Black Diamond Women's Distance 8 Backpack 2026

The technical pack that changed everything; the Women’s Distance 8L features an innovative vest-style harness paired with just enough storage and is built for fast-paced missions that take you up, over, and through the mountains.

Combining minimalism and storage, the Women’s Distance 8L pack carries everything you need for a day in the hills.

It's entirely unique harness system moves with you with stretch mesh “wings” that extend from the back panel along the sides to provide a secure and chafe-free fit. A women’s specific fit accommodates shorter torso lengths with shoulder strap shaping that focuses on curvature and width at the neck to ensure all-day comfort. The Women’s Distance 8L features smooth edge binding and soft, breathable, custom engineered diamond mesh for next-to-skin comfort. Easy to use Z-Pole storage can be deployed on the move, while dual side compression allows you to modify carry capacity as you go. Finally, soft-flask holsters securely hold your soft-flask in place, and the front pockets provide secure storage. The Distance 8L has an internal zip pocket, side stretch stash pockets, and a single zip pocket on the shoulder strap.
