The Windrider, like the Southwest and Junction, represents our vision of a versatile, adaptable, and capable tool for nearly any adventure. Introduced in 2009 as our first pack, countless backpackers since have seen and done it all with theirs. The Windrider’s main pack body is built with a new, fully woven Dyneema® 200-denier fabric that offers more durability than ever before with the same signature lightweight and 100% waterproof qualities that have made Dyneema our primary material choice from the beginning. With three mesh exterior pockets that offer visibility of whatever’s inside and a way to dry wet gear while on the move, the Windrider is a comfortable pack that delivers premium performance wherever you’re headed.

Key Features:
  • The new Dyneema® Woven Composite 3.9 combines the light weight of Dyneema® Composite Hybrid 3.8 with durability and abrasion resistance that surpasses even the heavier Dyneema® Composite Hybrid 5.9.
  • Redesigned shoulder straps and a sewn-through back panel provide a more comfortable and secure fit, with better weight distribution and less wear over time.
  • Redesigned outside pockets with more depth, lower back edges for easier access to water bottles, and improved security for gear (like the ice axe) make packing and accessing items more convenient.

Eva ★★★★★

Been using this pack for two seasons now and it still carries like day one. The versatility is what sold me — I've used it for everything from overnighters to a week of hostel hopping. It's the first pack I've owned that actually adapts to whatever trip I throw at it.

Benjamin F. ★★★★★

Took this on a three-day trip right out of the box and the load transfer to my hips felt dialed from the first mile. The side pockets swallow a water bottle easily even when the pack is stuffed. It's held up way better than my old frame pack did on the same trail.

Chloe ★★★★★

Took this out for the first time to break it in properly, and the way it adapts to your load is genuinely impressive for a pack that’s been around since 2009. The internal frame distributes weight so evenly that my shoulders felt fresh after a 10-mile day, even though I overpacked by a few pounds. I
