Backpacks^GO LITE / On 23L Backpack

GO LITE
Established in 1998 in Boulder, Colorado, Go LITE was born from a simple concept: “If the gear is lighter, hiking is more enjoyable.” As a pioneer of the “ultralight” backpacking style, Go LITE revolutionized minimal hiking. Though the brand took a hiatus in 2014, it made a comeback in Spring/Summer 2024 with a fresh rebranding. 

Lightweight and durable waterproof fabric
The fabric uses the innovative “UltraGrid” material from Challenge Sailcloth in the U.S.

Made from Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene fibers in a ripstop weave, the material is lightweight yet offers exceptional abrasion resistance and waterproof performance, ensuring high durability.

With a 23-liter capacity, it’s the ideal size for travel, trail hiking, mountain climbing, commuting, or gym use. For general travel, a 20-30 liter bag is typically recommended for 2-3 night trips.

The main compartment features a water-repellent YKK zipper. The U-shaped opening ensures easy packing and excellent visibility inside.

The interior is equipped with one deep open pocket for added convenience.

Comfortable to carry
The shoulder straps are padded with a thin layer, designed with a balance of capacity and weight in mind to achieve the perfect thickness.

The wide straps help distribute the load evenly, and the inner side is lined with breathable mesh material to reduce moisture buildup.

Equipped with a chest strap to prevent the bag from slipping off the shoulders, ensuring comfortable movement. Additionally, the slider buckle features a built-in whistle function.

Inside, a removable back panel offers added comfort for carrying and gives peace of mind for those less confident in packing efficiently.

The top includes a hook strap for keys and a hole to thread a hydration tube through.

With its perfect capacity and simple design, this backpack is versatile enough for urban use, hiking, or travel, making it a go-to item for various occasions.
