--SOLD-- $40 shipped CONUS --SOLD--

--SOLD-- Zpacks Zilch XL 160g $80 shipped CONUS --SOLD--
The options are the padded waistbelt and the cuben center pocket. I really love this pack and it has worked out really well for me. It has never been overloaded. The bottom of the pack has two layers of heavy duty cuben. I scuffed a small area that did not even go through one layer. I rubbed some silnet on it and the scuff is barely noticeable. This pack is used but doesn't smell and is in good condition.

I'm pretty intersted in the pack. Do you have any other picture? I'm interested in to torso length and whether or not it has attachments for bungy cord.

re: more picture of backpack on 04/24/2012 22:06:28 MDT Print View

I just stuffed some of the things I'm selling into the pack to give it some shape. The torso length is the standard... a medium I think. The straps have been shortened a little. I'm 5'8" 158lbs. 32" waist. The second picture shows the scuff on the left. The third picture shows the bungees on the top. I have switched out the shockcord for some lightweight 1/8" stuff. It could easily be swapped back to something heavier.

The thread has a lot of details about the shirt. The size is basically a medium. I would say it fits more like a shirt than a jacket. If you are sweaty it is not easy to remove.

Brian thanks for the extra pack pictures. I'm thinking that the XL size is going to be more volume than I really need for my gear. I might change my mind but if someone else makes you a good offer don't feel obligated to wait on me.

re: volume of xl on 04/25/2012 11:04:14 MDT Print View

I wrote a little about my thoughts on the volume of the pack in a thread here. I don't have time to hunt it down at the moment. Basically I said it is great if you like to carry a lot of food or uncompressed down items. For some sections I will go 7-10 days between resupplies. Instead of crunching up a high loft down quilt or bag you can just stuff it into the bottom of the pack.

Edit: here is the thread with some info on this pack and my thoughts on it.

It is the UL 60, sorry for the confusion.

Several members have expressed interested. Sale is pending on the balaclava.

Thanks
