Made from an ultra durable plastic film for long life and sized just right for most commercial bear bags and canisters, these sacks will shave ounces off your gear list and save you money. Sized to line our food bags and our backpacks as indicated on the Specifications tab below.

This thing was easy to attach and very lightweight. It will help me not lose track of IDs and cash in the bottom of my pack!

– Karen J., ★★★★★

Make sure you don’t lose your most important items. Attach this stick-on key zip pouch to the inside of your backpack, and your keys, wallet, passport, smartphone or other valuables will still be where you left them at the end of your hike. When you get to town the pouch detaches and fits in your pocket.

Just peel off the brown paper backing from the included flat clips and attach the pouch inside your backpack where you want it. We usually stick it towards the top of the backpack right behind the shoulder straps so that it is easy to get to. The adhesive bonds well and will also work on any urethane coated backpack material. Spare Stick on Flat Clips are available if you want to clip this pouch to a second location.

Excellent, Immediately noticed that the pack was more comfortable with these pads helping to hike longer.

– Louis S., ★★★★★

Our Shoulder Strap Pads add extra padding to your shoulder straps right where you need it. These shoulder strap pads should be compatible with almost any backpack straps. They are made with 3/8" closed cell foam, and a layer of soft cushioning 3D mesh on the underside. 

The loops fit my pack perfect and my ice axe perfect. What can I say...they’re perfect!

– Jerry C., ★★★★★

When your adventure calls for traveling along snowy ridgelines or climbing icy peaks, the ice axe loops are the perfect addition to your backpack. A pair of loops are attached at each side of the pack for securing two ice axes. The head of each axe secures through a loop at the bottom, and the handle is kept tight at the top with a shock cord band. The loops can all come off when you aren't carrying axes.

I love them. They work great for my trekking poles and fishing pole !!!

– Scott B., ★★★★★

When the terrain levels out or you’re strolling into a trail town, trekking pole holsters are a great way to stow your trekking poles out of the way. These are convenient if you want to quickly store your poles for climbing, road walking, or other situations where you prefer to have your hands free.

This item includes two pairs of adjustable shock cord loops.  Attach them to your shoulder straps and belt at each side of the backpack to temporarily hold a trekking pole at either side.

Simple and great to use and helps compact smaller loads.

– Christopher C., ★★★★★

Our detachable Roll Top Closure Straps let you cinch the roll top down to the sides of the backpack, rather than simply clipping it together. If you add these, you still have the ability to secure the top of the pack the normal way by clipping the top to itself.

The strap held my bear canister very well for my trip to the Adirondacks where a bear canister was required. Great product.

– Glen F., ★★★★★

Our V Top Strap adds additional stability when you’re carrying heavier items on the top of your backpack. It is a little bit more secure than the standard, single top strap.

It can be used to carry a bear canister so long as the canister can squish into your gear as shown. Alternatively, a canister can also be carried standing vertically inside the pack.

The V Top Strap is modular and can be added or removed from your pack as necessary. Our normal, single top strap is also included when you add this option.

These Top straps are not compatible with the Nero backpack.  If you need a V Top Strap for your Nero, you'll can purchase one specifically designed to work with one here.

This item is super. It is very light weight and keeps my pack dry. I am glad I purchased it with my Arc Haul 62L.

– Walter H., ★★★★★

Protect your backpack from pouring rain and muddy ground with our Pack Cover. Our pack cover is an ultralight option to keep your backpack dry, including the outside pockets. It includes an elastic clip at the top, and hooks at the bottom to secure it from storm winds.

Consider a Pack Liner as an alternative, if you don't mind your outer pockets getting wet.

These pockets are perfect for a few bulky items that I like to bring on my trips. I highly recommend them!

– Michael H., ★★★★★

Sometimes an adventure calls for a little extra space. Made from Ultra material, our modular Top Side Pockets allow you to carry extra gear (like your cooking pot or rain gear) on the outside of your pack while still being able to accommodate taller items (like trekking poles, an umbrella, or a fishing pole) behind the pockets.

This is one of those items that goes unnoticed when working properly. After a couple of long trail days I am happy to report it works as advertised. It’s worth the money. The thing I like most about it is it’s thick enough to shine under heavy load while remaining thin enough to go unnoticed on a light carry. It adds versatility to an already great pack. I don’t have any thoughts on how this could be improved currently.

– Kevin G., ★★★★★

Our Arc backpacks include a full-wrap padded belt. If you need a little extra padding in the lumbar area our detachable lumbar pad can double up the existing padding. The lumbar pad slides on and off the Arc belt as needed.

These are NOT compatible with our frameless backpacks.

 

The shock cord really helps to compress my pack down while also making it more functional. Great place to hold wet rain gear to dry or hang clothes to dry while hiking. I believe the shock cord is a must have. It adds more versatility and additional storage options.

– Daryl H., ★★★★★

The Shock Cord Lashing add-on can be used to hang items off your pack to dry, or to strap on additional items. The 3/32" shock cord is laced across the front of the backpack over the mesh pocket. The shock cord can be detached when not needed.

Made in the USA.

*This is NOT compatible with our Arc Zip or Arc Haul Zip backpacks.

Our Arc backpacks feature a removable and interchangeable belt. This is a useful feature if you lose or gain weight, or if the pack is transferred to a different size person. If the belt wears out before the rest of the pack you could replace it.

A 10.5" horizontal belt stay is required to attach a belt to one of our framed packs.  The stay is NOT included with the belt, but they can be found for purchase here.

Very happy with purchase! No complaints - high quality and durable as all Zpacks products are!

Your tent protects you every step of the way, from harsh rainy nights to dew dropped mornings. Shield your tent floor from unnecessary wear and tear, and add longevity with a flat groundsheet.

Our tent floors are reasonably durable as-is but an extra layer doesn’t hurt for peace of mind.

These groundsheets are sized to fit the indicated tents. They are intentionally several inches narrower and shorter so that they don't stick out past the bathtub floor and collect water.

This is also available as Poncho which also doubles as a pack cover.

**Triplex Classic size discounted and available while supplies last. It will also work ok with our other three person tents such as the Free Zip 3P, Triplex Zip, Triplex Pro, or Pivot Trio.

Zpacks Nylo Pro Groundsheet is made from the same durable 1mm clear nylon plastic as our popular Nylo Pro waterproof bags.

Nylo Pro plastic sheeting has higher puncture and tear resistance than the same thickness "cross-linked polyolefin" (Polycro / Polycryo) ground cloths that you may find elsewhere.

It won't last forever but is an ultralight way to protect your tent floor without breaking the bank. Cut your 5' x 8' (152 cm x 2.4m) tent footprint to size with regular scissors. Add stick-on loops to the corners for tent stakes if needed.
