MATERIALS AND TECH

Whether you’re going to the office on your daily commute, flying to another country to conduct business abroad, or touring an isolated locale only accessible by boat or floatplane, Remote Equipment packs are designed to get you and your gear there. With different backpacks built for specific purposes, we’ve thought of everything so you don’t have to wonder which bag is best for your needs, regardless of where work – or play – might take you. 

Innovation by default means not resting on laurels or taking shortcuts to success; the ability to complete tasks from remote destinations doesn’t happen by chance. It takes preparation and meticulous planning, and the technology incorporated into each style of Remote Equipment backpack lends itself to that mindset, as each bag uses various technologies to ensure every pack design is crafted to meet the needs it was designed from conceptualization to fill.

The need to embed durability and reliability into every facet of Remote Equipment bags extends to our usage of components from YKK Zippers.  Our packs are equipped with YKK AquaGuard zippers, the preeminent water-repellent zipper used in the outdoor industry, and RC Coil Zippers specifically designed for luggage/backpack applications where abrasion resistance is a must. All of our zippers meet the toughest performance requirements.

• Aquagaurd Coating: Polyurethane

We use nylon webbing weave style MIL-W-17337. These webbings are able to resist abrasion greater than a similar polypropylene equivalent. We also find this webbing works excellently with our buckles and locks.
