Zpacks Shoulder Straps
 
These interchangeable, detachable shoulder straps can be attached to all Zpacks backpacks made in late 2024 or later. Just make sure your old straps have clips at the top if retrofitting an existing pack.

These straps include a sternum strap, a pair of tiny oval carabiners to attach them, and a pair of 20" (51 cm) x 1/2" webbing that connects the bottom of the straps to your backpack. Load lifter webbing is also included, and is detachable and not needed with our frameless backpacks.
 
 
Standard Straps
Comfy 2.75" wide contoured shoulder straps made with 3/8" closed cell foam and 3D mesh on the underside for cushion and breathability. The straps have a daisy chain for clipping on items like our popular shoulder pouches, shoulder pouches w/ zipper, water bottle sleeves. An adjustable position sternum strap is included, as well as removable load lifter straps to help pull the backpack in over your shoulders.
