Description

Krik of Black Owl Outdoors gives an update on one of his favorite backpacks of all time, the Helags 40 by Fjallraven. When Krik first decided to purchase the pack he had one heck of a time trying to find it, and now they are even harder to find... but why?

hey what's up Turtles Creek here with blackout outdoors

got an update video for you today on this beautiful beautiful beautiful spring day it's probably 50 degrees Fahrenheit right now it's still decent amount of snow but the Sun feels so warm today

finally finally warm from the Sun this winter's been it's been cold getting into the update so I had a lot of questions about the availability of the fjällräven hello Alex 40 pack which I'm wearing right now few reasons why I love this pack and I was really excited about this pack I wanted to push it because I feel like there's really not a lot of other you know packs on the market is the two side pockets they're really really nice in the sense that most packs that are designed specifically for backpacking and trekking is that there's not a lot of Adam excuse-me exterior pockets or a lot of organization and pocket form on the outside of the pack so that's why I love this pack because there's two large pockets that fit you know 40 ounce water bottles just slew a slew of items that you don't need to put on the inside of the pack and they're accessible from the outside the new packs don't have that when the other features I really like about this pack are the straps on the bottom features buckle is really nice to put you know sleeping pad ground tarp anything use your imagination to be able to strap to the bottom of the pack now some packs have little attachment points you can put your own sort of webbing or system through there but the fact that these have them it just makes it so much nicer and easier from you know sort of consumer standpoint so those two features are not featured from my research on the new packs from fjällräven that are replacing this hello and it's a line of packs and they're calling them the Kai packs ka I PA c ke Kai packs and there's three versions of that I think 28 litre 38 and then a 58 and you know still going to be great packs no doubt in my mind considering what fjällräven is is putting out on the market their quality and how much I've been impressed with this packs build and cereals and stuff but with those two features missing from those packs I really you know I guess I'm sort of just kind of upset that they're not making this pack anymore and I don't know why I don't know why i discontinued it but they have so what I want to do you know kind of do a call to arms to a degree or or you know to to see let's hit them up that's what I'm up and see what they say you know on behalf of black out you see in our review if you like this pack sign up messages denim emails Facebook Twitter Bascom asking why they're making this pack anymore see if we can you know really figure out their fault process of discontinuing this pack so you know sourcing bringing some sad news to you say hey this packs been discontinued a lot of people have been asking about it but it's no longer being made so hope you enjoy the video sorry for the bad news

this is Craig signing out on a beautiful beautiful March spring day it's how you Turtles
