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.

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.

Water Bottle Sleeves are a great way to keep your water easily accessible while also counter-balancing your backpack. Designed to fit 1L "Smartwater" bottles and similar, these sleeves will attach to the shoulder straps on just about any backpack.

Tired of bending over backwards to reach your water bottles? Our Aquaclip Kit allows you to to clip a water bottle to your backpack’s shoulder straps or belt so you have it easily accessible up front. It will fit any small water bottle with a standard size neck. The bottle can be popped in and out easily on the go. We find that it carries the weight of a 500 ml (16.9 fl oz) bottle well. If you're looking to carry a larger bottle, like the 1L SmartWater bottle, we recommend our Water Bottle Sleeve instead.

The Zpacks kit includes one AquaClip, two One-Wrap® Velcro bands for securing it to the daisy chain on your shoulder straps, and a rubber end cap so that the clip cannot slide out of the velcro.

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 Nero Backpack.

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.

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. 

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.

Made in the USA.

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 with Dyneema® Composite Fabric​ material 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.

*Stick-On Key Zip Pouch colors are random and may be any of the Dyneema® Composite Fabric colors we have in stock.*

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.

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.
