More Than
a Backpack
CARGO is a modular carry system. The backpack is the foundation: a 48-liter, armor-upgradeable pack with dedicated zones for clothing, electronics, and daily access items, plus RF and NFC signal shielding and inner and outer MOLLE. Everything else builds on top: armor plates, survival kits, and accessories that drop in without reconfiguring your setup.
Built for travelers, commuters, and prepared civilians who carry more than most. 5.1 lbs empty. Built for structure, not ultralight.
Designed Around
the Day
The CARGO started with a simple question: what would a pack look like if it was designed around how people actually travel, commute, and prepare? Not for a catalog shoot. For airports, daily carry, road trips, and go-bags. Four zones. Thirteen compartments. Every pocket, every compartment, every carry mode exists because someone needed it there. 5.1 lbs empty. Built for structure, not ultralight.
Main Compartment
The 48L main compartment opens with a full clamshell zip for fast packing and unpacking. Dedicated zones for clothing, gear, and daily access items. No digging through layers to find what you need.
- 48L total capacity with full-open clamshell access
- Internal compression straps to lock down contents
- Hydration reservoir routing with exit port
- Color-coded pull tabs for rapid access in low light
Secondary Bay: Armor or Electronics
A primary 17-inch laptop sleeve sits behind the main compartment. The secondary bay serves dual purpose: install a hard armor insert with the height-adjustable strap, or use it as a second 17-inch electronics bay with Floating Pocket drop protection that suspends your device off the hard base.
- RF and NFC shielded pockets for passports, key fobs, and access cards
- Primary laptop sleeve fits up to 17 inches
- Internal cable pass-throughs for power kit integration
- Mesh organizer pockets for cables and accessories
Exterior
Inner and outer MOLLE webbing lets you attach pouches, organizers, or accessories for the trip you are actually taking. Quick-access side pockets and a signal-shielded front pocket keep daily items within reach.
- Full MOLLE webbing on exterior and interior surfaces
- Attachable front plate carrier system (coming soon)
- Signal-shielded front pocket
- Dual side pockets with compression straps
Three Carry Modes
The CARGO carries three ways: full backpack, single-strap shoulder duffel, and top grab handle. Shoulder straps stow completely in the rear panel zip pocket so no hardware hangs loose on overhead bins or cab doors. A luggage pass-through sleeve on the back panel slides over any roller bag handle.
- Padded ergonomic shoulder straps with MOLLE loops
- Adjustable sternum strap
- Air-channel ventilated back panel
- Top and side grab handles for quick carry transitions

Every Detail, Purpose-Built
Ready for More?
The CARGO has a dedicated rear armor pocket with a height-adjustable strap for standard 10×12 ballistic inserts. Drop in a plate, zip it shut, and your everyday carry becomes armor-rated protection. No modifications needed. When armor is not installed, the same bay works as a secondary 17-inch electronics compartment with Floating Pocket drop protection.
Armor plates sold separately.
