The end result is superior comfort in comparison to the old Finnish military issue systems. One of the most valuable features of the RP80 carrying system is the adjustable back length. The system can be adjusted to fit users from 160 up to 200 cm \/ 5' 3\" - 6' 6\" tall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAluminium frame\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe frame was designed especially for the RP80 rucksack, we didn´t simply take some outdated design and recycle it. Compared to the decades-old Finnish military issue frames this one has a bottom shelf, wider and taller overall dimensions, and two parallel vertical reinforcement rods on both sides of the center instead of a single centered one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShoulder harness\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe padding is thermal molded and stitched onto 1000D Cordura on top of which all the straps etc. are bar-tacked. What really sets this design apart from the old Finnish military issue harnesses is the big pads against the back which really make a great difference compared to just a flat length of wide webbing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rucksacks back length and overall fit are adjusted by lowering or lifting the attachment height of the shoulder harness. The load lifter straps that run from the top of the shoulder harness to the frame are used to adjust the balance on the go, by loosening the straps the pack hangs further away from your body and the weight is transferred onto the hips. By tightening the straps the pack moves closer to your body and more weight is put on the shoulders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lower adjustment of the shoulder harness is done using two, virtually indestructible, welded steel D-rings which also offer a means of quick release by pulling the attached webbing handles upwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHip belt\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd once more, also the hip belt was designed from scratch instead of just copying some ancient Finnish military design. The hip belt is thoroughly padded and topped with PALS webbing for pouch attachment. The big lower back pillow can be opened up for the hip belt to be tucked away when you don't want to use it. The construction is overall really strongly padded and rigid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eModular and configurable\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverall volume and many other features of the rucksack are easily modified according to user-specific needs:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTie-down straps\u003c\/strong\u003e: by running a couple of utility straps through the vertical attachment points on the back you can easily tie a sleeping mat or similar bundles to the far back of the pack.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSide pouches\u003c\/strong\u003e: add a few XL utility pouches for extra pack volume and added organizing options.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHip belt\u003c\/strong\u003e: attach a bunch of pouches here for easy access to critical gear.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDaypack lid\u003c\/strong\u003e: a quick-detach top lid which transforms into a small daypack, possibly the smartest way of integrating a daypack into your sustainment load.
