Fox Outdoor has been perfecting the art of tactical outdoor gear manufacturing since 1982, earning its reputation as a family-owned company that understands what professionals and outdoor enthusiasts truly need. Rooted in Chicago with heritage tracing back to World War II, this distinctive brand evolved from military surplus sales into one of America's premier outdoor tactical equipment specialists.
Specialized gear and product range
What sets Fox Outdoor apart is their unwavering focus on bags and packs - they don't try to be everything to everyone. Instead, they've mastered their craft, designing and manufacturing exceptional carrying solutions that perform when it matters most. Their tactical backpacks undergo rigorous field testing, ensuring each design meets the demanding requirements of law enforcement officers, military personnel, and serious outdoor adventurers who can't afford gear failure.
The company's extensive product lineup spans seven distinct brand categories including Fox Tactical, Fox Military, Fox Enforcement and Fox Adventure, each tailored to specific user needs. Beyond their renowned pack systems, Fox Outdoor produces specialized equipment like canteen covers and rifle cases that meet professional-grade standards. Their Elite Excursionary Hydration Pack exemplifies the brand's problem-solving approach, addressing real-world hydration challenges faced in the field.

Operating from a state-of-the-art distribution facility, Fox Outdoor maintains an impressive catalog featuring over 5,000 products. Their commitment to quality is validated through NTOA (National Tactical Officers Association) approvals, confirming their gear meets stringent professional standards. The company's hands-on approach includes participation in more than 15 trade shows annually and direct customer engagement at their Chicago headquarters, fostering relationships that go beyond typical manufacturer-retailer dynamics.
