you want up-close and personal. This pack family is made specifically for tough adventures that would rip most other ultralight-style packs to shreds.

Excellent Ultralight Durable Pack and Comfortable!
What a difference a pack can make on difficult climbs. The Hyperlite Mountain Gear 2400 Southwest is not just tough enough for the rocky canyons of the American Southwest its named after, it can handle the White Mountains in winter. Forget the bells and whistles, this pack doesn't need them to perform flawlessly.

Southwest 40

The pack fits perfectly. I love the streamlined simplicity of it. I backpack primarily through the Santa Lucia Mountain range in the Big Sur, CA area. It's rugged. It's beautiful. And the southwest 40 holds everything I need for either a weekend or a week long trip. This is the pack I've been looking for for a long as I can remember.
