How to fit & adjust an Adventure or Pro series pack

HOW TO CUSTOM FIT A DENALI™ PRO, ROBSON™ PRO, PETIT DRU™ PRO, WHITNEY™, LASSEN™, PALISADE™, OR SHASTA™ PACK TO YOUR BODY

1. FRAME SIZE

Measure your torso length using a flexible tape measure, or Gregory Fit-O-Matic. Do it two or three times, just to be sure.


If your torso measurement is: Your frame size should be:
14” – 15 _” XS
15 _” – 17 _” SM
17 _” – 19 _” MD
19 _” – 21 _” LG

2. WAIST BELT SIZE

Measure your waist around the top of your hipbones.

If your waist measurement is: Your belt size should be:
22” – 28” SM
28” – 34” MD
34” – 40” LG
40” – Larger” XL

To change the waist belt size, reach under the lumbar pad and locate the snap that holds the pad on the Adjust·A·Cant™ panel. Unthread the front buckle and remove the side stabilizer strap. Slide the pad off of the stiffener. Reverse the process to install the correct size pads.

3. WAIST BELT CANT ADJUSTMENT

The Adjust·A·Cant™ feature is a critical feature. By adjusting the waist belts angle to mirror your hip shape you will be able to support the weight over a larger surface area for a more comfortable experience.

Put the pack on with 10-15 pounds of weight and buckle the waist belt.

Lift your leg so your thigh is horizontal to the ground. The bottom edge of the waist belt should be level with the break in your leg (see illustration on page ).

Use your fingers to check for gaps at the top edge and lower edge of the waist belt.

If any gaps exist, remove the pack and waist belt.

Use a coin or screwdriver to remove the brass bolts in the middle of the Adjust·A·Cant™ panel.

Angle the panel up or down and replace the brass bolts and waist belt pad.

Re-check for gaps, and adjust again if necessary.

4. SHOULDER HARNESS SELECTION

Shoulder harnesses come in six sizes:
- Men’s SM, MD, and LG
- Women’s XS, SM, and MD

In general, the shoulder harness size is usually the same as the frame size. Check to make sure the main curve on the harness is level with your armpit. Make sure the load lifter straps on top of the harness are loose.


Wiggle the small metal slider on the top surface of the harness and move to a point that is level with your collarbone.

The Velcro® panel on the top of the harness may be moved side-to-side to fine tune how the harness lies against your skin.

The sternum strap may be moved up or down on the shoulder harness by releasing the snaps that attach it. The only rule of thumb is that it should be in a comfortable position, and it should not restrict your breathing.

5. SHOULDER HARNESS INSTALLATION

Your torso length determines the shoulder harness setting.

If your frame size is:
XS SM MD LG
15” – 15 _” 17” – 17 _” 19” – 19 _” 21” – 21 _”
14” – 14 _” 16” – 16 _” 18” – 18 _” 20” – 20 _”



Twist the metal slider at the top of the harness to remove it from the Auto·Cant™ slot. Reverse the process to re-install.
