Virga3 26 - Unisex
$143.96
Description

  Granite Gear takes its commitment to making the outdoors a space for every body a step further by reframing the conversation around ultralight backpacking with the Virga3 series. It continues to be of utmost importance to Granite Gear to expand the range of people and bodies that their packs can comfortably and responsibly fit.

  With a fully adjustable torso height and width and the lightest Re-Fit hip belt to-date, Granite Gear invites all to join the ultralight experience with the Virga3 26.

  The Virga3 26 weighs in at just 1.26 lbs (stripped weight: 1.16 lb), made with Robic® High-tenacity nylon (100D and 210D) with Barrier DWR. Part of the way Granite Gear achieves the phenomenally light weights of the Virga3 series packs is by not utilizing a frame sheet, stays, or foams in the back panel. The load itself functions as the pack’s suspension. The nylon shell gains support and rigidity from a sleeping pad— fold up and slide your pad into the interior or simply drop in a rolled pad and let it uncoil to push against the back panel, and pack gear inside the roll.

  The shoulder harness system now takes a nod from the trail running and fastpacking world with two sternum straps for an even hug (fully removable). The Virga3 26 utilizes a removable 25mm webbing waist belt. Other key features are: large dual hip belt pockets with DWR-treated zippers, roll-top main compartment opening with top compression for easy access, and a pair of elastic bottle holders on both shoulder straps.

Footprint sold separately.

Ford Remembers a Bronco Legend With 2025 Stroppe Special Edition
  Some of Fords Bronco special editions feel a little contrived. Sure, stickers are cool, but do they really represent Fords heritage?

Bill Stroppe Helped Form the Bronco...

Lightest Gravel Bike Has Superb Ride Quality: Specialized S-Works Crux Review
  The S-Works Crux stands as the gravel and cyclocross version of Specializeds most technically advanced bike — the Aethos.

2025 Subaru WRX tS First Drive Review: Almost an STI
  The current Subaru WRX debuted in 2022 but hasn’t resonated with buyers as much as previous iterations, and there’s no higher-performance STI variant as in the past. But for 2025, Subaru is adding a version with more performance bits, albeit with the same power as a standard WRX. This isn’t a WRX STI; it’s a WRX tS (“tuned by STI”)....
Algae-Core Skis Are Full of Surprises: WNDR Nocturne 88 Review
  By ignoring obvious warning signs, I found myself staring down 3,000 vertical feet of nasty breakable crust in Colorado’s San Juans last spring. Optimistically hoping for lap after lap of spring corn harvesting, I grabbed one of the skinnier skis I’ve been testing — WNDR’s Nocturne 88.   The descent was downright horrifying. Thankfully, there was a lot more to the...
