The highest level of high-vis

Even the hardware is custom-made to the correct color (but more on that specific part later). Having worked as a developer, I know this is a serious feat. Some brands don’t even go through all this trouble for their big normal production product runs.

And the end result of all this extra work?

An absolute assault on your senses. You can almost taste how shockingly bold it is. This is the brightest, most hi-vis orange interior we’ve ever done, excessively matched and complete, because the details matter.

Built for any weather, rain, hail or shine 

Waterproof exterior X-Pac fabric means some additional upgrades are necessary. YKK’s reverse coil #10 come standard on the standard-issue CPL pack and thanks to their water-resistant DWR finish, they do great at keeping the rain out. But… well… collab, right?

We hit up our friends at YKK and selected their beefiest water-resistant zipper, the #10 AquaGuard reverse coil. The PU tape on these zippers shakes off a heavy downpour without flinching. Plus, they’re buttery smooth and a pleasure to use.

Laser-cut Hypalon for hand-feel

Speaking of zippers… EVERGOODS use really nice fabric knotted zipper pullers on all their carry products. They work well and they have a unique look. We experimented with some off-the-shelf options as well as some custom options. But ultimately we liked the existing design for the reasons just mentioned.

So how do we upgrade? Well, we selected Hypalon, a classic favorite material. And then we cut them to shape… with lasers. The same design, but laser cut Hypalon. That thick durable coating gives a great tactical experience, easy to grab with or without gloves, and it’s extra durable for thousands and thousands of accesses to your gear.

Designed down to the finest details

These two gents don’t like to cut corners. Our signature hi-vis orange interior wouldn’t be enough. No no. Kevin requested a specific Pantone PMS color code so they could have their crazy tough 420d HT nylon 6,6 with PU coating liner fabric custom-made.

But they didn’t stop there. Kevin went ahead and had all the interior trims and fabrics custom-made and color-matched. Yes, all of them. Zipper coils, zipper tape, zipper pullers, edge binding, webbing, mesh, and the Velcro.

And the end result of all this extra work?

An absolute assault on your senses. You can almost taste how shockingly bold it is. This is the brightest, most hi-vis orange interior we’ve ever done, excessively matched and complete, because the details matter.

Flaming Morale by our Founder

A professional illustrator and a co-founder of Carryology itself, the legendary Hadrien Monloup was commissioned to create the EVERGOODS x Carryology Phoenix artwork (now his 4th collaboration project artwork). And of course, he delivered the heat in molded “3D” silicone rubber.

One patch is included with each CPL24 backpack sold, which is the only way to get your hands on this killer collectible patch. It will never be sold individually.
