The Savotta Kukkaro Hip Pack is a compact hip pack with versatile internal organisation and external attachment points. Hip packs are very versatile as is, the Kukkaro even more so due to the numerous ways you can tweak and configure it to suit your specific needs.
'Kukkaro' is Finnish for a bag or pouch which is sort of a purse, but not a purse, nor just any small bag either. The free Finnish online dictionary www.sanakirja.org defines 'kukkaro' as 'a small, commonly leather pouch or bag, in which one carries small necessities and accessories, such as cash, tobacco etc.' By definition a small fanny pack like this is thus truly the ultimate 'kukkaro'.
Internally, the rear wall has a large flat compartment for larger items. On top of the compartment a single row of 50 mm elastic webbing is sewn, forming two smaller 4 cm wide loops and one larger 9 cm wide loop, suitable for small items like multitools, lighters etc.
The front wall has two small flat compartments, with tie-down loops on top. A 18 x 10 cm loop surface on the inside of the front wall allows you attachment of all sorts of hook-backed organisers.
A large, open-ended flat compartment on the back of the pack allows you to stow the waist strap away if needed and can be used as a large belt loop if you want to carry the Kukkaro on a belt or the hip belt of a backpack.
PALS webbing on the side wings and bottom allows you to attach small pouches, elastic cords and accessories. The webbing on the side wings can also be used to quick-attach the pack to the side compression straps of a backpack by using additional SR buckles or G-hooks. No such buckles or G-hooks are included with the pack.
