Clik Elite is launching a new line of high performance packs for adventure sports photographers along with their new web site: www.ClikElite.com. Clik Elite handles a photographer’s need for performance, convenience and comfort. “Our line is incredibly multifunctional. We’ve combined the features of a camera bag and a high performance outdoor backpack - including hydration systems, adjustable harnesses and waist belts. Specialized compartments protect and organize your gear. They are designed to go anywhere you want to go,” co-founder Bryce Thatcher said.

The packs are constructed from high tech materials like ballistic fabric and high-tenacity nylon to withstand rough use. The inside of the packs feature soft internal surfaces to protect delicate camera gear. The company has contracted with outdoor retailer REI to carry the packs at REI.com and at some REI stores. Other distributors such as B&H Photo, Adorama, Newegg.com will be coming along soon.
