FEATURES

The CDT continues to be a proven backpack, suitable for thru-hikes, dayhikes, and any distance backcountry forays. The current CDT continues the tradition of being a reliable, lightweight, durable backcountry companion.

Contoured shoulder straps and a re-designed hipbelt result in a comfortable carry, while (5) external pockets aid in easily accessed on-trail organization.

Bottom Line? A comfortable, durable, highly functional ruck.

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.

Small: 15"-18"
Medium: 18"-21"
Large: 21"-24"

Medium: Less than or equal to 35"
Large: Greater than 35"
