Hike fast and light with the INOV8 VentureLite 8 litre backpack.
Perfect for shorter hikes of a few hours’ duration, this lightweight hiking pack has a secure and comfortable, no bounce fit. Adjustable ‘v’ shaped webbing straps, together with a chest strap allow you to get the fit just right. At the same time the anatomical design of the pack is super comfortable, and moves with your body. An AIR RELEASE moulded foam back panel provides comfort and allows air to move freely between your back and the pack, letting heat and sweat escape.
The VENTURELITE 8 hiking backpack has a reservoir compartment that can hold a 2 litre reservoir (sold separately), while a side bottle pocket can store extra hydration. Meanwhile the main zipped compartment has just enough storage space for trail hikes of a couple of hours. In addition a zipped side pocket is perfect for storing valuables in, and an easy access stash pocked is the ideal size for storing a map or waterproof. The pack also features a whistle for attracting attention in the event of an emergency.
Made using a light, but tough recycled nylon ripstop fabric, the VENTURELITE 8 also uses YKK Natulon recycled zip tape to minimise its environmental impact.
INOV8 is a British running brand founded in 2003 in the Lake District. It started with fell running, where grip on wet grass, mud and rock matters more than anything else, and that focus still shapes the range today.
At Compass Point we stock INOV8 across shoes, clothing and running packs. The Mudtalon range (V2, Wide and Precision) is built for soft, muddy ground and is a popular choice for orienteering in forest terrain, which is why it sits in our orienteering shoes as well as trail shoes. For firmer trails and mixed ground there are the Trailtalon and TrailFly lines, from the light TrailFly Speed and zero-drop TrailFly Zero to the cushioned TrailFly Max. The RoadFly Zero covers road running.
The range continues with the Stormshell V2 waterproof running jacket, Racepac hydration vests, soft flasks, race belts, All Terrain gaiters, gloves, headbands and running socks.
Where to start: browse trail running shoes for the full shoe line-up, hydration vests for longer races and mountain marathons, and waterproof jackets for kit-list events. Not sure which shoe suits your terrain? Our guide to choosing orienteering shoes for UK terrain compares grip and fit.
INOV8 shoes come in men's and women's versions, and most models are held in stock in a run of UK sizes with delivery across the UK.
