CiloGear designed the 45L WorkSack in conjunction with feedback from our high end alpine climbing testers like Kelly Cordes and Maxime Turgeon. They wanted a stripped down alpine pack, and we delivered...check out this review over on Mountainproject.com.

For you crazy guys and gals, you've got a slightly smaller pack to control your packing, a trimmer profile and weight allowance for 4 more Gu's in your pack. The rest of us can be glad that the pack constrains our proclivity to try to carry that kitchen sink. Smaller folk find that 45 liters is about as much as they want to have on their backs.
This is the same size and design that Kelly Cordes used to climb his link up on Cerro Torre with superman stand-in Colin Haley. The 45L WorkSack lends itself to unsupported expeditions in Patagonia or AT hikes using weekly resupplies.
The flat front panel of the pack means that the 45L WorkSack excels at diagonal carrying skiis.
75 liters fully extended with a bloated extension. 45 liters normal capacity. 37 liters with one side closed. 22 liters with both sides closed. Or compress part: you determine the volume.
