Latitude Packs
An innovative front loading system that evolved from our FZ Access feature but takes it to a new level. The zippered stretch panel with waterproof YKK zippers can open from the top or bottom, allowing you to quickly get to your gear from both ends. A system of internal compression straps holds the gear in place when the panel is open. Front compression straps allow you to lash gear externally. A hidden lid with a foam padded bottom and drawcord closure is clipped in at the packs top; to hold essentials you need quick access to. Unclip the hidden lid to bring it with you into the tent.
What torso length should I get?
To find your torso length, measure the distance between your seventh cervical vertebra and the shelf of your hipbones. Do this by standing up straight with your feet shoulder-width apart. Tilt your head forward and place your hands on your hips, thumbs to the back. With a flexible tape, have someone measure from the most prominent vertebra at the base of your neck to an imaginary line drawn between your thumbs. This will be your torso length.
Nimbus Torso Lengths
Short Torso 14” to 18”
Regular Torso 18” to 22”
NOTE: Each framesheet has fine adjustment settings spaced in one inch increments to further fine-tune your fit. If you are an 18” torso try the short torso first.
What size hipbelt?
Our Ultralight Pack Belt is standard equipment on all of our Ultralight Packs (except Virga) and all packs with the Vapor Suspension. This belt is a “soft” belt. It has no plastic exoskeleton like our other belts. It is lighter and more comfortable when carrying smaller loads of 40 pounds or less. Although it is our simplest interchangeable belt, it still boasts the Pivot Point connection (except on Vapor Suspension Packs), hip stabilizers, dual density foam and a stretch woven fabric.
