Your cart is empty.The Commander X + Pack is a complete system for the multi day backcountry hunter. The combination of an internal frame meat hauling pack with a detachable 4000 cu in pack bag offers the ability to pack in gear to a spike camp and haul out meat when the task is completed. The Commander X frame has lashing system that incorporates a compressed wing system and a lower shelf to secure loads to the frame. The pack bag can then be reattached with a series of compression straps over the load. When the meat-hauling frame is not needed the pack bag attaches to the frame with zippers for a secure fit to the frame for a comfortable carry. The frame is comprised of dual aluminum stays with channeled high-density polyethylene frame for rigid carry.

The bag is very durable and don't really have to worry about what you put in it, it will stretch a bit. Downsides are a lot if you are planning on using it as a 4 day hunt or more. First thing i noticed was it seems like there is not enough space, for sure you have to organize the best you can. Second was if you have a water bladder and you have it in its designated spot it tends to fill like a ball and pushes into your back and gets uncofertable after awhile so you tend to drink more water. 3rd is if you have a spotting scope the hole is not big enough so you have to slide it in, it can be a pain getting it in and out especially when your pack is full...for sure it's going to take some time and can be noisy doing it. 4th which leads into 5th which is the compression straps are not long enough and the bottom ones either so if you want to use the bow/rifle holder your pack has to be not be bulky, you can get away with the rifle maybe but not a bow to strap it in securely. The holder seems to be to long and cant close the gap enough so if you use it you will have to be very careful taking your pack on and off so you don't mess anything up with a bow, it has your bow/rifle hang lower than the pack it would be easier if you have a second person to help you. 6th is the straps that go around your shoulders are to small and are painful after awhile especially if you have weight in the pack, but is not as noticeable if you have some cushion like a thickish jacket or something. 7th is if you want to attach a pistol or bearspray you have to fiddle with it to get it in the strap because there is just enough room to fit it so it's a tight squeez, when you put the pack on it is hard to reach and will take a little bit of time to get it out successfully. 8th is the pack is just heavy and makes everything else feel heavier than it actually is and can be a little awkward to pick it up and handle it around. Oh and 9 when you fill up the brain the top pocket gets reduced so only thing that fits is paper or something that is flat and is flexible. Other than that the pack is very well built and can handle any amount of weight you can. It does squeak but it's nothing louder than what you walk.

Couldn’t be happier with this pack! It is very good quality and the most comfortable pack I have tried. Excellent value, it’s comparable to some of the much more expensive bigger brand name packs.

Bought it for a last minute trip. It worked very well! It was a little heavy, but very bearable for price. Has cool little features as described. Carried around 45-55 lbs on it hiking. Well stitched, and lots of buckles for making snug/perfect adjustments. Was able to haul 100+ lbs of mountain goat off of mountain. Remained comfortable throughout experience. Ran into grizzly bear, and it was a little touch to unpack rifle off of back, but all was good.Highly recommend.

Not for backpacking hunts .... 9 pounds without a load ... just save your money and buy a kuiu or exo

After using this pack all fall I love it! Was used for mountain pack hunts and it was comfortable, durable and practical, lots of pockets, easy acces to your warm up clothes through the bottom, lines spotter pocket, built in rifle sling and rain cover. You won’t find a better pack for the price!!

My only dislike is I can only give 5 stars. The pack is extremely well made and tonnes of storage. The perfect hiking/hunting pack. Tonnes of fastening straps so dont worry about packing extra bungee cords. Its comfortable and easily adjustable for any body type. This will be big enough for my week long hunting trips with room for a sleeping bag, tent, food, and water. 10/10 would buy it again!

I tell everyone about this pack. It is so amazing!! I bought the Mystery Ranch Marshal and quickly found out that when you load the meat hauler, the straps you use to tighten your load is the same ones you use to hold your pack to the frame. So when I strapped down my 338 Lapua Rifle down inside the meat hauler area, I smash everything inside my pack when I tighten the bag straps to hold it steady.Then I saw the Alps OutdoorZ Extreme Commander X pack and it is awesome. You have separate tie down straps for the pack and what is inside the meat hauler. Now my rifle fits snug and tight and my pack is lightly strapped down to the frame with its own straps. Way to go Alps OutdoorZ. It is comfortable and tough. I wish I could give them 20 stars to rate this backpack.

The bag appears to be very well built and a lot of thought has gone into it. It come with a lot of features that you would have to purchase as additional accessories when buying a high-end pack. It is very comfortable to wear and has plenty of room for adjustment. I have worn it on 2, three day backpacking trips carrying 60+ pounds. I feel confident enough with it that I will be using it for a 6 day pack hunt in the alpine. It is a little bit heavier than many high end bags, but the huge savings mean I am more than happy to carry an extra 2-3 pounds. All in all, this is a super bag for the price. If I could give this bag a 4.5 out of 5, I would. It is better than a 4. Not quite a 5, but the only reason is the little bit of extra weight.

Well I have this pack for 4 months now and I have used it on several hunting trips. I have loaded it down with approximately 40 lbs. I have taken several 5 miles hikes with it. This is a great pack. I was never sore from using this pack. A lot of thought went into this pack. It's a backpack, hunting pack, fanny pack. And a meat hauling pack. I can only comet on the use of this pack for a hunting pack. I plan to use this pack this fall for a backpack hunting trip. I am very positive this pack will work great. My only complaint is the chest strap. I just don't understand why these companies do not make the chest strap bigger. I am not that big of a person but the strap surly could use another 12 inches of material. My fix for this was I used on of the extra straps to extend the chest strap. Thanks to my daughter inlaw who did the sowing. Problem solved. Other than that this is a great pack. Very comfortable.

I took it hunting the first time this year for elk season. I carried approximately 55 lbs in the pack. It is very comfortable and highly adjustable. I only have two minor complaints. One is a small squeak I can’t seem to identify that occurs when moving. I believe it’s the frame next to my ear. The other is that all of the straps can be overwhelming at first. But that’s how you get all of the adjustments. Overall the pack is solid with no hot spots and can carry quite a load. I particularly like the removable hood and front pack as well as the rifle sling.

I have gone through several backcountry packs over the years, this is by far the most versatile. I use my packs for more than backcountry hunting like traveling, camping, whatever. Having a pack that allows me to have multiple carrying options is very important. Also, cost vs. value, the Commander X beats them all! Like the color too…kind of burnt out of the typical camo packs. This pack has a fresh look to it.I plan on heading back to Europe again for a few weeks…can’t wait to use my new pack! I can head out on day hikes with the smaller pack.

Best hunting pack available! I hunt in Idaho, and was out last weekend, 10/17-18/2015 and it was fantastic! It easily accommodated my 100oz hydration bladder, fleece scentlock jacket, rain coat, vest, and my food for the day, and the top part wasn't even half full. The complete bottom section held my survival stuff, 2 knives, a sharpener, 2 flashlights, jetboil and fuel, flares and countless other items.You won't be disappointed. IT WILL LAST! I ended up caught in a mini rockslide and essentially rode the pack the whole way down the 20some foot slide, not a tear or fabric wear on the pack! Totally worth it if you're going to be doing some serious hunting/hiking/camping combination trips!
