PACK SOLD SEPARATELY. Compatible with The Cutaway and The Tiempo.
Compatible with any of Nashville Pack's packs, their hybrid vest straps are designed for a more balanced load transfer and upfront water access. Made from two layers of breathable mesh, they conform to your body while transferring the load uniformly across the shoulders and torso. Six total strap pockets allow for easy access to snacks, small items, and soft flasks or 1L water bottles.
This strap attachment system allows for some adjustability in the length of the straps and the width between them and also makes it possible to replace worn or damaged pieces independently instead of buying a whole new pack.
Includes:
- 2x standard sternum straps ($15 value/pair)
- 1x elastic sternum strap ($5 value)

It's a pack! No, it's a vest! No, it's a glove!
very comfortable, limited volume, obviously. good for fastpacking/trailrunning in mild weather. chose to use it for the torres del paine w route in preference to zpacks nero 38, hyperlite southwest 2400, and hyperlite metro (the closest in volume). biggest negative is lots of dangling strap ends, in particular from the triple straps that hold the top of each shoulder strap. the three sternum straps are fiddly, especially with cold fingers: the hardware is tiny (but light!). but the pack is great for trail dancing: really moves with you, even when you run. i haven't quite dialed in the organization yet. because the triple sternum straps make it a little time consuming to don and doff, would be nice to have even more storage on the straps, e.g., for water filter. straps are set up well for gps, compass, water bottle, trowel, a small snack, etc.

Very nicely done
I bought the 16" vest straps and attached them to the 14" backpack (I'm 4'10") and it's just right. I love how adjustable they are and how well they distribute the load so that it feels like there is nothing on my shoulders. Such a lightweight system and great for a short person. I have a custom made pack by Matt at Red Paw Packs and absolutely love it but this is my second favorite.
Same, same, but not the wait.
Excellent pack by Nashville. If you have your gear dialed, this might be the right pack for you. The cutaway offered on GG s the exact bag that is sold by Nashville. If you don't require a custom color or material set up and don't want to wait the 6 weeks, I recommend this bag. I have taken it out on a few day hikes and a 24 mile over-nighters. Rides well, loads easy, and the customer service was excellent. I think this was my 5th purchase on GG.
