Hi everyone,
It’s finally happening—the first batch of big-volume adventure packs are on the way, and I couldn’t be more stoked to share what’s coming.
Over the last few months, the demand for huge, adventure-ready packs has been unreal. With so many of you gearing up for long summer epics and packrafting missions, it’s time to roll out something built for big miles, heavy loads, and real adventure.
I’m kicking things off with two beastly options:
1. Ultra 200 – Lightweight 90L MachineIf you want big volume without the bulk or weight, this is your pack. Mainly using the Ultra 200X but a 400X to keep things tough where its needed. Keeping it streamlined, and adventure-ready. Built for moving fast while carrying everything you need.
Features:
Massive 90L capacity
Side pockets
Two side compression straps
Top compression
Large front pocket
Roll-top closure
Lightweight 12mm frame
Expected weight around 1200g
Similar to this but colours may be different.


2. Ultra 400 – The Heavy-Duty Expedition RigWhen you want a pack that’s ready for absolutely anything, this is the one. Using Ultra 400X on the main body, 800TX base and 200X pockets, it brings the muscle. Includes the same features as the lightweight version but with these extra Features:
Fully removable top lid
Front daisy chain
25mm frame for serious load support
larger curved hipbelt.
Expected weight around 1750g
Similar to the below but will be doing the roll top in ultra grid instead and colours may be different.


Depending on the interest but expect I’ll aim to make around 10 packs in this first run and aiming to have them ready before Christmas. If you want to lock one in, you can pre-order now—these will go fast.
You can also customize your setup by adding hip belt pockets, shoulder pockets and water bottle pockets. But no other customization to help keep the construction process streamlined.
