Keeps your cell phone secure and handy when you need it for navigation or to take a picture. Pouch weighs next to nothing; a must for every serious hiker. I highly recommend this product.

Shoulder Pouches are the ideal place to keep your small camera or phone in reach for taking quick photos. The main compartment of the shoulder pouches are a good size for your wallet, car keys, map, headlamp, mittens, sunglasses, candy bars, pack towel, GPS, or any other items you would like to have within easy reach. The pouches carry comfortably on your shoulder, and you will hardly notice them there.

The small exterior mesh pocket can be used to store your small items like lip balm, emergency whistle, or a compass.

The belt pouches on Zpacks are one of the many selling points for their products. They are roomy, easy to access and are superior to that offered on any other pack I've used!

– Cristy G., ★★★★★

Be prepared for whatever the trail may bring by keeping your essentials close in hand with our belt pouches. These pouches clip securely to a padded belt, like on our Arc backpacks. There is plenty of space for a headlamp, folded maps, snacks, hat and gloves, gadgets, you name it.

If your backpack has a webbing belt, try Belt Pouches with Pads.

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

Sometimes an adventure calls for a little extra space. 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.

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.

Had high expectations of this case given Zpacks pedigree but still exceeded easily - crazy light, simple yet super-intelligent design, incredibly easy to use.

Our Airplane Travel Case is a useful addition for the jetsetting adventurer looking to blaze international trails. Slide your backpack inside to protect it when checking your backpack on to a plane. When you arrive, move the airplane case to the inside of your backpack and it doubles as a pack liner.

 

These stakes are perfect to me : strong enough, really lightweight and the tiny string is very convenient too.

– Patrick M., ★★★★★

These Sonic Stakes have a "Y-Beam" shape which gives them great holding power in a small package. The three-sided design also gives them good bend resistance for an ultralight stake. The price of aluminum beats titanium or carbon.

These are bright blue, which makes them hard to lose. They have a cord on the end to make it easy to pull them out of the ground.

Never hammer ultralight stakes. While the bend resistance feels very solid, these are able to bend if you put your full weight on them. They can also be bent back reasonably well.

Could be the best rain jacket on the market. Keeps you dry from the rain outside and dry on the inside as it is very breathable.

– Craig G., ★★★★★

When the skies are overcast and the rain is pouring down, our ultralight Vertice Rain Jacket offers superior protection and breathability. Our Vertice material is optimized to be lightweight without compromising on durability, and it is among the lightest possible choices for waterproof hyper-breathable rain gear.

Be sure to check out the rest of our Vertice Rain Gear.

Kept me dry in a heavy downpour and they are so small I can pack them along just in case.

– Kevin K., ★★★★★

Master the elements with the Men’s Vertice Rain Pants. Gone are the days of getting soaked with hot, humid and unventilated rain gear. Our Vertice Rain Gear material is optimized to be lightweight without compromising on durability, and it is among the lightest possible choices for waterproof hyper-breathable rain gear.

These are absolutely the warmest socks. I take them backpacking to put on when I get into camp and they keep my feet toasty.

– Amy W., ★★★★★

When the campfire just isn’t enough to keep you warm and your feet need a little extra help heating up, Brushtail Possum Socks are an ultralight must have. Made from a combination of New Zealand's brushtail possum fur, and New Zealand Merino lamb's wool, these socks are sure to keep your toes nice and toasty.

These socks are very thick and warm! They are rugged enough to hike in on cold days, and they also make excellent sleep socks. They are great for winter sports as well.

For extra warmth pair these socks with our Brushtail Possum Gloves!

*Socks are non-returnable if they have been removed from the packaging.

Excellent! I have the worst circulation and have tried literally every glove and mitten on the market. My hands and fingertips freeze within a few minutes of being in the cold wether it's mild or below zero. These gloves keep my fingertips warm! I do not have to wear anything else.

– Dave H., ★★★★★

Winter weather can be harsh, but when the digits drop yours don’t have to feel the chill. Made from a combination of New Zealand's brushtail possum fur, and New Zealand Merino lamb's wool, these Brushtail Possum gloves provide plenty of warmth when you need it most.

Featuring conductive ends on both the index finger and thumb, these gloves will allow you to use your smartphone and other touch screen devices without having to remove them.

These gloves are a great companion to the Brushtail Possum Socks, and can be used as a liner under our Vertice Rain Mitts

*Gloves are non-returnable if they have been removed from the packaging.

Held 5 days of food easily. Could hold a lot more. Compacts down to size you are carrying. Love the ease of the roll top snap closure. Is so lightweight and sturdy. A simple luxury to make things flow best on trail.

