I bought a maxpedition gearslinger bag about 10 years ago to carry my type 1 diabeetus medication. I can’t recall the model name (about the size of a gallon jug) but I’ve carried this thing with me everywhere, every day, for the last 10 years and it still looks new, the strap is stiff, and the elastic loop (that I’ve never used) still has tension. Provided they make their bags with the same quality, I’ll always buy these bags.

[@docwilkey]

Thanks for the info! Loved your ending with the cigar and cell phone.

[@HavikRPG]

Awesome great review. No bs no music, no montages nor camera zooming in and out. Nice.

[@BeanDip0913]

That bag is perfect for a bugout sorta deal for some extra non critical items. Love it, thanks Sootch!

[@PatriotPrepper]

Excellent review sootch. Great bag. I love Maxpedition - can't get enough of their products. KEEP ON PREPPING

[@coltonlhathaway]

Great review!!!! after seeing this video i actually went out and bought one, and i was even more impressed with it in person. it fits everything that i need in a rough and ready package.. THANKS SOOTCH

[@keithhutchison5198]

Another great review of the perfect Man purse. I can say that because I got one too!

[@BlackwolfW87]

Haha awesome "Blooper" at the end. Another great review Sootch, as always!

[@305ssmonte]

I love your Maxpedition reviews

[@livingsurvival]

Nice little pack!

[@torgomax]

Sootch is one of the best gear reviewers on youtube!

[@TheFossilChannel]

Love bag, use this for my trail stewarding days and for rescuing lost and injured hikers. The newer updated version of this has d ring attachments on the sides to put a shoulder strap on.

[@MultiRusty111]

I absolutely love this bag.my current waist pack,a Jansport,is made of nylon and has seen it's better days from all its use.Not meant for an EDC bag.I've viewed other sootch00 reviews on Maxpedition products.Thanks sootch00 your video was most helpful.I'm def.sold on this bag.

[@NPSurvival]

Seriously, these people that think that you are a commercial for Maxpedition obviously haven't used their products. I have their Condor II daypack and it is the best pack that I have ever used, by far.

[@acmleynes]

I've got some few Maxpeditions bags and pouches too. What makes it stand out from my 5.11 tactical is the quality of the fabric. The polyurethane really makes a lot of difference in terms of water resistance and makes the bag somewhat stiffer, which is great. Im thinking about getting this Proteus and rig it at the bottom of my Falcon 2 using the straps on the backpack to serve as an extension for more space when I need more than a day-pack.

[@AppalachianFreedom]

I'm with Mrs. Sootch on that smoking business! -- Thank you as always sir!

[@xxants2286xx]

Thanks so so much for this review i needed as much info on this bag as possible great review

[@NinjaAegis]

very sweet bag ill have to check that out! just got my second maxpedition bag and i love em

[@luxetveritas4141]

Greetings from England! Another superb video... I loved your English accent at the end! Ha ha ha ha! God Bless America, long live the Republic. Amen brother.

[@ElGrandeDawg]

I watch all your vids just to watch the endings. Lol. Great review.

[@shadowalker1776]

Thanks for the info and your great videos.

[@dafrogtoad]

Nice review of a well made product Sootch..Thanks.

[@EnduringEagle]

Great videos. Love the trailers at the end. Lol..

[@BonnevilleTB7]

I have this same bag in black. I love it and use it in a very similar way to yours. Great review, keep up the good work. Greetings from UK..

[@Poolisfilm]

Great review !

[@Solanum20]

I really dig the small duffle bag look, also the ending was quite hilarious.

[@mjf712000]

Great job will be looking into their products.

[@GeorgiaPrepper]

Love the ending.....how true that is

[@Sunbeachsmile]

Great product review. It is nice getting firsthand feedback on product of which is why I subscribed to your channel. On a side note, I always look forward to your comedic video endings. lol Keep up the great work! I love Maxpedition products and bought the Fatboy and Mini Chest Rig.

[@Dabobeans]

Sootch, great video as always. Just purchased one using Sootch as my discount code for 10% off...thank you. Have used your discount code a number of times with Maxpedition and also on the leather gun belt you did a video on a few months back. BTW, the belt is everything you said it was and I wear it daily and put it through lots of hard use. Appreciate your channel buddy and of the time you give to us for the reviews and guidance.

[@deceptivepanther]

Took me a while to figure that T-shirt! Nice.

[@DrThunder88]

Awesome shirt!

