Pete O’Donovan started making Podsacs in Sheffield back in the early '80s. Pete designed and manufactured the range himself and built a strong reputation amongst climbers for producing the most durable kit available.

Pack design has always been focused on durability, simplicity and functionality. Pod offers users high quality kit, that’s fit for function, with none of the superfluous frills which add cost, weight and faff.

Pod is now part of the Equip family of brands, and Pete is working alongside the team to ensure the packs are manufactured to his legendary high standards.

The range is comprised of super practical packs that are robust enough to stand years of tough love, while being sufficiently lightweight and technical for more ambitious projects in the greater ranges.

From March 2009 the range has expanded to include stuffsacs and drysacs, all continuing the theme of durability and practicality.
