Gregory Facet 45L Women's Ultralight Backpack | FreeFloat Suspension

Radically light, incredibly capable

The Gregory Facet 45L Women’s Ultralight Backpack is crafted for faster trips without sacrificing carry capacity. It blends a featherweight frame with a suspension that moves with you, helping you stay comfortable as you navigate varied terrain. A ventilated back panel, treated with Polygiene Stays Fresh Technology, helps keep things feeling fresh during long days on the trail.

With a design tuned for women’s fit, this pack concentrates weight toward the hips and away from the shoulders. The result is a balanced feel across miles, whether you’re carving a steep ascent or edging along ridgelines. The soft, breathable shoulder harness and a secure sternum strap provide stabilization, while a built-in hydration clip makes on-the-go sipping convenient.
