Matador Freerain22 Waterproof Packable Backpack

The FreeRain22 is a performance-first backpack that stows away for travel. Fully waterproof and loaded with technical features, this pack unfolds from nearly nothing to tackle the most demanding outdoor pursuits.

Nearly a decade ago, we built the original FreeRain backpack to fill a specific travel need — the need for a packable backpack that could keep up on outdoor pursuits. It was the first of its kind: waterproof, packable, and highly capable. Today’s Freerain22 is the third generation of that backpack. Designed with purpose and without compromise, the Freerain22 maintains its reputation for peak technical performance.
