Fastpack 20

The Ultimate Direction Fastpack 20 is a sleek and versatile vest designed for self-supported mountain ultras and fastpacking adventures. Weighing in at 1.2 pounds, this 20L pack is an ideal companion for runners seeking to carry only the essentials on long, rugged trails. The main compartment features a large, open pocket with a 20L capacity, allowing for easy access to gear, snacks, and water. A secondary pocket on the front of the pack provides additional storage for small items, such as a phone, keys, or a headlamp. On the trails, the Fastpack 20 performs admirably, providing a comfortable, secure fit with its adjustable torso and hip belt. The pack's design allows for a smooth, even load distribution, minimizing bounce and movement.

The pack's pockets are well-designed, with the main compartment featuring a secure closure and the secondary pocket with a convenient zippered closure.
