Eberlestock J51 Warhammer

Eberlestock J51 Warhammer is built around the U.S. military's beloved ALICE, a tried and true pack frame. Using the frame as a core structure, Eberlestock developed an entirely new style of pack that has amazing utility and versatility. It takes advantage of the ALICE's compact size, and take-anything-you-can-throw-at-it toughness, and incorporates features and qualities that have made Eberlestock packs famous. Because the frame is fully wrapped in the structure of the pack, more along the lines of an internal frame than an external frame, eliminated frame noise, and built an exceptionally comfortable and well ventilated pack. The Warhammer is an off-shoot of the popular J79 Skycrane II, but has more generous side/main butterfly compartments, so in effect the Warhammer has more stand-alone capacity. The products are very similar in function, and use many of the same components. Whereas the Skycrane II system includes the G1 and LP1 packs, these can be purchased separately when building a J51-based pack.

By itself, the J51 Warhammer is a great stand-alone pack, with ample 3-day-class storage. Depending on your personal preference, you can do some great things by mixing and matching accessories and other bags to expand the system. In effect, you can build any pack you might conceivably need by pairing the J51 with some of our other products. To get a super-organized front-loading pack, you can zip a G1 Little Brother into the J51's load bay. Or for simpler bulk storage, choose a J2SD or J3SD Spike Duffel... or a combination of any two of these; you can attach two duffels at the same time, or you can embed the G1 pack into the interior of the pack by zipping a duffel outboard of it. Then, you can attach the LP1 FannyTop Go-bag to the J51's top panel. These practical options in a relatively lightweight and extremely efficient system make this a fun, versatile, and highly effective backpack. Note, for adding hydration, we recommend installation in either the LP1 or G1 packs, or the A3SB Saddle Bags.

To finish off your pack system, you can add any of the Eberlestock weapons carriers. Our scabbards will attach to the generous MOLLE/PALS type webbing that adorns the load bay, and panels zip away from the top and bottom flaps in order to allow for the protrusion of long guns.

A note about the J51H: it is identical to the J51M, except it is built with Eberlestock proprietary NT7 hunting pack fabric, in a hunting camo pattern.
