ICON 6 3500 Pack | Ash

Best For: Gear-heavy day hunts

The ICON 6 3500 is the ultimate day-hunt frame pack — delivering 3500 cubic inches (57 liters) in its standard configuration. At just 5 lbs 1.5 oz. it’s one of the lightest and most capable day packs ever built.

This pack features two versatile hauling modes for gear or meat. When you need extra capacity. the load sling mode provides an additional 5000 cubic inches between the bag and frame. When the bag isn’t needed. the Pack Load Hauler allows direct on-frame hauls and doubles as a glassing pad when not in use.

The ICON 6 Suspension sets a new standard for comfort and performance. It features highly breathable spacer air mesh. wider dual-density foam shoulder straps. nearly five inches of vertical adjustability. an ergonomically shaped taller waist belt. and up to two inches of lumbar pad customization.

At the heart of the system is the patent-pending ICON 6 3D Carbon Frame (made in the USA). Built with variable-ply. dual-direction corrugation with angled ridges. channels. and grooves. This frame delivers superior geometric strength. rigidity. and durability. A traditional flat 0/90 carbon layup would need to be five times thicker and heavier to achieve the same performance.

The frame also incorporates Flex-Forward™ Geometry — engineered with progressive stiffness that follows your spine’s natural movement while resisting rearward flex under load. Including maximum stiffness vertically for load support and controlled lateral flex for comfort without sway.

The ICON 6 3500 Bag is constructed from a premium combination of 330D double ripstop CORDURA® Nylon and waterproof CORDURA® fabrics. The coated waterproof material is strategically placed on the bottom and frame-side panels for maximum durability and to keep your gear dry. while the lighter uncoated fabric is used elsewhere to save weight.

Wide 1-inch (25mm) compression straps with dual auto-cam. self-locking buckles secure heavy loads and won’t loosen until you release them. Load-bearing straps are reinforced with wide Hypalon anchors and route over the main zippers for added strength.

An innovative horseshoe zipper path with self-locking sliders runs across the top of the back panel. giving you easy access to your hydration reservoir. allowing a rifle to slide down next to the frame. or a large game quarter when opened.

Inside. you’ll find a high-volume waterproof coated hydration sleeve compatible with 3+ liter reservoirs. a deep drop pocket perfect. and two zippered mesh pockets for organization. A convenient external pocket provides quick side access to raingear without having to remove your rifle or bow. Dual stuff-it side pockets and a top accessory pocket offer quick access to frequently used items.

The ICON 6 Pack System is modular with common connection points (eight buckles and two straps) for versatility of swapping any bag size within the ICON 6 family for any hunt.
