3F UL Qi Dian Lightweight Backpacking bag 40+16L
Starting Point Light Mountaineering Bag. 850 Grams. 56 Liters.
Weight: 850g (1.87 lbs) – Less than a liter of water for a full-featured 56L mountaineering pack. This is ultralight engineering at its finest.
Capacity: 40L + 16L expansion = 56L total – Enough volume for multi-day trips, thru-hiking sections, or alpine objectives. Expands when you need it, compresses when you don't.
Dimensions: 80×30×22cm (31.5"×11.8"×8.7") – Tall and slim profile keeps weight close to your body and won't catch on narrow trails or technical terrain.
Piggyback Frame System – Your Pad Becomes the Frame The innovation here: instead of carrying a separate frame, your foam sleeping pad slides into the back panel and becomes the pack's structure. This eliminates 200-300g of frame weight while giving you a comfortable, moisture-wicking carry system. Single herringbone strap secures the pad and increases pack integrity.
Premium components:
- YKK zippers – Smooth, reliable, built to last
- Duraflex buckles – Lightweight, bombproof hardware that won't fail
- 201D nylon fabric with 420D reinforcement – Durable in high-wear areas, ultralight everywhere else
Thoughtful features:
- Thick padded shoulder straps distribute weight comfortably
- Hip belt with dual side pockets for snacks, phone, GPS
- Beveled side pockets for water bottles (grab without taking pack off)
- Four-sided elastic compression for cinching down loads
- External lash points for ice axes, trekking poles, or extra gear
Three colors: Vibrant Orange, Sapphire Blue, Calm Gray
IMPORTANT: Foam sleeping pad sold separately – you'll need one to create the frame system.
By 3F UL Gear – Trusted name in ultralight mountaineering equipment.
