Mongo Versipack (Black)

This is a great bag for all your edc needs. All sorts of compartments and pockets to store all that you may need in a day. The back Pocket has been great for storing my firearm when its not convenient to wear in the supertuck. In the top pocket the little sleeves are great for holding the bit sets for my leatherman. The phone pocket holds the phone nice and snug even without the buckle snapped in. The water bottle slot holds my 1000ml camel back nicely. The one grip I can think of is the lack of a grab handle. That aside I couldnt be happier with the Mongo

This is a great bag. Well built, durable and fits my 62 250lb frame well. Concealed pocket is tight but still holds my Sig P226 .40.

Its nice if you ordered this product and like its features construction and utility. However there are so many different bags of this nature, a true review has to compare it to other tactical shoulder/sling bags in the sane category. The review has to be fairly recent as these bags usually get a yearly upgrade. I have their jumbo verapack as well as a few others. Heres the deal. This bag is going from my house to the car every day. Once in the car it remains there unless I need to tote it around town. Maxpedition is the company that sets the design standards for this and many other tactical bags. In a close second spot is Vanquest who is about to overtake the big Max. if they dont watch out. I own Vanquest as well. The Mongo is made of a ballistic nylon type treated high grade fabric whic tends to be stiff and thus holds its shape and shrugs off dirt and water easily. It has ample storage pockets but left out an administrative pocket. This is a glaring omission but I think the intent was to use this as a type of gun range bag or day hiking bag. Thats fine because I have their admin pouches as well as vanquests. But it gets half a star docking. I love the water bottle case. Can easily hold a 32 once bottle. The interior main space is large and roomy. The CCW placket is adequate for most auto handguns or can be additional storage for tablets or small computers.The other half star is because of the zippers which are quality but have the tendency to get hung up at times. likely due to the stiff material. Not a zipper flaw. Vanquest similar product uses a high quality codura and the zippers are better right out of the box. Thier material is softer and less stiff. That said Ill use the mongo as my edc bag until Vanquest gets their water pouches a little bigger. I find this size to be better suited for my needs. Ill sometimes put extra 32 oz water in main compartment and use a sea to summit 3 L dry river bag to put food and a blue ice pack. I usually bring a second bag for food and water but its nice to have the extra space for those times I only want one bag. This is a great bag, a trendsetter for the industry and should last more than a decade. Mine has the grab handles which are not shown in the picture. Look for shot show 2016 this month January 19-21. Vanquest and Maxpedetion should be duking it out. We the consumers will be the beneficiaries of this competition.

Let me start out by saying that this is a really great bag, best bag that I have found so far in its size class. I would like to see maxpedition make a couple of mods to the bag that could make it even better; maybe they will take my advice, maybe they wont.

The virtue of this bag is its durability. It is tough. On the other hand, this also means the fabric is not very flexible. With much use and over time, the bag does become more pliable. Ultimately, one buys this type of bag precisely because it is supposed to be durable and this one is.

Great quality and excellent carry on, lots of pockets and a great strap to secure your water bottle.

This versipack is tough. I mean very very you

This thing is great! I do find Maxpedition bags to be my general go-tos as I have a Wolfspur and the Fat Boy. I got this bag as I was looking for something that I could daily carry with my work machine (a Microsoft Surface Go) and my day to day tech/readiness supplies. It works beautifully. Plenty of space in the main pocket along with plenty of other pockets to fit my gear. And the ergonomics of the bag are excellent! I wish that there was one just a little bigger for when I switch to a Surface Pro ;)

I keep a camera with me at all times and this thing is perfect for that. I cannibalized some padded dividers from another camera bag to line the sides and bottom. Can carry a full size DSLR and 2 or 3 extra lenses with batteries and other accesories easily.

I love this brand but tried to save a buck by purchasing the fakes on here. The quality was not even worth the reduced cost. The counterfeit is now my dog bag and I purchased a genuine Maxpedition for my stuff. Well worth the higher price.
