Our largest and most advanced backpack for your next outdoor adventure.
The MARKHOR-45™ Backpack is our largest and most advanced backpack for hiking, camping, and hunting. With a 45-liter capacity, it offers ample space for all your gear.
Its versatile double-sided Beaver Tail Panel system can be used for rifle/bow support and external gear carry. Unmatched in functionality, the MARKHOR-45™ boasts a continuous YKK zipper opening granting easy "clamshell" access to the main compartment. It also comes with our most advanced ergonomic suspension system that includes a well-padded waist belt, an adjustable height shoulder straps system, and a robust internal frame to ensure comfortable carrying of heavy loads.
Thoughtfully designed to keep you ready for anything mother nature throws at you.
For added convenience, two 3-D top pockets can accommodate our organizer pouches, while a zipper pass-through offers quick access to the main compartment.
The main compartment of the MARKHOR-45™ is lined with orange high-visibility 210-D ripstop nylon, ensuring visibility in low-light environments. The sides are equipped with loop panels for enhanced modularity and customization, and two ToughMesh pockets line the front panel for additional gear storage. It features a hydration/laptop sleeve with a loop-faced MOLLE-Air panel, perfect for attaching organizational pouches via MOLLE or hook-and-loop.
There’s a large, zippered pocket at the bottom of the MARKHOR-45 ideal for camp shoes, rain gear, or extra clothes. Additionally, it comes with two bottle pockets featuring elastic retentions for added security.
Beaver Tail Panel: The ultimate gear management system.
One standout feature of the MARKHOR-45™ is its unique double-sided “Beaver Tail Panel” with DAM (Durable Arms Management) design. The reversible and removable Beaver Tail Panel offers gear storage, attachment, and compression capabilities.
The front "Sport" side features elastic cord routing, a Hypalon "Duck Foot" for securing an extra layer, and ELASTO Gear Locks for holding tripods, axe handles, and trekking poles. The reversed "Tactical" side presents a CORDURA MOLLE-Air panel with a loop ID panel and a slim pocket for maps. The DAM system, comprising the Beaver Tail, vertical webbing, and removable retention straps, enables secure carrying of firearms and archery equipment without the need for additional straps or slings.
Advanced suspension system to comfortably carry heavy loads.
For added convenience, two 3-D top pockets can accommodate our organizer pouches, while a zipper pass-through offers quick access to the main compartment.
The MARKHOR-45 features our most advanced suspension features for exceptional comfort: A shoulder harness offering five adjustable positions for different torso lengths. The EVA foam shoulder straps, breathable mesh back, and elastic sternum strap further enhance comfort. The ergonomically molded polycarbonate (PC) internal frame with "virtual stays" curves and flexes with your body, while top load-adjusters maintain a proper center of gravity.
The removable "pull-forward" padded waist belt not only ensures easy tightening but also helps distribute weight off your shoulders. The waist belt also features webbing attachments for flashlights, knives, or small pouches.
Lastly, to ensure optimal weight distribution, the MARKHOR-45™ includes four side compression straps and Hypalon MOLLE-Air side panels for low-profile MOLLE attachment solutions.
