Maxpedition Entity 27 CCW-Enabled Laptop Backpack 27L (Charcoal)

Not big enough to fit clothes for a week long vacation. Good enough as a range backpack or as 1 or 2 day getaway. Its definitely smaller than youd think

Ive looked at Maxpedition gear for a few years now, and never really gone down that road - until now. Always settled for something a little cheaper, a little gaudier, a little...less than. But I kept eyeballing this gear for the appearance, the NTT (non tactical tactical), and the reviews - which were usually glowing - until I finally pulled the trigger (so to speak). A very solid, well crafted work of art. Its as fun to wear as it is to load up with gear. Every seam, every zipper, every aspect is designed for form AND function. Very satisfied.

Great pack for conceal.

Tough. Comfortable. Well made.

Very comfortable to have on your back even with a laptop in the pouch. Very durable. Plenty of storage. Love that it has a carry concealed section. Glad I bought it!

I upgrade to this from a Maxpedition Falcon II because I wanted to move away from that tacticool look. Ive used this backpack for about 5 months now and I can confidently say I dont think backpacks can get any better. There are a couple of complaints Ive seen in the reviews and I wanted to address those: 1 - The side pockets are zippered at an awkward angle. This is backpack is designed for concealed carry. There are handles on the side of the backpack so you can sling it to the front of you body without having to fully take it off your back and still have one strap around one of your arms. These side pockets are designed to be accessed from that type of carry. People dont seem to realize this. 2. The water bottle holders on the outside of the pack suck. Agreed. BUT - they also included INTERNAL water bottle holders that work perfectly and can even accommodate a 32 oz nalgene bottle. I only use the external water bottle pockets for quick access, flat items like gum or whatever. 3. - There is no outside pocket. I dont see this an an issue as there is ample organization options in the main compartment that I can access as easily as if there were an outside pocket. Plus if you use the internal water bottle pockets, then you can drop stuff in those outside pockets if you really need them that available. Also the two main compartments have an option for TSA locks. Less unsecure pockets = a potentially more secure bag. Overall, I can tell a lot of love went into designing all this backpack. I was a huge Maxpedition fan before. After experiencing the quality and attention to detail on this pack Ill never buy a backpack from any other brand. Worth every cent.

this bag is expensive but very well made, strong and holds up carrying heavy stuff without any tears or damage.

Excellent!

I traded in my Maxpedition sling bag for a less tactical look with the Elite 27. The downside is I miss the modular accessability. The shoulder strap mounted pouches are truly dorky looking. There are interior and exterior side zip pockets as well as side bottle pockets but if you fill the interior zip pockets the exterior ones can hold very little and water bottles do not fit. But Im sure the pack holds 27l of ping-pong balls somehow!

I like this backpack a lot and its not as obvious as some of the other backpacks with molle all over it. The compartments are roomy and the zippers and pulls are very well made. The computer compartment has plenty of room for a 15 laptop and tablet. The main compartment has two zippered pouches and side pockets. It also has two outside side compartments for charging cables, pens and other accessories. There are also two back-side zippered pockets for conceal carry. I have traveled with this bag all over the world in about a year and it has held up very well.
