[H3] Zpacks Deluxe Camp Shoes
$39.95

Weight
2.5 oz (71 g)

The Zpacks Deluxe Camp Shoes are built for hikers and backpackers who want a little extra comfort and security once the miles are done for the day. These closed-heel camp shoes give your feet a lightweight, protective layer while still allowing them to breathe after long days on trail.
A 5mm foam sole helps cushion your feet from rocks, roots, and uneven ground around camp, while the optional insole add-on doubles the protection if you want a more slipper-like feel. The closed heel offers a secure fit and keeps crud out, making them ideal for moving around camp, late-night privy trips, hostel stays, and post-hike recovery.
Compact, collapsible, and easy to pack, the Deluxe Camp Shoes can be worn with or without socks and tucked into almost any backpack pocket when not in use. They offer a lightweight alternative to clunky sandals or waterlogged trail runners, so you can give your feet a break without adding unnecessary bulk to your pack.An Ultralight Strap-Back Camp Shoe is also available, good for draining water and showering.
These shoes are meant to be worn for short distances around camp. NOT intended for hiking.

The Zpacks Travel & Trail Hiking Pants are built for people who live out of one pack and expect every piece of gear to earn its place. Designed for and by long-distance backpackers, they deliver the all-day comfort, mobility, and trail-tested functionality needed for months on trail, while offering the streamlined versatility minimalist travelers want for flights, city walking, and fast-moving itineraries.
Whether you are heading out for a Pacific Crest Trail thru-hike or packing a single bag for a week of travel, these are the pants you will keep reaching for. The Japanese Toray Dot Air™ Primeflex™ ripstop fabric features micro-perforations to boost airflow and speed drying, giving you breathable performance in hot weather and quick recovery after washing on the go. The stretch fabric feels relaxed and easy like your favorite lounge pants, making long flights, train rides, hostel stays, and trail days equally comfortable.
Every detail is tuned for efficient living on the move. A lightly elastic waist with a drawcord provides a clean, low-bulk fit across a range of waist sizes without needing a belt. Discreet zippered side pockets are sized for everyday essentials like a smartphone, passport, or wallet, and positioned for easy access, whether you are walking through an airport or sitting for hours in transit. All six pockets, including the hand, back, and side pockets, are mesh-lined to drain water, dry quickly, and stay ready for wherever the next leg of the trip takes you. Convertible Travel & Trail Hiking Pants are also available.

[H3] Duplex Classic Tent
$749.00

Weight
17.8 oz (504 g)

How could you not like this? It’s lighter than plenty of one person shelters, but it’s a palace for one, and easily sleeps two. Setup is easy and it’s overall designed well.  I don’t think I’ve met any user on the AT so far who doesn’t like their Duplex.
– Conor C., ★★★★★
The Duplex Classic tent will allow you to push your limits and hike greater distances; whether losing yourself in the beauty of the Pacific Crest Trail, or weathering an afternoon storm in the Swiss Alps.
Specifically designed for the demands of long distance backpacking with a no frills, no fuss mindset, the award-winning Duplex hits the sweet spot when it comes to size, weight, and features. The Duplex was voted the most popular ultralight tent by Appalachian Trail thru-hikers two years in a row.
The Duplex is lightweight, roomy, well-ventilated, packs down small, pitches easily, and can be set up in the tightest of spaces. You won’t find a lighter functional two person tent anywhere on the market.
More weight conscious hikers and solo adventurers may want to check our our smaller Duplex Lite model, or add all the bells and whistles and extra space with the Duplex Pro.

[H2] Duplex Classic Tent

The thru-hikers choice!
From the Appalachian Trail to the Annapurna Circuit, the Duplex has proven itself to be the go to ultralight shelter for adventurers around the world.
With a spacious interior and an almost unbelievable weight, the Duplex is our most popular tent.

[H3] Hexamid Tent
$499.00

Weight
9.7 oz (275 g)

The Hexamid tent is back, and updated for our 20th anniversary! The Hexamid is made for hikers who would rather sleep under the stars. The updated design features a floorless screen perimeter which must be combined with an optional bathtub groundsheet or a bivy. This is ideal for dry environments such as the Pacific Crest Trail where most nights you can sleep under the stars with your groundsheet alone, and only sometimes need rain and bug protection. Originally tested by Zpacks' founder, Joe Valesko, on his 2009 Continental Divide Trail thru-hike, this ultralight six sided pyramid style shelter protected him all the way from Canada to Mexico; withstanding blizzards in the San Juans, the exposure of the Wind River Range, and the solitude of the New Mexican desert.

$319.00

Weight

Our Summer Quilt is designed with just the right amount of warmth for summer nights when the forecast is above freezing. This bag is so light, and packs down so small it can easily be tucked in your day pack just in case, or achieve an unbeatable base weight on longer summer trips.Combine this quilt with our Zpacks Down Jacket and an Octa Fleece Hat to boost the warmth even further when needed.The summer quilt closes with a snap at the center and at the neck for easy venting on hot nights. Shock cord can be cinched at the neck to seal out drafts. The Summer Quilt is also compatible with our Sleeping Pad Quilt Strap (sold separately) which allows you to snap it to your sleeping pad to keep it tucked and in place.When sub-freezing weather rolls around the Summer Quilt springs back into action as a Winter Liner. It works well as an additional layer to push the limits of your three season sleeping bag further into the colder seasons. It fits well inside any of our bottom zipper or side zipper sleeping bags, quilts, and mummy bags.If you can only own two sleeping bags, combine one of our 20F (2.5" loft) bags and a 40F (1.25" loft) Summer Quilt / Winter Liner to keep you comfortable nearly year-round by layering as needed.
A Zpacks Slim DCF Roll Top Dry Bag is included! A $30+ value!
