I'd like a bag like this, but one that either comes with a shoulder strap (for a cross body type bag), or at least can detach the chest rig and have the right connection points for a cross body bag. I want something this size, not the sling bags that seem to be so much bigger. I wish this worked for the cross body bag concept because I like their bags, they are durable and overall well designed, I just have a particular need that I can't seem to find a solution for so far.
Excellent review. I’ll save my money for v2. You’re right, the top strap buckles need to be detachable so it can be easily converted to fanny pack use or removed while wearing a backpack!! They should also include (or at least sell as an accessory) a proper padded waist belt to convert it into a fanny pack. They show it with the belt from their Skyweight backpack, but it’s enormous, overkill for a fanny pack, AND not available separately (really 5.11??). Also, it would be great if the front pocket had a cell phone camera window like the Vertx SOCP (but better designed then that one). That flimsy stretchy thing seems useless for anything substantial and things would easily fall out if you bend over. It’s almost there and better than a lot of offerings, but misses the mark by too much to make it a compelling product. It’s like they rushed it to market without really thinking it through and testing it.
With the padding it sits comfortably on your chest and the bigger straps do not dig into your neck. The outer zip pocket is a bit hard to use when it is really stuffed.
We have updated the video description with the holster as well. Maxpedition Holster - amzn.to/3Z3IApA (Amazon Affiliate) It is small and simple but works well.
When warring a chest pack it becomes part of your line 1 Remember when kitting and using The tier system is best Body is tier one Back pack tier 3 Teri two is plate carrier or vest
I want something like that just for a pistol. Just 1 gun and no straps. I want it to attach to my backpack straps. I want it small and simple. I have a large pouch but it is too much. I only need it for a gun. I have other areas for my phone keys and wallet. I won’t need that stuff quick access.
The top straps are detachable
The pass through is for the rush belt or sky weight
Good job! Your review was really helpful, thanks!
Thank you! 😀
The center divider selves are for magazines etc

Thank you for this video. Exactly what I wanted to know about.
Do you think I can fit a pair of 8 or 10x40 binoculars?
The front elastic sleeve is for hands free operation of your phone or gps etc

We just got back from an overnight trip and the pack did great. That big front pocket worked really well and was easy to access.
He is wrong top straps are removable
Also its a check pack with option of belt carry
Vertx is overrated
The 5.11 Pack looks like a real gear lifesaver! Have you tried stuffing it to the max and does it still stay comfortable?
With the padding it sits comfortably on your chest and the bigger straps do not dig into your neck. The outer zip pocket is a bit hard to use when it is really stuffed.
One size kinda fit most. I’m 260 n it barely fits
Missed some parts of this chest rig
to anyone who owns this pack, how do i remove the original strap? i want to replace with over the shoulder style sling, thanks!!!
does anyone have a link for the holster? thank you

Unrelated but what is the black pouch on your right back pack strap?
That is the Hyperlite Mountain Gear Phone Pouch. Safe and easily accessible place to put your phone while hiking.
I am going to put qc on the overhead straps
Спасибо! Хорошая сумка! Надо брать! )
Anyone know if a full size M&P 9 fits in here?
A G26 with an extended mag fits well so I would think the M&P would fit.
Can you add the link to the ccw attachment you use with the extra mag holder?
They came from a “Maxpedition Gear JK-1 Concealed Carry Pouch” which included the attachments.
@@ExploreTrekAdventurethanks dude
Excellent review
Thanks la for helping me out, I almost bought one but you helped me realize it’s just not for me.
Waterproof?
No
When warring a chest pack it becomes part of your line 1
Remember when kitting and using
The tier system is best
Body is tier one
Back pack tier 3
Teri two is plate carrier or vest
You forgot about the pocket that’s on the very back of the bag, the part that sits on your body
I like it!
😃
Nice review video. It's a little funny, but it occurs to me that maybe this is a better design for forgetful kids than a crossbody bag.
I have one and I feel like this is terrible as a stand alone but along with a back pack it’s great to carry all the small miscellaneous items.
Very true. It is definitely a purpose built pack.
I like it. But it falls short of my needs.
I want something like that just for a pistol. Just 1 gun and no straps. I want it to attach to my backpack straps. I want it small and simple. I have a large pouch but it is too much. I only need it for a gun. I have other areas for my phone keys and wallet. I won’t need that stuff quick access.
It would have been a better review if you actually test it out in the field first .
I used it on a few trips this summer and all worked great. The only exception would be with all chest packs they can be hot & sweaty in the summer.
Not good the top straps can't pop off, not practical
WYNEX tactical chest rig is better.
What features do you like about the Wynex? Have not seen much about them.
Looks horrible on though, like some sort of baby carrier.
Chest bags are definitely not a fashion statement.
