About this product

The Curlew is the Swift pack for a week or more on a long trail with a base weight under 8kg. It carries up to 15kg on a single carbon fibre hoop and a ventilated foam back, and weighs 1.12kg in M/L.

A roll top with a Y-strap over it closes the main body, and the big stretch front pocket takes a tent fly that is still wet from the morning. Our Trail Panel took the samples on the Pennine Way and the West Highland Way through summer 2026.

  • Weighs 1.12kg in size M/L
  • Roll top with a Y-strap over the top

    Northern half of the Pennine Way

    Carried it from Horton to Kirk Yetholm as a Trail Panel tester. 12kg felt easy and I never had a sore shoulder.
