Kelty Redwing Tatical. Or 5.11 Rush72. Or go external frame pack.

Had both issued to me over the years.

The 5.11 i have is over 10 years old now. Itll hold 100lbs no problem but itll be hell hauling it around. Tough but not very ergonomic. Great to throw on a truck or move short distances.

Kelty took their outdoor line of backpacks and beefed them up with thicker nylon. 4ish years old. It's the best blend I've seen of tactical bs and actually using it as a 2 or 3 day pack.

I've had 100lbs in a backpack a handful of times in life. It is hell once you hit inclines or switchbacks. Understand your calorie requirement just got jacked to the tits for the next few days to recover.

Awesome thank you! It’s good to see someone mentioning 5.11 you were the first one to do so. There is a 5.11 store near where I live and I am pretty impatient when it Comes to waiting on things so I went and got the rush72 2.0 this morning, loaded it up and used it for a workout and I gotta say so far so good! No creaks or snaps so far from this bag. Thanks again!

Good to hear my dude. Hopefully it holds up! Mine has been thru hell but not necessarily loaded with 100lb constantly. Good luck with your training.
