The SOG Scout does more than what you'd expect from a 24L pack. The panel load- ing main compartment utilizes every cubic inch with multiple interior pockets, padded laptop sleeve, hydration carry, and MOLLE loop field. Accessing the inside main compart- ment via the Quad-Zip means finding gear from the bot- tom of the pack doesn't require unpacking everything on top of it. Any extra or bulky gear can be cinched on to the pack's side compression straps, attached to the Hypalon MOLLE field, or held on by the Scout's unique wire long item carry. The top moulded panel allows quick access to smaller items due to the suspension, a fully loaded pack can be carried comfortably whether going for two miles or twenty miles. dESCrIPTIoN: Padded shoulder straps, rigid suspension, and stowable, padded hip belt make it comfortable carry heavy loads for extended periods of time by taking the weight off your shoulders. Sternum strap with whistle stabilizes the pack and gives carrier an emergency audio alert. Quad-zip full access main compartment allows for quick access to any part of the voluminous interior, such as being able to quickly get at items at the bottom of the pack due to the panel-loading design. Built-in hydration sleeve with hose pass-through allows easy access to water (hydration blad- der sold separately). Internal laptop sleeve keeps electronics safe. External long item carry allows access to and ease to carry long objects like rifles, bows & fishing rods.Large zipper pulls allows easy opening with or without gloves. Side compres- sion straps to hold the load closer to the user for better weight distribution and balance. 2mm PE sheet w/ 15mm aluminum stave suspension to distribute weight for com- fortability. Kodra 500D nylon material with a polyurethane coating for long-lasting durability, reliability, and water resistance.
