Why We Built The Freerain22

Nearly a decade ago, we built the original FreeRain backpack to fill a specific travel need - the need for a packable backpack that could keep up on outdoor pursuits. It was the first of its kind: waterproof, packable, and highly capable. Today’s Freerain22 is the third generation of that backpack. Designed with purpose and without compromise, the Freerain22 maintains its reputation for peak technical performance.
