Chest Pack Numbat Small coyote

The Chest Pack Numbat Small by Helikon-Tex is a compact chest and hip pack. Its design is tailored for navigation, outdoor activities, and frequently needed small equipment. This compact chest pack combines an internal organizer and a removable map case with the option to carry it at the hip instead. A removable map case complements the internal organizer for essential information. The bag can be worn on the chest or hip, depending on your needs and the rest of your gear.

Its high position on the upper body keeps small equipment accessible without restricting breathing or interfering with backpack straps. Alternatively, the model can be worn at the hip. Its primary advantage is not maximum volume, but rather ensuring that small items remain in fixed locations and are found more quickly.

What is the Chest Pack Numbat Small suitable for?

• Navigation and documents: Maps, smartphones, or notes remain visible and accessible at the front of the body.
• Fishing, hiking, and outdoor activities: Frequently used small items are accessible without having to take off your backpack.
• Photography and observation: Batteries, memory cards, or compact optical accessories can be organized close to the body.
• As a hip pack: Suitable when you want to carry the bag more discreetly or lower down during everyday life or travel.

Features and use in detail

• Removable map case and organizer: Maps, documents, and small parts can be organized separately; the map case can be taken out independently if needed.
• Chest or hip carry: The strap system allows you to switch between a high position on the upper body and a more discreet position at the hip.
• Versatile Insert System: Compatible hook-and-loop organizers can be positioned inside and swapped out as needed. This ensures the bag's layout is adaptable rather than rigid.
• MOLLE/PALS expansion: Compatible pouches can be attached via a standardized webbing grid. This allows you to add bottle holders, organizers, or additional pouches to suit your specific setup.
• Document and clear-view compartment: Maps, IDs, or documents can be stored visibly and separately from the main contents.
• Clear interior organization: Organizer, mesh, and zippered compartments separate small items from the main volume. This saves time by preventing cables, documents, or accessories from lying loose at the bottom.
• Adjustable sternum strap: The sternum strap keeps the shoulder straps in position and can reduce swaying during movement. It should not be worn so tight that it restricts breathing.

Terms and functions explained

VIS stands for "Versatile Insert System" at Helikon-Tex and Direct Action. It refers to an interior hook-and-loop surface where compatible organizers can be freely positioned and swapped out later. This keeps the interior layout changeable.

MOLLE/PALS is a standardized webbing grid for modular pouches and mounts. Attachment straps are woven alternately through the loops of the carrier and the pouch. Before purchasing accessories, you should compare the width and the number of rows required.

Chest pack refers to a compact bag worn on the front of the upper body. It remains accessible even while wearing a backpack. On long tours, the chest pack should be adjusted so that it does not restrict breathing or the backpack's shoulder straps.

Selection advice

Adjust the straps so that the bag does not sway, while ensuring your breathing and backpack straps remain free. For heavy or bulky equipment, a backpack is a better foundation. Additional pouches increase weight and outer dimensions; only plan for modules you actually need on a regular basis.
