KEY FEATURES OF THE DURSTON GEAR WAPTA 30

  • ALUULA GRAFLYTE™ - The only composite fabric with 100% UHMWPE fibres (known by the brand name Dyneema®) for the face fabric. This pack fabric gives greater durability for the weight than all others, while also having a tougher interior waterproof film and enabling advanced construction with heat bonding and laser cutting.

  • WATERPROOF - The Wapta is waterproof for hiking with waterproof ALUULA fabric along with seam taping and heat bonded for the main compartment seams.

  • DURABLE BOTTOM POCKET - The Wapta has the first bottom pocket that avoids low durability stretch mesh and instead uses much more durable ALUULA Graflyte™.

  • REVIEWS

    "Fantastic product, I’m very happy with it."

    "I love love love my new Wapta! Light as a feather and tough as nails, very capable pack."

    "I got mine today, and it exceeds all expectations! It is super comfortable and totally next level. It replaces my 40-liter backpack, and it easily swallows everything I need for six days, including fishing gear and a chair. It's also not as glossy as expected. It is beautiful!"

  • WHAT WE THINK

    What really stands out about this pack for us is the use of the innovative Aluula Graflyte fabric. Given its light weight, the strength and durability of this material are truly impressive.

    The Wapta boasts a spacious main compartment with a roll-top closure, a feature we particularly appreciate on our packs for its convenience.

    The 30-liter capacity is an ideal size for day hikes, daily commuting, or multi-day adventures, especially for those who prioritise a lightweight setup and have a minimal base weight. It's spacious enough to carry essentials without feeling bulky, making it a versatile choice for various outdoor activities.
