The Zevo 20 liter roll top daypack is durable enough to handle off trail excursions but light enough to never hold you back. This pack is ideal for early season scouting missions, day hikes, and lightweight wilderness survival. Loaded with tons of organizational options yet simple enough to never lose track of your gear.
Your current daypack has a problem? The ZEVO 20 is the solution.
Light enough to not hold you back, cool enough to stand out from the crowd, and durable enough to handle off trail backcountry terrain, the ZEVO 20 will be your new go-to pack for all of your daily missions. The ZEVO Series of packs is a cross between the durability/functionality of our EVO Seriesand the countless miles of testing of our minimalist UL ZERK Series (of The Real Hiking Viking fame); this easy access 20 liter daypack with its roll top main compartment and hi-vis Blaze Orange interior allows for convenient and visible access to all of your essential trail gear & EDC items. Great for a 24-Hr Bag option with its small form factor and minimalist silhouette.
The multiple pockets on the exterior and the superior shoulder strap organization provide quick access of gear and your essentials. Modular compression straps allow for customizing your load carrying style and the shoulder straps integrate with our new Timber EVO (SM / MD)and our ZERK 3L Loki Lumbar convertible waistpack for additional EDC chest carry options.

Front panel daisy chain with bungee cord, cinch system
Forward pull waistbelt webbing adjustment
Front stretch mesh pocket for quick access to extra gear

I previously owned a Zerk, and while I moved to a larger pack with a frame I really missed what I consider the most comfortable load carrying system out there. I was excited to see Mountainsmith ported this harness over to several packs, including these smaller daypacks. The 500d cordura feels indestructible, and the overall quality and workmanship are top notch. The pack has enough organizational features without going overboard. Note that like the Zerk, this is not made for small people, specifically the shoulder harness. But those average to larger folks will rejoice that a company FINALLY doesn't assume their customer is a 5ft 110 pound person (nothing against smaller folks of course...just seems like most packs out there are made for you). While a bit pricey, I suspect this thing will last a really really long time, even with heavy use. Also note that the Zevo 20 / Zerk 20 are basically the same pack, with the Zerk 20 being lighter due to the lower denier materials. Also I wish they had more color options for both.

Great DayPack/ Chest Harness
love the harness - have used this on a number of other packs - pockets are great, would love to see this as a 30L overnighter for light weight UL packers
