PocketUp, a nylon gear company started by Mel Terkla, just released their second pack. The Cruz Pack is a 10 1/2″ x 7″ x 2 1/4″ lumbar pack. It features a single pocket that is loaded with organization features like elastic loops, a variety of slot pockets, and a large zippered mesh pocket. The exterior features a single loop material panel for patches or ID.

The Cruz is designed to be comfortable and stable when worn tight to the waist of the wearer. PocketUp states that it does not work particularly well as a sling bag due to this design.
It comes in 2 standard colors: Wolf Grey or Black in 1000d Cordura. The interior is lined with Light Gray 400d Nylon for visibility and has contrasting black webbing, zippers, and binding.

Let’s be honest, this is a fancy fanny pack.
