"The zipper up the middle of the outside pocket makes access to interior during breaks easy. Best of all, no low back pain with this pack."

Nola - Shadowlight Backpack

"Temperature range started in the low 60s and fell to 34 during the night and early morning. The Zulu worked great with just a light mid layer! It definitely has earned the spot as my go to jacket!"
