I’ve never done a bag review on Kifaru and I’m not even sure why. Considering I look through everything with an Everyday Carry lens, I suppose it’s because I was procrastinating until Kifaru launched their long-awaited and highly anticipated urban friendly EDC pack. Well, my friends… that wait is almost over.
The new Kifaru Antero EDC Pack
Kifaru has been slowly sharing details on their forum for months and it sounds like they are tooling up now to manufacture the pack. Here are the specs:
- 19″ tall x 6″ deep x 10″ wide
- Overall is 1500 Cubic inches
- 1000 D Cordura lined with 400 D Pack cloth
- Internal removable HDPE frame sheet
- Omni Belt compatible with storage behind the back panel
- Dual hydration ports under the side flaps
- Inner mesh pocket
- Chamber compatible
- Laptop compatible (up to 15″)
- 6 channels x 4 strips of standard Pals webbing on front
- Water bottle pockets are 4.25 in diameter and 8 inches deep (Nalgene Friendly)
- Top pocket will hold ballistic / sun glasses and most cellphones
- Loop on inside of top pocket for keys
- Side compression with SR buckles for easily attaching tripods, walking sticks, etc
- Grab handle bottom center
- Full panel access with 4 way zipper (matched pair up top, one on both bottom corners)
It all sounds great and I’m looking forward at getting a closer look at the Antero. As you can see below, it has a much cleaner design and leaner profile than the Urban Zippy.
