Gregory Focal 48 - Backpack for longer tours
The Focal 48 is more comfortable to wear than almost any other backpack - thanks to the fully ventilated, dynamic FreeFloat hip belt. With easy-access zippered pockets on the hip belt and odor-resistant mesh material, this backpack is ideal for longer tours.
Highlights of the Gregory Focal 48 backpack
- FreeFloatCarrying System: The mesh back provides optimal ventilation and Gregory's patented FreeFloat system with ComfortCradle creates superior carrying comfort through individual adjustability.
- Recycled, ventilated, comfortable: Continuous air circulation and super-light, extremely durable recycled fibers combine in this backpack to create the ultimate lightweight for long distances.
- Polygiene® Stays Fresh: The well-ventilated back has been treated with Polygiene® Stays Fresh. The growth of odor-causing bacteria is inhibited and the carrying system stays fresh longer.
