These are the frames that just didn't pass muster...
Fortitude Frames are inspected for a variety of criteria, and some don't pass due to superficial aspects. The anodized finish might be slightly off in color, there could be a small tool mark, or a ding or two on the surface. These frames function exactly the same as our non-blemished frames, they just are a little ugly. The cosmetic flaws equal savings for you!
Get them while you can, they won't stay in stock for long.

The Fortitude Pack Frame is designed to work with all versions of the US military’s legacy ALICE pack – including ALICE belts and shoulder straps – and is a fully cross-compatible with the current USMC-issue FILBE pack and components, as well as the US Army MOLLE 4K ruck (will not fit older MOLLE rucks without mods).
Our design allows the Fortitude frame to be used with a wide array of packs on the market, including standard issue military packs as well as many recreational commercial packs. Any pack that accepts a legacy style ALICE frame will accept the Fortitude Pack Frame.
