The Redwing is Kelty's most popular daypack for back-country and urban adventures alike. This versatile, internal frame, day-and-a-half pack, has an outstanding reputation for its superior organization, durability, and lightweight construction.

Whether you're cruising city sidewalks, ski touring, snowshoeing, climbing, or hiking, the breathable, padded back panel and shoulder straps keep you cool and comfortable. Stow your gear on the go with ease, using the zippered front compartment. Unlike most packs of its size class, the Redwing does not have a tunnel design, so you don't have to unpack every time you want to find something.

Built to keep heavy loads stable and designed to remain bulk free, the pack boasts side compression straps, a removable Airmesh waistbelt, adjustable and padded shoulder straps, and a sternum strap. The breathable Airmesh waistbelt has stabilizers and a Scherer Cinch, but can be removed and stowed when carrying lighter loads. The pulley-like Scherer Cinch doubles your tightening force, allowing you secure the waist strap without straining. Heavy loads are supported with a single LightBeam aluminum stay that is 30-40 percent stiffer, and half the weight of most standard aluminum stays.

A front zippered pocket keeps small items secure while an organizer and side pockets allow for easy access to small essentials while a fleece-lined optics pocket will keep your glasses from getting scratched. This hydration-compatible pack has two expandable mesh water bottle pockets and an interior hydration pocket and tube port for use with most hydration systems. The pack is constructed of durable, abrasion-resistant nylon micro ripstop and reinforced with nylon Kodra. Strap extra gear to the outside, with the ice axe loops and daisy chain lash tabs. In terms of gear access and layout, suspension, and overall toughness, the Kelty Redwing is a great choice for any spontaneous adventure.

Customer Reviews

This Bag is great!

This bag is great! I have used it for business travel and outdoor use. This bag can easily carry enough clothes for a 5-6 day trip. It easily fits in most airlines overhead compartments and if not stuffed to capacity will fit under the seats as well. The compression straps make even a small load feel secure. This bag is also great for a "light" camping trip. Shoulder straps and waistbelt are comfortable and adjustable. Has set up for a hydration system, but does not come with it.