[@CommonCentsOutdoorsman]

I don't own a max but can tell that they are vey well made and of high quality. Can't justify spending the money on these unless my well being depended on bullet proof gear and it hasn't yet. I have a $10 waist pack that does the job for me. Nice vid!

[@nutthrower]

just seen your vid here on the proteus, good job, but really enjoyed the ending - to funny, thanks for your review

[@NinjaAegis]

love the endings too!

[@Say0n]

i use the Proteus to carry my lunch to work along with other tools like my Leatherman Surge at the side, HD Drive, headphones mp3 player and other tiny things, . incredible product. even i have been asked in the street where do i bought the bag since here in my country there are only cheap copies. This bag with the Janus are very cool.

[@TheGunGarage20]

Great shirt man !

[@oldairforcedude]

I've been looking for a bag like this, and I think the $60 is a good price, given all that it contains and workmanship. I like pockets and cubbyholes. This really fits the bill for me. thanks for the great review.

[@scooter17568]

Nicely done.

[@AlexBianco100]

Love the last 20secs

[@218cblue]

Nice job on the video Sootch! I'm putting together the same setup with the Proteus and EDC Organizer and would love to see what you carry in the smaller pouch.

[@ArrowSmith95]

that's a really cool carry bag sootch . if ya got two of those you could put them on the sides of a molly vest. also great video like always and keep up the amazing work

[@bozz88able]

That Proteus fits right into the main compartment of the Sabercat.

[@hoosierarcher]

A pair of Perry suspenders help distribute the weight and attach to the belt in front and the MOLLE webbing in the back.

[@Abigsky]

Cool bag review, thanks

[@notvictormanuel1]

Great video and review. Thanks for the laughs. Definitely subscribing

[@CVObservatory]

lol I work for YKK. Nice plug in. I don't work on the zipper side though. We make Cosmolon for the new military uniforms and the compression buckles. I like the Proteus pack. Thanks for showing yours.

[@midwestpreppers1910]

I use the Proteus for my Med Bag

Awesome shirt :D

[@cloudsrain8753]

Nice reviews

[@CollectingSilver]

Cool purse.

[@dsandersmd]

have it, love it! nice ending, have that problem also!

[@Eslamizar]

nice little bag.... i dig the shirt lol

[@RealityStar9]

I use an old camera bag. It has the same lay out minus the webbing. Like to upgrade so thanks for the vid!

[@Wabaanimkii]

Thank you maxpedition! I have been waiting forever for a good pack. Now I can remove that condor B.S from my infidel belt and slap on something worthy of it's quality.

[@erichill5206]

I have an idea for the folks at Maxpedition. Please suggest to them to include an H-harness! that would be perfect.

[@ldgrey1963]

I carry a larger bag for my EDC stuff.Not too keen on the OD Green but they do make a good bag. Thanks for the review perhaps you can do a review on a larger Maxpedition bag.

[@kumbackquatsta]

i think it's need over the shoulder straps, when thats fully loaded, and youre running with it around your waist it bounces around, its needs suspenders like an old school lbv

[@Zack_Darce]

great video

[@Bulwark1911]

The Jeroboam and Proteus are excellent vehicle bags too ! Don't balk at the price of Maxpedition's gear, the tough factor on these bags is over the top. I bought a Remora, then a Malaga, then accessory pouches - the list keeps growing and growing ! Do yourself a favor, and try just ONE maxpedition bag. You won't be dissapointed I promise you that. I use a Gearslinger for EDC, and get constant comments on how awesome it is - everyone wants to know where I got it, so I tell them ^.^

[@painbroker351]

......fanny-pak........ god bless and keep up the good reviews brother!!

[@Ranger4321]

Haha, nice ending there sootch00

[@Ivarsson68]

A couple of D-rings for a shoulder strap would make this bag even more versatile. Thank's for the review !

[@michaelhursey9]

Henrik Ivarsson it has 2 D rings, 1 on each side for a strap, which is how I use it.

[@jasonzayas5487]

😂😂😂 all that for a pair of sunglasses 😂😂😂

[@WanderingBeast]

love the end

[@SOS_Recon]

Now that's a fanny pack I would be proud to wear out in public! Of course, I would get arrested in my town for having that knife hanging on there! Always the best product review Sooch.

[@OregonMisfit]

I'm looking for something just like this but with a place for a water bottle. Thanx for sharing Sootch

[@pickledbologna]

Maxpedition Jumbo Versipack ... check it out ... love mine

[@dragon0037]

Great review...I bought one. Do you use small molle locks?

