BUILDING ON LEGACY
With over a decade of service from battlefield to boardroom on all 7 continents, the FAST Pack Litespeed has set the standard for mission-configurable carry systems.
Building on that legacy, the FAST Pack Litespeed Arid Valley Edition delivers legendary performance in a streamlined package. Key new features include wide, ergonomic shoulder straps, a new high-aspect back panel, and a secure, immediate-access external pocket. The Arid Valley Editions include 3 rows of PALS webbing and a full-width row of 3 inch velcro loop on the front, dual 2-row PALS webbing blocks on each side, a Sterile tail, and included bottom straps.


COMFORTABLE
Wide, ergonomic shoulder straps made with a unique high pressure nitrogen gas solution process, aerated closed cell foam padding provides superior shock protection and comfort. Spacer mesh aids in ventilation on the shoulder straps and back panel, and creates a softer surface to decrease wear and tear on your apparel. Engineered suspension geometry and an HDPE framesheet enable the Litespeed to ride high on your back for maximum comfort, and load lifters make heavier loads more manageable.
UPGRADED BACK PANEL
Enhanced fabric that absorbs moisture and reduces pilling. Also includes a new design that enhances airflow and comfort.


Organized
External top admin pocket keeps small items indexable and accessible, and large lower pocket provides immediate access to med kits, tablets, and other critical gear. Internal mesh storage pockets provide easy access to selective gear along the front zipper line even when your pack is full.
MODULAR
Customize your carry system to suit your changing missions. Anchor points on the interior of the pack enables you to continually adapt and evolve the pack configuration to your needs. Removable compression straps at the base secure oversized gear, and our signature Transport Tail can be used to hold odd-sized items like a helmet, or released into the down position to secure linear items like rifles.

After multiple combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, Kryptek's founders agreed: the most effective passive concealment measure on the battlefield was camouflage netting. First used in combat during World War II, netting technology ultimately became the inspiration for the Kryptek family of camouflage patterns.

The first tiger stripe camo uniforms were created in the 1950s for the Vietnamese military. Derived from French leopard and lizard camo patterns dating to World War II, the Vietnamese version was better able to distort a soldier's body shape.

First unveiled and designed in 2002, MultiCam was designed for the use of the U.S. Army in varied environments, seasons, elevations, and light conditions.
