Overview

A padded laptop sleeve, a rear hydration compartment and a hidden CCW compartment organize the interior of this nylon pack. A fleece-lined pocket protects eyewear or media, and the shoulder harness adjusts.

Nine pockets spread across five compartments let a user sort tools, electronics and daily carry items. The no-stretch fabric resists wear and sheds light moisture. Hand washing is the stated care method.

Who it's for

Daily work use and short outdoor trips suit a pack this size. Anyone hauling bulky equipment needs the larger version of the line.
