What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"This pack is an ideal choice for long-distance treks, offering a balance of comfort, durability, and thoughtful storage. The V-TRAX™ carry system ensures a stable fit while the adjustable back length allows for a customized feel. The extendable lid and multiple access points make it easy to organize gear, while the rain cover provides extra protection in unpredictable weather."

When covering serious ground, we need a pack that supports us every step of the way. The Exion 55 ND Backpack is designed for long-haul comfort, whether trekking through remote landscapes or hopping between alpine huts. Built with Rab’s V-TRAX™ carry system, it offers an ergonomic, wraparound fit that stabilizes the load and keeps us moving smoothly over technical terrain. The thermoformed harness and dual-density foam provide plush cushioning, ensuring comfort even under heavy loads.

Designed with organization in mind, the Exion 55 ND features an extendable lid for added capacity, a U-shaped front zip for quick gear access, and a divided main compartment for easy organization. Pockets on the hipbelt and harness keep small essentials close, while stretch side pockets stash water bottles or an extra layer. When the weather turns, the included rain cover keeps everything dry. Optimized for those with a smaller frame, this pack is our go-to for ambitious multi-day treks where efficiency and comfort are key.
