For decades our backpacks have been legendary for their toughness, innovation and comfort. Fully-opening front loading, our signature racking system to organize and support loads and work with our stuff sacks or Giles Bags, optional lining, replaceable shoulder straps, quiet "stealth" laminate construction option for hunters, padded walls, construction intended to be repaired instead of thrown away – all were hallmarks of our designs. However, they were also time and labor-consuming for a small shop and have not been in regular production for a number of years. Now, thanks to our expanding production facilities and staff, we have been able to develop some great new products and re-introduce our heavily requested line of premium backpacks.
We don't claim to make the fanciest or most complicated packs -- just the best-made, most sensible backpacks you will ever own.
