Tiny but mighty, the 45 litre Traverse is compact, comfy and designed to last. Constructed using our hearty WATERLOC canvas and faithful AirX harness, with simple top-loading entry for fuss-free organisation. The refined design stops it snagging on rocks or shrubs during your next crag day or overnight stay. A classic, rugged pack for big days out.
Gear Attachment
The ONE PLANET attachment system allows you
to secure your technical gear
and equipment efficiently and easily, while permitting full access
to the pockets and Traverse backpack body – important
for testing conditions and big adventures.
Add-ons like Hipbelt Pockets and Trash & Treasure bags can customise your set-up with the Traverse.
AirX Harness
The AirX harness is light in weight and serious in support, offering breezy ventilation and excellent comfort. The Goldilocks carrying capacity is up to 20 kilograms. AirX packs are available in sizes for both males and females. Each size has adjustable shoulders straps, allowing a personalised fit. Grippy air mesh improves both ventilation and pack-to-body adherence for enjoyable bushwalking. AirX, the harness of choice for overnight trips and lightweight, faster journeys.
Harness Construction
A good harness is the foundation of every rucksack: when you load up and head off you’ll agree! One Planet's laminated three-layer foam delivers solid support, plush comfort and a breathable contact area, with protective treatment against bacteria and rot. One Planet's 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.
Waterloc Canvas
Made in Australia specifically for ONE PLANET, our WATERLOC canvas (390 gsm) is tightly woven and core spun, constructed from a polyester thread wrapped in cotton. The polyester core gives strength, while the cotton wrap expands when moist, providing superior water resistance. Once woven into fabric, it’s impregnated with rot inhibitors and waterproofing agents. The seams of our WATERLOC canvas bags are also bound with four-fold binding, increasing both water resistance and durability.
Add-Ons
ONE PLANET intentionally design rucksacks that are clean, simple and functional. Optional add-ons give you the power to personalise your set-up with features you want. Choose the Trash & Treasure to add versatility: this four litre external pocket attaches easily via side compression straps. Build the Traverse that works for you.
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 (designed for 1L Nalgene’s), they also have a drain hole, preventing your pockets becoming buckets when it’s raining cats and dogs.
Made In Melbourne
One Planet keep it pretty simple. They take what they’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 is done and manufacturing happens in our Melbourne factory.
