It goes without saying that here at AON, we are big proponents of the backpack. But sometimes, we need or prefer a smaller bag to conveniently carry our basic essentials that we use and need access to throughout the day. After almost 6 months of rigorous testing and evaluation, we are proud to announce the latest generation of our beloved Chio bag: the Chio-X! This bag was designed with convenience and versatility in mind, ensuring that you can take all your essentials with you wherever you go.

 NOTE: The new Chio Organizer is sold separately.

• X42, Black + 200D UHMWPE Ripstop Nylon, Crimson Wave, Black Pockets

• Ultra 400TX, Black + 200D UHMWPE Ripstop Nylon, Savannah, Black Pockets

Story behind the original CHIO:

We designed the Chio bag to hold the basic essentials, and I carry what is shown in the video here. These items I carry daily, regardless of whether I'm back home, traveling stateside or internationally. I simply add or remove additional items depending on where I'm going and how long I'm going to be there. For domestic and international travel, I keep the Chio bag below the front seat on a flight, and keep everything else in my backpack in the luggage bins above. This is especially useful on long flights when the lights are out, and I don't want to rummage through my backpack in the bin.

Finally, for those photographers among us, I would like to also mention the availability of the optional Chio camera pouch add-on. This well-padded pouch has a hook bottom that helps secure it to the bottom of the Chio where you will find a corresponding inline strip of loop. Not only is this pouch a great addition to your Chio bag, it also doubles as a stand-alone bag with its own shoulder strap. In a quick instance, you can easily convert your Chio into a small camera bag, perfect for capturing those special moments........Helm @ AON

This is the Type 1 organizer that has been specifically designed for the new CHIO-X.

Unlike our previous organizers, this one has hardware on both ends that allows it to be clip onto the corresponding elastic webbing mounts inside the rear zippered pocket of the Chio-X.

To assist with keeping it in place and minimize any gap between the organizer and back wall of this rear pocket, a short strip of hook has been added to hold it in place.

EVADE 1.0

The Evade, distilled.

The Evade 1.0 brings the same design language into a smaller-volume, lower-profile format.

Designed for those who prefer to carry lighter — or want a cleaner silhouette for urban environments — the Evade 1.0 retains the core features that define the Evade series while trimming excess volume.

It’s ideal for daily essentials, compact tech setups, or as a streamlined companion when the full capacity of the 1.5 isn’t needed.

Same build quality. Same attention to detail. Just more compact.

What's in our new 1.0

Redesigned Back Panel with Horizontal Luggage Pass-Through
No more awkward angles. The new horizontal pass-through lets you secure the EVADE upright on your rolling luggage – a game-changer for frequent travelers who refuse to compromise on organization.

Stretch Side Water Bottle Pockets
Engineered to accommodate up to 40oz bottles, these new stretch pockets keep your hydration accessible without sacrificing the EVADE's sleek profile. Whether it's your daily water bottle or an insulated tumbler, it stays secure.

Enhanced Front Pocket Access
We've removed the rain flap covering the lower front zippered pocket. The result? Lightning-fast access to your essentials when you need them most – no fumbling, no delays.

Customizable Back Panel Stiffness
For the first time, you control your carry. Access the closed-cell foam and frame sheet from inside the main compartment to adjust the back panel's rigidity to your exact preference. Want maximum structure for heavy loads? Keep it in. Prefer a more flexible carry? Remove it. Your pack, your way.

Introducing Savannah Lining
The Ultra 400TX variant debuts with our new Savannah interior lining – a warm, sophisticated colorway that adds visual depth while maintaining the tactical aesthetic the EVADE is known for.

The EVADE DNA Remains

Same trusted dimensions and volume you know. Same meticulous construction. Same award-winning organization system that keeps your gear exactly where you need it. The EVADE 1.0 maintains the core architecture that earned international recognition while addressing every detail that matters in daily use.

Available in Three Premium Fabrics

• Challenge Ultra 400TX (Black) – Ultra-lightweight, waterproof, and virtually indestructible
• Dimension-Polyant X42 (Black & Olive) – The perfect balance of weight, durability, and weather resistance
