Kelty brand is famous for its packs and here you have the list of best rated Kelty backpacks on Amazon both for men and for women with some ingenious features.
Kelty is one of just a few top brands that build gender-specific hiking packs, so here you have packs for men and for women. The same holds for Gregory, Osprey, and Deuter, and these links show the packs for women but we also have separate links for men.
Such gender-specific packs for men and women have a different torso range, a different distance between the shoulder straps, they also have differently shaped hip belt structure and padding, colors are usually different, etc.
One particular feature which I like in Kelty’s packs is that most of them have side zippered pockets, and you will see many here in the list with this. Some even have pass-through pockets that are behind these side pockets. Here you can pass your trekking poles and store them in the lover side pockets.
The list includes classic packs with lid and collar underneath it, and also panel-type packs with a long zipper that runs along the top and the sides. These panel-type packs are usually without the bottom compartment. This is because of such a huge zippered opening so you do not need yet another entry point.
There are packs here with what Kelty calls Perfect Fit suspension. So this is something unique to Kelty and this means that you can adjust the torso length when the pack is on your back. This is easily done with two straps that you have on the two sides. This is also the best way to adjust the torso length because you can feel the pack on your body and dial your perfect fit.
Kelty is also one of just a few brands that still builds external frame packs. Those are the best for extremely heavy loads.
One great example of Kelty’s packs you can see in this video which shows a women-specific pack, please have a look:
If you are not familiar with Kelty, then you should know that it is hard to find another top brand which would match such a price/features combination which you have in Kelty’s packs. In general, they build affordable but quality packs and quite a number of them are with unique features.
The list below includes Amazon best-selling packs of this brand. You will notice that some of them are on sale, and most of them are Amazon Prime items. So you can have them shipped for free.
The list is dynamic and new items will be added from time to time. This all depends on what is becoming best-selling on Amazon. So bookmark this text and check when you find the time.
