Hyperlite Mountain Gear
Windrider 55
$379.00 - $399.00
Description

　　The Hyperlite Mountain Gear Windrider 55 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 top can roll down enough to make the overall size of the pack similar to the Windrider 40, but that additional space can come in pretty handy when you need it.

　　Formerly known as the 3400 Windrider. Packaging may have either name but the product is identical.

Footprint sold separately.

After a number of internal studies, Hyperlite has decided to remove the metal grommets from the weep holes of their packs. This product may ship with or without the grommet as they are phased out from Hyperlite's inventory.
The grommets were not an essential feature to the weep holes of the pack. Hyperlite has determined there is no physical function of these grommets and they have been merely for aesthetic purposes. Their design and production team has developed a consistent method of precision drilling the holes in the fabric. The heat generated from the friction from this process will seal the edges of the weep holes and eliminate the chance of the fabric fraying. This will now make the holes just as strong as when constructed with grommets.

Fan-Favorite Backcountry Kit Goes Soft: Lofoten Flex1 Jacket and Pants Review
