Black Ember is launching their Gen03 Collection of Modular-Packs. The Gen03 Collection utilises new ultra-light-weight and low profile Mod-Clasp hardware, featuring Acetal & laser-cut Hypalon components.
In their most minimal form Black Ember Gen03 packs are designed to give you the right amount of space and key features to get you through the next 24 to 48 hours of your life.
Black Ember backpacks are durable, highly functional, weatherproof, packs designed to house and protect your critical gear.
Each material has been carefully chosen for its particular performance characteristics and aesthetic quality: including their highest performance X50 4-layer, Black-Camo fabric made by Dimension Polyant, USA.
The backpacks are designed and crafted in obsessive functional and aesthetic detail. Black Ember has designed, developed, and manufactured their own cast-aluminium hardware and has also partnered with Fidlock, the innovative German manufacturer of magnetic, mechanical locking hardware.
Built for everyday carry in urban environments, the ergonomic, form fitted 3D shoulder-straps support the pack’s load comfortably & each pack features an airflow back-panel to reduce heat and perspiration.
Black Ember packs are modular. So you get to build your own your kit, specify it just the way you want it, and even change your set-up over time. If you need more space and want to customise your pack, you can add Mods (modular accessories) to get the custom build you’re looking for.
The Mods allow for dedicated pouches fully packed and ready to attach, such as a camera dedicated pouch, a media pouch, or a passport travel ready pouch. Mods can be attached both inside and outside of Black Ember Gen03 packs.
The DSLR Case is a 7 litre fanny-pack that is designed to carry and protect DSLR/SLR camera equipment. The DSLR Case is also modular & can be attached to the base or the top of the Citadel Backpack like the hood of a back country pack.
The 25 litre Citadel Pack is a deceptively simple design and features a primary zipper that runs nearly the full length of the pack, as well as an external access laptop sleeve. The Citadel is compatible with all Gen03 Mods.
Mods can be attached both inside and outside of the Citadel.The Citadel is also specially designed to work in tandem with the Black Ember DSLR Case.
The 30 litre Holdall Msngr is a hybrid messenger pack featuring an innovative top zipper and a leather wrap handle integrated seamlessly into the form of the pack. The Holdall Msngr features an ergonomic shoulder strap with quick-release aluminium hardware and can be set-up for either right or left handed use.
The Holdall Msngr is compatible with all Gen03 Mods. Mods can be attached both inside and outside of the Holdall. The Holdall also features an external access laptop sleeve.
The 30 litre TL3 Pack is a sleek urban top-loader featuring an innovative top access with the weatherproof qualities of a roll-top backpack and the convenience of a zipper access pack.
The TL3 pack also features a mag-lock buckle connected top handle integrated seamlessly into the form of the pack. The TL3 Pack is compatible with all Gen03 Mods. Mods can be attached both inside and outside of the TL3.
