Sweetwater UL 28L

Big comfort for little load-outs

Who said that ultralight has to be ultra-uncomfortable? With the brand-new Sweetwater line of UL packs from Big Agnes, you can now slash the weight of your adventure set-up while simultaneously entering a new world of comfort. Designed to become a part of your anatomy rather than just another pack you sling over your shoulders, the Sweetwater range comes with a running-style strap system for cinching loads down tight around your chest, an anatomically curved frame sheet for a more natural fit, and a perfectly designed hip belt for optimum weight distribution. And the result? You almost forget youre wearing a pack at all, whether youre hiking, running or scrambling. This version, the handy Sweetwater UL 28L, weighs about the same as a loaf of bread and offers enough room for single overnighters or ultralight 2-season trips and we firmly see it as becoming the new go-to when moving fast and light is the name of the game.

• Big Agnes is a small, independent US outdoor brand out of Steamboat Springs, Colorado a small ski-town that weve never visited but which we like to imagine is full of mountain-loving, trail-hiking outdoorsy types. That would make sense, since the company makes some of the best ultralight backpacking gear around, including the award-winning Copper Spur, Tiger Wall and Fly Creek tents. It is kit that has clearly been designed by a gang of folks who love sleeping in the dirt just as much as we do here at .

  Oh, and if youre still wondering where the heck that name Big Agnes comes from, we did try to find out. Depending on who you talk to, its either an affectionate tribute to a legendary truck drivin mountain mama, or a 12,000 foot peak in the Mount Zirkel Wilderness. We kinda like the first one better.
