We're deciding on the line of pack bags and Talons that we will initially offer.

The 6300 bag is a dual drawstring with a snow collar. It is roughly 4200 below the collar, 1600 in the collar, and 500 in water bottle pockets. It has ice axe loops, and comes with a flat lid. An upgrade will be a pocketed top lid of 500 ci and you can add a side zip for an upcharge. Note that our 6300 ci is comparable to other 7000-7500 ci bags. It is LARGE, but used without the snow collar it's still good for weekend trips. And it compresses down to nothing.

The smaller bag will be around 4300 ci. Kevin and I both think that a rolltop makes more sense for the smaller bag. The rolltop should be lighter, more waterproof, and should be a bit cheaper to cut and sew. This bag would come with ice axe loops, water bottle pockets, and you would be able to run a top lid if you wanted or even just two over the top straps.

For Talons we intend to offer a Flat Talon compression panel with a small zippered pocket, a larger Base Talon of about 1000 ci that is affordable to manufacture, and the Day Talon which is 1000 ci with two zippered pockets and its' own harness so it can be used as a daypack.
