*SOLD IN PACKS OF 3*
For you guys that like Auto-locking Buckles to prevent webbing slipping no matter what the angle. With three pairs you can replace all buckles on the webbing originating from the frame. Works exceptionally well when securing a rifle or large spotting scope to the side. One pack of 3 weighs 2.9 oz.
Who is Initial Ascent
The triaxial carbon fiber structure combined with additional strategically placed composite materials provides the greatest strength to weight ratio on the market. We are confident in delivering a frame that is not only comfortable, but provides the ability to haul extremely heavy loads.
The key to the frame’s design is its shape. This allows the heaviest load to be positioned in the center of your back by spreading the weight over your hips, minimizing muscle fatigue and shoulder strain. To stay cooler in hot conditions, the shape maintains air flow around your back. The frame also follows the natural curvature of your spine, providing extreme comfort in all conditions.
We offer a 1-year warranty for any material defects and workmanship to the original purchaser.

Yes. All IA packs work off of a single frame and suspension system. You can interchange the bags and Pannier Load Carrier at will. No need to buy a separate suspension system.
The material we use is a 500D Cordura which is very water resistant but not waterproof. If your hunting in wet environment, we recommend our IA Rain Cover.
Yes. We have the Integrous Frame for torso lengths from 18-22".
And our Invictus Female Frame for torso lengths 13-17". This frame will also work for kids who fall into that torso length range.
It does come standard with the IA Day Pack, but it does not come with the IA3K, the IA5K, or the IA8K Pack Systems. The Pannier isn't required for packing meat, but we definitely recommend it.

Found out that the buckles on the pack tend to slip under tension from time to time. Ordered 2 sets to replace the front straps and the two side compression buckles. Was only able to replace one on the side compression buckles since one end was not removable. This is definitely a upgrade which was much needed.
Great item to pack down tight and hold everything in place!
Great buckles!
Very secure but harder to operate than standard buckles
Great update for my pack.
They Literally DO NOT Lock worst Lock buckle
It’s the best kind of buckles for cinching down big loads in any angle.
Love the locking buckles! A bit challenging to install with the Velcro at the end of the straps. Fold the Velcro together in-line with the strap to make install easier. Once they’re on they’re on and there’s no doubt everything in the pack on staying where it is.
Excellent addition to the pack, holds securely no matte the angle
They are pretty sturdy
Absolute game changers when added to any pack, Auto locking buckles are a must!
Definitely great upgrade. Buckles do not slip now.
They should come standard on the pack.
Holding up to the expectations of all IA gear!!! Nice to not have rifle or tripod straps coming loose and great to keep meat in place!! Thanks once again for great gear to use in back country.
These really lock down
👍
switched everything over to autolock, probably best deal you will find on autolock buckles
I generally hate auto locking buckles due to them being hard to operate when your fingers are cold and slow nature of loosening them but I replaced some the buckles on 3 different IA bags that I have. Strapping a bow or rifle can be difficult to keep the straps tight due to the changing angles. Problem solved. I replaced only the buckles that I felt needed replacing and kept the originals.
They are a necessity in my book
Awesome customer service and support. Great people!
These buckles can be hard to find and expensive when you do find them. Especially if they're not your typical coyote tan color. Super pleased to find these at a good price.
Added the locking buckles to my IA 8k. What a difference it made. No more loosening of the straps on tripod or rifle.
