Kit Bags are our original and most popular item. Kit Bags were born out of the desire to discreetly carry a pistol in a way that doesn't interfere with a full size backpack. Kit Bags are so handy for keeping small items close at hand on the trail (or in the ATV, or in the canoe, or on the stand, etc.) that many folks choose to use them even without a pistol.

The HPG pack system is merely a modern rendering of an old way of thinking about packing a load. Old timers always started out with a rigid frame and then lashed their bundle to the frame. There was an art as well as a science to it which required a certain skillset.

The Mountain Serape is an exercise in insulation versatility. This single item functions in the following ways:

• insulated hooded poncho
• knee length greatcoat (zipper or hook secured)
• blanket for two in a survival situation
• half zip sleeping bag good for a 20-30 degree temperature gain

It is constructed entirely in the US out of top quality materials - DWR treated mini-ripstop, primaloft fusion, and YKK zippers. The weight is 2.5lbs which is heavier than a comparable sleeping bag, but lighter than a comparable sleeping bag plus comparable jacket. Price is $170 for ranger green and $185 for multicam with a ranger green liner.

The Tarahumara pack is named after a tribe of natives in northern Mexico, famous for their running prowess. It is a simple stripped down pack designed to carry 2 quarts of water and just enough gear for a light day in the field. However, with its very capable shoulder harness and horizontal compression straps, you've got some overflow capacity if you need it.

It has two generous wand pockets (one on each side) and a hang tab for a water bladder on the inside. If you are using a water bladder, the hose routes out the top of the zipper underneath the zipper hood. There is also quilted padding on the body side with a flat slot pocket suitable for stashing a netbook, machete, or even a lever action rifle.
