Matador Beast18 Ultralight Technical 18L Backpack

Why We Like The Beast18 Ultralight Technical 18L Backpack

The Beast18 Ultralite Backpack was made to get us uphill fast. Matador combined a flexible fit with high denier nylon and a UTS coating for greater durability and comfort that doesn´t tack on excessive weight. And with plenty of spots for our gear in and out, we´ll barely ever have to look for a place to store that extra layer.
