Kifaru Backpacks

Kifaru's flagship internal-frame hunting pack: 3,400 ci (56 L) of 500D CORDURA on a Kutthroat-derived 24-inch composite-stay suspension, sold complete for $550 rather than as a bag for the brand's Duplex Lite or new ARK frames. Top and full panel access, dual 530 ci spotting-scope side pockets, and Kifaru's PALS/K-clip accessory ecosystem define it, with a comfortable rating to 80 lb loads.

A day pack for the ARK frame designed with champion archer Levi Morgan: a 2,200 ci top-loading main bag with 120 ci dual-access lid plus the included 750 ci Cinch breakaway daypack, about 3,070 ci (50 L) total. A full-length pleated load shelf, autolock weapon straps, and a Chamber Pocket organizer round out the $875 complete system ($375 bag set + $500 25-inch ARK frame).

Kifaru's flagship multiday hauler, redesigned in G2 form for the carbon-fiber ARK frame: 4,720 ci (77 L) split across a 3,670 ci clamshell main bag, 340 ci lid, and dual 355 ci side pockets, with a horseshoe front zip for fast access. The complete system is $850 ($350 bag + $500 25-inch ARK frame) and weighs 6 lb 6 oz. The G2 swaps sewn MOLLE for laser-cut laminate tracks, adds a built-in weapon-carry sleeve, and moves compression straps outside the zippers.

A 4,900 ci (80 L) multiday workhorse designed in the open with Rokslide community input — Kifaru's first pack produced in its Riverton, WY facility. A near-full-length two-way side zipper, enclosed spotting-scope pocket, and Hellbender-style front stash pocket define the asymmetric layout. Complete price is $850 ($350 bag + $500 ARK frame); the bag weighs 2 lb 12 oz, roughly 5.9 lb as a full system.

Kifaru's guide-driven expedition hauler since 2019, updated in Gen 2 form (fall 2025) with a full-length main zipper. Total capacity is 6,500 ci (107 L): a 4,340 ci main bag, 1,000 ci expandable snow collar, and dual 580 ci zippered side pockets sized for spotting scopes. The complete system is $850 ($350 bag + $500 25-inch carbon ARK frame) and weighs 6 lb 7 oz.

Kifaru's keg-shaped internal-frame day pack: 2,800 ci (46 L) of 500D Cordura and X-Pac with a Reckoning-style full-length front zipper, built-in hydration sleeve, and dual bottle pockets. Twin 22-inch composite stays keep it carry-on legal, and it runs the same Duplex shoulder straps and waistbelt as Kifaru's frame packs. Expandable with any Kifaru top lid; $450 complete at 3.39 lbs.

The newest bag in Kifaru's Expedition line, blending the Dall and Kutthroat into a 6,580 ci (108 L) external-frame pack with dual access via a horseshoe zipper and snow collar. Ultragrid and EPX400 fabric makes it the most weatherproof bag in Kifaru's lineup, with integrated pockets that replace add-on belt pouches. Complete system is $877 ($377 bag + $500 25-inch carbon ARK frame) at 6 lb 4 oz.

A day pack built around an oversized cargo sling: 1,900 ci (31 L) in the main bag plus an extended load shelf Kifaru rates at effectively unlimited volume, made to haul tree stands, bait barrels, full-bodied antelope, and boned-out meat. Complete price is $825 ($325 bag + $500 ARK frame), with the bag itself at 2 lb 9.6 oz — the lightest complete system of Kifaru's ARK hunting bags.

Kifaru's answer to Stryker XL owners who wanted more room: roughly 2,250 ci (37 L) of internal storage — 350 ci more than the Stryker XL — plus a large Bane-style stash pocket and an X-Pac meat sling that wipes clean after a pack-out. Complete price is $875 ($375 bag + $500 ARK frame), about 3 lb for the bag and 6.1 lb as a system, making it Kifaru's compact do-everything meat hauler.

Kifaru's load-hauling day bag: a 2,400 ci (39 L) full-zip panel loader (2,250 ci main + 150 ci lid) that bridges a daypack and a full expedition system, sold complete for $850 ($350 bag + $500 ARK frame). A full-length load shelf positioned high on the frame, a bottom carry sleeve for rifles or tripods, and laser-cut MOLLE define the current ARK-era version, at about 3 lb for the bag and roughly 6.1 lb complete.

Kifaru's hunting/EDC crossover day pack: 1,960 ci (32 L) split between a 1,770 ci full-clamshell main compartment and a 190 ci dual-pocket lid, wrapped in 500D Cordura with MOLLE webbing and compression straps for weapons, tripods, or climbing sticks. Sold in Coyote Brown, Black, and Ranger Green at $475 with belt; 3 lb 15 oz bag only.
