M-TAC Large Gen.IV Elite 61 l tactical backpack

M-TAC Large Gen.IV Elite 61 l tactical backpack is the newest and most advanced version of the M-TAC tactical backpack line. The fourth generation is built on experience with the earlier Gen.II and Gen.III models, integrating the latest fabrics and construction solutions. The 61 litre capacity and 87x37x23 cm dimensions let you fit a multi day field kit.

Three level Cordura construction with Squadron fabric

The main novelty of the Gen.IV is the integration of Cordura Squadron fabric. This specialised fabric offers exceptional resistance to tearing and friction wear, so it is used where the backpack takes the most mechanical stress. The main body stays Cordura 500D, light and tough enough for everyday contact. The highest load zones are additionally reinforced with Cordura 1000D. This three fabric combination is what sets the Gen.IV apart from earlier generations.

A professional hardware set

The hardware on the Gen.IV is chosen without compromise. YKK zippers are used on all openings, and they work reliably even when contaminated with sand, soil or iced over. WJ buckles and buckles from the Italian manufacturer 2M handle dynamic load and do not come undone unexpectedly. Texel and Murdock webbing is used for the strap and MOLLE webbing system. Products from these manufacturers are highly resistant to UV and stretch, so they do not sag even after long intensive use.

Space organisation and the MOLLE system

The 61 litre interior is divided into several compartments with separate access. The main compartment holds the largest items, while the side and front compartments are for quick access essentials. A MOLLE webbing system on the outside lets you attach modular pockets and accessories to suit the task. Compression straps on the sides let you pull the backpack closer to your back when it is not fully loaded.

Comfortable carrying with a full load

The backpack weighs about 2200 g, a manageable weight given its capacity and material quality. The back panel with a ventilation system, anatomical shoulder straps and adjustable waist and chest straps let you comfortably carry a full load over longer distances. Weight distribution between shoulders and hips reduces fatigue and keeps you mobile.

Who we recommend it for

The M-TAC Gen.IV Elite Large is for anyone looking for top quality materials in a tactical backpack. The combination of Cordura Squadron, YKK, 2M and Texel/Murdock components makes this one of the more durable backpacks of its type. It suits professional use, longer expeditions and anyone who wants to invest in gear that will serve many seasons.
