Chrome’s most rugged all-condition backpack just got a serious material upgrade. Inspired by technical sailcloth material and the 22-degree bias that gives it strength to resist tearing. The BLCKCHRM 22X Barrage Cargo Backpack is forged from the toughest and lightest material Chrome could make.
The Barrage is watertight with a fully seam-welded liner made from 600-denier truck tarpaulin and the 22X nylon laminated shell. Together with the roll-top closure, the two layers create a completely waterproof backpack.
To keep the pack close to your back when not fully packed, Chrome added compression straps to the sides. For additional storage, the Barrage features a webbed cargo net on the front, two internal pockets to separate wet and dry cargo, and two side exterior pockets for your water bottle or U-lock.
