Aarn Featherlite Freedom
With more than 40 years dedicated to creating the best load carrying packs on the planet, Aarn is a small New Zealand company making packs that are gentle on the body, while standing up to harsh conditions.
Meet the workhorse of Aarns pack range, the Featherlite Freedom. A durable, mid-volume, Nylon ripstop pack. The hard wearing 100 denier outer, paired with clever lightweight elements make this pack perfect for bashing about in untamed terrain, all while skilfully maintaining its ultralight status.
Featuring generous carrying capacity with a large main compartment, spacious external pockets and the option to add any of Aarn’s iconic Balance Pockets. A beautifully ergonomic dynamic arises when Aarns U-Flow harness system, modular hipbelts and balance pockets are used together. The U-Flow harness system keeps weight off of your shoulders, allowing them to move independently of the pack. Aarn hip belts are interchangeable, meaning you can select the perfect size for you.
Allowing weight to be evenly stacked over the hips, alleviating shoulder strains and pains. Balance pockets allow you to balance your pack weight vertically, reducing the force on your back and shoulders by 30%, all while keeping food and water easily accessible.
The Featherlite Freedom is only available in Small and Medium back lengths. For taller humans Aarn offers the Natural Balance Pro.
If the size configuration you are after is showing out of stock please get in touch. We keep all hip belt sizes in stock and can make up the combination you need.
