Description
- Ultra 100X fabric features a woven Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) face fabric laminated to a waterproof backing. Ultra fabric boasts extremely high abrasion and tear resistance and is the strongest fabric we offer.
- Ultra fabric is not coated with DWR or other chemicals and is PFAS free.
- The pack material is waterproof. All seams and attachment points are taped and the pack is constructed using hydrophobic thread, making the packs highly water resistant.
- Provides enough space for gear and food to accommodate most multi-day ultralight adventures.
- The Sub-Nero features an interchangeable strap design allowing you to pick the perfect strap for you. The design also allows you to swap out straps for specific adventures. You can choose from our comfy Standard S Straps, Small/Women’s Straps, or our Vest Style Straps with integrated water bottle pockets. Check out the Sizing, Straps, & Fit tab for more information on each style strap.
- An optional, removable, webbing belt is 1″ (2.5 cm) wide and has a maximum adjustment of about 50″ (127 cm) circumference. The belt contributes 1.2 ounces (34 grams) to the total weight. It can be trimmed down or removed.
- Features a roll top closure with a stiffened opening which keeps water out and allows you to compress the top of your pack as your gear load shrinks.
- Use the provided top strap to lash items to the top of your pack or upgrade to the optional Nero V-Top Strap to allow you to carry a Bear Canister or other heavier items.
- Large stretchy mesh center pocket is great for quick access items. Mesh also lets you dry wet clothing and gives you a clear view of your gear.
- Side compression straps are made from non-stretchy Dyneema® cord for squishing down the pack volume. They also allow you to stand tall items like trekking poles or an umbrella in the side pockets.
- Side pockets are sized to fit 1 or 1.5 liter bottles. They are positioned low on the pack and slanted forward for easy access without removing the pack. The pockets have drainage holes at the bottom, and elastic that keeps them tight at the top.
- Along the sides and front, you will find a variety of loops for attaching optional add-ons like our top side pockets, shock cord lashing, and ice axe loops.
- A closed cell foam sit pad measuring 11″ x 15.5″ (28 cm x 39.4 cm) is included and adds an additional 1 ounce to the total weight of the pack. The foam provides some cushion and support against your back. The sit pad is held in place with shock cord and comes off quickly for breaks. The shock cord (.3 oz / 8.5 g) and sit pad are removable and replaceable.
- All Zpacks gear has a two year limited warranty against defects in materials or workmanship.
- Made in the USA.
Foam sit pad adds 28 g

Ultra 100X is composed of a woven 100 denier Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) face fabric laminated to a waterproof lining.
Torso Height:
This backpack has a single belt attachment positions . The actual distance on the pack from the bottom of the belt to the top of the shoulder straps is about about 18″ (46 cm), which will fit most adults. On a frameless backpack, it is nice to have the shoulder straps roughly level with the tops of your shoulders (rather than wrapping up around them) so that more weight is forced on to the webbing belt. The pack body does not extend much above your shoulders and load lifter straps are not needed.
Shoulder Straps:
Small/Women’s Straps
Comfy 3/8″ thick and slighlty narrower 2.5″ wide padded contoured shoulder straps that are shorter than our standard straps and designed for smaller torsos. The straps have a daisy chain for clipping on items like our popular shoulder pouches, shoulder pouches w/ zipper, water bottle sleeves, and an adjustable position sternum strap is included. The shoulder straps have 3D mesh on the underside which gives them a little bit more cushion. |
Standard Straps
Comfy 3/8″ thick by 2.75″ wide padded contoured shoulder straps. The straps have a daisy chain for clipping on items like our popular shoulder pouches, shoulder pouches w/ zipper, water bottle sleeves, and an adjustable position sternum strap is included. The shoulder straps have 3D mesh on the underside which gives them a little bit more cushion. |
Belt Size:
The webbing belt will fit up to around 50″ circumference and can be trimmed down for smaller waists or swapped out for larger waists. To move the belt to a different position, slide off the belt buckle and back the webbing out of the backpack attachment points.
