When heading into the backcountry on a hike or tackling mountainous terrains, you need to know that the gear you carry is up to the job and that’s where excellent brands like Alpine Alchemy come into play. Their debut series of accessories, the Ether Collection, is funding on Kickstarter as we speak and if you’re after some versatile, adventure-ready accessories for your next wilderness sojourn, you’ve just found the ideal candidate.
The Ether Collection from Alpine Alchemy is a collection of outdoor-thinking bags that transform, modulate, and adapt to customize to your every adventure and the quality craftsmanship and materials really sets them apart from the crowd. It consists of a number of different outdoor accessories and with prices starting at just $19 for the 10L Hip Sling, there is something to suit every budget and requirement within this top-notch collection from Alpine Alchemy.
Perfectly straddling the line between outdoor performance and professional travel, the Ether Collection from Alpine Alchemy consists of a Hip Pack, Sling Pack and Backpack and, if you’re anything like us here at Coolector HQ, you’ll be looking to get your hands on all three – which you can do for the bargain price of just $309 during the Kickstarter campaign (down from the expected final retail price of $499) – so move fast if you want to bag yourself a bargain.
The cornerstone of the Ether Collection is the 28-36L Backpack which is as functional as it is hard-wearing and you’ll be reaching for this clever carry every time you’re heading on your travels or out into the wild. It has loads of great features like a hidden pouch for separating clean and dirty gear, padded handles for enhanced comfort and a 15′ padded laptop sleeve if you need to have your tech in tow during your outdoor adventures or travels.
Designed for rapid access and closure, the backpack is convenient in the extreme and will help significantly streamline all your adventures. It has a designated EDC pocket for all your day to day essentials such as keys, phone and wallet and a bottle pocket for ensuring you stay hydrated on the go.
Equally as impressive, is the Alpine Alchemy Sling-Pack which, it’s fair to say, is not your average sling. It boasts a non-traditional design and boasts an adjustable shoulder strap that allows you to centre the weight of your carry to the hips instead of it all being on the shoulders – something that will make you much more comfortable on the go. Designed to be accessed without having to remove the bag, it is great for urban exploring or for your daily commute and we’re loving the clever design of its various pockets here at The Coolector.
The Sling-Pack has 10L of storage space and this will be more than enough for porting about all your essentials for a day of exploration. It has a front pouch pocket and a shoulder pocket that are ideal for storing your essentials that you need to be able to access rapidly and this classy carry from Alpine Alchemy will make any trip that much more streamlined and effortless. Something we can all get on board with.
Last but not least is the small but perfectly formed, Hip Sling, which provides a storage capacity between 2-10L depending on how you deploy it. This first-class carry from Alpine Alchemy is designed to keep things organised even when life becomes unpredictable. It can also be used as an 8L packing cube or even a handlebar bag for the front of your bike. It has compression straps to ensure it stays as small as possible and has roll-top storage design that enhances the usable space.
Kickstarter is home to some excellent campaigns in the bags and accessories arena and this Ether Collection from Alpine Alchemy definitely sits at the top table in our opinion here at Coolector HQ. For anyone in the market for some well-made, highly functional accessories for travel and outdoor adventuring, you can get it all within this top-class collection. Head on over to Kickstarter now to bag yours for a bargain price.
