Tehama Backpack 37L

The 37L Tehama Backpack is a MOLLE-compatible & CCW-enabled tactical backpack with 2257 cu. in. / 37L volume. Designed as a companion to the smaller Lassen Backpack, the Tehama’s main difference is increased capacity due to its loop-lined middle compartment. As a departure from previous Maxpedition packs, the Tehama Backpack uses molded tooth zippers, made with individually injected, self-lubricating elements for long-term low-maintenance use. Each pack comes with a removeable sheet frame equipped with an user-shapeable aluminum stay for added support. The frame and/or stay can be easily removed for significant weight reduction. Expandable bottle holders on both sides can hold hydration or other long/narrow objects such as tripods. Thoughtful design throughout for comfortable carry and ease of access. Adjustable and removeable waist belt for stability for most body sizes. Last but not least, a large exterior loop areas for attaching name tape or your favorite morale patches.
