Tactical Tailor // The Nisqually Backpack

Introducing | Tactical Tailor’s The Nisqually Backpack, part of their Pacific Northwest Pack Series.

The Pacific Northwest Pack Series began as a project to fulfill a solicitation for a suite of packs for US Special Operations Command. Our designs for this request were brought about with input from actual SOF soldiers who took these packs to the field throughout the design process and brought back their impressions and recommendations for improvements. We took their advice back to our designers who then continually refined the packs until they met the exacting standards of these elite soldiers.

The PNW Nisqually pack is a patrol pack for heavy loads, ideal for wear with body armor in temperate locations. At 4.5 pounds, it’s the middle-weight member of the the PNW pack family, so it can carry a lot without being a burden. With a capacity of 4100 cubic inches, it can carry just about anything you might need in the field.

The Nisqually incorporates many of the same features as the larger packs in the series, like the RTO and hydration pass-throughs, side compression straps and reinforced carry handle. The internal attachment for the PRC-117G pouch, side pocket pass-throughs and the external access to the main compartment hidden behind the main outside pocket are also present. Finally, like our other packs, the Nisqually is STRLLS and H harness compatible for airborne operations

Along with this new line of packs, we’ve also introduced upgrades to our traditional straps and belt in the form of our Low Profile and Low Profile Adjustable Super Straps and Ergo Super Belt.

These new designs add even more comfort along with added functionality and adjustability. The Nisqually Pack is also available in a discounted kit form which includes the pack, our Fight Light MALICE Pack Frame, Low Profile Adjustable Super Straps and 34” Ergo Super Belt.
