The Distance 15 is a hybrid rucksack that builds a bridge between the flat trails in the valley that seamlessly blend into alpine terrain and high alpine adventures.
It combines running-waist technology with our award-winning backpack design, and features an alpine-ready and running carrying system so you'll have the right equipment at the end of the trail when the climber part starts.
The Distance is made from our robust UHMWP 10x Ripstop yarns, which we also use for our Dogbones and Ultralight Camalots.
In terms of weight, this fabric is 10 times stronger than steel, yet lightweight enough to float in the water.
The shoulder strap system is made with seamless edge taping technology.
Banding the edge of the shoulder straps - this is more like today's innovative sportswear than a traditional running backpack, offering more comfort, freedom of movement, and lower weight.
The vest-like system includes two compartments for two small Black Diamond HydraPac hydration pods (sold separately) and a Deploy compartment for storing the Black Diamond Deploy Wind Shell for windy burr crossings or emergencies.

- Two stretch pockets on the front with elastic closure for food
- Deploy compartment for the new Deploy Wind Shell
- Integrated, elastic partition of mesh for crepe cords or water bladder
- Integrated safety pocket with zipper for purse and keys
- Fully watertight main compartment
- Dynex (Nylon 100d + PE 200d) material for extremely high tear resistance - by weight with a 10 times higher strength than steel
- Weight: 394g
- Volume: 15L
