Easy-to-carry Medium Size Backpack Made of X-Pac VX21, the THREE is our medium size backpack designed for hard and rugged use. We’ve designed the back to comfortably hold up to about 10kg of gear carried mostly on your back. That’s why the THREE only comes with a simple webbing hip belt. Choose from three types of large capacity front pockets to match your needs.

In general, we recommend the larger L size if you are over 175cm tall, but as all people are different we recommend you try out the two different sizes before you buy if at all possible. Three Types of Large Front Pockets The large front pockets are available in Standard, Mesh, and Zip, each serving a different purpose. The pocket is large enough to store a tent, groundsheet, rainwear, etc. with plenty of room to spare. The front pocket is placed in the middle to stabilize the load balance even when the pocket is full of heavy items, allowing the backpack to sit on your hip bones comfortably. STANDARD MESH ZIP The standard pocket is widely gusseted and made of the same X-Pac material as the main body. The top of the pocket is not lidded, but highly water resistant X-Pac allows for carefree use in light rain. Our high volume, wide gusseted pocket made from hard mesh. With mesh, nothing is hidden so you can easily locate what you need. A small tent or rainwear can also be stowed in the mesh pocket even when still wet. Mesh pockets are popular among ultralight-oriented hikers, but in Japan with much rainfall, you will either love it or hate it, depending on your style. We use the same waterproof zipper pocket as on the Yamatomichi MINI. The capacity of the pocket is slightly smaller than that of the Standard or Mesh pocket. The advantage of the zipper pocket made of X-Pac is the water resistance; keeping your stuff dry when raining. In particular we recommend this type of pocket for snow hikers and backcountry skiers.
