Purpose Built for the Whitewater Packrafter

Designed for the packrafter who carries a full whitewater kit deep into the backcountry.  This pack will swallow a large Alpacka Mage or Valkyrie, with plenty of internal space for a drysuit, pfd, helmet and a week of food.  

The Bad Larry also integrates with existing Sockdolager accessories like the Bow Bag, Captain's Bag or Dome Pocket that can further reduce your overall system weight and add extra storage capacity. 

The entire pack is designed to compress into a very tidy and small package for easy storage inside a cargo zipper on the packraft, and to fit nicely in the stern of even the smallest packraft.

Side pockets are large and dimensioned to fit a packraft blade and two 1 liter water bottles per side.  Adjustable and replaceable shock cord allows you to easily tighten or loosen the pockets while hiking without removing the pack from your back.

Drop Details

  • Drop Schedule

    Every month I plan to open a limited number of build slots.  This drop will be announced first to email subscribers who have signed up on the website.  These slots are available on a first come first serve basis and are only secured by completing checkout.  There is no reservation simply by adding to the cart.  It is very possible these drops will sell out quickly.  This drop model will allow me to plan my inventory more efficiently and adapt my production schedule.

  • Production Timeline

    Once purchased, I estimate production of backpacks will take up to 4 weeks, but oftentimes it will be much quicker as they are built in the order they were received. Stock builds will be cut and sewn in batches for improved efficiency compared to fully custom packs.  This lead time is an estimate to account for the hipbelt and harness that will still be made to order for each pack.  This timeline is only an estimate, and is not a guarantee. If you have already made your purchase and are unsure of the timeline please reach out to me and I can give you a more specific answer.
