Nexus Lite 35-50L

No zips, no drama

Ultralight rucksacks aren’t generally known for being the most robust, comfortable or functional packs to carry. After all, when you’re trimming weight, something’s gotta give, right? Problem is, if that something is a frail zipper that decides to break in the backcountry, spilling your precious kit all over the trail, you’re in trouble. Recognising this, Sierra Designs has built the Nexus Lite, which boasts a unique zipperless construction to eliminate common gear malfunctions while also providing faster, hassle-free access to your stuff. Meanwhile, removable top and front panels (including a genius garment bag) give you 15 litres of expanding capacity, plus the versatility to make impromptu side trips and mini missions along the way. And when it comes to adjustable comfort, the innovative Y-Flex suspension redistributes weight from shoulders to hips to make for easier miles, day after day.
