Introduction
Upgrade your backpack
If you’re worried your backpack might be just a little too small for your next hike, this add-on stuff sack could be the solution.
On a long trail, use it to carry bulky food. On rainy days, stash a wet tent or groundsheet inside. In winter, when gear tends to pile up, it gives you extra space without compromise.
The daisy chain design secures easily to your pack’s top strap, while the Ultra TX50 fabric offers an ultralight balance of durability and waterproof protection. With the Stuff Sack XL, your packing possibilities expand even further.
Features
- Highly water-resistant and durable X-Pac fabric
- Daisy chain for secure attachment to your backpack
- Inner drawstring flap helps keep out water and dust
Why a Special Offer?
The Stuff Pack XL now features a new fabric and an updated drawstring design for 2025.
The previous model is still in perfect condition — available at 20% off while supplies last.
Product story
In 2012, I was hiking in New Zealand for over one month and testing the MINI. During that hike, I used the first prototype of the Stuff Pack XL to add some extra capacity to my MINI.
When my MINI was slightly too small but the framed ONE was a little too big, I attached this Stuff Pack to the MINI for additional capacity. (THREE was not yet released at this time.)
The added capacity was, of course, great, but I also noticed other advantages of the water-resistant and externally-attachable Stuff Pack: I was able to stow my wet tent, tarp, and groundsheet in the Stuff Pack XL after packing everything else under the tent or tarp, allowing me a smooth departure from the campsite without the inside of my MINI being soaked. Also, it was perfect to keep dirty clothes or a wet towel separated from other items after taking a dip in a hot spring.
Initially, the Stuff Pack XL was made solely for our staff, but we had many inquiries from customers who wanted to buy it and I also noticed that there were no products like this in the same category with a 9-liter capacity, that could be easily strapped on the top of a UL lidless backpack so we decided to add this to our regular lineup.
Form and function
Secure attachment
Side daisy chains allow secure attachment to the top, sides, or bottom of a pack with straps.
Daisy chain can accommodate buckles up to 25mm (the nylon tape shown is 15mm).
The inner flap uses 70D PU-coated ripstop nylon, offering some water resistance but not complete waterproofing.
What to pack
Use the Stuff Pack XL to store extra food, spare clothing, rainwear, or even a tent.
One of our favorite ways to use it is for packing away a wet tent. Pack most of your gear, throw on your rainwear, and stash the tent in the Stuff Pack XL last.
