OUR ORIGINAL BACKPACKING PACK

The 3400 Windrider has made a name for itself as the ideal Appalachian Trail thru hiking pack with its massive mesh pockets that help to dry wet gear on the move, and its adaptable carrying capacity as supplies accumulate and dwindle along the route. Ideal for weekend, section, or thru hikes where resupply points are less frequent and/or for equipment flexibility. When the extra volume is not in use, the 3400’s top can roll down enough to make the overall size of the pack similar to the 2400, but that additional space can come in pretty handy when you need it.

I love this pack.

It took a couple of trips to figure out exactly how it should sit on my hips and shoulders but after I got it dialed and broke in, I love it.

Perfect for me for 3 season backpacking

I had already purchased the Windrider 4400 for longer trips between resupply, and my winter trips, but needed something smaller for the rest of the year. One thing that I'm happy about on the new one is the larger more accessible hipbelt pockets.

Amazing product, fast shipping and who doesn’t love stickers??!!

The wind rider is perfect from someone who is looking to lighten their load, using it with the pods makes the most out of the space you have in your pack.

The materials used in the construction are super high quality and durable.

Wouldn’t mind if they threw in a trucker hat for repeat customers!!

Love this bag. Very well thought out and super light weight. If something happened to it I'd buy another tomorrow.
