A simple day pack of the Finnish Airborne Jaegers (LJK). If you're looking for an outdoors and everyday pack for the rest of your life, the Backpack 202, as the manufacturer calls it, is a bombproof choice!

The idea is to carry this pack empty in a large rucksack and take it out for short patrols. As this little pack is intended to carry anything from lightweight recce equipment to radios and even anti-tank mines (10 kg / 22 lb each), it is ultra-tough. It is still very streamlined and lightweight, so it makes for an excellent everyday backpack.

Simplicity is bliss

All features and the lack of some are dictated by function and necessity. The result is light, simple, and durable.

Two compartments, one large and one small, both close with heavy-duty zippers. No dividers, sleeves, or pockets inside. Small items go into the smaller compartment.

Simple, adjustable shoulder straps with durable ladder lock buckles and carrying handles on top.

Note! The shoulder straps are not quick-adjustable. To provide a strong setting that doesn't shift, the webbing is first weaved through the ladder lock once. After adjusting the length, weave the free end of the webbing once more through the free slot to lock it.

Pro-Tip: The smaller British PLCE Liner Bag is a perfect fit for this backpack. Forget flimsy tote bags and get this eternally durable bag instead!

Pro-Tip 2: If you carry this pack a lot with heavier contents consider these Särmä TST Sling Pads for added comfort. Just note those are sold as single pieces.

Warranty and guarantee

The product has a 2-year warranty against material and manufacturing defects.
