Product Highlights

New for 2008! A women's version of the multiple award-garnering Nimbus Meridian, the Granite Gear Nimbus Meridian Ki women's pack offers rugged and versatile lightweight performance. Weighing well under 4 pounds, the feature-rich Nimbus Meridian Ki Women's pack allows female backpackers to comfortably haul up to 40 pounds.

Why settle for an ill-fitting men's pack when you can have an ultralight pack designed to equip women for outdoor adventure? Attending to the specific needs of female backpackers, Granite Gear Ki packs offer narrower shoulder strap placement and include hipbelts with a higher degree of angle, contoured especially for women.

The Nimbus Meridian Ki Women's pack is available in two torso sizes. The packbag on the Regular torso offers 3800 cubic inches of storage capacity and the Short torso size offers 3400 cubic inches. Lending extreme versatility, a well-designed external compression strap system allows you to securely cinch down gear.

Made of a reinforced composite material, the Topoflex framesheet of the Nimbus Meridian Ki Women's pack is ready-made for heavy hauling. The streamlined, contoured framesheet balances rigid support with flexible response, allowing the Nimbus Meridian Ki Women's pack to move with you while keeping your load balanced and secure. The height of the framesheet can be adjusted to account for varying torso lengths. The lumbar portion of the framesheet functions like a shock-absorbing spring and enhances comfort and performance. A pivoting, cushioned hipbelt helps to further balance the weight of the pack without limiting mobility.

Made of lightweight, durable 210d Cordura and 70d Cordura/Rip-Stop fabrics, the Nimbus Meridian Ki Women's pack offers rugged durability without weighing you down and a fully padded backpanel provides a layer of cushioning and comfort. Adjustable padded shoulder straps, an adjustable sternum strap and load-lifter straps combine to optimize fit.

To guarantee that the Nimbus Meridian Ki Women’s pack fits like a glove, Granite Gear offers swappable gender-specific hipbelts and shoulder harnesses. The Women’s S hipbelt fits waists ranging from 26”-30”, the Women’s M hipbelt fits waists ranging from 30”-34” and the Women’s L hipbelt fits waists ranging from 34”-38”. The appropriate shoulder harness size is based on the girth measurement of your chest. The Women’s S harness fits chest sizes ranging from 27”-34”, the Women’s M harness fits chest sizes ranging from 34”-40”, the Women’s L harness fits chest sizes ranging from 40”-46” and the Women’s XL harness fits chest sizes ranging from 46”-52”.

You can access the Nimbus Meridian Ki Women's pack through the top of the packbag or via a weather-resistant zipper that runs almost the full-length of the front of the pack. These dual access points let you quickly put hands on whatever gear you need. The lid of the Nimbus Meridian Ki Women's pack houses a large storage pocket and can be removed entirely for use as a hip pack for day hiking or summit assaults. Beneath the lid, an extendible spindrift collar protects the interior of the large main compartment of the Nimbus Meridian Ki Women's pack. When you prefer to shed ounces, the collar can serve as a non-traditional lid, rolling down and relying on a drawstring closure and an overlapping buckle strap.

Two large elastic pockets on either side of the Nimbus Meridian Ki Women's pack keep water bottles or other gear close at hand. A built-in tube exit port and a narrow lined internal pocket that accommodates most hydration bladders (not included) make the Nimbus Meridian Ki Women's pack hydration compatible. The bladder pocket includes a convenient bungee cord compression system so reservoirs remain securely in place. The external compression system and reflective daisy-chain attachment points provide numerous places to lash additional gear to the outside of the Nimbus Meridian Ki Women's pack.

The Granite Gear Nimbus Meridian Ki Women's backpack is available in Regular (18"-22") and Short (14"-18") torso lengths.