– Deborah S., ★★★★★

Our food bags are made from thicker 1.6 oz/sqyd Dyneema®​ Composite Fabric to stand up to the abuse of bear bagging and to resist abrasion from heavy, pointy food items. The fabric is strong enough to discourage most small rodents but should still be hung out of reach over night.The “Large” size food sack can hold about 5-6 days of food.

The rectangular shape fits well in all of our backpacks, either standing vertically or sideways depending on the pack volume. The wide opening makes it easier to dig through the bag and find what you need.

This is also available as part of a Bear Bagging Kit with cord and a rock sack.

If you don’t need as much space for shorter trips check out our 3-4 day Big Food Bag.

It helps keep my Soto Windmaster Stove and 4Flex Pot Support snug together with a 4oz fuel canister in a Snow Peak 700 mug with a Jetboil lid. Works even better with the smaller Soto Amicus stove. It provides a bit of protection for the stove too.

– Thomas H., ★★★★★

Keep your canister stove free from debris and protect your more delicate gear from sharp stove edges with this stove stuff sack. It fits a Soto Windmaster Stove perfectly, and should fit most other canister stoves as well. This stuff sack is made from black 1.0 oz/sqyd Dyneema® Composite Fabric which is a little bit thicker and more abrasion resistant than our other stuff sacks.

Need a different size?  Check out the rest of our Stuff Sack collection.

Fit is perfect, super light and durable enough. High level of craftsmanship.

– Or C., ★★★★★

Keep your pot lid from rattling and protect your gear from soot. These stuff sacks are made specifically for our Evernew pots and mugs. They are flexible and will also fit other brand pots and mugs with similar volumes. They are much lighter than the stuff sacks that typically come with cooking pots, and the waterproof Dyneema® Composite Fabric prevents soot or fuel residue from contaminating your other gear.

Don’t limit your adventure to just the water you can carry. Treat up to 30 gallons (120 Liters) of water on trail with Aquamira Droplets. These droplets work by producing chlorine dioxide which kills germs and bacteria in water. The two bottles weigh a combined 3 ounces when full making this a lightweight and compact solution to your water needs.

Net weight: 2 fluid ounces

Reasonably light. Tooth paste tube easily refills off a bigger tube with a little thought and allows me to brush my teeth twice a day for a week.”

– Brian J., ★★★★★

Make sure you have fresh clean teeth to lift your spirits without weighing down your pack. This ultralight, compact toothbrush includes an extension handle, a mini toothpaste tube, and a handy carrying case all for less than an ounce! If that is still too heavy carry only the parts you need.

The included toothpaste tube holds enough for a week or more if used sparingly. When it runs out, pinch the air out, butt it up tight against a normal toothpaste tube, and squeeze more in to re-fill it.

These are not returnable once the packaging is opened, unless there is a defect.

Lightload towels are the lightest, and most useful pack towels available. They come packed in a small cylinder, and unfold to about 12.5" x 22.5" (32 x 57 cm). They are super absorbent, and very quick drying. Imagine a name brand paper towel, except that these are cloth, reusable, hand washable, and biodegradable.

Don’t forget your towel!

Colors: Miscellaneous

This tape is made with adhesive stuck to thin Dyneema® Composite Fabric as the backing material. It has a brown paper layer that peels away leaving clear adhesive stuck to a Dyneema® Composite Fabric strip. Just peel off the paper and press it smooth. No heat required.

The adhesive sticks excellently to any of our Dyneema® Composite Fabric products such as shelters, stuff sacks, or dry bags. It also sticks excellently to the interior of our Hybrid DCF backpacks and our Ultra Fabric backpacks. It sticks OK to the polyurethane coating on the interior of our Robic backpacks. It will not stick to any silicone coated fabrics.

Lightweight, warm, compact and comfortable! It’s like a bag and quilt all in one. I need a warm toebox and love the fact that I can keep my feet nice and cozy while draping the rest over my upper body. This allows me to move around very easily and adjust. So far I love the bag!

– Craig N., ★★★★★

When the temperatures drop, stay warm and cozy with our award-winning Classic Sleeping Bag.

Includes a Free Zpacks Roll Top Dry Bag for Storage! A $30 value!

You can also get a similar bag as a zipper-less Solo Quilt​, or as a Full-Zip​ version that includes a draft tube.

 

It's hard to escape the sun beating down on your neck and arms during a long stretch of trail with little tree coverage. Protect yourself from the sun without needing long layers.

Banana Boat Sport Performance sunscreen is a trusted brand. It doesn't run, and it is sweat and water resistant. It applies smooth and clear, and has a mild odor. Best of all, it comes in a 1 fluid ounce tube which is the perfect size for a week or more on trail depending on how much skin is exposed and how often it is reapplied.
