Light, tough and stripped back to the essentials, the Grivel Spartan X 45 is an alpine pack built for big days in the mountains.
With a 45-litre capacity and weighing just 720 g, it delivers the carrying capacity you need for all the gear you need for technical mountaineering and climbing missions without loading you down with unnecessary features. The expandable roll-top closure allows the volume to be adjusted depending on your load, while the optimised panel design keeps the pack clean, streamlined and efficient. A thermoformed back panel provides structure and comfort, while the dual ice-axe holders and external attachment system give you practical options for carrying technical equipment.
The Spartan X range of rucksacks uses X-Pac, a high-performance laminated pack fabric developed to deliver an impressive combination of low weight, durability and water resistance. Unlike conventional woven pack fabrics, X-Pac uses a laminated construction with multiple layers working together, including a reinforced X-PLY® grid that helps control stretch and improves structural stability. The result is a fabric that is highly resistant to water while remaining light and durable enough for demanding mountain use.
X-Pac is particularly well suited to alpine packs because it doesn't rely solely on a traditional fabric coating to provide weather protection. Its laminated construction creates a highly water-resistant barrier while the reinforcement within the fabric helps resist tearing and deformation. The signature X-grid isn't just there for looks either, the X-PLY® reinforcement is designed to provide dimensional stability and help distribute loads across the fabric.
The result is a pack fabric that feels right at home in exposed mountain environments: light enough for fast ascents, tough enough for contact with rock and equipment, and highly resistant to rain and moisture. It's exactly the sort of material that makes sense when every gram counts, but durability can't be compromised.
The Spartan X 45's roll-top closure complements the X-Pac construction, helping to keep the main compartment protected from the elements while allowing the pack to expand or compress depending on how much kit you're carrying. Add in the low overall weight, technical attachment points and dual ice-axe carry, and you've got a genuinely streamlined pack for moving efficiently through technical terrain.
Whether you're heading out for an expedition alpine ascent or a technical mountaineering day, the Grivel Spartan X 45 keeps your load focused on what matters.
