Shadowlight Ultralight Backpack

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.

Design Issues?

The metal support bar pushes my head forward. I have tried numerous minor adjustments to no avail. Just an FYI for 'out of country' purchases, I paid $213 for the pack, plus $60 shipping and $45 import tax. Plus, if I were to return this product it would cost me another $60 in shipping so I'm keeping the pack (for someone else). I guess it's buyer beware when ordering online. Having said this, many satisfied Outdoor Vitals customers, so maybe the problem is just with me.

Super comfortable pack. Feels like a lot bigger than 60L. Might have to get the 45L for shorter trips

Very nice product. I would consider this perfect if it wasn’t for the zipper. Once I got my rain liner in there the zipper on the bag is useless. If it wasn’t for that it would be an easy 5 stars and I’m probably being picky.
