Hyperlite Mountain Gear Unbound 55
Why stop with one trail? The pack designed for thru hiking has an even more ambitious sibling.
55L PACK, IDEAL FOR
Long Distance Backpacking & Thru Hiking
Any Environment
Become UNBOUND to go bigger for longer! The UNBOUND 55 expands your capacity for more adventurous trips by adding extra volume to accommodate seasonal clothing and gear changes, or more food and water when resupply points are fewer or farther in-between. There is simply no better way to measure the effectiveness of a pack design than to send it out on thru hikes. Over the course of 2,000+ miles and an average of five to six months, day in, day out, loaded and unloaded, jostled and dragged, and exposed to the elements, one of these long walks is going to tell you the truth. So, that’s what we went after, and the Unbound 55 is the honest to goodness result. Every carefully considered feature fought for its right to remain, leaving only the essentials required for an efficient, comfortable, adaptable, and dependable travel companion. Thru hiking is hard enough. Let the Unbound 55 carry some of the weight.

How to Choose a Pack Size:
Your torso length, not your height, determines your pack size. We recommend the following to determine yours:
1. Tilt your head slightly forward to locate the bony bump at the base of your neck. (This is your 7th cervical (or C7) vertebra).
2. Using a flexible tape measure, have someone measure starting at that spot and running down along the curve of your spine.
3. Place your hands on your hips so you can feel your iliac crest, which serves as the “shelf” of your pelvic girdle. (It’s the first hard thing you feel when you run your fingers down from the sides of your ribcage.) Position your hands so your thumbs are reaching behind you.
4. Have your friend finish measuring at the point where the tape crosses an imaginary line drawn between your thumbs. This distance is your torso length.
o Small (15.0” - 17.0” torso)
o Medium (17.0” - 19.0” torso)
o Large (19.0” - 21.0” torso)
o Tall (21.0”+ torso)
5. If your measurement falls right in between sizes (for example, if you have a 17.0” torso, so you are right on the line between a Small and a Medium), we suggest you choose the larger torso size.
