Kifaru, well-known and regarded for its American-made, backcountry-hunting gear have announced major upgrades to the Hoodlum, the company's go-to expedition pack built for long hauls. In its initial, 2019 iteration, the Hoodlum was a modular, rugged pack promising reliable comfort even under heavy loads. Now with a new MOLLE system, additional storage solutions and upgraded materials, the Hoodlum is re-engineered for hunters who demand the absolute most out of their gear.
Taking into account years of guide feedback, the Hoodlum now offers additional storage space throughout the pack, from the main compartment through the side pockets, to accommodate larger gear. It also comes with additional gear storage with a lower front sleeve to secure rifles, bows, tripod legs, trekking poles or other essentials. The modularity of the Hoodlum, in addition to its comfort-under-load capabilities, make this pack a go-to backcountry pack.
