Exo Mountain K4?

[Venom One]

I guess I'm in the minority because to me the multi-cam is one of the ugliest colors ever invented.

You guys are going to really like these packs!!! Unless your a pack color diva. Lol

For you all that have used the K4 and a K3 in the past is it worth the difference to wait until the K4 comes out to purchase?

Anybody got input on this?

That depends on your situation. We don't know for sure when Exo will release the K4, so I would order a K3 if I wanted one right now.

The good thing about quality gear is that it's still great even when Kifaru, Exo, Stone Glacier, Seek Outside, etc., release new gear. Even though I get to try out a lot of new gear, I still have and use older stuff as well, and I would be doing just fine if that's all I had.

Thanks for input no rush to buy just wandering if there is enough of an improvment to wait.

Steve, is the K4 belt a continuous 1 pc design like the K2 or is a design like the K3?

from the pics on page 6 it looks like a 3 piece, two belt wings and lumbar

Here's my formal request for a SKRE Summit bag

 

[md126]

I can’t see in the pics on page 6 where it shows the belt design as far as 1 vs 3pc

Guess I’ll have to wait until 2023 to see if it’s different from the K3….

It's different

First Lite is owned by Liberals. I'm not buying anything that's attached to them

Huh?

Apologies if I missed it somehow, but will the new packs have the interior drybag option still? Huge selling point for me.

Pretty sure I remember Steve telling me they will.

Steve,
Please, please make the molle panel on hip belt wide enough to run a holster next to some type of pouch, even if it’s just a narrower cell phone pouch!!! I spoke w/ Dioni about this when we met in the field, and understand your disdain for people putting too much weight on the hip belt. I only carry, small lightweight items in hip belt pouches, things that are needed often, without taking pack off. Still need a pouch on each side to accommodate all of those things. But, also want the pistol positioned optimally so my hand can find it at a moment’s notice. Used the slightly narrower K2 pouch on the K3 belt to accomplish this. Blade tech tek lok to attach holster (looks like it will work w/ the molle). Have to imagine a lot of dudes would prioritize same.
I’ve loved the K3 pack since the day it was delivered. Hard to imagine that anything could be done to significantly improve upon it. But, I got to see it, feel it. And, y’all knocked it out the park!!! Hoping, praying that final hip belt design will allow pistol placement in exact same spot it has been on my K2, K3. If so, I’ll definitely be one of the many on that first order!!

Ok thanks for the reply!

I get no black boots and avoiding military colors, but multi-cam (scorpion pattern) is as military as one can get (being the primary patern for both Air Force and Army). However, it is also one of the best camo patterns made (the Navy's camo is its equal). Of course, part of that is due to performance in the NIR and SWIR spectrum, coyote tan is horrifically bad in the NIR and SWIR spectrum, but as long as elk don't start using NVGs it probably does not matter.

Exo has made it very clear it may not release until 2024 so if you need a pack between now and then.

It’s coming out either feb or march 2023 according to the sales person I spoke with from Exo. They suggested I wait for the K4 vs buying a k3 now if I’m not in a hurry

I just bought a new K3 4800 for me and a 1800 for my Dad for his AZ Desert Bighorn Sheep Hunt. Can't wait to see what they come out with next for 2023. I borrowed and tested out my buddies K2 1800 and hauled out a cow elk a couple weeks ago it worked out great. Wish I could wait for the new K4. Oh well, looking forward to the sheep hunt.

The hipbelt is one continuous piece. It's actually most similar in construction to our original Skeleton hipbelt from 2014. Obviously different design but similar in how its sewn together.

You'll be able to run a pistol and a cell pouch on one side if you wanted. The pistol would ride on the front Molle panel and we will eventually have a slim cell phone style pouch that you could run on the angled Molle panel near the back of the hipbelt.
