Complete ALICE-Style Carrying System

This is supplied as a complete carrying system—not simply the pack bag.

The mixed aluminium and steel external frame provides structure and load support. Upgraded adjustable shoulder straps, a sternum strap and padded kidney-style waist support help stabilise the pack during extended wear.

The quick-release harness allows the pack to be removed rapidly when required.

Storage and Organisation

The large drawcord main compartment includes an internal radio or equipment pocket and two drainage eyelets.

Three large front pouches and two extra-large side pouches provide extensive external organisation. Each exterior pouch includes drainage eyelets to help prevent water collecting inside.

Additional webbing across the top and sides allows compatible equipment and pouches to be attached.

Expandable Equipment Carry

Heavy-duty 2.5mm lower webbing provides an attachment point for additional equipment such as a sleeping bag, bedroll or camping mat.

The double-layer protective top cover provides additional storage and can also be used as a utility pouch.
