Maxpediton TT26 Backpack Review: EDC Meets Bushcraft

[@nwill3142]

Binge watching Sootch videos is the best use of my day off

[@SensiblePrepper]

Thanks Bother! I appreciate it

[@SgtBooker44]

That’s how I spent the pandemic lockdown.

[@jaredwiggins539]

@@SensiblePrepper not necessarily every Backpack/Duffle Bag made by Military/Outdoor/Tactical Companies has 2 be without Military/Tactical webbing on the Exterior every single time 2 have that Grayman appearance/look because Grayman can also be Color Scheme Based in a way!

[@billbog25]

Solid bag. Just ordered the TT12. I just need it for light duty. Going to theme parks. Shopping. Etc etc. And for that it should be perfect. I know the 12 doesn't have all the features of the 26 but it has the most essential for me.

[@bruceevans8837]

I've managed to get along without an edc pack and will probably continue, but I do have several pieces of Maxpedition gear one of which is a Fleigerduffel which is the greatest travel bag ever made (for me). Maxpedition is first class gear, best materials, excellent craftsmanship and innovative design. My second favorite piece of Maxpedition gear is a 5x12 bottle holder I carry my Jetboil Flash in, it's perfect.

[@captainpicard8629]

Walked on that bridge many times. The park in downtown Greenville, SC.

[@YoooItsRex]

It’s gotta be one of the best downtown scenes in the country, but I may be biased.

[@ttygre8963]

I’ve always liked maxpedition except for the suspension systems. The shoulder pads are narrow, thin and under padded especially when you’re carrying some weight. A wide and padded hip belt would be very helpful also.

[@Jammerjim]

Love Maxpedition. I've been waiting to see this bag. Looks like I'm getting the stink eye again when my order comes in lol.

[@SensiblePrepper]

I feel your pain Jim! Lol! It's worth it : )

[@alexanderweaver4838]

Brother, you're not alone! My wife calls me the "bag man" and shakes her head when a new bag or backpack arrives.

[@OnRappel]

It's worth it cause sensible prepper will get his 10% cut.

[@alexanderweaver4838]

Thanks for reviewing this Maxpedition product. It's an awesome looking pack and would be a great EDC bag for my purposes. I've been a 5.11 fan for years and use a grey pack for EDC. Although efficient, it lacks in areas and frankly find them irritating. I picked it up for its looks and it was on sale at one third the MSRP. I love all of the Maxpedition pouches I've acquired. I will definitely give this one a try...and thanks for the discount code.

[@redfaux74]

That is a nice bag. I would give $200 for that. And I love the earthy muted colors. The extra large openings sold me.

[@TacGeorge]

I have my condor almost 9 years and i use it every day at work and it is like new.

[@clamum]

I have the gray Maxpedition Entity 27 EDC backpack, I think I bought it after seeing sootch review it lol. I like it a lot and really like how they use that seatbelt material, it's really soft and strong.

[@davidbaize4825]

Great video! Awesome looking bag. Y’all seem to be having a lot of fun making this video😁👍

[@jeffslaven]

I own a lot of Maxpedition gear (much of which is a direct outcome of your reviews) and I have zero complaints!

[@SensiblePrepper]

Thanks Jeff! Their bags last forever. Glad to help.

[@jager6863]

Nice Bag - Maxpedition is a First Rate product line, thumbs up!!!!

[@SensiblePrepper]

Thanks Kevin! I've been a fan of Maxpedition for a long time. Great Packs

[@thomasbrandon5111]

Love Maxpedition. Been using there stuff for at least 15 yrs. This pack would make a good etc for sure. Tman

[@alswann2702]

Always been a Camelback guy. Just upgraded to the Rubicon. Gotta say I like that grey man look though.

[@greekveteran2715]

Maxpedition and Tasmanian Tiger, are the 2 backpacks, pouches etc makers, I always suggest to people. If you combine products from both companies, you end up with perfect gear, for a your activities. From edc, to the outdoor activities, even for the military. Both Companies are just excellent.

