Jack Pyke 25l Rucksack

One of the most useful forms of luggage for carrying kit onto your shoot is a rucksack and while there are many suitable, few are as handy as Jack Pyke’s longstanding 25L rucky.

Manufactured from 600D Cordura, it’s recently been heavily modified and upgraded. The main pack measures 52 x 32 x 20cm, while the 2x double zipped side pockets measure 28 x 15.5 x 5cm each.

The top features a generously sized over cover, which is part elasticated at the sides for a snug fit, plus has extra padding to protect anything stowed in the main, PVC lined, drawcord toggle fastened, main compartment. This cover fastens down using two strong ABS clip buckle fasteners on adjustable webbing straps. It features a zipped top pocket with a Molle system on the upper face of the hood, while on the front of the pack there are 4x ABS D Rings, for attaching extra accessories. Interestingly, on the outer/back face, positioned centrally, there are 2x accessory loops (one Velcro fastening) for attaching extra kit such as a medium height bipod or closed shooting sticks.

Behind the well-padded shoulder straps of the carrying harness is the ‘Airjet Back Ventilation System’. This keeps air circulating in hot weather and retains warmth in colder weather, therefore offering a high degree of wearer comfort.

All seams are double-stitched and sealed, while the zips are fitted with strong and quite lengthy, green cord pull assists.
