Our ultralight zippered stowage solution. They are much more accessible than a stuffsack and, because of their shape, they tend to fit well into your pack. The “bath tub” construction leaves no seams to leak when they are set on the wet earth or in the bottom of a kayak for that matter. The perfect packing system for clothes and food.
Cordura Sil-Nylon body Up until now Cordura was only available in the familiar 500 dernier or 1000 dernier. Dupont recently changed that and is now using their proprietary High Tenacity nylon yarns in many innovative new ways. High Tenacity yarns are stretched as they are made, making them much stronger than regular nylon.
Granite Gear worked closely with Dupont to develop this fabric for the Air-Line series of ultralight packing systems. The result is a 1.1oz Sil-Nylon ripstop fabric with the strength of a much heavier fabric.
Fitted with water resistant YKK zips - the zip is coated wwith a waterproof tape to keep water from wicking into the sack. The teeth are turned to the inside of the sack to protect them from the elements. They're not completely waterproof, but they keep out almost all moisture.
Fully Finished Seams Details, details - you won't find any raw edges or sloppy stitching - guaranteed.
Our Verdict
Can't work out why this idea hasn't been used before, so much better for bits and bobs, spare clothing or food than your traditional stuffsack.
Ultralight and portable.
Airspace has been rebranded Zippsack, identical product but now without the plastic container - replaced by an even more useful zip mesh pouch.
