NEW TRIZIP™BY CAMELBAK® FOCUSES ON EASE AND SPEED
Soldiers Rave About TriZip – It’s the Most Comfortable and Efficient Tactical Pack for Heavy Loads Featuring the Mystery Ranch Futura Harness
Petaluma, CA (January 15, 2009)
CamelBak® announces the new TriZip™pack as
part of its Maximum Gear line for 2009. The CamelBak mission to provide quality,
innovative and durable tools in the field resulted in the creation of the TriZip. The pack
allows users to customize their fit with multiple access points, opening fully to access any
warfighter’s gear with ease and speed.
Keeping in step with the need for speed, this tactical pack incorporates side release buckles so users can quickly detach their packs from shoulder harnesses, upper and lower compression straps and waist belt. The unique 3-zip design allows for fast access to gear from multiple points, making it easier for warfighters to stay on the move. Also integrated into the design is the hook-and-loop panel for the hassle-free removal of nametags and unit badges, an elastic drawstring pocket in the main storage compar™ent accommodating a second reservoir or laptop, and zippered side pockets and clips. The printed MOLLE AUC webbing provides the same disruptive pattern of camouflage fabric both visually and through night vision equipment, while maintaining the full functionality, durability and reliability of standard solution dyed webbing.
Made from lightweight and durable 500 D Cordura® material, which is 37% lighter in weight than standard 1000 D Cordura®, this is the most comfortable tactical pack for carrying heavy loads. The new TriZip also has the patented Futura Harness by Mystery Ranch, allowing the user to custom fit the harness to their specific torso size as well as make adjus™ents if the pack is being worn with or without armor.
TriZip features the elements CamelBak is known for, including the HydroLink™Big Bite™Valve, HydroGuard™Anti-Microbial Technology, HydroLock™for secure shut off flow, and grommet drain holes located at the bottom of each pocket and compar™ent. Along with a separate insulated hydration compar™ent, complete with reservoir hang loop, the balance of the TriZip design provides warfighters with access to their hydration systems with ease and speed.
Currently available, the new TriZip pack measures 20 x 13 x 11.5 inches and comes in four colors: Army Universal Camo, Black, Coyote or MultiCam.
