I got one as well. I'll put it in a regular backpack if I'm away for the weekend. Works great as an organiser, and works as a sling when I get to my destination!
@@ThePerfectBagFirst off, great detailed reviews. I also use the dendrite as a bag organizer. I use gatekeeper clips to attach the dendrite belt straps to the outside or inside pals of my GR1. One question though. How does the vanquest addax 25 shoulder straps carry heavy weight compared to the GR1? I carry about 20+ pounds of equipment in my GR1 for field work and would like to try the addax because of the organization it provides. Cheers and God bless.
I agree with those that say the brown leather logo looks out of place on the bag - black would have been better! But the organization in the main compartment is definitely well thought out.
I kind of lined it at first but after using a couple of times, the lack of velcro inside to close and keep things on their place made me use it less and less after noticing everything flies inside all over the place...
Great video Sir. I am wondering between this bag and maxpedition octa versipack. Does the material of vanquest durable enough to last after years of use? Thank you
My honest take is that Maxpedition does feel like it would last longer. I think that’s only because it’s less complicated and less complicated things have less that can go wrong.
I would be perfect edc bag for me if they have a dedicated compartment only for the gun. I hate it when i carry my gun and need to get something there and mix gun with other stuff
Well spotted! I’m doing a review on that bag soon! It’s a special one! www.orbitgear.net/collections/new/products/r101-adv-mk23-nighthawk?variant=40226519580770
Based on your comments, I think you’ll be pleased with sling bags from Pacsafe. I own a larger Pacsafe sling bag as well as two large Vanquest Dendrites. All of them are top-notch products.
I own alkt of van quezt bags i culjng two of tbeir back pack verat bags but nkthi g but zipper problems after about ni e months of daily use eslcially jf tbe main bag material is 500D tbe class 10ykk zipper. Edges will tear the material right at the curves of the zipler tracks and i can l prove it! 500 D is o nly half as durable as1000D they want to save bag weight wich is only about. 6or 7 ounces and in so dojng made the packs alot less durable. Not. Cheap bags either clkse to$300.00 each!vanquest pleasd take nkges. Herre. Your zippers destroyed both my trident 32 and my beloved IBEX 35! Two bavs i love but are now unuseable all because tbey are gryi g to save a small amojnt of weight on the bags!
I love the shape personally , it gives it a more compact feel rather than a lunch box feel.

I hadn’t thought to use this as a ‘bag in a bag’ organizer, but i guess if you roll up the strap it’d be great! Thanks for the idea!

@@ThePerfectBag NOBODY MAKES THE BAG MY ENTIRE TEAM NEEDS. SIGH. MESSAGED EVERY MFG
Excellent review. This is hands down my favorite edc bag
Hey thank! Appreciate that.

I took it off.

My key leash broke fairly quickly. Would recommend replacing it with a NiteIze clip

Good review, looks like a future purchase.
Another great bag review.
Thx Miya!
Gussets on the sides would have been cool too.

Hey wander edc, what's the bag to the bottom left of the Whitley(?)

Would this fit an A5 sketch book?
I don't have this bag to test anymore. Check the dimensions on site - but my hunch is that it would be tight at the top of the bag.
I. Have. This bag in MCB! Love this bag! But i never use. It because for me its to small needs to be about 2 liters bigger!at least.

Hoping you'll review the Bold Co's PYX backpack!
I’ll check it out!
A lot of competition and better contenders, I think
It’s a crowded space!
What's a similar bag that you recommend?
@@rabasac37 I own Tomtoc 4L sling & Alpaka Go sling mini, I don't need another small sling bag
What is your wallet?
The little white wallet? It’s from C.Tactical.
@@ThePerfectBag Yes! Thank you!! Although I can't find it... :)
ctactical.vn/products/ct-pocket - it was this - but they don’t have the white XPAC right now.
