Why Choose Dyneema Fabric Food Bags?

  • We have lots of food bag options. Select this ultralight Dyneema fabric option if you value weight savings over everything else. The compromise is cost. It may not have the lifespan of an Ecopak bag or the printing capabilities of D50T, but Dyneema 1.43 is the lightest food bag option we have.

      Amazing!

      This bag can fit much more than I expected! And it seems to be odor proof. Not sure about how it handles itself when in a bear hang, but the large is a great size and can fit 7 days of food easily. Exactly what I’m looking for and super lightweight.

      Worth the wait

      I ordered the large Dyneema Food Bag during the last sale. Due to Hilltop Packs being a USA business with a small production staff, I had to wait several weeks for it to arrive. When it arrived, I realized it was worth the wait. The large version should fit all my food with room to spare. I highly recommended this quality product. I might order the smaller version in the future for solo weekend backpacking trips that require less food.

      we appreciate the kind words!

      Perfect in every way

      Bought product a week before a backpacking trip and it arrived just in time. Hilltop packs customer service is almost too good. Everyone I talked to was super helpful answering questions. The product itself was awesome! Worked better than I could have asked for. Definitely looking forward to purchasing more products in the future!

      I had this bear bag previously and absolutely loved it. Lightweight, sturdy, and easy to use, however it sadly got misplaced during a move. I didn't know about this until I was less than two weeks away from a thru-hike. I loved it enough to order a new one, unsure if it would get here in time but was willing to take the risk knowing it would be here when I got back. The Hilltop Packs team was amazing and expedited the order at my request, getting it shipped a day after I asked. I now get to have the safe, easy, lightweight food storage I was used to while hiking. Thanks Hilltop Packs!

      Great product from great people!

      Ultralight roll top bags were just why I needed to really dial in my food and gear organization on the trail. Everything I ordered was super high quality, and it makes me happy to support a small business that cares about their industry. I needed a bit of customer support to update my order and they went above and beyond. I'll definitely be ordering again. Thank you!

      Prompt service

      Cudos to the Hilltop Team!! Thanks for expediting my order, it arrived in time a 90 mile adventure with bear hang poles. The large bag held six days food and other items. Hanging was easy. The rolled top, once clipped forms a sturdy loop.

      I love this food bag

      Used the food bag recently on a week long backpacking trip in NC. I was reminded by how much I like this piece of gear and bought another one for my son after we returned. I think the spoon sleeve is genius and recommend adding it. Bags’s dimensions are spot on for fitting in the top of my pack. It comes out and has everything I need for meal prep minus my stove and water. This bag was key to keeping organised and efficient while in the daily routine of trail life. I just love it!

      Fantastic!

      Great bag! Flat bottom option is perfect as it makes it easy to load and unload. Fits 5 days of food just fine and easy to get in and out of pack. Definitely a good purchase

      Great Bag!

      Not sure why it took me so long to find Hilltop, but sure glad I did. Everything about this bear bag makes sense to me. Having a flat one from another company, it was always frustrating to have the bulky food not slide the whole way down, and thus decreasing the total amount the bag could hold. The square bottom option on my Hilltop bag solves that problem nicely!
      And I thought I was the only one fishing for my long spoon every mealtime. Seems like it should be easy to locate, but isn't. Again, the folks at Hilltop came up with a simple solution. I ordered my bag with a spoon stash, and won't be fishing for the spoon again!

      Glad I bought this one.

      Glad I bought this one. I have purchased DCF bags from other vendors. It took slightly longer to receive this one, but it definitely is the best quality of all the bags I have. I bought the large for a weeklong trip this summer and it looks like the size will be perfect.
