The Zulu and Jade replace the ZJ series for 2016, and these streamlined, updated, lightweight packs feature a redesigned, low profile CrossFlo ventilated suspension, improved shoulder harness design, and a new lumbar platform that provides increased comfort in all terrain. Lower profile cargo compartments improve balance while a new front stretch pocket makes it easier to grab and stash gear on the go. Meanwhile, Gregory added new fabrics and reinforcements to increase durability, and they flipped the U zipper main access panel upside down for easier packing and unloading.Call it a daypack if you like, but the Jade 28 is much more. The bridge effect of CrossFlo suspension keeps you cool and dry in all conditions, and features like dual stretch side pockets, dual hipbelt pockets, an integrated raincover, and trekking pole attach points that double as ice axe loops make this lower volume pack capable of anything from ridge running to ice climbing or bike touring.
