Agile, 26L women's/narrow fit hiking pack with a streamlined design and comfortable, ventilated carry system. With weight-saving details such as easy-access drawcord entry, it's ideal for fast-paced day hikes and ultralight overnights.
Lowe Alpine says:
Streamlined, comfortable, and ideal for fast-hiking and ultralight overnights. With a ventilated back system and a stripped-back, no-nonsense design, it’s the ultimate pack for carrying essential gear when temperatures and intensity rise.
From fast-paced day hikes to ultralight summer bivis, this agile 26L hiking pack is breathable, super streamlined, and perfect for when you’re covering ground with minimalist kit. Its ventilated AirZone™ back system is built with a knitted construction, giving you stability and flex where you need it and encouraging airflow, with a convection channel allowing excess heat to escape. The result is an incredibly comfortable pack that moves with you over any terrain.
The AirZone Ultra’s details have been designed to keep weight and bulk to a minimum, from the ultralight compression straps which help to stabilise your load, to the easy-access, simplified drawcord entry. Stow wet gear or an extra layer in the large front stash pocket, with two further stretch mesh side pockets for your water bottle and other essentials you need on the move. Two handy hipbelt pockets, one zipped and the other open, are perfect for keeping snacks within easy reach, while an internal zipped pocket provides secure storage for valuables. Keep hydrated on the trail with space for a 3L water bladder, and stash away your walking poles when you don’t need them with the attachment points.
Combining a fabric created from recycled fishing nets with a simplified, comfortable design, the AirZone Ultra is our definitive pack for pushing the pace on your toughest days on the trail. Built with narrower dimensions, it’s ideal for women or those with smaller frames.
