Hiking Packs

A great hiking pack is defined by its ability to work with your body, and not against it. Our unique Freestyle harness provides the comfort and support for you to see the world ... without feeling its weight on your shoulders.

The FreeStyle™ Harness Series

Purpose designed for maximum support and comfort

The ultimate in harness design for backpacks

There are three major elements our FreeStyle harnesses offer:

1. Free movement
2. Free breathing
3. Stability

FreeStyle™ Harness

The FreeStyle™ Harness is specifically designed for carrying heavy loads over many days.

Discover a comfort that you did not think was possible. Comfort that reduces fatigue and unpleasant pressure points. This harness works with your body not against it.

Shoulder Straps; the stability control for your rucksack.
Bi-laminate EVA and open-cell foam provides firm cushioning without compromising on strength. This two stage foam reduces the incidence of pressure points building up.
Ergonomic curvature avoids resting on your neck and major muscle groups, reducing muscle fatigue whilst you are on your walk.

Hip Belt; the load-bearing area of your rucksack.
Tri-laminate EVA and open-cell foam combinations offer rigidity and comfort.
The conical shaped hip belt enables the belt to be tightened fully without hindering the legs and hips range of motion. The pressure is placed on the parts of the hips that do not move.

Back support; vital for your comfort whilst walking.
A combination of 3D mesh, high performance padding and alloy staves produce great comfort and support once contoured to the user’s back.

Packing a Rucksack

It’s important to place the heaviest items inside your pack as close to your back as possible. This will help maintain your natural centre of gravity, hence less energy will be needed to balance.
