The Cargo Hold doesn’t try to stand out. It just does. With a rugged silhouette and unapologetically tough build, it looks like it was designed during a windstorm. And somehow perfected it.

Made from water-resistant, MIL-SPEC, Made-in-USA X-Pac™ material, this bag can take a beating, an insult, and probably a few sarcastic comments—without flinching. It’s not here to play nice. It’s here to carry your stuff like it means it.

We added 2" military-grade webbing. Because 1" just felt insecure. There are solid steel D-rings and swivel clips—sourced from an actual U.S. military contractor. Which means even your bag’s hardware might have a security clearance. There’s a gunmetal snap to keep nosy people from discovering your snacks. Or your other, more serious, mysterious things that only you need to know about.

Inside is an oversized dump pocket. Not because we’re lazy, but because sometimes your stuff just needs to be dumped. Phones, keys, bugout essentials, mysterious artifacts from the glove compartment…whatever. The overlapping sides add strength and integrity, like a trustworthy friend who also does CrossFit. And there’s an extra layer of material on the bottom. Because gravity exists and our designers at DEFY think of those sorts of details. 

Carry it by the simple, soft, military-grade straps—or use the detachable 2" shoulder strap with swivel clips. Either way, you’re going somewhere in style. It also folds flat. Which is great when you’re going somewhere else.

Perfect for city escapes, country adventures, beach days, music festivals, tailgating, lugging groceries or just carrying around the emotional weight of your week. This is your hold. Hold it however you want. Just don’t let go.

PROUDLY HAND-CRAFTED IN THE USA

Not to be mistaken with the WWF wrestler, X-Pac is a composite fabric comprised of multiple layers laminated into a single sheet. The layers in the standard pack cloth consist of a nylon face fabric, a polyester “X-Ply” mesh, a waterproof film and light taffeta backing with a water-resistant coating. Developed and distributed by the sailcloth makers Dimension-Polyant, the company discovered that much of the technology they had developed for making specialized racing sails was also capable of producing a unique bag material. A good sail needs to be as light as possible, whilst strong enough to withstand the forces running through it. To retain its intended shape the fabric needs to be stable across all dimensions. It also needs to survive the elements by not absorbing water and being resistant to UV. With these properties, and with the fabric being relatively accessible, it’s no surprise that cottage industry bag makers jumped on board. In particular, the waterproofness and structure of the fabric was far greater than other lightweight materials used at the time, such as silnylon. The waterproof film provides waterproofness up to 200 PSI, which means packs are pretty much rainproof and don’t gain weight whilst hiking in the rain.
