Gregory’s Fusion LTS Series DRRRROPS!!!!

I am very proud of these packs, as I helped and aided through the design process with Cj Whittaker (in the video). My approach was from a climbers standpoint. My major specifications were cleanliness, simplicity, and accessibility. We spent 3 days going over and over the ideas, looking at other packs for comparison, and then back to the drawing board (literally). The experience was a dream of mine and now I can look at a product and say that I have aided in the design. Big deal to me. These packs are simply awesome. There are 3 in the series both for Men and Women.

I have been using the Torre 33L for the past 9 months. My objective was to put this joint to use and try to kick its ass, use it in every situation, and then provide feedback. So far…. to this day… I haven’t been able to damage it in the slightest. No rips, no holes, nothing. The zipper is still intact, the material is completely fine.

The harness system is amazing. It is a mold that offers total support and comfort. I pack this thing with bolts, draws, my drill, a rope, harness, shoes, water, and food. NO problem. The access to the interior is SO easy with the opening design. I am in love with this pack.

    Hi Joe , I know it’s off topic but since you have the inside track you might know this. Is La Sportiva planning to bring the Solution (Testarossa etc) chalk bags to US or they keep’em Europe only? Thanks

    Cmi… I don’t know for sure man, but I would guess just keep them in EU. EU has jeans, and all kinds of other apparel that USA doesn’t carry. Good luck man and thanks for reading!

    I remember you told me about this series last year. I’m glad I waited, because this looks like a sick collaboration, Joe. I think I’m going to score a Torre or the Tarne, depending on how the top pocket works on each.

    Nice man… VERY cool Phunk… There isn’t a top pouch on the Torre. There is only zipper pouch for keys, tape, and what not. The Tarne however has the top pocket and one on the front. More storage spots with the Tarne. Good luck hommie.
