Campcraft Outdoors Indy Bag

The Indy Bag – Adventure-Ready Haversack Inspired by the Adventuring Archaeologist

The Indy Bag is the ultimate adventure haversack, measuring 13" wide x 12" tall (on average) with a 3" gusset. Featuring a dog-ear flap with brass snaps, this rugged bag is reminiscent of the iconic gear used by legendary archaeologists and explorers.

Designed for functionality and durability, the INDY Bag includes an internal divider with water bottle pockets, a snap retainer, and a carabiner to keep your essentials secure. Its flat-bottom design helps prevent spills, making it ideal for bushcraft, hiking, and everyday carry.

A Note About Stitching From Campcraft Outdoors:

Double Stitching:

We do not use double stitching because we do not use cheap thread. Our thread is UV and Rot/water-resistant and has a 10lb per stitch tensile strength (on average). So a single side of a strap can hold hundreds of pounds, but the fabric cannot. When you see double-stitched pieces, it's because it looks better for a specific item or because it's cheap thread and they needed two rows. Our stitching rarely, if ever, fails- but the fabric can and does; see below. 

Box Stitches on Straps: 

We do not put an X in our box stitches. Mainly for the reasons above, it's not needed. But, we also want the more traditional, old-style stitch pattern like you'd find on bags from the golden age of camping and woodcraft (that's our thing). 

Fabric: 

While we source our fabric from the best mills in America, there are variances between every roll we use and between mills. We only buy 10.1- 11.1oz Khaki color fabric from our mills, which, after waxing gives us a waxed canvas of 12oz+ on average. But, due to the dye they use in the mills, one roll of material may look Tan after we wax it, while the next roll looks Green. This anomaly is beyond our control because we do not make the fabric; we only wax it. So, the colors may differ if you catch a product run during a switch between rolls. 

Fabric durability also varies. We have products in their 7th or 8th year of use with minimal wear, while others show weave separation (tearing) after only a handful of months of regular use. Despite our best efforts to monitor it, not all fabric is woven equally. Often misidentified as a stitching issue, the material is actually failing, often around high-stress areas such as on a strap (which we reinforce with additional fabric). If your Campcraft bag starts to fail, just let us know so we can repair or replace it. We're happy to do so!
