**This backpack has been replaced by our newer Arc Haul Ultra. It has a similar design but is constructed with a more durable Ultra material.

From those grueling east coast ascents to long water carries across the desert, the Arc Air is a durable pack designed to be the ultimate combination of simplicity and function.

Featuring custom Curved Carbon Fiber Air Stays, the Arc Air creates a gap between your back and the pack for airflow and cushioning. The frame transfers weight to your hips, keeping the weight off of your shoulders and providing a comfortable fit.

Featuring adjustable shoulder straps, an interchangeable belt, and a variety of optional modular add-ons, the Arc Air is sure to become your pack of choice.

Natalie ★★★★★

The Dyneema fabric feels incredibly stiff and bombproof, so I don't worry about brush snagging it on rocky scrambles. Loaded it with 30 lbs for a week of ridge walking and the frame transferred weight to my hips without any hot spots.

Daniel ★★★★★

Took this out on a weekend overnighter, and honestly the roll-top and side compression kept everything snug even when I had to strap my tent on the outside. The Dyneema fabric shrugged off a few tree branches without a mark, and the frame carried 30 pounds like it was half that.

Jacob S. ★★★★★

My first trip with it was a 14-mile day hike and the 50L capacity swallowed everything without bulging awkwardly. The roll-top closure sealed tight through a sudden downpour, and the frame transferred the weight to my hips so well I forgot I was carrying a full load.
