The Frost River High Falls Short Day Pack proves that you don't need a large backpack to head outdoors properly. Handmade in Duluth, Minnesota from heavyweight waxed canvas, premium leather and solid brass hardware, this compact 10-litre day pack is built for quick hikes, dog walks, cycling, travel and everyday adventures.
Lightweight, comfortable and naturally weather-resistant, it carries just what you need without unnecessary bulk. Whether you're exploring woodland trails or navigating the daily commute, the High Falls is a rugged waxed canvas backpack built to last a lifetime.
Sometimes less really is more.
With a slim profile and 10-litre capacity, the High Falls Short Day Pack is designed to carry your daily essentials while staying comfortable and unobtrusive. The twin-pull zip opens the main compartment quickly and allows easy access whether you're on the trail or in town.
Inside, there's space for your jacket, lunch, camera or everyday gear, while an internal hydration sleeve accommodates a water bladder for longer walks. The twin zip pulls allow the drinking tube to exit neatly from the top, with dedicated loops on the shoulder straps keeping it securely in place as you move.
Like every Frost River bag, the High Falls is built using traditional materials chosen for strength rather than shortcuts.
The body combines 18oz and 10.10oz waxed cotton canvas, providing exceptional durability while naturally resisting rain, dirt and abrasion. Premium leather reinforces key stress points, while solid brass hardware offers dependable performance in all conditions.
A double-layer canvas base adds extra protection where wear is greatest, while the waxed canvas develops a rich patina over time, making every pack unique to its owner.
The High Falls rides close to your back, making it exceptionally comfortable for long walks or active days outdoors.
Padded canvas shoulder straps with cotton webbing distribute weight evenly, while the slim design stays stable whether you're hiking uneven ground or cycling through town. A sturdy cotton web grab handle makes it easy to pick up and go whenever adventure calls.
You'll barely notice you're wearing it until you need what's inside.

Every High Falls Short Day Pack is handcrafted in a solar-powered workshop in Duluth, Minnesota and backed by Frost River's renowned lifetime guarantee and repair programme.
