The Rothco GI Type LC-1 Kidney Pad brings comfort and stability to the long hike or camping trip where your ALICE pack carries a heavy load. Its oversized 17 x 5.5 inch pad distributes the weight over a larger area, reducing stress and pressure on your lower back. The pad is fully adjustable to fit most body types, and a quick-release buckle makes it easy to put on and take off when you stop to rest or make camp.

Why it works:

  • Load spread across more of your back: The weight of a full pack sits on a wider area instead of a narrow band. The oversized 17 x 5.5 inch pad covers a larger area for comfort over long journeys.
  • Adjusts to your build: You set the pad for your own fit. It is fully adjustable and fits most body types for a customized, secure fit.
  • Quick on, quick off: Getting in and out of your load takes less fuss at every halt. A quick-release buckle lets you attach or remove the pad easily.
  • Ready for extended use: The pad is made to keep working trip after trip. It is built from durable 600D polyester and suited to all weather.
  • Made for your ALICE setup: It adds extra support exactly where an ALICE pack needs it. The pad is designed for carrying heavy loads with an ALICE pack on hikes, camping trips and travel.

Who it's built for:

For ALICE pack owners who carry heavy loads on long hikes and camping trips.
