Direct Action Minimalist Backpack Nylon 20 l - Black

The black backpack with a capacity of 20 litres was developed for carrying basic equipment during tactical operations, training, patrols and outdoor activities.

Its compact shape supports efficient movement in the field and does not restrict mobility, while the well-planned arrangement of compartments and pockets allows the most important pieces of equipment to be organised conveniently.

durable nylon, well-thought-out structural layout

The model is made from 100% nylon with a grammage of 170 g/m2. The material used is lightweight, which helps reduce the weight of the entire backpack, while also offering good wear resistance, abrasion resistance and durability under loads encountered during field use.

Zips provide access to individual compartments and pockets, while zip pulls made of paracord make operation easier when wearing gloves. In the lower part of the main compartment and side pockets, drainage openings have been added to help remove water and limit its accumulation inside the backpack.

After removing the removable stiffener, the Minimalist model can be flattened and used as a lighter backup backpack. This solution makes it suitable both as a primary gear carrier and as an additional pack carried inside larger luggage.

Main compartment and gear organisation

The main compartment with a capacity of 18 litres is intended for carrying larger items of equipment. Its layout allows it to hold, among other things, spare clothing, rations, personal protective equipment, camping gear and other items needed during short-term field activities.

On the rear wall of the compartment there is a large pocket intended for the removable stiffener, which helps the backpack retain its shape and supports more stable carrying of equipment. Inside, there is also a mounting point for a water tank, helping keep the water tank in a stable position. The interior layout helps organise equipment and reduce its shifting during movement.

In the upper part of the backpack there is an additional pocket accessible from the outside. It is closed with a zip, and its location makes it easier to quickly access items used more often than the gear stored in the main compartment. It can hold, among other things, a map, documents, glasses, gloves, navigation aids or small accessories.

Side accessory pockets, velcro panel

On the sides of the backpack there are 2 pockets fastened with zips. The enclosed design protects the contents from falling out during dynamic movement.

The side pockets can be used as needed - as magazine pouches, a place for extra water or additional equipment requiring quick access. In the upper part of the backpack there is a velcro panel for patches or emblems.

Pocket for optoelectronics

The backpack is equipped with a separate pocket intended for carrying optoelectronics. Its design helps secure devices such as a night vision device, thermal imaging device or other compact observation equipment.

Inside there is a loop made of paracord, allowing a device or an additional item of equipment to be attached. This solution helps reduce the risk of accidental gear loss after opening the pocket and makes it easier to keep things organised.

The optoelectronics pocket can also be used to carry other delicate or valuable accessories that should be separated from heavier equipment stored in the main compartment.

Compression system and transport panel

The front panel is equipped with elastic cross cords intended for backpack compression. They make it possible to reduce external volume, stabilise the contents and secure equipment carried on the front. The system can also be used for quick attachment of light clothing, gloves, a cover or another item that does not fit in the main compartment.

Additional space is provided by a stowable transport panel. When deployed, it creates an external pocket in which you can carry a helmet, camouflage net, jacket, protective helmet, or other irregularly shaped gear. When rolled up, the panel does not take up usable space and remains integrated into the backpack's construction.

adjustable shoulder straps

The Minimalist model is equipped with a classic carry system featuring wide, contoured shoulder straps. Their design helps distribute weight across a larger shoulder area and reduce pressure points during movement.

The shoulder straps feature length adjustment and buckles for quick release. The upper carry handle allows the backpack to be carried by hand, hung up or quickly lifted off the ground.
