BEST LIGHTWEIGHT BACKPACKING GEAR ON AMAZON PRIME

When You Need Lightweight Backpacking Gear Fast!

If you need backpacking gear delivered ASAP, then you’ve come to the right place. In this buyer’s guide, we’ve swept the marketplace for the best lightweight backpacking gear on Amazon Prime and ultralight backcountry equipment and apparel available with fast and free Prime shipping. Here you’ll find our recommendation for every key piece of gear a backpacker would need; the best options available to you on Amazon, some of which are priced well below the brand’s listed MSRP.

However, there are tradeoffs. Amazon is shunned by many outdoor companies, so shopping here means narrowing your selection. While you may not always be able to find the very best gear in existence, there are always good options, and sometimes you needn’t make any compromise at all. Lastly, we’ll note that inventory and Prime designations are fickle and ever changing. Product is constantly going in and out of stock, and something that was Prime yesterday may not be tomorrow. Tents, in particular, tend to fluctuate constantly and ship slower.
