Comfortable Kiwi made backpacks

An excellent pack for a day walk or bike commute.

Light and minimal. Ideal for fast-packing. Perfect carry-on luggage. They have been used in the handlebar roll by bike packers.

Frameless and minimally padded yet with a reputation for comfort. My most popular pack. All you need for 3-4 days.

50l to the top of an open bag. Designed to stay out of the way, and comes with ice axe toggles, flat side pockets, removeable compression straps and a frame to support big loads.

A very popular size and all you need for most tramper use cases. 55l does not include the volume of the pockets, and is quite conservative.

60l to the top of an open bag, slightly pear shaped (wider at the base). For longer, more hard core, trips. Ice axe toggles, removeable compression straps and flat side pockets for paddles and snow stakes.

65l Classic's work well for longer tramping trips and packrafting. 65l does not include the volume of the pockets, and is quite conservative.

70l to the top of an open bag. Great for transalpine trips and packrafting. Ice axe toggles, removeable compression straps and flat side pockets for paddles and snow stakes. Pear shaped. It carries well.

80l to the top of an open bag. Great for big transalpine carries. Flat side pockets for paddles and snow stakes, ice axe toggles, removeable compression straps. This pack is my most pear shaped. It feels balanced and carries well.

Bottle pockets are designed for standard 750ml sports drink bottles and work well for moderate sized phones too. Access is very fast with a drawcord and barrel lock. They work on almost any pack with a webbing daisy chain on the strap.

I was asked to make a high volume trapper waist bag by DOC, I made something similar to macpac, lighter and tougher, with a small item pocket and hammer holster. They work well in combination with a trapper belt pouch, and will gobble up most braces, no problem.

I was asked to make 2 compartment belt pouches by a local pest control contractor, by word of mouth they have become quite popular all over NZ. Made from heavier duty EPX400, with a blaze of colour.

Simple and functional. Originally designed as a swim bag for packrafting. Small enough to work well seated. Many people wear theirs with a backpack.

Great for cards, change, keys, ear phones, bits and pieces.

Keep odds and ends together. Made from RBC450RS. Strong 8 coil zip. Slightly larger than an A5 paper sheet.

Ideal packing cube for a backpack. Made from light weight and durable RBC450RS with a beefy 8 Coil zip. 30 cm X 11 cm X 11 cm.
