Dutch Long Range "Sting" Black Patrol Pack

Designed by Lowe Alpine and improved by ARWY, this Long Range "Sting" Patrol Pack is the big brother to our Dutch "Landmacht" Assault Pack. Sporting an 80-liter capacity between three compartments, a smart design, and quality construction—the only mistake the Dutch made with these packs was in letting them go.

Between the padded shoulder straps, back pads, and waist belt, once you've got one on it's not going anywhere. Adjustments can be made along the back so that the waist belt and shoulder straps sit properly regardless of your height, guaranteeing a snug fit,

Made out of Cordura nylon, the pack's both sturdy and waterproof. The main compartment holds 60 liters, and there's a document pocket tucked inside the elastic lid. There's also a pouch for a hydration bladder with a right-side passthrough.

What's more, the lid has an external cargo pocket as well as fasteners to affix gear, the shoulder pads have clips for holding the hydration tube or for attaching small items like a compass. There's also MOLLE webbing on the outside of the pack, allowing you to add even more storage, as well as strap keepers.

Along the sides are two smaller zip-on bags, each adding 10 liters per pouch. Each pouch has a stowable padded strap, and the pair can be zipped together once to form a small assault pack, zipped together twice to form a duffle bag, or relocated to the back or bottom of the bag using the MOLLE straps/clip. 

The backpacks come in two types, sorted by the buckle on the waist strap. ARWY's first generation of bags were almost identical copies of Lowe Alpine's original "Sting" design, complete with your standard fast-release buckle. Later iterations made slight improvements, swapping that out for the "Berghaus buckle".
