Bought this pack to replace one I owned from SOC/BugOut that I bought while in the Army.

Things I like about this pack:

-The exterior is made of the same strong fabric my SOC pack was made of, so it's durable.

-The main compartment zipper is thick and sturdy, as it should be.

-This pack has a hydration bag pocket inside and a port on the top to run the hose through. The pocket is big. I have a 2 or 2.5L bag and there's plenty of room. It should easily hold a 3L.

Things I'm disappointed about:

-The fabric that divides the compartments from one another is that thin polyester crap they use in wal-mart backpacks for kids that sell for $14.97. In the frontmost pocket, I clipped my pocketknife on the edge of an internal organizer pocket; when I removed it, it ripped the hem right off the organizer pocket. Day one, a simple pocket clip already ripped a hole in this stuff. That fabric makes up the front pocket organizer and separates the front compartment from the middle and the middle from the main.

-The shoulder straps are mounted to the pack too close together and the back of the pack itself is a little flimsy (just the canvas material) which results in the pack reshaping when you put in on. The problem is that it shifts the top half of the gear in your pack away from your body, putting undue strain on the shoulder straps (read: on your torso). My SOC pack was sturdy and would hold the gear close to your body, which is important for proper fit/weight distro as well as keeping your silhouette small for close-quarters movement where you don't want your pack catching on anything. On my SOC pack, all of this was adjustable. This pack lacks the proper straps to tighten it and compensate for the problem.

-The shoulder straps are plenty wide, as they should be, and made of the sturdy canvas, but no where near as thick or comfortable as my SOC pack.

-The hip/kidney belt assembly is a joke. The kidney pads are too thin and inadequate to properly put the weight on your hips. The belt is too narrow to fit properly or comfortably. The buckle feels cheap; I dread the day I step on it and it's shot because it most certainly will be.

-This pack does not have an adjustable depth like my SOC pack did. My SOC pack had a zipper that, when unzipped, made the main compartment 3-4in deeper, front to back. This pack lacks that feature, which I loved.

-This pack lacks any straps that go across the bottom to tighten the base and prevent sagging if the pack isn't completely full.

All said, this is an alright bag for someone who isn't doing anything important and won't have their life depending on a pack staying together. For operators, or others with a real or tactical need, this is absolutely the wrong pack. Spend the extra 30-40 bucks and get a name-brand pack from Brigade QM, Supply Captain, etc. If you're on post, just buy one at the PX or MCSS. Trust me, if you don't, you'll wish you'd kicked in the extra $40...

Good luck, Hooah

I'm a law student and recently started riding my bike to school, however, traditional "school" backpacks just weren't big enough for all my books and laptop. This backpack has been perfect, I can easily fit 5 large, hardcover textbooks plus it has a laptop pocket. The front pockets provide ample room for folders, notebooks, pens, and other accessories. It's large, but does not appear overly bulky. While it may have been designed for tactical uses I have found this backpack to be very practical for school.

I hate this thing. The interior pocket liner is already worn through in less then 6 mo of use. The laptop pocket is on the outer of the main pocket so it pulls itself away from you, making this a pain to carry. Also, it has NO good pockets for the laptop stuff like mice or chargers. I fit nearly as much stuff in a laptop bag because the layout is much more efficient.

Honest reviews on Deluxe Large MOLLE Tactical Backpack

This bag was portrayed as a similar bag to the S.O.C Bag but when it arrived it is not cordura and the buckles and stitching are shotty, not worth the $50.............

I'm former active duty military (now reserve), and it's comparable to an issued assault pack, though it has many more pockets. I use it to commute to school and back (I bike to campus). Probably my biggest complaints are (1) the bottom of the bag isn't that strong, so any items (e.g. laptop) poke out and could get damaged if the backpack is dropped abruptly, (2) no side pockets, and (3) no place to put an mp3 player (though there is a slight hole to insert headphones or probably camelbak straw as well). Anyway it's a good product and definitely reducing my back problems. Thanks.
