Note: I ended this listing temporarily so I could adjust the shipping metrics. The USPS raised their rates July 12. This item will now ship for less than it originally would have. I apologize for the inconvenience to all the folks who are interested in this item. You will have to re-add it to your watch list in order for me to send you a new offer.

Hit the trails or complete your vintage gorpcore aesthetic with this classic 1992-era "Redwing" internal frame backpack from Kelty. Highly regarded for its rugged engineering and legendary load distribution, this pack features a dual internal aluminum stave support secured by tight hook-and-loop enclosures. Woven from a heavy-duty, water-resistant tactical nylon canvas in a timeless olive green and black colorway. Designed for comprehensive gear organization, it boasts a massive top-loading main compartment alongside two elongated side zip-pockets and dual front zip-compartments. Outfitted with a thick, ergonomically padded waist belt, adjustable padded shoulder straps, a sternum strap, and rugged branded zippers finished with distinct yellow utility ribbon pulls.

• Special Seller Fleet Note: I have an identical second unit of this exact vintage Kelty Redwing pack available in stock! The second pack is identical in size and layout, with the exception of one side-pocket zipper currently seized due to vintage storage corrosion. If you are interested in purchasing both packs as a pair for a custom restoration, rental fleet, or parts backup, please message me directly prior to checkout. I will gladly supply additional photos, adjust the item pricing, and consolidate the shipping weight variables for you.
  
  
• Care: Machine or hand wash or spot clean with mild soap, rinse thoroughly, and air dry. Remove metal staves prior to machine washing!
