FEATURES

The Catalyst remains our tried and true workhorse of the ULA Pack line.

In 2011 we swapped new materials for both side pockets and the logo panel. The side pockets are now 210 ripstop nylon which is tougher, lighter, and more snag resistant for any rambling adventure. The logo panel is now Cordura - super durable and abrasive resistant.

If you head out on a National Scenic Trail, the chance of running into someone with a Catalyst on their back is pretty high. As such, the Catalyst is a great choice for multi-month treks, winter travels, or for folks transitioning down from monster packs into lighter loads.

And not tooting our own horns, but we’ve heard from some of you that you think the new 2011 Catalyst is one sexy piece of trail gear, too.

Bottom Line? An updated-tougher, lighter, and sexier- tried and true veteran for lightweight and long distance hikers.

SIZING

To accurately measure your torso length for a correct pack fit, grab a buddy and follow the steps below...

1- Standing upright, tilt your chin to your chest. Locate the largest lump on the back of your neck. This is your #7 vertebrae. It should be located close to the base of your neck proper.

2- From the #7 vertebrae, measure (with the flexible tape) down the length and natural curvature of your spine to the crest of your hipbones (iliac crest). This measurement in inches is your torso length.
