Clever modular system allows reconfiguration
to optimize individual carry and organizational preferences
CORTEZ,
Colo., Oct. 19, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Osprey
Packs, a leader in creating top-quality, high-performance
innovative carry solutions, is revolutionizing its approach to the
everyday carry (EDC) category with the launch of Archeon™, a
seven-piece, modular pack system with premium aesthetics adaptable
in dynamic urban environments. In addition to purpose-built design
and no-compromise functionality, the Archeon family is sustainably
designed and all packs carry a certified bluesign®
Product designation. Archeon is set to debut in spring 2024.
The Archeon family has a distinctive aesthetic and tactile
finish, achieved through a robust
bluesign® approved carbonate coating applied to a
bluesign® approved 100% recycled 420D ripstop
nylon. This coating enhances durability and improves water
resistance, safeguarding valuable electronics against the elements.
The collection incorporates cutting-edge materials and construction
techniques, like precision laser-cutters, advanced synthetic
rubber, CNC machined aluminum, 100% recycled high tenacity nylon,
100% premium recycled seatbelt-style webbing, and form-fitting
compression-molded EVA backpanels. These features provide a
comfortable carrying experience, excellent breathability,
structural integrity and a sleek appearance.
In addition to a differentiating aesthetic, the Archeon family's
standout feature is its unique system concept. Each silhouette
brings purpose to your carry and more value is unlocked as the
packs interact and stack features. The backpacks serve as the
system's foundation, allowing other Archeon components to be
attached via clever, quick-release accessory straps. The Archeon
system can be combined and reconfigured to meet individual carrying
needs and preferences.
The Archeon collection is well-suited for tech-heavy users, and
the packs feature premium pocketing and organization for protection
and quick access to cables, devices and laptops. All packs are
gender-neutral in size and offered in two colorways: Black and a
slate-toned green, Scenic Valley. Key styles include a three-volume
daypack range: the Archeon 40 ($300.00), Archeon 30 ($250.00) and Archeon 24 ($200.00). The daypacks offer advanced
organization, Archeon accessory integration and laptop
compatibility (fits most devices up to 16 inches). The larger
volume 40-liter model is made to extend from EDC to travel and
features an adjustable suspension, a removable padded hipbelt and
two Tech Stash pockets.
The Archeon accessory assortment allows carry to be reconfigured
to meet daily demands. The Archeon Sling 7 ($90.00) is a sleek, ambidextrous sling pack that
can be used alone or mounted to any Archeon pack with lash straps.
A robust laptop carrier, the Archeon Laptop Case
($100.00) is a streamlined sleeve
with added organization and thoughtful features, like horizontal or
vertical-oriented carry, an included shoulder strap, a secondary
sleeve device for a tablet or portable screen, and Tech Stash
pockets.
The Archeon Chest Rig ($80.00) is the most novel component in the
system with an ultra-versatile small design that fits everyday
essentials and can be worn forwards, backwards, mounted to a pack
or paired with the Archeon 40's removable hipbelt to make a waist
pack. The Archeon Pouch ($50.00) rounds out the range. Catering to a more
minimal EDC, the Archeon Pouch includes a removable shoulder strap,
expandable storage that can accommodate a 32 oz Hydro Flask, and
mounting points to integrate with all Archeon packs. The pouch can
also be combined with the Archeon 40's removable hipbelt.
Ranging in price from $50.00 -
$300.00, Archeon will be
available beginning in February 2024
on osprey.com and at specialty retailers in over 60 countries
worldwide.
