Awesome Pack

I use this pack every day for work, while its completely unneeded for what I do (it carries a laptop and snacks to my desk) I love this pack. I use it for other things as well when needed, but it seemed a shame to only use a pack this nice when I need it versus every day and when I need it. Build quality is superb, super comfortable, and looks great. The only complaint would be the side pouches for water bottles, there's no "bottom" of the pouch and its just stitched to the side of the bag so larger things like a nalgene will wiggle upwards. Other than that, its a great bag.

Great quality, but definitely overpriced for what it is. The laptop conpartment is flimsy compared to the surrounding nylon. Love the pistol compartment wgich makes me rate a 4 along with outside quality and strong zipper ststem. A price for this type bag should be around $140 not 250. This was my fist eberlestock purchase, seeing that I learn I probably wont buy thier products again unless I have hand on experience with a system/desired model first.

Five Star Quality With a Little Room for Improvement

Five stars for quality, with a little room for improvement. Overall, this is an awesome bag and has become my daily go to. The materials and construction are excellent, and I do not think you will be disappointed. CCW compartment: Only one side is lined with material that accepts a Velcro style holster. I would like to see that material on both sides. As currently designed, the placement feels backward. A right handed draw from the right side of the bag would require a left handed holster because the holster faces away from you inside the compartment. Integrated top lid: Some internal webbing or attachment points on the underside of the lid would be helpful for organizing keys and other small items. This compartment is extremely convenient, and a little more built in organization would make it even better. Bag bottom: This is my only real criticism. The bottom feels too thin and could use internal padding or reinforcement to protect the contents. It is not a major issue if you place something soft, such as a jacket, at the bottom of your loadout, but a bag of this quality should have more protection built in. Despite those suggestions, this is a fantastic bag that I use every day and would absolutely recommend.
