Versatility is what sustains the Bugout Bag’s popularity. Great for business, vacation or a day trip. The generous main compartment gives ample space for cargo. Expands to provide even more space. Airline carry-on friendly, but large enough to pack multiple days of clothing. Tuck-away straps makes bag check-in easier. A great product and practical solution to fulfill the needs of virtually any traveler.

Review: Great luggage bag - I use this bag for travel. I have learned through experience that a backpack design is far superior to a roller or a duffel because it allows you to carry luggage long airport distances in comfort while keeping your hands free. This bag has all the attributes you need for that purpose...a clamshell opening for easy packing, a hip belt, compartments for laptop and tablet. It is large enough for a week's worth of travel and is overhead bin friendly. I did ten days in Russia with this bag as carry on. All the straps tuck away and convert the bag into a duffel arrangement. Downsides: This bag is heavy at about five lbs. all those pockets, MOLLE attachments, etc, add weight. Second downside is the fairly large size if you don't need it. This is a 47L bag without expansion. When the bag is half full the bottom sags down shapelessly too low and rides on the top of your butt. This would not be a good option for a hiking daypack. I also have a timbuk2 luggage backpack, which is an excellent smaller option. About half the size, much lighter, one large compartment and a laptop sleeve. No hip belt. But works very well.
Review: Great for traveling. Ok for hiking. Works as a Carry on. - I have had this pack for over 2 years. I was concerned about a couple of the reviews about the quality of the bag. At the price and the capacity of the bag, I overlooked those problems and bought it, especially for the carry on use. I bought the black version, that I think is a big lighter and thinner than the other ones. It may nt be for combat use, but for travel and hiking it has proved to be a very good pack. It has enough zippered pockets in the second biggest section. I brought it through week travels to New Orleans and California with no problems. All carry on. I still zippered it tight and it worked well. There are a lot of organizational pockets in the smaller sections. I carried enough for a week travel with camera equipment and lenses. My friend who drove me to the airport remarked on how heavy it was, 25-30 lbs and no loose zippers. The less perfect characteristics are that there is a soft bottom with no cushion, so that if a hard item is there, it could be uncomfortable. It does seem to hang lower so that it does touch lower than the hips in the back. For hiking and for long walking in the airport, it is important to organize items so that softer cushion items like clothing is on the bottom and above that are heavy items toward the back. The larger section does have straps, but is not the most organized. I do not have a bag that hold this much luggage and clothing. Perfect for carrying a lot of stuff. Need a protective cover for a computer.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I have foliage green bag already. Is the acu camo bag made of the same material. Im wondering why the price is so much cheap**
A: It's Non-IR, 1000-D. Very high quality. If they ever offer the same bag in black at this price, I'm getting another!!!

**Q: Are the dimensions INTERNAL or EXTERNAL measurement?**
A: When I ordered mine, I was concerned that the dimensions would exceed carryon restrictions.  I actually found that if I measured from seam to seam or zipper to zipper, the length was only about 20 to 21 inches and the width was only about 14 inches.  The depth was actually more like 9 inches (without the expansion) unless you compressed.  If you pack it full and let it puff out, it can get larger, but it is easy to compress it down to fit the smallest of carry-on limits, subject to weight.  Speaking of weight, the black one is more like 4 pounds not the 5.5 advertised.  I think that is because the 600D is much thinner and lighter than the 1000D of the camo versions.

**Q: original or fake? the soc logo isnt stiched outside and is stamped on the velcro**
A: Original.  The logo is stitched in.  I've had this bag for five years now and it still holds up extremely well.

**Q: Is the fabric the bags are made from waterproof?**
A: No, if you want waterproof look for the Military Molle packs.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Long term review
*by S***E on August 10, 2021*

I first purchased this backpack in 2016 while I was on my way to basic training. 5 years later I can say this backpack has served me well. I've used this every day for the past 5 years, taking it to work and using it to go on vacation. It holds 3 days worth of clothes, toiletries, my laptop, and can even squeeze my xbox and a controller in there with room to spare. Durability is astronomical, has zero wear and tear, all zippers, clips, and hooks are in pristine condition. I've even thrown plates in to go rucking. Seriously a buy it for life item. If you need one backpack that does everything look no further. 2021 UPDATE: Backpack still holding strong. No signs of wear or tear. I still take it to and from work every day and take it as my main travel pack. Has survived many plane trips as carry on and checked luggage, even took it on deployment. Legit the only backpack you'll ever need. I'll probably pass this down to my kids.
