Overview

The Bolt 12 is a lightweight 12L day pack that comfortably fits essentials for EDC (Every Day Carry) and short walks and also perfect for a vehicle grab bag. The Bolt 12 has the ability to 'bolt on' to larger field packs like our MR40 as a removable day pack or summit pack. Practical pockets provide organisation and easy access for smaller items.

Customer feedback from the Bolt 10 was taken on board and implemented into the Bolt 12. Suggestions like padded shoulder straps instead of 50mm webbing, full clamshell and more colours. The change we're most proud of is that the Bolt 12 is Australian Made.

We've reintroduced our Quick Clips which easily attach and detach while remaining extremely secure when required. The Quick Clips are also stronger and lighter than the split bar side release buckles originally used, mainly due to the fact they do not require a female host buckle and hook straight onto webbing.

Uses: day pack, summit pack, EDC, hydration/stalking pack, grab bag, range bag. Overflow/beavertail attachment and storage expansion on larger packs.

The Bolt 12 will comfortably carry 1L of water, brew kit, first aid kit, survival kit, emergency shelter, knife, cordage, hygiene kit and snacks.

Features

Durability:

Genuine 500D Cordura nylon inside and out. As tough on the inside as it is on the outside! 500D is light and has a tight weave, it dries a LOT faster than 1000D so a soaking wet 500Dpack will dry faster and get lighter quicker.
#10 Industry standard YKK Zip for the main opening, #8's on the front pockets. If your gear doesn’t have YKK zips then chances are it’s substandard and at greater risk of failure. We reverse our zips so the teeth face in. This protects them from dirt and mud prolonging the life and reliability of the zips.
Premium quality buckles.
Tough aluminium Quick Clips are stronger and lighter than traditional side release buckles.
LIFETIME WARRANTY on workmanship.

Comfort:

Padded shoulder straps are 50cm long to provide comfort even on you larger units.

Practicality:

Generous 12L capacity fits daily essentials.
Two front zip pockets.
Full clamshell opening for easy access to the main compartment.
Internal loop for hydration bladders.
Internal D Rings for attachment of our Pack Pouches.

Modularity:

The Bolt 12 Day Pack can be attached to the MR40 and other larger packs to provide extra storage of essentials as a grab bag or summit bag.

Long term use

I’ve owned an original Bolt 10 for a couple of years now and have given it a true flogging over that time, while I do look after my gear, I’m not always gentle with it, as a Bushcraft and Survival skills practitioner I tend to end up in some odd places.

Observations:
The build quality is outstanding! I have yet to see any signs of wear on the body or harness.

Capacity is great, for a small pack it’s like a Tardis once you start adding items.

I use this pack as a grab bag and light scout pack when out for a days wander through the bush and it holds everything I need to be reasonably comfortable in the bush, whether it’s business or pleasure this is the first bag I go for.

I highly recommend any products created by the team at HRO for hard use gear you can rely on.

Brilliant dad bag

I purchased an sr25 for some adventures I have planned but when it arrived I was so impressed I just had to have the bolt as well. Will mostly be using it as a dad bag as it isn't saggy and fits all the necessities

Bolt 10 (AKA its bigger on the inside)

I received the Bolt 10 as a part of my MR40 kit and found it to be very interesting. When used as a part of the MR40 i carry the essentials in case i need to drop the big bag or just want a day pack. It fits the following in the main compartment without hassle : SOL escape bivi, USGI poncho, water filter kit (hydrapak 2l bladder & be free filter), shemagh, 450 ml TI cup, SK-5 knife, 20m cord, 6 x 400cal food bars.

In the outer upper pocket: fireant stove with 12 esbit tabs, water purification tabs, firesteel & knife sharpener.]
In the outer lower pocket: AMK steelhead first aid kit with added trauma dressing & gauze.

For me the only downside is it needs a chest strap so i easily fitted it myself. It really surprised me how much it fits in yet is tiny to wear ............ it truly is bigger on the inside. I like it so much, i have bought another as a grab and go bag for the car.

Bolt 10 a Ripper Day Pack

My Bolt 10 was purchased a couple of month ago and what a great pack it is, fantastic quality and workmanship, perfect for use on day hikes and also doubles as a computer bag (14inch) on interstate travels. I also purchased the full range of pouches to complement the Bolt 10, again great quality and work perfectly for segregating items such as small first aid kit and food bars etc.

The ordering and follow up from HRO was great, items received as advised with great detail on use and care.

This is my second purchase from HRO, I purchased a Man Bag 2 years ago and it has proven to be a great buy, still looking as good as the day I purchased it, even after much hard use. I am sure it wont be my last purchase.
