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.
I never leave home without this cub attachment. I use it as a glassing pad as well as carrying either my puffy gear (top/bottom) or my rain gear. If I’m running out of room or need an easier access to something - I’ll throw some more stuff in the cub. 100% highly recommend it!
Nancy doesn’t really have an opinion about the pack and accessories since she bought the IA5K setup for John (me) for Christmas. I checked it all out and am super excited to get my Christmas present in a few days. I absolutely love the equipment and will be load testing it soon. I narrowed my choices to three high end brands, two of which I was able to try out either at the manufacturer or at a retail outlet. Your podcast and beliefs was the thing that swayed my decision when I was down to two brands. I listen to the podcast from the other company as regularly as I do yours but the Oct 21 episode “When God sends you an elk tag,” was my decision point. In a world gone astray, you keep your values and don’t hide them or hold back for fear of offending someone with your beliefs. You are my kind of people. I resumed hunting this year after years off for work and raising three boys, and they all hunt to some extent. Looking forward to getting deeper into the mountains with this pack.

The cub is my favorite accessory, perfect for those things you want to keep ready for day mode without always having to unpack and repack. Drop the bag, strap the lid and cub on and go. Well done with this accessory.
This bag is awesome for quick access items. I plan on keeping my inflatable raft or 2 large containers of water. Plus this helps protect my rifle and bow when im rucking in long distances.
I love the cub accessory bag! Top quality product and great customer service as always! Added the bag to my IA2K bag and it’s a great addition looking forward to hitting the backcountry this year and putting it to the test!
Probably my favorite addition to my pack system, great for extra game bags, pack jacket, etc. Easy to remove when you don't need it, e.g. after that first trip back and you've gotta go back in for another quarter.
Absolutely love the cub for my IA daypack set-up. Adds the perfect amount of volume. Stuff the pack with rain gear and puffy and makes a great pillow or back rest when I'm glassing or taking a siesta.
So far so good got it installed and waiting for the snow to melt a bit so I can get out. Quality is top notch as always and function looks flawless as well.
Well I have yet to officially use this cub accessory however I know I will be impressed! Dennis and Joe with IA ALWAYS make the highest of quality handmade gear!
Dennis and the IA crew have been awesome to work with, from my first order to my purchase of the cub accessory bag. I’ve already got my puffy coat stuffed in the cub, & I can see the extra space in my pack… thanks IA
