Need warmth? Done. Sunburn defense? Check. Bad hair day camouflage? Absolutely. Think of it as a multi-tool for your head except way softer, lighter, and less likely to pinch your fingers.

Couldn’t be happier with this down hood. Perfect for quilt users, doesn’t slide around or off your head at night like a beanie can on straight, slick hair. Much better than the hood on a sleeping bag, which can slide into your face when you turn, and of course can’t be detached for use as a separate warm hood. The ultra light weight is remarkable. It’s very warm and has a cozy fit and feel.

– Rachel M., ★★★★★

Get ready for sweet dreams on cold nights when bundled up with the Zpacks Down Hood. A perfect companion to your ultralight down quilt, stay cozy and snug tucked away from the cold.

Zpacks Down Hoods are reversible, face whichever color you prefer outward.

Elastic straps on the back allow you to boost the height of your pillow with your sit pad, or any stuff sack or dry bag, and a shock cord strap secures the pillow to your sleeping pad to help prevent it from sliding.

This pillowcase is sized to perfectly fit our inflatable pillow, but it could also be stuffed with spare clothing like your Down Jacket. A zipper on the back of the pillowcase provides easy access to blow up your pillow, or to add or remove items.

Virtually any backpacking task requiring a knife can be done just as well, if not better, by small, compact travel scissors. These scissors pack down tiny, at a weight that beats even our smallest Pipsqueak Knife. Best of all, small scissors can be carried aboard flights in almost every country, so you don't have to check your bag.

The packed size is just under 2 inches (5 cm) and the blade length is just over 1 inch (2.5 cm) measured from the pivot point. The stainless steel blades stay rust free and are perfect for light-duty backpacking tasks like opening food packaging or mail drop boxes. They are also handy for cutting guy-lines, repair tape, or bandages, or for trimming your nails.

The small hole on these scissors fits our Mini S Carabiners or Tiny Oval Carabiners- handy if you want to clip them to your backpack or keychain.

These handy squeeze bottles hold 1 fluid ounce (29.5 ml each). They have a press-disc style top which is convenient to flip up and squeeze out small amounts. The top also screws off to fill it or empty it faster. These quality bottles won't leak or accidently come open in your backpack.

These are great for repackaging small quantities of shampoo, conditioner, sunscreen, moisturizer, hand sanitizer, and other cosmetics.

Natural wool fiber keeps you cool in the sun, warm when wet, and resists odor better than synthetics.

Throw it in the washer and dryer with your regular laundry.

This is a replacement for the Lycra Back Panel that currently ships with all Arc style backpacks. It creates a trampoline with an air gap against the wearer's back. It is also compatible with all older Arc backpacks as a retrofit.

The Lycra mesh is soft and stretchy and feels good on the wearer's back.

We also have our original style Mesh Back Panels which are made with pocket mesh. Some customers prefer the original style mesh because it is more firm, and has better airflow. Either style are interchangeable on all old or new Arc backpacks.

This is our original style Mesh Back Panel. It is used to add tension to our Arc style backpack frames, and to help maintain a gap for air flow against your back.

This will fit all Arc style backpacks, and can be retrofitted on old or new packs. It is made form our 3.5 oz/sqyd (119 g/m²) pocket mesh. The holes are a little larger than 1/8" (about 4 mm) and they allow very good airflow.

This mesh doesn't stretch as much as the Lycra Back Panels that are currently shipped on all Arc packs. Some customers prefer the more firm pocket mesh, and increased airflow compared to Lycra. Other customers prefer the more soft and stretchy Lycra that is now our default.

Our innovative interchangeable shoulder strap system lets you pick the perfect straps for each adventure, or swap out straps for different sized hikers. Just slide the straps into the pack and clip them secure.

Like all of our straps, they features comfy 3/8" thick padding, breathable 3D mesh on the underside, and a daisy chain for attaching your favorite accessories. An adjustable position sternum strap is included.

Some common accessories include our shoulder pouches, shoulder pouches w/ zipper, or water bottle sleeves.

All new Zpacks backpacks produced in late 2024 and on are compatible if the straps have clips at the top.

Imported.

These replacement trekking pole baskets work with most standard trekking poles including our Carbon Fiber and Minimalist trekking poles. Our ultralight baskets weigh just 2.8 grams each, 5.6 grams per pair!

This is a longer version of the standard sternum strap that ships with our backpacks. The webbing is 5" longer and adjusts to a maximum of about 17" (43 cm) from strap to strap.

The sternum strap loops around the daisy chain webbing on our shoulder straps, and should be compatible with other similar shoulder straps.

These hooks are made to grab 3/32" Shock Cord. 

Use a pair of these on the bottom of your sleeping pad to grab the cord or loops on your pillow and lock it in place.

Compatible with the shock cord on all of our pillow products including Pillow Dry Bags, the Comfy Camp Pillow, or our Inflatable Pillow.

Our vertical carbon fiber Arc Frame connects to the backpack by sliding into webbing pockets at the top and bottom of the backpack.

The pockets each contain a "stay holster insert" which covers the ends of stay to help prevent them from punching through the pockets. The inserts have metal sandwiched inside of them making them difficult to wear through.

The inserts are replaceable, and should be checked after 500-1,000 miles, especially if starting a long hike with a used pack.

Instructions:

1. Remove the three horizontal frame bars by pulling from the center until the end pops out. They flex easily and come in and out easily.


2. The vertical stays are difficult to remove. Pull up on the stay pocket, and pull down hard on the stay until the top end slips out of the pocket.


3. If the old inserts did not come out with the stay, slide something skinny (like a tent stake, or a horizontal stay) through the flaps and pull them out.


4. Replace the stay inserts if they are worn or punctured. Make sure the stay is between the two flaps on the inserts and is fully in place at the bottom and top.


5. Put the bottom of the vertical stay in first. Use one of the horizontal stays like a shoe-horn to pry/guide the top back into the upper pocket. It should go in without too much fuss.


6. Flex the three horizontal stays back into place. They should be behind the vertical stays.

A replacement rubber road tip. This cap should fit over most trekking pole tips.
