Pursuit 15L Backpack - Women's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I took the Black Diamond Pursuit 15L Backpack on a long scrambling day in the high alpine and the fit was immediately different from every other daypack I have used at this volume. The BD Continuous Fit Harness contours to the body in a way that keeps the pack from shifting on technical terrain, and the women's specific shoulder and hip geometry meant zero pressure points through a full day of movement. The Quick Pull Compression System kept a lighter load snug and stable without any bouncing, and the stretch side pockets made grabbing a snack or stowing trekking poles on the move completely effortless."

Fast days in the high alpine demand a pack that moves with you rather than against you, and the Black Diamond Pursuit 15L Backpack was designed around exactly that principle. At 15 liters it carries everything needed for a summit push or a technical scramble without adding unnecessary weight to the equation, keeping the focus on the terrain ahead rather than what is on your back.

Black Diamond built the Pursuit around a custom BD Continuous Fit Harness with a seamless wing body construction that contours closely to the torso for a stable, body-hugging carry that holds position through scrambling moves and variable terrain. The women's specific fit in the shoulders, chest, and hips ensures the harness works with the body rather than around it, and the dual-density EVA back panel and mesh-lined waist belt keep airflow moving on sustained efforts. The Quick Pull Compression System adjusts load stability on the fly as the pack empties through the day, and a full suite of external pockets including stretch side pockets, shoulder strap pockets, and a large front stash panel keeps snacks, layers, and trekking poles accessible without breaking stride. Made from 100% recycled polyester body fabrics, the Pursuit 15 delivers high-alpine performance with a lower environmental footprint baked into every component.
