I spent nearly 8 years as an Army paratrooper and always found myself carrying more than I wanted in bags ill-suited to their purpose. This year my wife and I took the trip of a lifetime - 3-weeks in Australia. I needed a bag small enough for a carry-on, comfortable enough for every day carry, big enough for essentials, easily organized, and durable. The Tactical Rush 24 fit the bill. Whether touristing in Brisbane or exploring the outback or cruising the reef, this one bag did it with ease. Very durable fabric and zippers held up to rough airline handling as well as inclement weather (when it rains in the outback, it RAINS). It shed most dirt and sticky red mud was taken care of with mild soapy water and a brush. It didn't stain like my boots or some other synthetic fabrics. I carried first aid supplies, survival gear, hydration pack, full camera and tripod set-up, extra clothes, rations, and more. The multitude of pockets allowed for a flexible packing plan that could be adjusted easily for different activities. Also, once I learned the layout, finding things by feel in the dark became a snap. My few wishes are small things: - widen the sunglasses pocket; I use oversize wraparounds and I needed to twist and turn to get them in - the top 2 small pockets are almost too small; make this one pocket openable from either end for electronics - allow the chest strap to be more height adjustable Overall, excellent bag. 3-weeks of being my primary carry, it saw as much of Australia as we did. Rough terrain, inclement weather, clumsy tourists, and tons of handling during boat, plane, car, caravan, and trolly travel. No worse for the adventure, I see this becoming my bugout bag in the future. High marks for a great product.Read full review

I have wanted a 5.11 backpack for a while but was initially put off by the high price tag. I finally bought one for myself for college and am amazed by the quality. It is made of a very durable material and has a ton of useful pockets. I can see myself using this backpack for years to come. Definitely worth the money.

Great quality, love how much room this bag has. I have the Rush 12 so having a bigger bag for travel is great. I recommend buying 5.11 gear.
