The Montane Trailblazer backpack series is designed for those who enjoys moving quickly and effortlessly in the rough terrain. The 8-liter version is ideal for short trips and trail running. The backpack has a whole range of features. This model in the Spring/Summer 2024 collection is newly made from recycled materials and has an improved system for securing items.

The Montane brand has introduced a range of updates and improvements in its 2024 collection of the legendary Trailblazer backpacks. The backpacks are now made from recycled materials, with the most significant changes in pocket design, pack access, and a new T-Hook attachment system. This T-Hook system allows relocation of fastening points using hooks that fit into multiple attachment slots along the front panel's sides. The Trailblazer 8 (2024) builds on the previous popular Trailblazer 8 model.
The backpack is made from lightweight and durable recycled RAPTOR Cross Lite 70D Nylon, which resists light rain thanks to a durable polyurethane composite UTS coating and a PFC-free DWR treatment. This makes the pack more environmentally friendly and safer for the user. The shoulder straps and back panel are constructed from recycled CONTACT Air Mesh Plus (100% polyester), ensuring breathability and comfort while minimizing abrasion on membrane outerwear.
The backpack includes a well-thought-out pocket layout and is compatible with hydration bladders.
The backpack is available in one size, suitable for torso lengths between 45 – 53 cm. Its design and structure place it between a traditional backpack and a running vest, offering everything needed for shorter day hikes and trail running. If you're looking for a larger pack for full-day hikes, consider the Trailblazer 18 or Trailblazer 25 from the same collection.

The backpack closely conforms to the user's body while allowing full freedom of active movement. The COVALENT system adapts perfectly to individual body shapes.

The backpack features two height-adjustable elastic chest straps with Click and Go fastening, ensuring quick and easy adjustments for enhanced stability and security during fast-paced movement.

The shoulder strap pockets feature a stretch expansion and are zippered for secure closure. They are spacious enough to hold a cell phone or small water bottles.

The new T-Hook attachment system allows adjustable placement of fastening points on the backpack using hooks that can be inserted into multiple slots on the sides of the front panel.

On the sides of the backpack, there are 2 easily accessible zippered pockets suitable for snacks or a wallet.

The main storage area also has a clip for keys and features dividers for easy organization of your gear.
