These guys might just be on to something, especially when you consider just how quickly they met and then exceeded their funding goal on Kickstarter.

With Bootlegger Modular Pack Systems, One Pack has Your Back for all Your Outdoor Adventures
On April 8, 2013, Boreas Gear announced the launch of its Kickstarter campaign to fund their innovative Bootlegger Modular Pack Systems, the one pack that has your back for all your outdoor adventures. Boreas Gear‘s goal was to raise $10,000 to bring Bootlegger Modular Pack to market. That goes was quickly met and then exceeded by a huge margin.
Check out the Bootlegger Modular Pack System with Super-Tramp Suspension, which allows outdoor adventurists to swap the suspension and customize the bag for individual activities or weather. Planning to go kayaking or have an adventure day in the snow or rain and need a dry-bag? Drop the suspension in the waterproof and fully submersible dry-bag and be on your way. Commuting or hiking for the day? Swap the Super-Tramp Suspension to the Hopper daypack and organize your gear. If the weather gets nasty, drop the Hopper inside the Scrimshaw for the ultimate wet weather protection. Trail running, cycling or doing a quick summit hike and only want to carry the essentials? Swap the Super-Tramp Suspension to the Torpedo Hydration pack for stripped down, lightweight comfort.

“The team at Boreas Gear is deeply entrenched in outdoor adventures, and based on market research and our individual experiences, we found that people are using different packs for each of their outdoor activities,” commented Jesse Moore, designer for Boreas. “We sought to create the ultimate solution for outdoor adventurists, and the end result is the Bootlegger Modular Pack, which you can customize for each activity. With the help of the Kickstarter community, we look forward to bringing this innovative product to market.”
Boreas Gear‘s goal was to raise $10,000, which will be used to manufacture the custom shape and profile of the suspension panel that is made with molded foam for comfort and utility. Once the Kickstarter goal is achieved, Boreas Gear will put the Bootlegger Modular Pack into production.
Boreas Gear‘s Kickstarter campaign goes through May 8, 2013. Kickstarter supporters will receive exclusive Boreas Gear rewards, including limited edition t-shirts and Bootlegger Packs and other selected Boreas products. To support the campaign, please visit Kickstarter.com.
