Reviews

Icon 6-6000 pack

"I have been running an Icon Pro 5200 for about eight years. Was always happy with how it performed on one to three day trips into the backcountry. Needed something a little bigger for a seven day Goat hunt. This pack is very adjustable for fit. If you follow Kuiu's instructions, and spend a few hours working with it you will find the comfort and load distribution to be exceptional. Load haul mode is easy if you do it a time or two. Another great, user friendly product from Kuiu!"

First elk with pack

"Worked well for getting my elk. A little awkward for the quarters--need to work on using the load hauler piece. Need a built in shelf. Did carry weight easily."

— Michael D. (4/5)

Impressed

"Put it to the test today. Full to the seams load-out plus additional load in between the frame and pack. 94. 7lbs. Extremely rugged terrain with extremely dense timber, deadfall, brush oak, and shale rocks. Steep climbs and descents; essentially the roughest country Colorado offers. The pack itself performed above expectations, and proved to be extremely durable in the roughest conditions. This pack outlasted my other gear and body regarding the stuff I was pushing through. Tore clothes and skin, but the pack went through it all unscathed after a straight 6hr push. Zippers held even when I thought they had no chance with as much was packed in. Same with the buckles. Everything preformed well on this pack. Great overall experience with the pack; not so much with the rest of the day."

Moose hauler

"Best pack on the market by far. Hauled 140 pound moose quarters with ease. Designed to perfection. Thanks Kuiu"

— Allen C. (5/5)

More stable carrying weight

"I have always loved the comfort of the Kuiu packs, and the great pockets and organization of the bags, but the old pro packs just swayed too much with the narrow frame. The new Icon 6000 I'm using is the best of both worlds. It's so much more stable, with the same comfort and easy to use bags. I love it!"

— Loren H. (5/5)

Amazing

"I love this pack. I will say I have not been able to take it out on a hunt yet but I have been loading it up with 75lbs for sand bags and hiking with it. I usually do about 3 miles a night with it, hiking a pretty hilly driveway to help get in shape for my hunt, and it is absolutely amazing. The very first thing I noticed is how well and comfortably it carries the weight. Second thing I noticed was how I was able to carry the weight standing straight up, my old pack made me want to lean forward quite a bit. I am really excited to put this pack to work on my elk hunt this October. If your considering getting this pack buy it and you won't be let down!"

— Michael C. (5/5)

Great pack, super comfortable and great features

"I just put this pack through the paces on a backcountry Idaho archery deer hunt. I really like all the new features of the Icon 6. Everything is well thought out with excellent functionality. Adjusting the fit for my body was a breeze. With close to 70 lbs of gear, food and equipment, the pack handled the 13 mile hike and was comfortable the entire time."

— Chris P. (5/5)

Icon 6000

"It’s a great pack I think it shifts from side to side a little more than my friends stone glacier pack. But I did install a strap across the middle of the pace to the frame to snug it down more"

— Sal S. (5/5)

Hands down the best pack

"Hands down the best pack KUIU has come out with. The full horseshoe zipper is a plus for getting gear in and out of the bag! The new frame and suspension feels much more durable and sturdy!"

— Chris S. (5/5)

Best Pack I’ve Ever Owned

"I needed to go on a backpack hunt, and pack out an animal before I wrote this. I’ll start by saying I’ve owned most of the “top competitors” packs and frames, and I hunt from archery to late season, and shed hunt in the spring. This pack is the best bag I have ever owned! They have identified and fixed all of the flaws in the old system (buckles, hip belts, zippers, etc). One thing I need is organization options, this pack has it. I don’t like having one big bucket of gear dumped inside, left guessing where to find it. I packed in for a 4 day trip and it carried 65lbs as well as any bag can. We packed out a buck in one load between two of us (my wife has the old system), it carried well. I’m not a meat shelf fan, I throw meat into a contractor bag, then put it in my pack, but will use one if I have to carry out camp and an animal immediately. I like the system they have created. The buckles are a game changer, I have to be able to trust a load ripping through brush with a pack full of antlers. These are tough, I’ve never seen any Icon fabric rip, and these bags are even tougher. I can go on but I’ll leave it at this, all the other packs I owned are officially gifts to friends. You nailed it KUIU."

Q&A

Is there a new bow holder or does the old model still work?
The Pack Bow Holder will still work great on the Icon 6 packs!
Will you be coming out with an ultralight bag option in the future?
We have not yet been informed of additional bag options coming out, but innovation never rests here at KUIU!
Will the icon 6 pack fit on the frame of the Pro LT packs?
It will not, it is a completely new system
