Upland
The DakotaWing™ Upland Vest was built from input from serious upland hunters who actually put miles on boots and birds in the bag. It’s not a flimsy strap vest and it’s not a gimmicky “tactical” rig—it’s a purpose-built upland system that carries weight like a real pack, stays organized when the shooting gets fast, and holds up when the cover turns nasty.
The foundation is simple: carry better, hunt longer, and keep your essentials where they belong. The vest uses 500D Cordura for rugged durability, spacer mesh where it counts for comfort and breathability, and ¼” foam to add structure and padding without turning it into a hot, bulky mess. In the main bird pouch, two carbon fiber stays add real structural support so the system carries heavy loads with less sag and better control.
From maximum water storage for you and your dog, to a modular layout you can build around your hunt style, this vest is designed to outlast the hunt. Every vest is built in the USA and handcrafted in the USA.
