I Bought 4 Backpacks to Compare for 72-Hour Kits 

Brother was like: "I don't wanna spend unnecessary money on backack, so I spent more to test it so you dont have to spend unnecessary money" Big resprect brother. You got a new follower.

I am a Canadian Military Veteran! I personally bought the 511 72hr 55L backpack back around 2005 so this is not the Rush 2.0 series. It is still going strong all these years later. The zippers have held up to all the abuse and the pack is a wonderful piece of gear. With all the pockets and mollie attachments that you can also add other pouches like a first aid kit like I have done. I have used the pack for basecamp hunting and camping since you can really overload the pack. I even use it if I am going out of town for up to 5 days as it can carry that much stuff in it. The pouches are great to keep everything organized for sure. Plus I do utilize a Camelbak in the water pouch. It also does have the webbing waist strap. So all in all they are amazing packs. The only thing that would make it the perfect bag would be if it had an external frame. I have thought about jerry rigging an Alice pack frame for it but I don't know about if it would work properly at all. My motto is buy once cry once. You can get whatever pack you want but I know that the 511 Has lasted me 23 years already with no issues.

They make body armor panels that slip in backpacks. Since all of those backpacks are “tactical” backpacks, that may be what those thin laptop pouches next to the back are for.

The compression straps do 2 things. 1, they keep your gear from bouncing around. And 2, they protect the zippers.

Dude!!! Glad to see you back on RU-vid!

You’ll never know when you’ll use it. So its still handy. Going to build one soon, i hope everyone does so because you’ll never know when you’ll need to evacuate. Lucas 21:36

I own the Falko backpack and used it every day for EMT school, hauling medical supplies and heavy books, for about three months. It's held up really well, and has lots of small pockets for niche items like gloves and stuff. It is a heavier bag and doesn't have very good hip straps. So, if you're packing heavy gear, I'd look for something with better hip straps.

I run that Rush pack in the winter and the size down in the summers. Fantastic bags!

Oh and, the lap top part is on the inside! The back compartment is the hydration sectIon.

I have a Reebow Tactical & 3 from GZ Xinxing that I have had 3 Years. My Reebow is My Bail Out Bag. My Multi Cam Black GZ Xinxing has a Hidden Rain Cover at the Bottom.

My biggest problem with most backpacks I have tried isn't the fabric they are made with but the actual zippers.. Like seriously why can't there be good zippers by now..... Drop the backpack zipper broken, lay the backpack down wrong, zipper broken, Pull the zipper too quickly it breaks. Look at it wrong and the zipper breaks. I will only buy a pack now if it has the good YKK zippers. They care about that you know it's likely a quality bag.

Thank you😺

That 5.11 backpack was not a 72 hour pack. It was a 24 hour pack. Hence the name Rush 24. The Rush 72 is the 72 hour pack.

I use a bullet blocker sleeve in mine.

SOG Ninja Day pack is awesome very good quality

There are two versions of the reebow gear backpack The version without the top strap that goes over the back of the pack has the cool liner Its listed as a 40l online but these chinesium packs could be smaller than listed Good video.

I think you missed the hidden pockets down the sides of the 5.11 Rush 37.

The first 3 are all no name Chinese packs, just rebranded by companies for resale.

Isn’t that last pack a 5.11 rush 24? I think that’s what the difference is between that one and the others is that 5.11’s 72 hour pack is much bigger. Either way, both the 24 and 72 hour pack is so expensive

you forgot the side pockets on the 5.11 pack

Hello good video

Brother how many hotspots does this backpack have? Was the chest strap pulling across in the proper area or was it too low or too high? How bad of a difference was it carrying weight high in the backpack as opposed to low? Did the waistband actually Provide support and transfer weight to your hips? Come on bro talk about the important stuff a pocket is just a goddamn pocket. How about the adjustment straps? When the backpack was underway where the straps slipping? Were you constantly having to adjust the backpack straps? Could you please address important points about these backpacks? How many miles did you walk in each backpack?

do you always laugh at yourself?

None of them have frames. Not good enough.
