The BEST EDC Bag in the world for a fraction of the price of other pretentious Tactical Bags
This is the best EDC Bag ever. 1.Material The material seems like it was made from a good quality fabric. I looked for online sources but 5.11 did not publish the type of nylon anywhere. I would assume it's cordura but it would be better if it were made from ballistic nylon. The fabric is flexible enough to hold their structure on the folds. 2. Organization. It has very good organization. One thing I would like to see it improve is the Laptop compartment. It's way too deep into the bag that I don't find it practical to use it. The best place would be the pocket for the bladder. They could enlarge it a little bit to accommodate a larger laptop. I have samsung s9+ tablet and it fits just fine. However, my laptop could not. The best compartment is the admin panel. I did not know that I needed something this big. If I purchased something like Goruck or KNKG, I would have struggled with my work stuff. It has a compartment for a gun but I don't use it because guns are not allowed in Kuwait. It's fine if it was not there but it's also fine that it's there 3. Shoulder and Sternum Straps The strap is quite sturdy with a yoke that properly distributes the weight. The sternum strap is also very sturdy and is adjustable every 2 inches. I've read in some reviews that people don't actually know that the sternum strap is adjustable. They said the sternum strap is located way too close to their throat and if somebody grabbed the bag from behind, they could get chocked. Ridiculous. The sternum strap buckles actually have a slit hidden behind the loop, which they can remove to adjust. 4. Hip Strap I thought that 5.11 forgot to include the hip strap. However, after checking the internet, it seems the waist strap is not included. But there are two buckles behind the hips that are clearly meant for straps, right? Correct. But upon searching for the right waist strap, it seems 5.11 does not manufacture it? How weird is that? Turns out, I discovered that these provisional buckles are actually meant for, surprise, actual belt. And using belts as actual hip strap is a genius idea. It is easily available, it is adjustable, and it has a good clasp. I bought this specifically as an everyday carry but it seems like, I am looking at using this for travels as well now that I discovered that I can use a belt as a waist strap.
