Did You Know?
Flextail Zero Pump w/ USB-C Battery
The Flextail Zero Sleeping Pad Pump is a game-changer for backpackers! Say goodbye to the chore of manually blowing up your sleeping pad and prevent moisture and mold from building up in your pad.
We know that in the world of backpacking, every ounce counts, and every inch matters. That's why Zero Pump is crafted to be the lightest and tiniest outdoor pump out there, designed to trim down the weight of your pack and swiftly inflate your sleeping pad.
This bad boy is smaller than a Snickers bar, with a packed weight around 2 ounces including the 1.2 oz pump itself plus the included USB-C rechargeable battery, and a nozzle to fit your specific sleeping pad.
The Flextail measures a compact 1" x 3" (about 2.5 x 7.5 cm). Yup, you heard it right – smaller than your favorite candy! Say goodbye to bulky gear hogging up space in your backpack, Zero Pump has got your back!
Merino Wool Sleeping Bag Liner
Keep your sleeping bag clean on those extended adventures with our 100% natural and renewable Merino Wool Sleeping Bag Liner. Made with Gostwyck Ultrafine Merino, the liner provides unparalleled next-to-skin softness.
Super breathable and moisture wicking, our liners are great for keeping that funk out of your bag. They are also perfect for an extra level of protection when staying in hotels, hostels, or refuges along the Tour du Mont Blanc or Camino.
Zpacks Minimalist Trekking Pole
When weight is at a premium, our Minimalist Trekking Poles allow you to navigate the most rugged of terrain without sacrificing performance or function. These stripped-down, foam handle, trekking poles are made from ultralight, ultra-strong carbon fiber, and feature sturdy clasp locking mechanisms.
**Our 2024 design has been updated with clasp locks which are more secure and durable compared to the previous twist lock mechanism.

Zpacks Carbon Fiber Trekking Pole
These things are sweet. Light as a feather, and stiff as a board. I love the additional grip down low under the handles. Adds way more versatility on steeper grades.
– Jesse B., ★★★★★
Don’t tackle peaks and valleys alone, always take a friend, and in this case take two! Our trekking poles are made from ultralight, ultra-strong carbon fiber, with sturdy clasp locking mechanisms. They have a foam or cork handle for a comfortable sweat free grip.
In addition to being fantastic trekking poles, they can also be used to set up all of our Plex tents excluding the Altaplex.
Zpacks Lotus UL Umbrella
It was great at blocking the sun and flexible in the wind. I used it for hours in a rain storm yesterday and it was so light I barely noticed I was holding it that long. I plan to bring this umbrella everywhere.
– Julie C., ★★★★★
Take cover from brutal sun and intense downpours with our Lotus Ultralight Umbrella. We worked hard to develop the world's lightest backpacking umbrella. Weighing in at just 6.8 ounces it is perfect for beating the heat or helping you stay dry in a storm while still being durable enough to stand up to the abuse of a thru-hike. This umbrella will have your back rain or shine!
Add our Umbrella Holster for hands free use and our Umbrella Stuff Sack for storage.
Zpacks Trail Cool Merino Wool T-Shirt
Zpacks Trail Cool Socks
They are really comfortable, true to size, and really help with keeping your feet cool on a hike.
– Debbie L., ★★★★★
Prevent blisters and let your feet breathe with our Zpacks Trail Cool Socks. Enjoy the same performance elite athletes have come to expect in other sports with an ultralight hiking sock that's comfortable, breathable, and dries in minutes.
Zpacks Inflatable Pillow
Pillow was lightweight and perfect height. A good option for a lightweight pillow.
– Linda M., ★★★★★
Relax after a long day of adventure with our inflatable pillow. Designed for ultralight hikers looking to save weight without compromising comfort, our pillow inflates with only a breath or two and features a comfortable crescent shape perfect for back and side sleepers alike.
*This Item is Non-Returnable if Removed from Packaging*
Ultralight Travel Toothbrush
Make sure you have fresh clean teeth to lift your spirits without weighing down your pack. This ultralight, compact toothbrush is integrated into a case designed to function as an extension handle and includes a mini toothpaste tube.
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. Refills are also available here.
These are not returnable once the packaging is opened, unless there is a defect.
Trailbrush w/ 5g Colgate Toothpaste
The lightest toothbrush on trail. The lighter-than-a-gummy-bear Trailbrush attaches to the hole found on a Toaks titanium long-handle spoon, short-handle spoon, spork, or fork, multi-purposing the handle rather than making you carry another one for your toothbrush.
The Trailbrush weighs less than a US Penny!
*Spoon not included.*
BONUS: Includes a free Tiny 5g Tube of Colgate Toothpaste
Foam Sit Pad
On my first backpacking trip with this item we had some very wet weather and I repeatedly found uses for this very light but super practical sit pad. It’s comfy to sit on but was also handy for kneeling on when dealing with wet gear or having a clean/dry place to put things on. Everyone in my family wants one now!!”
– Brandie L., ★★★★★
When it is time to stop for a meal or to relax and take in the views, our Foam Sit Pad will give you a dry, comfortable seat anywhere. This ultralight foam sit pad folds down small so that it is easy to pack. It fits nicely in the base-straps on our backpacks, or in an exterior pocket. You can pull it out on breaks to keep your butt dry and padded, or tuck it into the foot of your sleeping bag for padding under your feet at night. It is blue on one side and black on the other.
This pad is included as back padding with our Nero backpack and Sub-Nero backpacks.
Lightload Towel (3 pack)
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!
