Nice work! Buying a new bag I always think of my favorite aspects of my others. I love the inner pocket “mesh” of the vertx ready pack. I also can’t own a bag without water bottle pockets. Keep doing what you’re doing. I seriously can’t wait for your line of bags in the future. I know you’ll get there
Awesome bag, you have gotten me addicted to the highViz linings, and that’s what draws me to new bags. I like the design of your bag and wished it was in production. I don’t know if I can design my own custom bag, but if I do I will use your reviews to get it perfect. Thanks George Defined.
I’ve never heard of this brand. I totally dig the idea here. $500 is a steep price, but I think there’s something to say about the customization aspect. I’d be willing to pay more for bags if I had control over the layout and materials. By the way, the lining is outrageous. If you look up high viz lining on the interwebs, you might find a picture of this bag. Great work and thanks for sharing your experience with Azo. I hope more companies take this approach in the future. Congrats on your first collab (kind of)!
Nice bag, Bro-ham. That's cool that they let you design a bag the way you wanted. I'm surprised you didn't put a grab handle on the side of the bag to help with stowing and retrieving the bag from a overhead airplane bin or in the whip. I hope you have many days of enjoyment with it. Thanks for sharing. One.
Azo bags are definitely high end quality. You get what you pay, and I can say the same on your bag as well, George. Dope customization with good features, however agree on the compresation straps situation. It definitely had a place in this Dejen. Nevertheless thanks for showing people different bag creators than as per normal - well appreciated. Wish you could check and say a few words on my custom bag from Azo.
I'd love this bag to be the benchmark for all future bag reviews. Like it's to the side on the table and you compare any other bag to it. So we can get used to the size of new bags you pick up.
Thank You for this Great review. I didn't know the company and that's awesome to know that you can get a backpack customized that way, and get the bag we all dream about. Some of the features made me think about the latest Daily Deploy 48 Pack from 5.11. It doesn't have the sleek and clean look your bag have, but some features are there.
I am such a sucker for a good high-viz liner and this has me drooling. Looks big for 25L. It is like the Peak Design Travel Bag and the Evergoods CPL had a baby. That’s not a complaint, I love both.
This is awesome! I think it is every backpack lovers dream to design your own pack. Look forward to your thoughts once you test it out and see what you really like and don’t. Love the black/high vis combo.
Very nice job on the design Geo. I have a Tom Bihn Brain Bag and it’s a biggie but the compression straps help a lot so f you do want to add them just go to a good cobbler / leather worker and they will add them on for you in any materials you choose. Best of luck with the pack and I look forward to your long term review. ✌️
hittin us with the excellent content george! very interesting video, i was super curious about Azo's custom pack process and how much it would cost, and you answered all those questions. thanks!
I so appreciate this! I've been looking for the ability to design a bag that can bridge my urban edc and a rugged hiking daypack! This company certainly seems to fit the bill.
You bought this bag at the right time George. I started working with Azo in May and just finally got my bag yesterday. Just about 9 months with all their delays in communication (months without response) and fabrication (4 months to build my Dejen). Bag came bag with so many issues out of spec. and sloppy craftsmanship on my $600 build. When I confronted them, they just rationalized why they made poor decisions on my behalf (without consulting me first) and called me a liar. New customers should be cautious in wasting their precious time and money on such a business. The Carrology group has a few reports of similar issues and the founder/team has been aggressive and combative. Looks like I will be adding one more negative experience to the list. Review forthcoming shortly....
Man I just put my 96 SS Impala in the shop last week to get a rebuild engine I was doing research on the turn around time so at least 3 months I was thinking but not told 2 months for the bag I don't feel that bad no more cause I am very anxious to get it back I guess you have to wait for quality
Hello. I know you also have the greenroom rainmaker. I am considering both of these bags for light travel. Is there a big difference in terms or quality or otherwise in this and the Rainmaker? Love the channel. Just subscribed.
reeeeally nice review !! finally a good opinion in english hahaha. was looking at them quite a while ago but the price definitely put me off in the end. i gotta say i am a little surprised by your price with the rather little changes you made besides the material of course. Did you get a full list with what cost how much ? would be really interesting in seeing a more detailed overview like the front pocket for example. The way you designed the bag is really the way i would go and steal good ideas from other bags hahah. Why didnt you want waterbottle pockets like bellroy does on their transit packs or evergoods on their chz ? they are more low profile.
Based on the amount of work that went into this, would you go through the process again for building a bag (either from scratch or a V2 of this specific bag)? I really want to buy this one from you but dropping that money right now when I should use it for responsible things is hard to justify.
@@GeorgeDEFINED thanks for the response. Yeah, I have been a fan of Recycled Firefighter for more than 5 years now and own quite a bit of their EDC stuff...I have a few bags and am considering selling them...if I can get close to the amount I need, I'll email you about this and hope it is still available (this is really the bag I wish RF would make)...otherwise good luck selling all of them and can't wait for future content!

Only review of Azo Equipment on TH-cam. Way to go George! Got my first Azo Dejen this week and beyond impressed. Thanks for the inspiration 🔥
When you first pulled it out I thought “you built a recycled firefighter,” i dig the build! Material combo is good.
so can we just order the George Defined version? that would make it alot easier for us...call it the GD..has a nice ring to it
You’re a big dude, and that thing looked HUGE on your back!

Wow! This sounds like a dream come true.

Thanks George, pretty cool review. Must feel awesome carrying something that is "your" bag ! I am thinking of trying it myself
Another great bag. Another great vid. Didn't even know about azo. They look great. So many options :)
I like it good shit. Got to step my backpack game up. Just started a proper EDC
Awesome! I just picked up a custom made Dejen in a very similar style. It's awesome...glad I took the shortcut 😂

I also got a custom bag from Azo! Great choice
Bags for the bag God. 👍

Mega Dope Backpack mate! awesome review! keep up the good work!
Looks like a nice bag. Have to check out there website... Well done.
so dope! how did I miss this vid! I’ve been wanting to dive into this and order my own as well. However, I can see how overwhelming it could be.

Hey George! how are you liking this bag almost a year later?
Great video George!
Dope bag George! Might have to check em out. Haha the wife might kill me :p

First thought at the first picture, looks a little bit like a RF Battalion.

Damn doing the custom game now lol
Beautiful bag! I love your choices and the inspirations from other bags. What's the total weight with those materials?
Nice brah 👍
Jesus loves you and is King and thanks for the great content
Hi George, are you still edcing this bag? Or youve found one you like more
I have a video Sunday you may be interested in !!
Impressive. How did you come across this brand?
A friend told me about them..
I'm not sure.. if the total cost of the bag is mentioned... What is the total customization cost?
reeeeally nice review !! finally a good opinion in english hahaha. was looking at them quite a while ago but the price definitely put me off in the end. i gotta say i am a little surprised by your price with the rather little changes you made besides the material of course.

I don't carry full water bottles with me.. I usually drink water it my office and carry the bottle..
How is about Hazard4-Pillbox?… It’s expensive and looks cool….you may like it….😎
Based on the amount of work that went into this, would you go through the process again for building a bag (either from scratch or a V2 of this specific bag)?
I really want to buy this one from you but dropping that money right now when I should use it for responsible things is hard to justify.
For me I probably won't do another custom bag in the near future. I understand about the money. I paid close to $450 for this one.

My girlfriend likes designer bags, I prefer designing the bag. haha
Rehose backpacks from the Czech Republic
review the black ember shadow :)
Can they ship here in California USA?
They ship worldwide 🌎 as I understand
That looks like a big 25L. Looks more like a 35L when it was on your back.
cpl24 v2?😆
