Karrimor SF is a globally respected load carriage brand, designed and developed in the UK by KSFG Ltd, the organisation responsible for its product strategy, engineering, and professional programmes. With decades of experience in designing equipment for demanding environments, KSFG has built Karrimor SF into a brand trusted by military and professional users worldwide. While Karrimor SF enjoys a strong and loyal following within the wider outdoor community, it is best known for its performance, reliability, and credibility within military and law-enforcement markets.
Through KSFG Ltd, Karrimor SF products are supplied via a global network of specialist dealers and distributors, as well as through direct contracts supporting military, law-enforcement, and defence manufacturing programmes internationally. This close involvement in professional procurement ensures that every product is designed with real operational requirements in mind. The brand has earned a reputation for well-engineered, dependable load carriage systems, with a proven track record of delivering solutions suited to both the modern operator and those working in extreme environments.
Karrimor SF is different from many brands on the market because its product range evolves directly from working with and listening to end users. Design decisions are driven by practical experience rather than trends, ensuring relevance and longevity. Prototype products are subjected to rigorous development and acceptance trials, where materials, construction methods, seams, and stitching are scrutinised to ensure they are genuinely fit for purpose in hostile and challenging conditions.
Every design is developed with the end user at the centre of the process. Feedback from professional users informs continual improvement, ensuring products not only meet expectations but perform reliably when it matters most. This commitment to user-led design and disciplined development underpins the trust placed in Karrimor SF equipment across professional and specialist markets.
We recognise that there is sometimes confusion between ‘Karrimor SF’ and ‘Karrimor’. For clarity, Karrimor SF is a specialist load carriage brand, independently developed and managed by KSFG Ltd, with a distinct military & Law Enforcement purpose.
While Karrimor SF shares its heritage with Karrimor, in 1998 there was a clear focus to develop load carriage equipment specifically for military, tactical, and professional users. This focus continues today under KSFG Ltd, positioning Karrimor SF firmly within specialised markets and clearly differentiating it from consumer outdoor brands. This clarity allows partners and customers to engage with Karrimor SF knowing the products are designed, developed, and proven for serious use.