[@titanpreparedness]

Great looking bag. If it comes in black im sold

[@reginaschmid2657]

That is definitely a different take on their design of bag! The more I was watching this video, the more I saw it as an edc bag. Once you showed the enclosed tote, I thought to myself, shopping!!!!! Great for edc and grocery shopping!! Lol

[@CytoplasmicGoo]

Maxpedition! Big fan of their stuff, they are a bit pricey but you get what you pay for.

[@MkGreene]

That looks like a great bag. Do wish it was fitted for a water pack though. I have a Maxpedition Gyrfalcon and it's a really good bag, no real complaints.

[@jrgfox]

I was literally in Greenville today checking out the city and was in that exact overlook spot you have on the thumbnail. Would of been cool to meet you. Cheers.

[@SoloHiker1]

Love the pack, was issued one when I was active duty...but hate that pink paisley shirt! LOL

[@jeffmiller1159]

I really like this bag. I'd like to see it in a single strap sling bag option. Good review...

[@SensiblePrepper]

Thanks Jeff! Knowing Maxpedition they have one in the works.

[@madtownangler]

I use a maxpedition bag every day and I get 2-3 years out of it. Any other bag I'm lucky to get one year. So it's worth the money to me while riding my bike to work in the rain and snow. Usually one zipper goes bad at a time.

[@AmethystRebellion]

Always love the instrumentals in your videos! If you don't mind me asking, where do you find them? Unless some of them are your original tunes? 😁😎 Love from Pittsburgh PA man!

[@SensiblePrepper]

I get most of my music from Epidemic Sounds. It's a monthly subscription and it's not cheap but they have the best music. Thanks JR

[@JoeFrohlich]

I have a wolfspur v 2.0. I really like it.

[@Scarywoody]

Problem with Maxpedition is they last so long you never really need a new bag. Still using my baby condor from 2008.

[@bobbymalcich63]

good job on the video sootchoo!!!!

[@gbruceg5138]

I love the bag and its unique features. I’d buy it in a heartbeat but the deal breaker is that it doesn’t appear to have a padded yoke system for its shoulder straps.

[@1happygal2bhere50]

Nice bag

[@mattturner568]

I'm just getting into EDC and not sure what bag to go with as a beginner or what exactly to put in it. Would love some suggestions.

[@j.jonahjameson3025]

[@learnshareevolve1842]

Nice looking pack. It would be really hard for any company to get me away from Vertx though.

[@allanbranson]

I’m with you-my gamut has been rocking and rolling for a while now.

[@johnwitt6101]

So, what bag would you take out for a long hiking journey. Any suggestions?

[@thomaswayneward]

I would not order anything from Maxpedition after my experience with them. I bought their products for years, for myself and as gifts. One Christmas they had a two for one sale and I bought two large suitcase type bags. One arrived and one never arrived. When I called them they were snotty and made a joke of my concerns, I could actually hear some of the employees in the background, laughing at my request. Unbelievable attitude. After months, someone called from the company and offered to send a bad, IF they could find one in inventory. By that time I had it and didn't pursue it.

[@clamum]

If that's actually what happened, I'd venture to say that it wasn't a normal experience.

[@ericjudd9603]

Thanks man👍

[@travette2011]

One thing I’m curious about that wasn’t covered in your review was anything about putting armor in the bag and how well that worked? Love your stuff though, always excellent reviews and videos.

[@geraldmiller8973]

i don't think a tank or armored personnel carrier will fit in that bag.

[@antoniobotello4996]

Are going to be reviewing on the MAXPEDITION HAVYK BACKPACK?

[@unexplained1481]

Sooch, how well does the bottom of the bag support a PCC?

[@jonnyt16]

I can't believe you still haven't reviewed the Vanquest Ibex 35. Its literally the best pack out there.

[@bsouza4441]

Maxpedition good stuff but it costs more than 30days of payment here in Brasil :/

[@geico1975]

Nice looking pack.

