Valhalla was born from real-world experience. We know what it's like to carry a 90L pack without proper support, to face freezing conditions with a sleeping bag that feels colder than a winter's morning. We've lived through rough nights, relentless days, exhausting missions, and long, grueling journeys. We’ve been on the missions you’re about to face, and we’re here to make sure you can live them better.

Valhalla Tactical was founded by David Hawkins, a veteran of the Australian Defence Force who served for 20 years in the Infantry, and his wife Kylie, a former member of the Queensland Police with 22 years of service. Dave's military experience includes deployments to Somalia, Rwanda, and East Timor, where he learned firsthand the importance of high-performance gear in demanding environments. Together, Dave, Kylie and the Valhalla Team are committed to providing elite tactical gear that stands up to the toughest challenges, so you can focus on what really matters—accomplishing your mission. We understand that every detail matters when you're out in the field. That's why our packs are designed to provide superior comfort, our pouches are made to be more adaptable, our clothing is built with the toughest stitching, and our sleeping gear is meticulously tailored for any climate.
