Cargo Box Reviews

Shoulder straps slip under load.

Poorly designed placement of undersized shoulder straps cause 25-35lb loaded pack to slip. Made an attempt to resolve this with your team, returned the problematic pack and was sent an identical pack. Same issue, slips under load when strap buckles twist and rotate.

Shoulder Straps Slip

Overall design fit and finish is spot on. . . . except for the shoulder straps which slip under light load 25-30lbs. The buckles twist and then the webbing slips right out. I worked with Sitka and returned my first CB and they sent me another identical system. Still slips out under load.

Warranty replacement - Great service and support

Had an issue with the mobile stand part of the pack where the screws that held the hooks for attaching the pack to the shoulder straps / frame had become stripped. Sitka was really quick to assess the issue and provide a full replacement of the pack. Excellent support and what you would expect for the price you pay for Sitka stuff. As far as the pack itself goes, it is a great pack - my only real issues are that because of the size, you end up bringing more gear than you probably need and the pack itself is heavier than I'd like. But all in all customer service / warranty was second to none!

Cargo Box review

1 full season of whitetail use. The pack is great as far as putting a climber in between the pack and semi frame (Revolt climber). Great internal storage and arrangements. Side storage compartments (batwings) are great to separate the items used on the hike. Straps need some type of management system when used some are very long, I guess to accommodate more types of storage but tuck away nicely when not used. Some straps need to be locking because they get loose if at 90 degrees. Bow would loosen on hick ins. To many pockets on side storage compartments (batwings), difficult to get things in and out. Pack is a little heavy at 7. 5lbs but packs heavy weight well and comfortable. Puts weight on hips with very little shoulder pull back. The lid closure is a little cumbersome, but the front zip opening is great when in stand. Great pack for 1- or 2-day hiking, camping, and hunting but not any more than 3. A little heavy to pull up in stand with paracord, a little rope burns for on the way down. I like the cargo better than the Fanatic pack because of frame and more storage. Fanatic is quite but leaves stick to it and you make a lot of noise get them off.

Well made great design.

Perfect whitetail pack

Great pack easily accessible fits portable and sticks perfectly and straps for extra layers

Cargo box

Great day hunting back pack would recommend to buy over the tool bucket. This is very close to the tool bucket just with more features

Love, love, love

I love my cargo box! It has room for everything I need! It's easy to take apart for a tree stand and put back together. The only thing I'd like is to have it a little longer waist straps to sit better on my hips.

Perfect Pockets

The way this pack has its pockets laid out is advanced and makes use of every inch.

Go big or go home

Took a long time to find the right pack, bow / rifle hunter in New England, all day sits can be brutal, to grind it out requires packing in enough gear to keep you comfortable and dry regardless of conditions, weather changes here on a dime, this pack allows me to everything I need clothing wise plus the hunt stuff- grunts, bleats, horns ect, exp- Sitka bibs , jacket , hoodie, extra socks, extra near skin layer, thermos, rangefinder, extra knife, extra hat , extra gloves and then some, I know it doesn’t seem possible but it is , and the pack handles the weight well, if your an everything and the kitchen sink, a mile in , all day sits guy. you’ll be very happy with this pack.

Haven’t had this pack for

Haven’t had this pack for very long, but so far it has performed well. Very nice design for carrying a tree stand and climbing sticks with comfort. Love all the interior pockets. Overall I’ll enjoy this pack!

Elk Hunt

Haven't used this pack yet, but love the new Orange and Brown straps between the pack and the back board for strapping my bow to my pack. Riding horses into camp with both hands and not fighting a bow sling. Lots of storage and pockets

Mind blowing

Did not know this pack was so versatile. It goes from a meat, three day pack and still compact enough to use as a day pack if you remove the internal frame.

Lots of Options on this Bag

Bag is a little heavy, but lots of utility and options for carrying gear.

Life saver

Holds all my gear for a day long hunt with room to spare

Great Quality

This is not your run at the mill Walmart or mid grade Cabela’s backpack. There are so many features to use that I’m not going to list them all. The quality of the pack is unreal I just wish I would’ve caved and bought the pack sooner!

Room for everything you need

Room for everything you need for an all day hunt & more.

Perfect for mobile hunting

Well thought out for the mobile hunter. Pockets and straps all have a purpose. Holds all of my gear and extra layers.