[@Epyon0061]

@sootch00 First time post on your channel, but I've watched for what seems like years. I have several Maxpedition bags and you are 100% right, "you will know better." Really enjoy your work, always look forward to new videos and don't let these naysayers drag you down.

[@EuGarais]

Inspired by your video I'm now proud owner of Proteus. I've got an ESEE Escabar and I would like attach it like you attached your ESEE DPx H.E.S.T.. Thanks!

[@MrPailio]

and greetings from Norway Scootch!!!

[@Narrowroadpenn]

Cool Bag! Not sure if I would carry it fanny style though. I'm sure it has a sling option.

[@Ppanepinto2002]

Can you this with a shoulder harness, and if so which would you advise?

[@vampire847]

lmao i loved the ending! another great informational vid! but i dont think id ever wear a buttpack... id rather get one there gear slingers

[@montecasler215]

I have been learning from yours and others videos on what to put in a bag or pack. But what I never see is super glue this item will fix stuff and will close a wound and I dont see eye drops or better would be contact solution use it like eye drops or flush out a cut or as a cleanser and a lightweight fire starter is 0000 steel wool and natural almonds taste great and are way good for you i use the small plastic folgers cans to hold 300 rounds of 9mm or a roll of toilet paper or kotex which is better than gauze pads thanks for your videos and hopefully we can all learn from each other

[@mariusmarius4832]

One of the things I find I like to do a lot with my bag... Is just to graaaab the handle..... Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha..!!

[@Lawiah0]

Get'n a bit large for a butt bag (imo). I have a similar size setup, which attaches to my support system and straps to my thigh. Given the choice to carry the Proteus or the Molle Assault Pack III, my choice would be the MAP. Good review.

[@enscribe]

They new "cool" term is lumbar pack. lol. Thanks for the review.

[@MisterSoul99]

Now that is a useful piece of equipment.... a real "man bag". :)

[@clint4237]

I really liked that waterproof vial. Can you tell me the name of it? I can't seem to find it on Amazon, but I really liked the size of it.

[@luisantoniomarrega1120]

Fala amigo. Esta bolsa é perfeita e a prova d'água isso é importante para preservar os pertences guadados. Abraço e Deus salve as Américas! Rio de Janeiro Brsazil

[@elreservista]

Hi sootch, fits well Glock 17 or 19 there? Thanks a lot

[@stevebarnes2]

@im4ak2 It's the old ESEE HEST, he reviewed it 3 vids before this...

[@LDNRNG27]

@sootch00 are there two variants? one with two straps and the logo on top and one with one strap and the logo in front? which is the newer version / better?

[@ricstormwolf]

It comes in black. I want to add this to my bug out bag as an exterior piece.

[@Whipstorm]

I would love to have a Maxpedition bag, but Im a budget prepper, so maybe someday. It looks way cooler than a fanny pack.... cough cough Nutn....lol

[@MatoVuc]

interesting AK selector lever t-shirt

[@TheBattleSCAR]

Thanks for the video review. I absolutely love butt packing.

[@bunnystew]

I use that as a range bag!

[@Castleknight]

Got a good laugh out of your funny ending.

[@Nerfball6]

I only wish the belt wasn't actually fastened to the bag! I'm thinking about using one of these attached to a pistol belt and ALICE suspenders as a butt pack. Stuffing the belt in the back seems to fatten it up a lot... and I'd hate to cut the belt off!

[@kessler003]

ill never carry a pack like that!!! my dream bag is the NOATAK... just cant afford it. =( u r lucky sootch, u get em all for free!!

[@johna6291]

hm, I've seen some proteus packs that have shoulder strap rings up top. The one shown in this video doesn't have them... or, am I wrong?

[@PennsylvaniaPlinker]

You should do a review on the Maxpedition Sabercat

[@YTeradicant]

hollowpointkid I've been looking for one to buy , can't find any :(

[@glennschaffer9870]

How did you attach the knife to that bag?

[@LDNRNG27]

ill get this

[@teddydc2]

looks a lot like the Snugpak Response Pak which is a lot cheaper. It would serve great as a bike/hike pack.

[@bigbluemsp]

@sootch00 Don no need to defend yourself brother. We know you are not a pitchman but a avid consumer looking out for others and what will work for them.

[@RamSkirata]

@sootch00 ok, thank you :)

[@TheDD563]

Don't forget it mates perfectly with a MOLLE backpack when things go very wrong.... My Daughter's EDCs are both a proteus in Digital ... They can be attached in a minute to their BOBs and we are off....
