That is one seriously well-designed pack. One can tell this was conceived by someone who has struggled on many a portage with a less than ideal portaging pack.

Greetings from the Sunshine Coast of BC 🌞 I just received an Expedition Canoe Pack in the post and WOW.....it is all I hoped for and more. It is just so awesome, I am really impressed with what you get for the price. I mean the handles, the straps, the material, the zipper.....it's just a pack full of joy...🤩...ok, a bit much maybe? Seriously, well done to Recreational Barrel Works! I have a Barrel on the way, I going to loose it when it shows up, I know it....🥳😆
Glad you like the pack. Hope it gets out on a trip when the ice melts.
@@TheHappyCamper Lucky for me the lakes don't ice over here on the West Coast of BC, so it will sooner than later. 🙂
Nice looking, well designed gear Andy's making! I'll be sure to consider on my next pack or barrel purchase. Gear specifically designed for what we do is hard to come by. Way to go Andy!
I love the design of these packs as it is very Similar to the old Ostrom Outdoors Packs. If the build quality of these new packs is anywhere close to the Ostrom Packs then these are a steal at that price... So Glad Andy is reviving this pack style...
Just saw a post saying the Ostrom is making packs again. I wonder if that means these or if Ostrom is independently back in the game. Gonna be hard to compete with RBW since these packs are virtually identical.
@@phasmata3813 Yes Ostrom are back but have outsourced and no longer made in Canada.
Just ordered the tump for my expedition food barrel harness! So pumped I wish more packs had that option. Wish I had waited as I ordered a Cooke custom but I rather support Canadian and your pricing is spot on Andy. Good value solid materials🤙🤟
Awesome Andy! I've been looking for something like this for a while, they aren't so easy to find. It's also super affordable, which I appreciate.
Wow Andy packs look really nice can't wait to get one keep the great products coming
Genius from experience. What really works, because it does.
I've already got packs from that one Minnesotan guy that I'm sure everyone is thinking of at some point while watching this that should last me a very long time yet, but I'm glad these exist as the community will benefit tremendously from the extra option/competition. I'm very happy with my RBW barrel harness, and if these packs deliver similar quality, that's awesome. Based on the design's extreme similarity to Ostrom's packs, I assume that Ostrom was involved with these as well?
Great looking pack! Going on the wish list
Good looking pack Andy, great job . 👍
Definitely going to be adding this to my wish list...
Looks pretty solid Andy.
Beautiful!!
Perfect. I've been looking for a good canoe pack!
Just got this pack and wow! I love it. Will be using this year in the boundary waters. Might order another one!
great gear and a great guy!
That’s a well thought out pack. I’ve had a similar, no longer in production black feather guide pack that is probably 30 years old now and still going! yours has some improvements on it and will no doubt be the last pack any purchasers have to buy. Anyone worried about waterproofing their gear will soon discover the benefits of a liner or several smaller dry bags within work perfectly.
Website says it will be $175 CAD looks like an amazing value!
yes this is a great value especially if they are made like the Ostrom Outdoors Pack of a similar design
Great product overview! Thanks Andy and Kevin!
We all know how Mr. Callan loved the Ostrom packs and this is pretty much the same thing. Not that this is a bad thing. Excellent looking pack and as soon as the liner bags are back in stock I'm going to add another pack. Don't tell my wife! The only suggestion is having the hip belt cinching as a pull towards the front rather than pulling and cinching towards the pack. It's a feature on Osprey packs that I love. Also #AllHailtheTump #BuyCanadian
can't wait for these to be in stock :)
Did you snag one ?
Is it quality?
@@ktownc936 Not yet -- next season now. BUT I've tried them before and liked them more than any other fabric pack.
Too serious at the start, , but the right amount of Kevin! 😊
Very nice...keeping my eye on the site for availability!
On another note...is the dog a flat coat retriever?
She's half border collie and half golden retriever. She's amazing. Canadian Outdoor Equipment should have it in their store in 2-4 weeks.
Just ordered mine last night .I Hope there not back ordered for too long. Look like a great product.
How were you able to order? I’ve been watching this product for a long time and there was never an ability to order on the RBW site. Only out of stock waiting shipment in mid February
@@ProdigiousReturn ordered on Recreation Barrel works site. Didn't say anything about delay.
@@timbradley8599 Andy told me yesterday that the packs should be coming to him next week.
Have you taken it out ? Has it lastest ?
Sold!
Well I just ordered the expedition in red with a tumpline and the liner. I will leave a review when i receive it, and one after my first trip.
Have you used it I'm very interested.
I wonder if there is a warranty
How did It fare for you? I am very seriously considering this pack for my BWCA trips.
I need this pack! Is this coated / waterproof 1000D Cordura?
Was going to ask the same question.
No. You'll need either to store everything in waterproof containers or use a pack liner - or both (that's what I do). Pack Liner - th-cam.com/video/EAnnFQunrPg/w-d-xo.html
So question....how would the head strap affect someone with a bad neck and a fused lower back? I don't think this pack would be recommended for someone like myself.
It woukld be your neck and upper body muscles - but you don't need to use the head strap (tump)
Awesome. How do you think that pack would serve for both winter camping on foot also. I wouldn’t mind having a canoe pack that would do both. We’re talking 10 miles or less. Nothing crazy. Since it has support that a canoe pack historically wouldn’t have had, im thinking I could get away with it.
I'm not sure. A backpack might be more fitting.
@@TheHappyCamperwell I’d sure like to find out.
You’ve adopted so many features that make a backpack what it is, that I believe it may just be the best of both worlds. That’s what I’m trying to do you see. Merge the two vs taking multiple packs.
Many of the canoe routes I take in the USA, like the Buffalo for example, have multiple trail systems along the river system. So you can park early for the day at camp or spend an extra day at camp and do some hiking.
Those dry bags with shoulder straps leave a lot to be desired.
Where can I get that hat??
Andy got me one too. He got it at some Irish/Scottish shop in Peterborough
@@TheHappyCamper Just up the road from me 👍.
Waterproof?
No. You'll need either to store everything in waterproof containers or use a pack liner - or both (that's what I do). Pack Liner - th-cam.com/video/EAnnFQunrPg/w-d-xo.html
