One Planet Toolangi

Overview

The Toolangi is a part of our ‘practical lightweight’ range, a top-loader that deftly balances functionality, durability and weight. It’s earned its home among the gum trees with a comfortable EXACT FIT harness (sizes and fits for men and women), a decent 70 litre capacity (medium), and tough Diamondloc fabric. We haven’t skimped on classic ONE PLANET design and features: there’s reinforcing in high-wear areas, a generous front pocket, streamlined gear attachment and floating lid, with add-ons to increase options and versatility.

Exact Fit Harness
The EXACT FIT harness is the go-to for multi-day bushwalking, comfortably carrying ten to 30 kilograms. Endorsed by the Australian Chiropractors Association, it’s available in four standard sizes for males and four standard sizes for females, allowing an exact fit for your physique. Grippy air mesh improves both ventilation and pack-to-body adherence for enjoyable bushwalking. An industry benchmark, it is designed for comfortable and healthy load carrying, and is the ideal choice for on- and off-track adventures.

Harness Construction
A good harness is the foundation of every rucksack: when you load up and head off you’ll agree! Our laminated three-layer foam delivers solid support, plush comfort and a breathable contact area, with protective treatment against bacteria and rot. Our hardened aluminium frames are hand-bent, strong and light for efficiently transferring load to the lumbar pad, with channelling to increase rigidity. The double-back hipbelt contours to your body, providing support and easy fit.

Don't Sweat It
We’ve combined practical understanding of bushwalking and clever design to maximise ventilation and manage moisture. There are three essential contact areas on our harnesses – both shoulders and the lower lumbar – to allow healthy carrying. Air mesh lets air flow through harness foams, while space around the spine increases natural ventilation. The secure fit allows uninhibited movement of non-contact areas, improving harness comfort when walking and scrambling. Don’t sweat it.

Diamondloc
When rucksack weight is the priority, we use Diamondloc fabric. Weighing a paltry 170 g/m², this 210-denier nylon is reinforced with a grid of UHMWPE (ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene). It has incredible tear resistance and stops puncture rips in their tracks. Diamondloc is finished with a polyurethane coating on the inside and a DWR, Non PFC water-shedding treatment on the outside, making it water resistant. (As with all synthetic materials, using dry bags or stuff sacks is suggested.) Diamondloc is perfect for lighter, faster adventures, both on and off track.

Floating Lid
The floating lid and double-layered throat are designs born of experience. The lid is attached with straps, allowing extension to give 5-10 litres of extra capacity when needed: for water runs, helping mates or the start of a long multi-day trip. Functionality and comfort combine: cinch the internal compression-strap tight to create room for a broad-brimmed hat. There is also an externally-accessed pocket with key clip and a discreet internal pocket.

Side-Opening Front Zip
This functional design is born from experience. Designed on the Toolangi to ensure complete pocket access when technical gear is attached, the large side-opening front pocket allows for versatile packing and effective organisation of equipment. The water-resistant #8 zip is positioned and straight-stitched to improve longevity and ease-of-closure, while the storm shield is shaped to close, protecting from the elements. Neat and streamlined, this pocket design enhances useability in every season.

It's The Little Things
We’ve got this game stitched up! Quality threads, twin needles, bar tacks for reinforcement and strength. Non-crack nylon buckles that bend rather than break. Durable, chunky YKK zips. The water-resistant webbing used on load-carrying straps means you won’t be given the slip. We consider every detail, creating big differences in use.

Water Bottle Pockets
Water is critical, and never far from a bushwalkers’ mind. Our generously-cut bottle pockets are low and handy, making water accessible and putting weight close to your back for ergonomic load carrying. Perfect for bottles of all sizes, they also have a drain hole, preventing your pockets becoming buckets when it’s raining cats and dogs.

Made In Melbourne
We keep it pretty simple. We take what we’ve learnt over the last 40 years and use it to make the best gear we can for antipodean adventures. ONE PLANET is more than a name: it’s a commitment to making products the right way, from fabric to construction. All rucksack design and manufacturing happens in our Melbourne factory.
