Lets talk about backpacks.
I've been thinking about buying the Condor 3-Day Assault Pack for a while now but don't know if it's any good. Does anyone recommend it? If not, post yours.

Just can't abide by any condor gear. I've bought original products from Maxpedition before, then picked up the Condor knock offs. The knock offs have weird things wrong with them that seem like they wouldn't be the most cost effective ways to rip someone off, but I guess that is why they are Condor and not someone known for quality.

Voodoo Tactical SRTP, Maxpedition 12" x 5" Bottle Holder, Maxpedition Rollypoly Folding Dump Pouch. Picked these up about a year ago to see if Maxpedition was as good as I had heard, and if Voodoo was as "meh" as I heard. All 3 items have held up very well to hard use, over packing, being wet, in the sun, and the snow. What do you want to use your pack for? That will be a big factor in what you might want to think of picking up.

I heard that people had problems with some of the material they use tearing but nothing that really set off alarms. Does Maxpedition have packs with a similar amount of space? It's 3038 cubic inches

Ive got a MilTec Assault pack II
for 30€
in digital woodland camo - I kinda feel like a fag for it but the pattern looks really great.

>picture related
I havent used it in a significant way, but for the pricepoint its build quality, both aesthetical and the inner pockets + design are fantastic.

I have a Condor medium assault pack, it's great, taken it on a lot of trips. Based on that I'd assume the 3-day pack would be a good buy.

>>367949
I have a lot of Condor gear and I've never had a single problem with any of it. If it's good enough for the military it's good enough for me.

Pretty much everything condor makes, Maxpedition made first. For a hiking/camping, I would go Maxpedition for sure. They feel like a mid ground for me. Condor is rock cheap to buy, but also cheaply made. Maxpedition thus far has felt to be very reliable. LArgest I think they have right now is the XANTHA™ INTERNAL FRAME BACKPACK 2000 cu. in. / 32L. MSRP $256.99

Looking for internal, or external frame? BTW, 3000Cu.in. is just shy of 49L you know? That is a massive pack, that would almost certainly be external framed. I'd check these out for a not totally garbage but budget friendly option. store.eurekatent.com/backpacks

It's around 300 usd because Arc'Teryx charges you per dead bird logo it seems. It's roughly 30 liters, but there's a 45 liter version that also comes with a padded waist. Pic related for size, a few common items for reference but keep in mind the sleeping bag is crap is humanly impossible to compress.

The whole thing is padded on the inside which is cool if you carry more delicate stuff. So far I'm happy with it, but wish the shoulder straps had more padding.

I've got an Osprey Stratos 36 (It's in the S/M size, so it's 34L).

Could quite easily hike/camp for 3 days with this, assuming that you can replenish your water on the trail and that you're doing it in the warmer months, not in late autumn - early spring.

Not really. It is a little bit on the small side, but it's very comfortable. Would like a magnetic bladder-hose holder on the sternum as standard but you can buy those for cheap.

Berghaus Atlas + webbing = that thing. Looks like every other European military rucksack. Reminds me of Savotta's Modular LJK rucksack.

My my other bag, this is my day pack though. Technically it's a cyclists bag, but this thing kicks ass. So many pockets, small but space efficient as shit and stores a cap ton of stuff, and it's just comfortable as shit. Highly recommend deuter products.

Looks like generic us army issue warm weather boots. they're mildly confortable after maybe half a year of daily use and 50+ miles weighted walking / marching / otherwise heavy use.

Almost any other brand of boot is a better option, but none will cost you as little.

um dude its a molly pack the whole idea is its a naked bag that you can customize as much as you want just go to an army surplus store and pick up whatever you need personally i use a series of radio carriers for my phone gps and cliff bars and a seperate smaller dump pouch for whatever i feel like picking up (trash cool rocks and the like)plus its rip stop and fold up nice so its out of the way when not used then transfer it over to my molly vest for scenario paintball games the whole point of molly is to customize
