The Eberlestock Battleship Backpack is nicer and more fully detailed than other packs in its class. It seems that most manufacturers have taken so many shortcuts in the trend toward minimalism that they have forgotten what it is like to live out of a backpack. The Battleship is built to be extremely capable and comfortable load bearing systems. Choose the Battleship when you need to get serious and haul some big loads.
For its size, the Battleship Backpack is extremely light weight. Eberlestock has carefully chosen new materials that give the optimum balance between high strength and light weight. Every feature and detail has a purpose, and many of them have multiple purposes.
This V-type pack is a double-decker...with both top loading and front loading features, it is easy to find your gear wherever in the pack you have it stowed. It also has the great benefit of a full array of compression and lash straps. Each set of straps can be used to quickly grapple something to the pack. So you have a very simple and versatile, and ultimately practical backpack.
