We have a unit that deploys frequently and is needing rucksacks that can reduce physical impact. Currently service members exert extensive energy hauling rucksacks lowing their ability to perform.  We are looking for a solution that would require less energy and reduce the impact of carrying equipment while they walk or run. The color needs to match the OCP uniform ie. coyote brown or OCP pattern. 

 Please see below minimum specifications of the rucksack:

- 55L rucksack
- reduces impact forces on the member's body which allow for less energy to be used while carrying the pack; ideally suspend 50lbs (if possible)
- water repellent and lightweight material. Material that has body contact to have breathable material.
- Hip belt pockets to keep digital devices, snacks, and maps etc.
- MOLLE straps on the outside of the pack in order to suspend equipment (ie sleeping bags)
- has the option for a built-in hydration device
- when empty, bag weighs no more than approx 9lbs
