Aarn packs
Aarn Packs represent the most efficient, comfortable, stable, practical and healthiest way to carry load on the human body.
Designed in Christchurch NZ Backpacking Light has been an Aarn stockist for over 15 years and has the full range and custom fitting service available.
Aarn Packs was born in Aotearoa New Zealand, Mother Nature’s playground, where spending time in the mountains and on the trails is a way of life.
The founders Aarn and Devi Tate set out to challenge traditional back pack design thinking. They spent years researching, innovating, and developing new design principles to create a pack that didn’t alter posture, balance and movement.

Aarn Packs continues to be an industry leader in the outdoor adventure scene. We’re proud to have received accolades and awards from DuPont, Trail Kauftipp, Editors Choice at Outdoor, Outdoor Gold Winner, Gear Guide Innovation Awards, and ISPO Brand New Award.
