The MAC ALICE didn’t need reinventing. It needed refining.

The Platatac MAC ALICE V3 builds on a pack that’s already proven itself, delivering a scalable 68–72 litre load carriage platform, with a 48 litre main compartment, refined through real use — improving load carriage, access, and internal organisation without adding unnecessary complexity.

Weight now sits closer to your back with the addition of an internal laser-cut PALS field, allowing the included radio/cargo saddle or heavier items like an eTool to be secured tight to the frame. The result is better balance, less movement, and reduced fatigue over distance.

Access has been improved across the pack, with a reworked lid offering dual-entry storage, internal organisation, and a large mesh pocket underneath. The main compartment retains the proven dual-drawstring closure, now paired with a zippered mesh divider to better separate sustainment and sleeping gear.

Externally, the MAC ALICE V3 keeps the layout users rely on — a full suite of accessible pouches, reinforced at stress points, with drainage and glove-friendly paracord pulls throughout.

A special thanks to Mitch at Tuesday Night Violence for his significant input into the development of the MAC ALICE V3.
