Savotta Jääkäri M + Side Pockets

Savotta Jääkäri M:

The medium size daypack of the Jääkäri family, capacity approx. 30 litres. The Jääkäri M is an improved model of the Light Border Patrol backpack originally designed for the Finnish Border Guard. The slim design offers unhindered movement in cramped spaces and difficult terrain. The PALS attachment webbing offers a lot of options for mounting of additional pouches and gear to the outside of the pack. An internal plastic frame sheet adds rigidity the the pack, whilst the compression straps help you strap your loads down to a tight package. As a part of its Border Guard heritage the shoulder straps, waist belt and back padding are designed to carry more weight comfortably than most packs of this size.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
A drawcord collar covered with a floating lid closes off the main compartment at the top. A full length side zipper offers quick access to smaller items stored within the main compartment. A zippered pocket inside the lid offers safe storage for your wallet, keys, travel documents and phone.

The floating lid and side compression straps offer a wide range of adjustability to the capacity of the pack. Strap it down tight or loosen it up depending on the carried load. The compression straps allow for further gear to be attached on the outside of the pack if necessary. External side pouches on the bottom can be used to secure tools, tripods etc. strapped to the sides of the pack.

A hydration compartment is attached to the interior back wall. Tube ports on both sides allow you to route the hydration tube from the left or right, while leaving the other port free for other uses such as antennas or cables.

PALS webbing on the hip belt, sides and lid of the pack allow you to attach additional pouches and gear. This system offers numerous options for configuring the pack to suit your specific needs. Not only for pouches though, the PALS webbing can also be used to attach utility straps, shock cord, carabiners etc. Four webbing loops at the bottom can be used to attach utility straps.

MILITARY GRADE MATERIALS
The majority of materials we use for our commercial production are the same which we use in equipment for the Finnish Defence Forces and other defence and security clients. Our most commonly used fabric in load carrying equipment is extremely wear resistant 1000D Cordura, as per FDF specs, with polyurethane coating on the inside. The webbing and edge tape we use are, again as per FDF specs, strong polyester webbing in various widths and thicknesses for different applications.

Our green and M05 camouflage materials and accessories are by default compliant with strict FDF specs for NIR reflection levels, as should be since these same materials are used in official military equipment.

CARRYING SYSTEM
The Jääkäri M features an internal plastic sheet frame, giving it the needed rigidity to stay upright when loaded with awkward and bulky gear.

Both the shoulder harness and waist belt are firmly padded with closed cell foam. The shoulder harness is S-shaped and includes a removable sternum strap.

The forward pulling hip belt is easy to tighten even under load. The side release buckle offers quick and easy opening when needed. The hip belt features an additional cushion for lower back support.

Savotta Side Pouch 4L:

Small four litre backpack side pouch with rudimentary internal organization and external compression strap loops. Really nothing too fancy, but just what you need from a side pouch on your backpack. As a rather small pouch with only four litres capacity these don't fit anything huge, but this also makes these well suited for use on small backpacks with limited height/width on the sides.

The zipper is covered for added water repellency and protection from abrasion and dirt. The vertical webbing on the front keeps the compression straps of your backpack neatly in place over the pouch, allowing them to properly compress the pouch as well. These can also be used as attachment points for bungee cords, carabiners and stuff like that.

A 25 mm webbing loop and D-ring on the top of the rear interior wall allow you to secure small and important stuff, the flat rear compartment offers rudimentary organization for smaller stuff. The bottom and bottom halves of the sides are lined with 210D polyamide for added abrasion resistance. A grommet offers drainage of any water that may seep into the pouch.

The rear features our standard PALS attachment webbing system with tuck tabs. The middlemost horizontal webbing rows were eliminated as they didn’t really do anything besides add weight. We aren’t a ultralight gear manufacturer, but even we don’t like unnecessary weight.
