HARNESS FIT
The harness straps should wrap fully around the shoulders with no gaps between
the pack and back. The padded part of the harness straps should end at 2″/5 cm
or more below the armpits without topping out and the sternum strap adjusted
to approximately 2″/5 cm below the collarbone.
FEATURES
STRAIGHTJACKET COMPRESSION
- Dual foam-padded sidewalls work in conjunction with our StraightJacket compression system to both protect contents and stabilize loads. Loads can be compressed and stabilized by tensioning the dual StraightJacket straps on the pack’s front panel. When contents are less than full, the protected buckles on the right side panel of the pack serve as connection points for the straps compressing and stabilizing your load down to 8L.
LOOP FOR BLINKY LIGHT ATTACHMENT
The blinky light attachment strap found near the base of the front panel of the pack allows for quick light attachment for high visibility in the dark.
- Secure blinky light clip through reflective blinky light attachment loop.
- Blinky light attachment loop is reflective, providing some visibility even without a blinky light
LIDLOCK HELMET CARRY

- In the vertical position, pass LidLock through the helmet vent from the bottom and engage in the horizontal position.
