Kelty has been in the outdoors game for a while, in fact, the company is celebrating their 60th anniversary this season. To celebrate the milestone, they are rolling out a lineup of throwback packs which were shown off at the 2011 Outdoor Retailer Summer Market.
The bags are pure classic, complete with fatty metal zippers and old school styling. You probably won’t be using these bags to summit any peaks- these are more for claiming street cred during your daily commute. The lineup will be a limited release run in 2012, so keep your eyes on the shelves where Kelty is sold to claim yours.
If you’re looking for function, Kelty has you covered there, too. The company is known as a middle of the road brand: price friendly with simple functions that can be appreciated by adventurers of every skill level. Well, they’ve stepped their game up with their new line of Impact packs.
The Impacts are built with frame bars designed to transfer heavy loads to the hips and move with your body on the trail. They also feature a venting system that is sure to keep you dry while putting down miles on the trail. They’ll be hitting stores in time to get outfitted for your fall desert trips.
