Lightweight frameless pack for outdoor and photo carry.
The Outdoor Backpack 25L is a lightweight, frameless daypack designed to adapt effortlessly between outdoor gear and camera carry. Built around Peak Design’s modular Packing Tools ecosystem, it lets you customize protection and organization for clothing, food, and trail essentials—or configure it for anything from a single camera and lens to a compact professional kit. Carry camera gear when you need it, strip it back when you don’t.
A low-profile, hyper-adjustable harness delivers outstanding comfort for a wide range of body types. Vest-style shoulder straps distribute weight efficiently across your torso while providing quick-access storage and Capture Camera Clip attachment points. When loads increase, an optional padded hip belt adds stability, storage, and additional Capture mounting options.
Packing and access are intuitive and fast. The Ultra Cinch roll-top provides lightning-quick one-handed access and up to 5L of expansion, while a large rear access panel simplifies packing and creates an ideal layout for securely clipped-in Camera Cubes. Three oversized external Flex Pockets handle bulky items like water bottles, jackets, or tripods without disrupting the bag’s clean profile. Built from rugged, weatherproof Terra Shell fabric with integrated external carry systems, the Outdoor Backpack 25L delivers serious versatility in a refined, trail-to-town form.
