Description:

Shoulder pouches are the perfect accessory to store your camera, wallet, car keys, map, headlamp, chap stick, mittens, sunglasses, candy bars, wrappers, emergency whistle, pack towel, GPS, or any other items you would like to have within easy reach! The pouches carry comfortably on your shoulder, you will hardly notice they are there.

  • These will fit on almost any pack. Two elastic bands hold the pouch securely to your shoulder straps. If your pack has very thick or wide straps you can ask for longer elastic.

    The pouch is also clipped, or safety pinned at the top to prevent it from sliding up or down.
     
  • Bellowed design, and the elastic on the front mesh keeps the pouch snug with almost no shaking even when running or jumping.
     
  • 60 cubic inch main compartment is a good size for items such as a camera. A .5L bottle is also a nice fit and can help counterbalance your pack.

    The lightweight mesh front pocket is handy for tucking small items.
     
  • Draw cord opening is quick and easy for getting at your items.
     
  • The pouches are symmetrical, and can go on either side.
     
  • Stays dry in all but heavy rain. Line it with a zip lock to protect electronics.
     
  • Weighs under 1/3 of an ounce!
     
  • 1 year warranty against defects in materials or workmanship on all ZPacks gear.

"I carried one of these on both my PCT and CDT thru-hikes and loved it. My camera and other items were always right there when I needed them but never in the way."
