Here's a sneak peak for the big center zip pack.

Love this thing!

That's a pretty cool pack.
It would suck if that zipper broke though. With my OCD, I would be pulling the pack off every 100yrds to make sure nothing fell out.😄

I know that Kifaru has great customer service and would fix it like they did with my bikini frame stitching

2lb 13 oz

Size will be pin pointed soon, but 8,800-9,400 ci without lid.

Functions very well for a pack this size, as it compresses flat, has easy access wings and center zip.

It's a # 10 zipper and has been tested with ungodly amounts of weight, + 3 compression straps.

This one would suit my style better than the Nomad,, awesome to see the new offerings!! I love the center zip. I hate the dig in and look method and it looks like it would be much easier to load, position and secure meat.

Great job,, keep them coming.

Yep....only thing that would make that better would be it in Highlander...no Highlander no care :)

Just kidding....well done on the design Aron. Even if I'm the only one that wants a pack this big I'll take it. That thing will haul a PR-49 vertically between them batwings like a boss and the paddles should go in those sleeve perfect like ya mentioned!!! Great to see it in the flesh....err I mean fabric ;)

Believe it or not, this functions as a day pack better than a DT1.

We wouldn't have designed it if it wasn't.

Not kidding, this pack is amazingly versatile for the size.

Good to hear...this thing will live on my Duplex frame and be my day hunt and super expedition hauler...Bikini/Highcamp will now be summer backpack bear hunting treks and long distance hikes in for caribou and sheep that don't require a packraft ;)

Bag = Awesome

About time someone made a "Day Pack" for us Alaskans. :) Speaking of the Klampets. :) I think all this might fit in this one.

I like The "Long Range Mega" since it will be the largest in the lineup so far anyway. :)
