Morgan Rogue 05.19.23
I’ve the primary model of the LV18 backpack and actually find it irresistible. So I used to be tremendous pumped to have the ability to check out and evaluate LV18 2.0 by 5.11 Tactical!
This bag was packed and secured between the roll bar and window of our Jeep on our journey from Texas to Alaska. It was comforting having it there able to go.
Being 30L, the bag isn’t too cumbersome nevertheless it’s not too small both. For my body and stature, it’s good!
What I like concerning the LV18 2.0 Backpack:
- Ambidextrous CCW compartment
- Expandable facet pockets for water bottles
- Webbing on the underside to connect the 5.11 LV6 bag or might even be used to safe a tent or sleeping bag
- Chest strap with an easy-to-release buckle and it’s even moveable! I can alter the strap up or down relying on the place it’s most comfy for me
- It comes with a detachable waist strap however I’ll be sincere, I feel I misplaced the waist strap. Oops.
- Lots of group on the within
- Very discreet, doesn’t look very ‘tactical’
- Nice padded again panel
- Padded laptop computer insert pocket, which will also be used for another utility or storage, however I did carry my laptop computer in there from Texas to Alaska and my laptop computer was cosy and secure contained in the pocket.
Now right here’s what I don’t love concerning the LV18 2.0 Backpack:
- The shoulder straps will not be as comfy as I would love. If you tighten the chest strap an excessive amount of, the shoulder straps actually dig into your neck. Once loosened, it’s bearable and wearable, however I do marvel the reasoning behind making the straps so inverted. The straps on the unique model had been rather more comfy. This isn’t to say that it’s a deal breaker for this pack, it’s just a bit adjustment that must be made.
- When it’s packed, it’s so front-heavy. I don’t even have that a lot stuff within the entrance pocket, however I set it down and it instantly falls over. I want it had a bit extra of a secure base or one thing to stop that from occurring. This may be corrected when it has one thing strapped to the entrance space below the principle pockets.
The cons don’t outweigh the professionals for me. This is a superb backpack. In truth, I switched the whole lot over from my previous bug out bag into this bug out bag. I’ve even been coaching with it in my home, sort of ‘rucking’ it up and down the steps. It’s been a good way to coach.
This has turn out to be my new bug out bag, nevertheless it’s additionally going to be nice for touring, climbing, tenting, rucking and even searching. So many functions for this backpack.
At $145, the LV18 2.0 by 5.11 Tactical is a superb bag so as to add to your assortment and use it for almost any objective. Check it out!
