Description

  

Big enough for an overnight, light enough for a day hike

The Zulu 45 uses a dynamic FreeFloat suspension, providing comfort in all environments. With an athletic look, full adjustability, and refined materials, we straddled the line between a daypack and overnighter.

  Precise Fit Adjustable Torso

  With the ability to fit exactly to your back the adjustable torso length provides 3.5” of adjustment allowing for a custom fit without compromising support.

  Open-air Backpanel

  Full-length tensioned mesh creates space between your back and the pack to allow for heat to escape and air to flow freely to cool you down.

  Freefloat Dynamic Hipbelt

  Gregory’s patented construction links the hipbelt to the frame with a panel designed to move and flex with your body. The hipbelt design conforms to the shape of your body, seamlessly providing the padding and support needed to carry heavy loads.

  Breathable Shoulder Harness

  Constructed from Lifespan foam to provide a generations worth of comfort, the harnesses are perforated to maximize airflow and comfort on the trail

  Perimeter Frame

  Designed around the architectural principles of tension and compression, the perimeter frame provides stable, yet flexible support to comfortably carry the load on your back.

No Manual, But Still Driver Focused: 2026 Honda Prelude First Drive Review
  Twenty-five years is a long time to wait, but that’s how long it’s taken for Honda to finallybring back the once-iconic Prelude.
