Light is the beginning of freedom
1998
Engineer father Glen Van Peski is dissatisfied with the bulky equipment on the market
Inspired by Ray Jardine's' The PCT Hiker's Handbook '
I personally sewed the first lightweight backpack G1 for my son's scout hiking
.
Starting from G1, then G2, G3, G4
The launch of this model gave birth to Gossamer Gear
Leading the lightweight backpacking movement for 20 years
.
G4-20: A classic spanning 20 generations
It is not only a backpack, but also a living fossil of lightweight history
The first G4 once drove countless backpackers crazy
The G4, 20 years later, incorporates classic elements from the original version
And incorporate a range of new fabrics and materials
Create this minimalist multi-functional frameless lightweight backpack G4-20
.
Listed as the Best Backpack on Thetrek for 24 Years
The best budget friendly ultralight backpack on Thru Hiking's list
It achieves a good balance between comfort, features, and ultra lightweight
.
If you want to hike longer distances while reducing physical burden
G4-20 would be a great choice
Weighing only 627 (S size), less than one-third of the weight of a traditional backpack, it can carry a weight of 22 pounds without any pressure
Specially designed for ultra light backpackers, long-distance hikers, and weekend enthusiasts
Each fastener, zipper, and rope is carefully designed to ensure lightweight functionality
Comfortable load capacity of 22.6 pounds, maximum load capacity of 27.2 pounds
Simple and comfortable, it is the ideal choice for fast and light hiking
Especially suitable for setting off with sophisticated ultra light equipment
.
🌼 Features:
42 Gold Capacity
Expandable top with multiple top sealing options
waterproof zipper
Detachable, soft Sit back pad
Fixed waistband with unique pocket design
Six pocket configuration
Durable recycled 70D&100D nylon fabric (excluding PFAS)
.
🌱 To you who understand it:
G4-20 is not an all-around warrior
Frameless design means you need to pack more "smartly" (basic weight is key!)
But it is a love letter dedicated to minimalists and lightweight believers
It carries the original dream of founder Glen and embodies Gossamer Gear's 20-year persistence
——Subtracting unnecessary weight is the key to getting closer to the essence of the wilderness
.
❤️ If you are:
Lightweight players who pursue the pursuit of "Ke Ke Suan"
Mountain experts who travel light and fast on weekends
Brave people who yearn for long-distance hiking
Infatuated with the integration of classic design and modern technology in equipment control
Pioneer of sustainable outdoor environmental protection
So, G4-20 is worth carrying on your back
