Designed where multisport was born. The MacPac Amp Race 40 backpack has been refined for many years. It is ultra comfortable and durable to withstand the rough terrain and conditions that are in New Zealand.
Trusted by the world's top adventure racing teams in extreme conditions. Macpac's legendary load-carrying comfort and durability offers best in class comfort, durability and large hip belt pockets. It also has several other features that are crucial for adventure racing such as: side pockets that are accessible on the go and tighten with one hand, shoulder holsters for water bottles, large rear mesh pocket, sternum strap buckle that has a built in whistle and hip belt pockets large enough for energy food, compass and more.
The MacPac suspension system allows weight to be distributed evenly over the shoulders and hips. It also allows you to shift more weight on either the shoulders or hips for increased comfort.
Side compression straps and an X-Cord system enable you to adjust the volume to perfectly fit the contents of your pack. The lid has two zippered pockets and locks down with twin buckles for quick access to the main compartment. The internal bladder sleeve is large enough for a 128 ounce bladder.
Air mesh back panel and hip belt allow ventilation and wicking. Foam and plastic removeable back panel keep items from poking into you and doubles as a sleeping pad. Two quick attachment points enable you to strap a mountaineering axe or trekking poles to the rear of the pack. One large zippered pocket on the back of the pack provides quick access to items such as rain wear or first aid kits.
The sternum strap is adjustable up or down 3 inches to where it is most comfortable for you.

New Titan Grid™ Fabric
Helium™ Harness The Benefits: Enables you to carry a light load up to 22 lbs (10kg) in comfort. Provides groundbreaking load carrying comfort combined with low weight. Enables you to move efficiently, quickly and with high speed when engaged in highly mobile activities. AirMesh™ fabric on the harness works by wicking perspiration away from your skin. This keeps you drier and more comfortable when you are working hard or in hot conditions. AirMesh™ fabric also provides valuable padding from your load.
Back panel: A specially lightened high-density polyethylene (HDPE) framesheet transfers weight from the shoulders to the hip region while still providing resistance to kinking.
Hipbelt: The lightweight, flexible padded hipbelt with hip-fin contours to your body to improve comfort. A double adjusting hipbelt buckle tightens to give a precise fit while an integrated mesh pocket on the hip belt ensures essentials are kept close at hand
Titan Grid™ Fabric Lightweight and durable Titan Grid™ fabric is a 100d high tenacity nylon. The silicon outer coating and PU inner coating add weatherproofness and at only 116g/m2 it is ideal for applications where conserving weight is critical. Compared to similar weight fabrics Titan Grid™ offers improved durability as the grid structure and raised fibres enhance its ability to absorb abrasion.
