We headed down to Kelty's headquarters for an inside look into how their great gear is made. The tests they run inside their advanced development center show how Kelty goes beyond creating great gear. They craft for the ultimate outdoor experience. 

Kelty has developed a way to simulate the distribution of force on the body when it's carrying a fully loaded pack. This test helps them identify how much weight their packs effectively transfer to the hips. The information ultimately guides the development of their packs. Kelty's focus on testing allows them to visualize how their products are performing so that they can optimize the variables that lead to a great experience out on the trail.
