Shadowlight Carbon 60 Backpack

Spray off both the outside and inside of your backpack frequently. 

To further prevent wear and tear, try to keep your backpack out of the dirt by hanging your backpack up where possible. 

If you really feel the need to get soap involved, get a tote or fill up your tub with water, and put just a little bit of that NikWax Tech Wash we mentioned before in there.

Soak your backpack in that mixture, scrub it a little bit, and the make sure it gets completely rinsed off. 

Once again, spraying off and cleaning your backpack is something that should be done frequently!

Yes. This pack features a removable hip belt, allowing users to customize the pack for lighter loads or specific trip styles. This also makes it easy to swap belts if you need a different size later down the road.

Yes. The Shadowlight Carbon 60 Backpack is built for backpacking, multi-day trips, thru-hikes, and demanding backcountry use. It combines a sub-2 lb weight, 64L total capacity, a full carbon-framed suspension system, functional load lifters, and external storage so backpackers can save weight without giving up comfort or organization.

The Shadowlight Carbon 60 Backpack weighs 31.5 oz in a size Medium with a Medium hip belt. That puts it under 2 lbs while still including a full frame, supportive hip belt, load lifters, external pockets, and center zip access.

The Shadowlight Carbon 60 Backpack has a maximum recommended carry weight of 40 lbs. Its CARBONFLEX™ Suspension System uses carbon fiber frame stays, functional load lifters, and a supportive hip belt to transfer weight to the hips and improve comfort under heavier loads.

Yes. The Shadowlight Carbon 60 is designed to carry heavier backpacking loads more comfortably than many frameless ultralight packs. The carbon fiber frame stays, load lifters, contoured shoulder straps, redesigned back panel, and improved hip belt contact help distribute weight instead of leaving it all on your shoulders.

Yes. The Shadowlight Carbon 60 is built for extended backcountry use and thru-hiking. It uses Robic nylon with Spectra ripstop, a reinforced bottom panel, reinforced pocket bases, and UltraStretch™ Mesh front pockets for abrasion resistance without a major weight penalty.

The Shadowlight Carbon 60 has 64L total capacity, including 49L in the main compartment and 15L in external pockets. This gives backpackers room for multi-day gear while keeping layers, wet items, snacks, water bottles, and other essentials accessible from the outside of the pack.

Yes. One of the biggest advantages of the Shadowlight Carbon 60 is its full-length center zip main panel access, which lets you reach gear inside the pack without fully unpacking from the top. It also has multiple external pockets, hip belt pockets, and side bottle pockets for quick access while hiking.

No. The Shadowlight Carbon 60 is water resistant, not fully waterproof. Its fabric has a listed 1500 mm hydrostatic head water-resistance rating, which means the fabric is essentially waterproof. But the pack is not seam sealed, so you should still use a pack liner, dry bags, or other waterproof protection for critical gear in sustained rain.

Yes. The Shadowlight Carbon 60 is hydration compatible and can be used with most water bladders. It also includes a removable hydration sleeve, giving backpackers the option to carry water internally or use the large side pockets for bottles.

The Shadowlight Carbon 60 is best for backpackers, thru-hikers, and lightweight hikers who want a pack under 2 lbs but do not want to give up comfort, organization, durability, or easy gear access. It is especially useful for people who want a lighter pack but are not ready to switch to a minimalist frameless design.
