Tired of stuffing big stuff in a small bag? Here's a 3-Day Assault Pack for daily use with more capacity than normal backpacks.
- A mid-size 35-liter (2135 cu in) 3-Day pack
- Loads of external attachment possibilities
- Goes as hand luggage when flying
Like the regular Assault pack, but larger
Sometimes the youngest sibling becomes bigger than others: the Särmä Assault Pack is a familiar item from Särmä and dates back over a decade. Through feedback and our own use, it has been developed and refined. We took all that experience to develop this 3-Day pack as a larger alternative.
Neither of these is better than the other, just better for you. Some uses demand a compact pack, in other times you need a bit more volume. The Särmä Large Assault Pack meets the latter need while retaining the tried and tested features and details from the regular one.
For people who travel by air, this backpack is suitable as carry-on hand luggage with most airlines. Tighten the compression straps and probably all of them will accept it. The boxy shape and generous size is generally great for travel use.
Some color may transfer from the product before the first wash. Machine wash with a delicate program.
How to pack
- Generous main compartment that opens fully
- Two smaller external pockets for ease of use
- Mesh inner sleeves for organizing
- MOLLE/PALS loops for external pouches
- Hydration bladder compatible (bladder not included)
- Bottom straps for carrying rolls
In the latest batch, we updated the zipper pullers to silent cords. There can still be some of the old stock left, so don't be surprised if you get one with jingling metal pullers. If the noise bothers you, you can snip them off with side cutters and use just the cord and polymer stopper, or make your own. Check out this article on how to do it.
How to adjust and carry
- Padded and contoured shoulder straps
- Sternum strap and 37 mm (1.5") wide waist strap
- Four compression straps on the sides
- Two lower and one Y-shaped top compression strap
- All loose ends have hook-and-loop ends to store excess length
- Breathable 3D-mesh against the back and shoulders

Material: 1000D polyester with waterproof PU-coating. The name Assault Pack refers to the looks of the pack, not its use. It is in the Särmä product family instead of the Särmä TST because it isn’t NIR compliant. In other words, it stands out very well in the forest when observed through night vision equipment. Therefore you shouldn’t use either of the Särmä Assault Packs for military training and certainly not actual combat.

Hyvä lisä muuten tuo Yn muotoinen lisäkiristysnauha, kun on näppärä D-rengas vielä lisättynä, saa lisää kamaa varmasti kiinni ja roikkumaan. Ja jos toi alkaa ärsyttään, niin senhän saa irti. Pientä noottia voisin antaa noista kylkien MOLLE-rivistöistä: lähinnä selkää oleva kuja on TODELLA jämpti verrattuna noihin kahteen muuhun kujaan. Kyllähän nauha siitä läpi menee, mutta vähän isommalla kiukulla kuin noista kahdesta muusta. (Kylkiin tuli Mil-Tec Modular System LARGE yleistaskut)
Ensivaikutelma on siis todella hyvä!
EDIT: Oli nyt vähän pidemmässä reissussa mukana ja kolmen päivän kamat meni hyvin sisälle ja ulkopuolelle. Kesti rynkytystäkin hyvin.

Mutta, muuta poikkisanottavaa tästä on kyllä vaikea löytää. Päätaskuun mahtuu mukavasti esim. 24 pakki mallaspirtelöä, ja tilaa jää vielä ylikin. Vetoketjut eivät jätä mitään toivomisen varaa, ja pienen ihmettelyt jälkeen myös sisäpuoliset aputaskut löysivät paikkansa A4 ja isompiekin lehtiöiden, läppärien yms. kuljettamiselle.
Kompressiohihnat ovat riittävän pitkän isommakin takin tms. rullaamiseksi kylkeen kiinni, ja kiitos nerokkaiden nauhatarrojen, ei repussa kuitenkaan ole yhtään ylimääräistä roikkuvaa hihnaa, jos niin vain haluaa.
MOLLE kujastoa on hyvin pitkälle kiitettävästi, eikä minulla ainakaan ollut mitään ongelmia ripustaa pari Mil-Tecin ja Tasmanian Tigerin lisätaskua reppuun kiinni.
Varsinkin tähän hintaan, reppua on liki mahdotonta olla suosittelematta ihmiselle, joka kaipaa kunnollista kantovälinettä arkiseen käyttöön.

Kehitys idea: Siirtäkää tuo lantioremmin kiinnitys niin alas kuin mahdollista. Nykyisellään jos haluaa lantiolta tukea joutuu reppua roikottamaan vähän liian alhaalla.

It's a basic semi-hard plastic plate. Can't really post images as comments sadly.
Have you considered using the Bundeswehr Isomatte? They designed it to work with their Gebirgejager pack, which has no frame. It helps!
Itse kokeilin tunkea sinne bw-repun omaa selkämystä, mutta bw-elephantti alustan leikkaa/taittaa
Pistetään korvan taakse!
M05 lumikuviolle olisi kysyntää
