SUMMIT Fifth Wheel

Alpine expeditions, surf trips, even car camping - a duffel usually makes the list. Tough 1000D Cordura + Balistics can take the in-flight beating, and its square shape stacks well in a vehicle.

TOTEPACK MARKET

You know that bag you have with 20 pockets in it? You could feel that chap stick tube in there somewhere, But where? Forget playing Tetris with your stuff and get real – our new ultra simple Tote will make finding that lip saver a breeze.

For those of you who don’t get to enjoy 365 days of sunshine – rain, snow, sleet, groppel and hail are a reality. So next time you head out to a friend’s barbeque and forget that its springtime in the Rock-ies – when it can hail golf balls without notice - fear not socialite, this tote has a lid.

DAY

Hiking is in our blood, and in ’75, the KletterDay was used by every kid in Boz-eman to trek to school – in knee deep snow, uphill both ways.

We’re coining the term “Hand-pack” because that’s exactly what this is. A pack, for your hand. An iPad doesn’t need shoulder straps and a waist belt to be carried around with – so why complicate things. The smartest way to organize your daily carry since, well, when you didn’t have to carry any-thing.

Maybe you’re not the kind of person who carries a ton of stuff everywhere you go, but you’re tired of having a wallet, phone, keys and some earbuds in your pockets. Believe us, we are too. Seinfeld did it, so can you.

NOBEL LXLife can be hard to keep track of, then you lose your keys. Not anymore. Roll out the door with the All New Nobel LX - fit to carry what YOU need for the day. Larger than the original Nobel, this lifesav-er holds an iPad, wallet, sunglasses case, phone, notepad, earbuds, char-ger, and yeah, keys.

HIP FLIP

It’s a fanny pack, we all know deep down we want a fanny pack. Athletes worn them, Dads wore them; your artsy older brother wore them. Time to break free of the bad rap Fanny Pack, because in reality, it’s probably the most functional bag ever made.

KONKER

Totes are cool. But what are you going to do with your phone when you go take a dip? Just throw it in the bottom? Even gorilla glass can’t take a sand beating like that. Be kind to your tech toys and put them in a pocket, because Instagram won’t wait for you to get a new phone.

ROCKKIT

We’re an old climbing company, been do-ing it for 35 years. Back then, climbers didn’t have gore-tex, carbon fiber axes, or Julbos. They had wooden axes and wool. And they climbed harder mountains than most people would ever dream of. And some of them…. Had a Rock Pack.

Can 1 pouch have too many uses? Not in our opinion. The Kit quadruples as a photographers lens or camera body case, traveler’s toiletry bag, a DJ’s music stor-age, or outdoorsman’s electronics kit. It’s tough, it’s padded, but sure, it could hold makeup.

QUEST WESTON

The original runner’s pack, designed to handle the famous Bridger Ridge Run Marathon held every summer in Boze-man. That’s right, a marathon at 8,000 feet.]

We tend to carry tablets more than lap-tops these days, but still find the need for a bag that can handle a computer when needed. It’s a messenger bag that won’t make you look like you don’t have a home. Also makes a perfect gym bag.

WIRECords tend to get in the way. They tangle up your clothes, your toothbrush, your sunglass-es. How much time has been wasted untangling chargers in a lifetime? Well, we’re now in the time saving business. Keep your cords tidy and get back to smashing life the way YOU in-tend to. Fisherman? Just so happens it fits a reel perfectly.

TUBE

Junk Drawer. We all have one. Two, maybe. But what about on the road? Or in the mountains? No matter WHAT, we all end up with superfluous stuff that we have NO IDEA where to put it. Problem solved. Traveler? A per-fect little dopp kit.

FLATBAGSAnytime a new employee gets hired at the factory, they must go through sew-ing training. Then they graduate and move on to their specialty. Their Flat Bag, holds their scissors, tape measure, seam ripper and pencils. Not a sewer? We’re sure you have some-thing you wish had a little pouch to carry it around in…
