front Utility Pack
Used on a multi day walk and it proved to be very useful - carried days food + PLB + light weight jacket - no need to remove / open pack for most of the day - VG
United StatesPretty good to great utility pack depending on how much you carry
I bought this to use as a backcountry fishing kit pack. I fly fish so there’s a bunch of misc small things that I use. The thing I liked about this pack is it is it has a large flat face. So you can buy zpack attachments for additional loops. Because it’s dyneema it’s also fairly weather resistant. But that’s where my two quirks also start. I’m guessing they use two zippers to allow left or right hand opening. But that also creates a small gap between them. Which means water can get in there much more easier than if it was a single zipper with a rubber stop. The thing that impacts me the most is the belt loosens pretty easily. Probably due to it’s only 1 inch wide and I’m prob carrying more than what was intended for it. But I can see it still loosening with a smartphone and snacks bouncing around. Adding one of those elastic loops would prob help reduce this.
United StatesSupa FUPA
As a backpacker that prefers a front bum pack over hip belt pockets, I absolutely love being able to integrate the FUPA into my Zpacks Arc Haul Ultra 60 waist belt. At 1.5 liters it holds everything I need for the trail without having to take my pack off throughout the day for nutrition and essentials. 100% recommend this item!
United StatesLove my Front Utility Pack
I love this bag and use it daily. It is a great waist pouch or crossover. It can hold a 16 oz water bottle, snacks, keys and a small card wallet. I use it constantly. The outside pocket holds my phone perfectly for easy access. Buying another for my daughter for Christmas.
United StatesFUPA thumbs up!
What a difference that little accessory makes! Having essentials so easy to get to takes hiking from a stop-take-off-pack-way-too-often operation to just go-go-go!
