INTRODUCING FORGE 40
A larger FORGE designed for carry-on travel featuring PFAS free EmberTex™.
FORGE 40
Introducing the FORGE 40, the latest addition to the FORGE Collection. This FORGE is carry-on ready and built to travel. It starts at 30 liters and expands to 40. Like the original FORGE it’s designed to be carried three ways: Backpack, Brief and Shoulder Bag.
The 40 features our latest textile: EmberTex™. Over a year in development, this twisted nylon 6 has an abrasion resistant matte finish with no PFAS. Combined with YKK® Aquaguard zippers, the 40 is durable and weatherproof. Laser-Cut and Bonded hypalon panels embedded in the 40’s shell add structure where it's needed.
Your essentials are right at hand in the fast access panel and two additional exterior pockets function as both storage and pass-through to the interior. The top-pocket is especially made for our BOARDING KIT, with all your flight essentials.
The interior features three separate sections. The organization panel gives you access to the boarding kit on one side and additional storage on the other. The main compartment features ample space for clothing and footwear. When you need more space: pull the expansion zipper and expand to 40 liters. If you max out the storage space, compress the FORGE with our magnetic compression straps.
Your laptop and tablet are isolated in one compartment: protected by layers of quilted EVA Foam and rip-stop nylon. Laser-Cut, locking zipper pulls secure your gear.
Ergonomic 3D shoulder straps with two densities of EVA foam provide both cushion and support. Dial in your fit with Load-Lifters and a magnetic sternum strap. A contoured back-panel with an air-channel to keep you cool and dry. Our butterfly back-panel keeps your straps hidden, until you need them. An optional hip-belt can also be added.
The 40 features our custom anodized and laser etched aluminum hardware. All Black Ember products are made using our BOND-STITCH™ high-precision construction. All textile components are Laser-Cut for precise assembly. This construction yields a weatherproof, durable pack with a blacked-out, minimal aesthetic.
