Nicholas F. ★★★★★

It’s a relief to finally find a direct replacement for the worn-out stay in my older Arc Air Zip—the pre-curved shape matches perfectly, so the frame feels supportive again on my tall frame. Took maybe five minutes to swap in and the pack’s structure is back to feeling solid on the trail.

Penelope W. ★★★★★

My 23" tall back frame finally had the exact part I needed to bring my old Arc Air back to life, and the pre-curved contour matches the original so well that the load sits right again. Took about ten minutes to swap in, and the pack feels as solid as it did on day one.

Ruby ★★★★★

The 23" length fits perfectly into my Arc Zip Ultra, and the pre-curved arc holds its shape without any wrestling to get it seated. Took about two minutes to swap out, and the pack feels just as supportive as it did on day one.
