"Four or five years ago I got a luxury light pack from you and it has
extended my outdoor career far longer than my aging back deserves." Frank Z. 3/2010
The breakthrough Hook Belt™ and individual gear Cylinders makes backpacking much more fun. Your gear stays organized and accessible in the three Cylinders. Keep all dirty/wet gear isolated from food, cameras, clean clothes. Adjust the waist belt once to the perfect fit and leave it that way all day long because you can slip the frame off and on the Hook just like a beltless rucksack. Your torso length does not matter because the shoulder straps are not weight-bearing. There is no weight on your spine. The fixed-length frame is 24" tall and will fit anyone from 5' to 6'6" tall. The ultralight aluminum frame uses epoxy-bonded joints with no welding, and is so strong the frame was tested with 200 pounds of weights with no damage.
All the weight of your gear inside the three Cylinders rests on the shelf at the bottom of the frame. And, you can set any bear canister on the shelf with the Cylinders stacked on top. The velcro loops that hold the Cylinders to the vertical frame tubes are not weight bearing so we can use ultralite fabric without tearing. The Hook Belt supports all the pack weight while the shoulder straps keep the pack stable, but loose, comfortable, and cool. The Hook Belt means you can set your pack down without the waist belt dragging in the dirt, mud, and poison ivy. You don't need to lean the Stackpack against a tree; set it down anywhere and it stands upright and rainproof.
The Cylinders attach to the frame with velcro loops and can be removed in a few seconds to use inside your shelter like duffle bags. Cylinders are made from triple-layer gridstop laminated fabric that is light, tough, and waterproof. You can float this pack across a lake and nothing gets wet. The outside surface is a layer of glossy polymer film that does not absorb any rain or dirt. Each Cylinder has a full-width Velcro closure (no zippers to jam) that makes access to all gear fast and easy. The frame side rails extend one inch above the horizontal top tube so you can hang the LuxuryLite Front Pack, hiking poles, etc.
The shoulder straps can be moved right or left along the frame top tube (even while walking) to perfectly fit your shoulders. The waist belt can be set easily from 24 to 44 inches with a moveable Velcro loop strap. There is no waist buckle so you can change the snugness of the belt by fractions of an inch for optimum comfort. The set of three Cylinders will hold a lot more gear than a typical internal frame pack rated at the same cubic inches because there are no wasted corners and no double-counted external pockets.
Now, you no longer need a big collection of packs and luggage for different wilderness and urban treks. One ultralight pack does it all. If you are carrying a small 10-15 lb load, you can leave the Hook Belt in camp. With a single 1140 cubic inch Cylinder on the frame the StackPack weighs only 1.25 pounds (20 ounces). The modular LuxuryLite® StackPack works without compromise for all your adventures... day trips, overnighters, weekenders, global adventure travel, expeditions, or six month thru-hikes. We have been selling LuxuryLite external frame packs since 2002 and we know it is so reliable, we offer a Lifetime Warranty. (see the Home Page for details).
