The Exped Skyline 45 prioritizes comfort and durability over being a true "lightweight" pack. Suitable for multiday trekking, the roll top closure allows you to grow or shrink the volume as you go. The 450x300 denier polyester boasting a 1500 mm water column, in addition to the included rain cover, makes this an excellent choice for New Zealand's damp and rainy conditions. Considering the durability of the fabric used, an average weight 1.5kg isn't so bad. The only limitation to this bag is that it's unisex and therefor does not offer as ideal a fit for a lot of women through the chest and hips.

Fit tip:

Narrow through lumber and non-articulated shoulder straps

Harness AntiGravity

If you’re looking for a comfortable bag that manages weight extremely well, this is the bag for you. It’s by no means the lightest pack, but that means it can accommodate a much heavier load. If you’re looking to do some overnight trips in the range of 3-6 nights with light-to-midweight gear, think Milford track, Lake Waikaremoana, Abel Tasman, or Round the Mountain this will be an ideal volume for you. The harness is extremely customizable and moulds to your body over-time. The ease of adjustability paired with the comfort of this bag are why it’s easily one of our most popular and asked about packs.

The Anti-Gravity design of this pack does make the hip belt quite stiff at first – it does relax over time but if you have wider hips and this pack doesn’t quite work for you, I’d recommend looking at the Ariel EF.

Fit tip:

Hugs the hips really tightly
