"While it combines elements of packs from different sports, I wouldn’t call the Skyline a true hybrid — it’s far more focused than that. Instead, it’s a purpose-built fastpack that happens to excel at peak bagging, ridge scrambling, and speed hiking.
On top of that, it’s a well-executed product, plain and simple." -Gear Junkie
"the Outdoor Vitals Skyline Fastpack is the perfect choice for carrying a minimalist kit on a fair-weather overnight run. Its purpose-built, extra low volume chassis sits high on the back, all but completely eliminating bounce and sway while on the move. This pack is fast!" -Adventure Alan & Co
"I found this highly unique for those wanting to take longer faster trips where you can minimize gear but cover far more miles." -Thruhiker.co
"This shoulder harness suspension system hugs your body snugly but still allows you full range of motion for all-day comfort. Another first-class release from the guys at Outdoor Vitals." -The Coolector
"This, right here, feels good! Feels really, really good." -Engearment
The Issue With Other Fastpacks
We tried out nearly every fastpack on the market. And in one way or another, every pack was a disappointment:
Some bounced uncomfortably while in motion, others caused excessive rubbing & chafing, & others just didn’t have the right features to give us access to gear when we needed it most.
After nearly two years of intensive development, thousands of miles of rigorous testing & development, the Skyline 30 Fastpack is finally here.
