It's Maxpedition, NOT "maxexpedition. His mispronunciation of the product really irks me as well as the fact that he carry's some fairytale book with him as well, (very infantile)makes me doubt his competence in reviewing this product.
@Texasoutback i know but what i meant was to carry boot laces cause if you have to use the 550 cord from your boots then you will have no boot laces. Which means no more tied boots :D
iv been thinking about buying one of these and it looks pretty good, the boot lace idea was good but i usually carry about 5 ft of paracord if not more to use as a boot lace but it is also more durable and has many more uses
I wouldn't be surprised that the pack can fit a 2-quart canteen and alot of other stuff. Besides being bought by Hikers and civilians, they also are bought by alot of Military Contractor's and security agencies. They serve well for people like that, dependable and reliable even for a pack.
Do you find that a full canteen mounted in that configuration is cumbersome given the center of gravity being low and away from the body? I might be inclined to mount the canteen on the fanny pack straps at my hip.
I typically wear my compass around my neck and under my outer shirt. Also, I prefer the sturdy bic brand lighter instead of matches - it's like having a thousand matches and an extra flint.
You sure do get a lot of complainers & jerks that respond to your videos huh? Well, I enjoyed the video, and I appreciate the review. I've thought about getting several things from Maxpedition, including a small pack they make that I might turn into my first aid kit. I'll be interested to see how it holds up as you use it, but I would recommend most things from Maxpedition. Quality stuff, and often worth the extra money. Glad you put your Bible in there too. Don't leave home without it.
dont know if anyone wrote this but that canteen may stress on your body after being so far from your center of gravity? id wear it on the cumber/belt strap.
How does that relate at all to my comment? And why do you assume I'm emo? And what does emo mean anyway? That you are perceptive to your environment and it invokes emotion?
This truly is a beauty of a pack but the snugpak response pack is just as good and a tenth of the price , i love maxpedition but its so dam pricey, but then again i love every thing snugpak make too,,
so if ur thinking of getting this pack ,please look at the snugpak response pack first
no offense nbenicewicz but if you have it straped around your wrist its pretty hard not to notice it falling off, i personally thread my belt through it and put it in my pocket cause i hate anything hanging off me but around the wrist is a super good practice if you ever do start hiking
very good video. Is the canteen on the very back a lot of weight on the lower back? Would it not be much better say over your shoulder with the carrying strap it came with. That way it would even out the weight. just my two cents, Hamm336 in washington state
i never thought of useing this type of pack for a day pack. i may try it. the thing i'm not sure about; is that the water may be to heavy and uncomfortable... is it? i always use a backpack but on short hicks this could be the key, lighter is always better. glad to see your packin a Bible that brings joy to me
please do you gear review more upclose like nutnfancy does... that'll be more enjoyable to watch .. i really like your survival videos.. but i don't like fannypacks so i din't watch this... thanx for all ur work.. good job... keep em coming..
