The SOOLITE 50 is the perfect pack for weekend excursions or epic thru hikes. It is immensely flexible: If you are an ultralight enthusiast, remove the hip belt and comfortably carry up 25 lbs. Add the hip belt and carry comfortably to 33 lbs. Add the carbon frame kit and you have a pack that can take you on epic adventures where resupplies are few and pack weights are heavy. Waterproof Dyneema (cuben fiber) construction means no pack cover is required and thoughtful design features such as double pockets on both sides and the optional carbon frame provide a level of flexibility few packs can match.
And the best thing: This pack is 100% designed and made in America by avid hikers who do all their R & D in the field. We proudly support cottage companies who are devoted to their craft. We are confident this pack will enable you to hike more comfortably and for longer distances. Give it a try on your next hike! You may find its the only pack you will ever need!
