Soft, Quiet Zipper Pulls

All Badlands Packs feature our custom-designed quiet zipper pulls. The soft rubber pulls also make it easy to access your equipment while wearing gloves.

Welded Zippers

Welded zippers offer the ultimate in waterproof protection -- it's no wonder that you'll find them in key areas on your Badlands packs. We only use the finest zippers and we back that up with our legendary warranty.

Delron Reinforcement

Delron, a stong and flexible material, is used on several of our packs to enhance their shape and function. Delron Reinforced areas help large pockets open clearly for easy access to important gear. Delron is another way we fuse the very best technology and pack building tradition into the best hunting packs in the world!

Ballistic Bottoms

The only place a pack is on more than your back is the ground. To make sure that your Badlands pack never can stand up to years and years of all-season hunting we fit the bottom of our packs with tough-wearing ballistic materials that can take immense abuse.

Arimid Thread Bar Tacks

Arimid Thread is probably the most expensive material used in a Badlands pack. This yellow thread, however, is nearly unbreakable. So whenever you see these yellow bar tacks on your Badlands pack, let it remind you that only the finest materials and construction were used to ensure that we do our part in your successful hunt.

Adjustable Sternum Clips

Perfection and comfort are in the details. Take for example our Adjustable Sternum Clips which adjust vertically on improved sliders to make it easy to find the right fit. They're just another example of how we are always looking to improve the performance of our packs.

Hybrid Suspension

The new Hypervent Suspension from Badlands is the most talked about technology in hunting. The suspension is a hybrid of elevated mesh and molded foam which allows cool air to circulate behind your back but also provides support. You can only hunt as long as your pack is comfortable -- and with Badlands that's as long as it takes!

Functional Side Pockets

Yes, pockets are technology, when your talking about the design that we put into the waist belt pockets on our packs. These pockets are functional and not finger traps. We like to carry our digital cameras, cell phones, and GPS units in these pockets as well as anything that we need instant access to without making a lot of noise.

Fully Molded Waist Belt

A lot of packs look technical on the shelf . . . until you turn them over and look at the suspension. Here at Badlands we believe that the suspension and especially the waist belt are the "business side" of the pack and deserve the finest and latest technology, after all, this is the part of the pack that you will be in contact with throughout your hunt. Badlands has the technology to back you up, literally.
