The Aquilo pack is a versatile performer with plenty of volume, excellent load support, and a wide range of organizational options that will quickly make this your go-to pack for long distance trips and weekends alike!

The internal sleeping pad pocket holds your pad securely to maximize load support and works with closed cell foam or inflatable pads.  The comfortable padded harness features ergonomically shaped padded shoulder straps and interchangeable padded hip belt.  The removable sit pad is easy to access from outside the pack and is ideal for adding comfort on rest breaks or that little bit of extra padding under your hips that makes all the difference while sleeping out.

For trips requiring heavier loads or those interested in optimal comfort on the trail, the included removable 6061 Aluminum "V" stay extends the comfortable load capacity up to 35 lbs.  The five external pockets and internal removable "Trail Wallet" stash pocket provide excellent gear organization.  And the roll top closure helps keep your gear dry during inclement weather. 

The Aquilo pack offers all these features and more at a value that is hard to beat!

Made in the USA.

I have just returned from 8 days backpacking in Italy and I have never carried a more comfortable Pack in my 48 years Backpacking.  The hip belt in particular is the best, I never knew it was there. - Patrick Egan, UK
