The main compartment is closed using an extremely simple lid system: the mouth of the bag folds down over itself when the lid is closed, creating a secure seal. This is a very simple, very bombproof design. A zippered pocket inside the lid offers safe storage for your wallet, keys, travel documents and phone.
The closure system and side compression straps offer some adjustability to the volume of the pack. Strap it down tight or loosen it up depending on the carried load. The Jääkäri S capacity can be adjusted from 20 to 30 litres, depending on how you fold the top lid.
A hydration compartment is attached to the interior back wall. Tube ports on both sides allow you to route the hydration tube from the left or right, while leaving the other port free for other uses such as antennas or cables.
The low profile shoulder straps are made from 40 mm wide webbing, with ladderlock buckles in the bottom corners of the bag for adjustment. The 25 mm webbing on top of the shoulder straps allow you to attach sternum straps, hydration tubes etc.
MILITARY GRADE MATERIALS
The majority of materials we use for our commercial production are the same which we use in equipment for the Finnish Defence Forces and other defence and security clients. Our most commonly used fabric in load carrying equipment is extremely wear resistant 1000D Cordura, as per FDF specs, with polyurethane coating on the inside. The webbing and edge tape we use are, again as per FDF specs, strong polyester webbing in various widths and thicknesses for different applications.
Our green and M05 camouflage materials and accessories are by default compliant with strict FDF specs for NIR reflection levels, as should be since these same materials are used in official military equipment.
MODULAR AND ADAPTABLE
PALS webbing on the sides and lid allow you to attach additional pouches and gear. This system offers numerous options for configuring the pack to suit your specific needs. Not only for pouches though, the PALS webbing can also be used to attach utility straps, shock cord, carabiners etc. Four webbing loops at the bottom can be used to attach utility straps.
The Jääkäri S can be rolled up to quite a tight package for carry inside a larger backpack for use as a daypack.
