Vanquest Envoy 3.0 Tactical Messenger Bag - Urban EDC Bag on Steroids

[@buffalo1700]

Thank you for an ACTUAL review for the bag. I'm tired of everyone talking about what's in there bag Not what the bag is. Great video I'm ordering mine right now

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

That's because Bug Out Bag videos get more views than just bag videos ;-) You are gonna like it.

[@sillyviking1567]

Thanks Brian! i will be picking one of these up for my old man. He is a retired Marine and now a small business owner, and this is like it was made for him. Again Thanks! SV

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+Silly Viking cool. Tell him thanks for me.

[@merle7415]

Great , I believe this is the winner based on your review! Thanks Alot!!

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

I'm still using mine daily

[@larrystevens8913]

A wonderful product, I own the same bag in gray, it’s worth every dollar. I use it as a everyday bag, camera bag,I keep a hand gun in back pocket easy to get to if needed, I highly recommend this bag for whatever your needs may be.👍

[@darrellmulcahy9995]

Another great review I have the Vanquest Trident 31 I use it for travel and the missionary teaching work we do in the south pacific I have been looking at the Envoy 3 and you have help me decide yes that is what I need, Vanquest makes great American made Products

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Thya make great stuff.

[@Mrs-Lewis]

Love to see you review more vanquest stuff. I am really impressed with messenger bag. I will definitely pick one up.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Stay tuned. And you can search my channel fro a few older Vanquest videos as well

[@fredb.3618]

That's one fantastic bag!! Thanks for the review and for bringing it to my attention.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+Fred Bromm Thanks

[@ChiefinGuam]

Great review, Brian! That's an awesome bag. Added to my wishlist. Thanks!

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

It is excellent

[@brandona801]

+Survival On Purpose What knife is that?

[@kpw528]

Great video as always, Bryan. I'm not really much of a fan of the messenger bag/haversack style bags, but I do love Vanquest products. They make great gear.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+kpw528 yes they do.

[@traeucity6087]

Thank you for your excellent review of this product. I just "Liked" and subbed; and I will be purchasing one of these versatile, well built bags, to upgrade my EDC kit for 2017.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

It is bombproof

[@Krusherdawg]

The older we get the more expensive the toys (I mean, work gear lol) become. Nice quality bag, multifunctional, durable.....yeah I'll be picking one up soon, talked myself into it :)

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+Kevin Kruse you won't be disappointed.

[@vanquestgear]

Brian, thank you for an excellent review of this bag. You did an outstanding job. Thank you! Jeremy @ Vanquest Team

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+Vanquest Gear It is a really well designed and well made bag Jeremy.

[@Katzedem]

The bag looks sick!

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

It is sick cool.

[@Katzedem]

Survival On Purpose yeah!

[@tjzulu1]

Great review...looks like an awesome bag...the one I'm using looks kinda like your Targus bag you got rid of...gonna order the Vanquest Envoy 3.0 !!!

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

It is the bomb

[@joshuaritzheimer8391]

Amazing! I can't imagine how many hours it took to create this bag. I can see why it costs what it does. It looks like it's worth it.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+Joshua Ritzheimer I agree

[@Dese50]

I carry my tactical man-purse with me everywhere. In reality it's a glorified laptop bag, but that's what I love about it. To walk past me on the street no one would ever even suspect my innocuous bag contained a fully stocked first-aid kit, lock picks, knives, flashlights, small tools, paracord, etc. That's a nice looking bag in this video, but if I saw a stranger walking down the street my first thought would be "tactical" and if I think that, I wouldn't be the only one. I'm a firm believer that something looking less tactical actually makes it more tactical. That said really cool, and a mighty tempting purchase, and I just might have to think about that...

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

It looks less tactical than a big old camo backpack. And it is just so well designed and constructed....

[@Dese50]

It is indeed pretty awesome. It's on my "think about buying someday" list for sure. Thanks for sharing!

[@yaddi3434]

People don’t notice or give two shits about something looking tactical. That’s made up by the pew tubers.

[@raywalter3992]

deep thinking in that bag !!

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Yep

[@grumpyoldphart7325]

Just ordered this bag. I debated between this and the newer GOFER versions.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Mine has served me well

[@ogotuwaobuto5366]

These Vanquest bags are very nice, I wanted to get their new 2019 model but they charge an additional amount for the strap and the internal divider. As much as would have loved to have bought it, I could not justify spending nearly $200 for it. I ended up buying 5.11 Rush Messenger Lima for only $80!!! It may not be to the same exacting standards of the Vanquest but I don't think the Vanquest is worth more than double the amount.

