The Black Diamond Distance 8 Backpack is the perfect companion for your outdoor adventures. It combines the functionality of an alpine-worthy daypack with the comfort of shoulder straps designed for running. With its innovative features, this backpack is a game-changer.

One of the standout features is the pockets specifically sized for HydraPak's 500ml SoftFlasks. These pockets ensure easy access to hydration throughout your activities. Additionally, the backpack includes two smaller pockets for storing nutrition items and another pocket specifically designed to fit Black Diamond's lightest wind shell, the Deploy Wind Shell Jacket.

When it comes to comfort, the shoulder straps incorporate Black Diamond's stitch-less Edge Taping Technology. This not only eliminates chafing but also promotes ventilation, ensuring a comfortable fit throughout your journey. The BD Dry back panel further enhances ventilation, moisture-wicking, and quick-drying properties.

Black Diamond has spared no expense in terms of durability. The main compartment of the backpack is constructed using Dynex, the same material used for Black Diamond's Ultralight Camalots. This material provides superior durability without adding unnecessary weight to your load. Furthermore, the main compartment is durably water-resistant, offering protection for your gear in any weather conditions.
