Hill People Gear Umlindi Backpack V1

« Back

Umlindi means "watchman", "guardian", or "caretaker" in Zulu. As we neared completion on the design of this pack, we were approached by a South African who is standing up a rhino poaching interdiction unit. The effort is entirely SA based and involves locals with both military and LE backgrounds.

The "Lindi" is an exercise in making the largest pack practical for use without lifter straps. It carries very well with just the shoulder harness it comes with and carries even better as a large lumbar pack with the addition of the optional Recon Belt.

The Umlindi has the following features:

500d Cordura Construction
Velcro opening lumbar pad for use with a Prairie Belt
removable plastic frame sheet in slot pocket with a single stay channel and 7075 stay
Ute style pulley compression system
large dual wand pockets. big enough for a USGI 1qt with canteen cup on it.
3 reinforced hang tabs inside of pack on suspension side
hose port
half depth slot pocket inside of pack on back side
bottom compression straps
single top compression strap
parachute cord tool loop in back centre
accepts a number of accessories

Comparative Volume: 2000ci / 30L

Dimensional Volume: 1358.50 in3

Dimensional Volume (DV) is NOT the number used by manufacturers to denote capacity. To get a cubic inch number that you can use to compare to what you're accustomed to, multiply DV by 1.5 as a rule of thumb. Bigger packs can use an even bigger multiplier - up to 1.7.
