The ShadowLight™ Ultralight backpack brings a new meaning to "ultralight backpacking". No longer do you have to sacrifice everything to get below a 2 lb pack weight!
Shadowlight- named for its ultralight weight and how well it rides on your back. Due to its geometry and weight, it feels like an extension of your body.
- Ultralight and Ultra Comfortable: Coming in at under 2 lbs (including a durable 24 in. frame & wide hip belt,) it comfortably carries up to 35+ lbs. The shoulder straps, hip belt, & removable back panel were all crafted to fit anatomically, making the Shadowlight Backpack feel more like an extension of your body.
- Ultralight With Extra Organization and Access: The Shadowlight Backpack is equipped with side pockets, large hip belt pockets, stretch-mesh pockets, & a full length main panel entry zipper to keep you organized on the trail while keeping your pack weight under 2 lbs. The adjustable roll-top gives you additional access & customizable space for packing.
- High Strength Ultralight Fabric: We used our own special Spectra / Robic Ripstop fabric, which gives you the benefits of both a high tenacity nylon & UHMWPE fibers! Enjoy the strength and durability of a much heavier fabric, but now in an ultralight package.
Embrace a better kind of ultralight exploration that doesn't sacrifice comfort & organization with the Shadowlight Backpack.

I loved my 25 year old Kelty backpack but a friend convinced me it was too heavy (6.5 lbs.) So I chose this pack because I'm a pocket girl, I like to be organized and know where everything is. I ordered the 65 because I felt the 45 would be too small. I was pleasantly surprised. This pack is not only light it's VERY comfortable, which, at 64 was my highest criteria. I love the pockets and the middle zipper is super convenient. If I was forced to complain about something I would say the side pocket closures are kind of hard to really cinch up, but that's a very small thing and I wouldn't have let it stop me from buying this pack. I just packed everything for this weekend's coming trip and it's 15.42 pounds total. Nice. I completely recommend this pack...you won't be disappointed.
this is my official big purchase for me and my new backpacking hobby. i was using a teton 85l for over a year. as i start to dial in my gear as far as what i need and what i dont need that 85l was way overkill for what i was doing which was just short 3 day trips. so i googled 60l back packs and this one come up. so i did some research and ended up buying it. my first trip out was 32 miles for 2 days and this pack carried so well. my pack weight came in at 28lbs. i would highly recommend this pack. so far so good. great product at a great price.
This pack was amazing for a 19 pound carry!
Overall good pack. Used center zip system a lot. Storage was Adequate. Water was easy to reach. Load lifters on the 45 didn’t work. I was confused how to adjust those up and down on the shoulder strap so it would correctly lift the load. Still comfortable but might need bigger version. Pack started to squeak after 10 miles. Wasn’t that obnoxious or anything that I’ve read, but it was squeaking a tad. It worked well with small bear canister but need 65 litter version for large bear canister. I put the canister in the pack. Top load strap is only adequate for a tent or sleeping bag, etc.
I am 63 and my son and his friend convinced me I needed to upgrade from my beloved 25 year old Kelty to an ultralight pack. I was skeptical that something that light would be as comfortable, but this Shadowlight is! I got the 60L version and I’m glad I did. I think the 45 would be too small for anything more than an overnight. Get this pack. You won’t be disappointed.
