A simple ultralight pack cover.
Big Agnes says:
Pack like a pro with an ultralight rain cover for your backpack.
The HyperBead™ Pack Rain Cover is designed to keep your gear sheltered from the elements while out on the trail, and disappear into your pack when not needed. Proprietary ultralight HyperBead™ fabric sheds water, while keeping weight and packed size minimal, for compromise-free water protection.
Our Verdict
The Big Agnes HyperBead Pack Rain Cover uses 15D nylon with 20D ripstop reinforcement and a 1200mm waterproof coating, keeping weight low without resorting to an overly delicate single-layer fabric.
The Medium weighs just 51g and fits 35-55L packs, while the elastic shower-cap style makes it quick to pull on when the weather turns.
