Gregory Ekko Weekend Backpack
By Editor | June 7, 2009
The Gregory Ekko weekender backpack has a load -carrying system designed to answer the age-old question of how to carry a heavy load in the mountains without feeling like you’re strapped into a straitjacket. The key is a Y-shaped plastic frame sheet that’s stiff enough to transfer weight to the hipbelt but flexible enough to allow your upper body to twist naturally. Access to stuff in the Gregory Ekko is from the top or a double-zippered access flap that runs the length of the pack’s front.
Keep in mind, the Ekko volume is small which means this pack is better suited to gear- intensive day trips or light-packing overnighters.
The Gregroy Ekko weekend pack is best suited to Climbers and scramblers who need a pack that can schlep serious gear without restricting movement.