[@Fricker112]

OKAY EVERYBODY STAY CALM IT'S HAPPENING. I'm a bushcrafter like I'm big into it and I am a huge supporter of EDC from firearms to zippo's and knives and now we can have the best of both worlds. I mean it might not replace the TA Trekker but man Go to reach for my hatchet see a dangerous person BAM EDC makarov. Now the real question is can it fit a Kalashnikova? (ak 47)

[@DrScottBland]

I don’t know that I’ve ever held a maxpedition pack, the only two I have that are “nicer” packs are from goruck. Anyone have experience with both to offer a comparison?

[@omihurst]

Seems very cheap compared to my Vertx EDC Ready Pack Cordura Lite Bag, 6 years now of pure daily abuse and is good, there is no way this Boy-scouts bag will last me, but I love my Maxpedition velcro wallet. The Vertx EDC Ready Pack Cordura Lite Range Bag is packed with practical features that make it more than just an ordinary range bag or backpack. Carry your water bottle, laptop, a change of clothes, and a multitude of other essentials in separate zippered compartments in these Range Bags from Vertx.

[@tacticalceo685]

Nice pack Sootch and good video just a little too pricey .

[@SensiblePrepper]

Thanks Brother! Maxpedition is expensive but they last forever. Good thing there are a lot of choices : )

[@RyuzakiReaper]

This backpack does not seem like it's for adults or like it's for short torso type of people. I know Maxpedition has the typhoon which is great because it goes down to your pelvic bone the issue I have with this bag is that it's short and the straps will fray or snap later on from extended/daily use. I really wish they would widen and reenforce the straps and add in padding on the upper area to prevent discomfort from extended use.

[@geraldmiller8973]

[@jamesgreco8246]

I assumed they were American made for the price. Mine was made in Vietnam. I Would have bought a Vertx if I'd known.

[@johnmelucci1452]

Great backpack but honestly 511 backpacks are much better backpacks all around. They also make discrete packs like this as well. Check out 511 before pulling the trigger on this. You won't be disappointed. 511 makes in my opinion the best backpacks on the planet. Military, time, tested and approved.

[@jimmy8693]

Had one of the sling bags for about 15 years, still going strong. This one is not something I’d buy tho. It reminds me of a platyous (the animal not the water bag).

[@SensiblePrepper]

Thanks Sherrie! Sounds like a good video subject. I love Survival Lily's channel. kzbin.info

[@scoutndad1941]

Meh! Kinda boring and $178! I’d rather have the Vulture, condor or falcon at that price point. Granted those look more militaristic which I think is the point of the video, but those products from them look far more functional and a better bang for the buck especially with a hip belt to take the load off the shoulders. I get it, a lot of day packs don’t come with a hip belt, but alot of day packs also come in at half the price for the same function.

[@neadventure4871]

Can you fly in those shoes?

[@thetacticalape8852]

Idk, this one just doesn't do it for me - especially at the price point. If you want a good, budget friendly edc bag I can personally recommend Cannae Pro Gear. I love their 37 liter Sarcina pack I personally use it every day. Rock solid and very incognito.

[@rockhumper8843]

Is it made by Mericans?

[@JeffWallace2009]

$178.00? You can get the Direct Action Dragon Egg or Ghost which are superior to this bag. Sure, they’re tactical bags, however, any backpack, regardless of color or the absence of Molle raises suspicion. You profile the person, not the bag. These designer bags or Gray-man series will most likely have a laptop in them (attractive to thieves).

[@irwindrew]

If your going to go to 500D from 1000D cutting your coast dramatically yet telling it will still do the job your going to have to cut the price! It’s like the big sticker that tells you designed in America (made in Taiwan though I own a kodiak and a mongo but that is the is old maxpedition stuff.

[@SensiblePrepper]

Tim is originally from Taiwan and his products are made there.

[@nmr6988]

I will never understand why all bags and backpacks do not follow the design and setup of the Maxpedition bags. it's impossible not to be organized when you are carrying a Maxpedition.
