Granite Gear Says: Granite Gear has been building
packs specific to the needs of long distance hikers since
2003 when we introduced the award winning Vapor Trail and
Nimbus Ozone, winning Backpacker’s coveted Editor’s Choice
award, as well as the respect of the long distance hiking
community. Our objective has stayed the same! Develop and
build packs that are as light as possible while still
offering optimal comfort, suspension, compression and
exceptional durability.
Like its predecessors, The Blaze AC 60 is Spartan in
its simplicity and features our engineered AirCurrent
suspension. The AirCurrent suspension consists of a
3-dimensionally molded alloyed frame, our quickest
torso length adjustment system, padded shoulder straps,
and a swappable hip belt for a custom fit. The AC frame
has molded air channels, works in conjunction with a
molded foam pad and durable stretch mesh to aid in
venting heat and moisture away from the back; allowing
for natural evaporative cooling. The pack body is a
simple, lidless top loader with a tall spindrift
opening that can be cinched and rolled down tight for
weather resistance and also expanded when extra space is
needed. The arched Line-Loc compression system allows
the load to be cinched tight in every direction (side,
front, and top) as well as allowing additional gear to
be lashed to the pack. The Line-Loc cord can easily be
replaced if it wears out from extended use. Durable and
versatile stretch mesh pockets on the bottom of the pack
sides work well for water bottles, while the tall front
center pocket is great for damp tarps or ultralight
tents.