Hands-down, my favorite saddle pack

Hands-down, my favorite saddle pack I’ve ran a few other upper end name brands and this pack by far is the best I’ve ever used tons of space and you don’t have to unstrap your sticks or platform to get into the main part of the pack !! 10 out of 10

I have several Sitka packs that I use for different hunting applications and they really do a nice job designing their products for the avid hunter. Having multiple pockets, secured compartments and multiple tie down locations you can easily stowe all of the different items you need in an organized fashion that are readily accessible without having to rummage through the bag to find anything. They have also conveniently placed a blaze orange pack cover to pull over the backpack ensuring your safety and visibility to other hunters as you traverse through the wilderness. I highly recommend this backpack to add to your arsenal of essential gear.

Nice pack

I returned it and ought a tool bucket. This pack is too big as a day pack in a treestand.

Cargo box

Worth every penny! Best bag I’ve ever owned

This pack is engineered for

This pack is engineered for anything you can throw at it. Plenty of adjustability for anyone to make this fit like a glove. I packed this thing to the gills with extra layers (fanatic jacket/bibs), hang-on stand w/ 4 climbing sticks, harness w/ 30' lifelone, grunt calls, gloves, even had my bow strapped down and still had room for more! The zippers are quiet and strong. The material is extremely good quality and you can even avoid the zippers if you are in super close quarters by using the elastic tie down on the top flap. Highly recommend, especially for those who carry their stand in and out every hunt or have a long hike into their stand and need to shed layers for the walk.

Cargo box

Love this pack for run and run hunting. I’ve wasted so much money on backpacks over the years. This one I hope Sitka never stops making!

Room for everything

So much room you will pack the kitchen sink too.

Excellent Pack!

This is my favorite do all pack that replaced 2 of my other packs due to its versatility. I hunt bear in the spring from a tree stand, and i photograph wildlife in the fall/winter. I just hiked through 2’ of snow with my stand and cold weather gear, had 0 issues. Pack is solid, comfortable, and is perfectly sized to hold everything I need for the weekend hunts.

Great Bag

This bag has everything you need. It’s sturdy and big, yet feels like you could walk miles with it strapped to your back.

Cargo Box

It was exactly what i was wanting and needing to fit all my gear i needed and stay organized especially with camera gear

Awesome back pack

This is a awesome back pack, plenty of pockets to keep everything organized. Very rugged pack, zippers are quite and lots of room food, water and everything else needed for a days sit on stand or hiking.

Cargo box

This pack is awesome. It's all i need and more for hunting whitetail in the Midwest as a saddle hunter.

Great Pack!

Holds all my gear, fits and rides very comfortably and it is quite accessable in the tree from the climber.

Space, Space and More Space

Absolutely love this backpack! It has pockets in all the right places and is comfortable to wear! This thing will hold everything you need including the proverbial kitchen sink!

Great Pack

Great pack for white tail. Has every pocket you will ever need. I self film and this pack works great for all of my gear in and out!

Great backpack

All the room needed for a day pack

Great concept but...

Great backpack, by far the best laid out pack for being in a treestand/saddle I have ever used and I have tried multiple different packs from Kifaru, mystery ranch and many others. The only thing I wish is that this pack had a frame system or the ability to be attached to a frame. Especially with it being a pack meant to carry a treestand and sticks the waist support is very inadequate and no ability to adjust the shoulder straps properly makes the weight in the pack very noticable. Hope to see this pack redesigned one day with a frame system, would make it the ultimate whitetail backpack.

Review

Very roomy

Fantastic pack! Love the size!!

Fantastic pack! Love the size!!

I haven’t used it yet,

I haven’t used it yet, but I like what I’ve seen so far? Another buddy of mine ordered one as well after he saw mine. We both wondered if Sitka engineers ever thought about designing a connecting seat cushion possibly detachable for tree stand hinting? We both liked the deep storage and multiple storage pockets as well as the hang on ability. Thnx.

Best and Most Spacious Pack

Could not be happier with the cargo box, a major upgrade from my previous pack. There is an abundance of pockets which makes organizing my pack a breeze and makes finding stuff in my pack in the dark with no light very easy.

Great

Definitely a western pack, hunting whitetails in the east I think its a but overkill. Great pack tho love the space and pockets!

Cargo box

Appears to be well made and functional. Lots of room, without a lot of weight. Have it packed for upcoming elk hunt, but haven’t used it yet - will likely get higher rating after use!

Backpack

Little heavy

Cargo box and more.

When I bought this I was just looking for a backpack for deer hunting. After getting it this thing is way more than I expected and absolutely love it. So much innovation in it and with Sitka Products general. Just amazing!

Great looking bag has pockets

Great looking bag has pockets for everything looking forward to trying this bag in the woods

Perfect!

The Swiss army knife’s of backpacks, can’t wait to use it this upcoming season

Tough as nails

This pack is built to last, heavy duty manufacturing with no costs cut

Great day pack.

Great day pack.

Big