[@CVCC]

nice review, great looking bag. it is very much like the discontinued Tenba messenger bag

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

It rocks

[@julycross]

Loved the review

[@ronniebprospecting7471]

That's a very nice bag. I was hoping they did one in camouflage. Thanks for the review.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Thanks

[@vanquestgear]

Hello ronnie b prospecting. Thanks for watching Brian's review on our Envoy 3.0. We wanted to let you know that the Envoy 3.0 is available in MultiCam and MultiCam-Black. Jeremy @ Vanquest Team

[@ALWhiteAuthor]

I think that chest/rib strap would be perfect if you used a motorcycle as your main form of transportation. Keep it to your back and out of the way but if you really really need to, just pull it around to the front for access to your concealed carry. Or a pen.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+AZ Patriot true

[@dva88]

Hi. Thanks for this review. I really enjoy it and it was very interesting.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

I still use this bag daily.

[@ryansmith8940]

Great review as always. One thing I would like to point out is leaving the reciever of your mouse plugged in to your laptop while its in a bag is a really bad idea. it can not only catch on the bag and break, but also ruin the USB port its connected to.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

I guess, but I have been doing it for years with no problems.

[@ryansmith8940]

Oh and the rollerball mouse you have, has a slot to hold the reciever in under the battery hood.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Thanks

[@austinspradling3220]

Well done review.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+Austin Spradling Thanks

[@johnsimons9039]

OK.I'm lost is the dinning room in the front or back? Nice.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+John Simons formal or casual.

[@Krusherdawg]

Bet it could hold a ton of fat wood too....can never have enough of it! Thanks again!

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+Kevin Kruse true dat

[@merle7415]

Can you excess your pens or note pads without having to open the the entire flap? I'm really torn between this bag and another , just fine tuning things before I decide..lol. The other bag I'm looking at has admin flop down flap I don't think I'll like that but again just fine tuning. I think I'm leaning toward the Envoy , this a great review and in depth.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

yes, you can open the top zipper and get inside without opening the flap

[@coreymines2]

I have yet to see a review that mentions this so maybe you can help me - I have a glock 26 and I'm wondering with a computer in the bag - does the firearm protrude / print? Not sure how thick the padding is in that concealed compartment! I'm just thinking if I set my bag down at the office in case that clears up why I care about it printing towards the back of the bag.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Mine has a Glock 23 in it and you can't tell. It might look a little lumpy but nothing like a handgun.

[@coreymines2]

+Survival On Purpose thanks Brian, great review!

[@matthewjeffres1289]

neat bag.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+Matthew Jeffres yes it is

[@merle7415]

Great Review , I like this bag but the one reason that keeps me from getting it is the Velcro...is there a way to silence it?

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Not really but it doesn't bother me.

[@jakesshopandtracktalk1835]

Nice bag. I don't really need a portable office but it's good to know heck yeah you can get something to contain it. And.... I don't kinda feel the need to carry some unrealistic mega survival kit on my person in every day life. But it's a great looking bag for somebody that needs one. Odd question, what's your favorite cooler for car camping? I got an igloo ice cube. Also an igloo 12 packer. Maybe you're a Coleman guy, I don't know.

[@jakesshopandtracktalk1835]

Note coolers have emergency uses big time.

[@jakesshopandtracktalk1835]

Especially here in hurricane country.

[@jakesshopandtracktalk1835]

BTW I hope y'all have a great time up here in the OBX this summer!

[@jakesshopandtracktalk1835]

Sorry to go on a cooler tangent but that's one piece of outdoor gear everybody and I mean everybody has and nobody ever really thinks about. But the right one could keep all of your frozen and fresh stuff from going bad in a crisis, provided you start freezing block ice when you know there's a big storm coming.

[@jakesshopandtracktalk1835]

I wish I thought of all this at once. But I love my blades I carry a couple every dang where I go. It what happens when I run out of gas for the generator? You can't really stockpile gas.

[@jeanlacroix5347]

Did it’s ok for the carry on to put under set in plane. Tks for this vid

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Thanks for watching.

[@phonecards1]

nice bag.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Yes it is

[@KYblur2u]

Any chance you can give the dimensions of the laptop you have on the bag or the model number so I can look it up?

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

It is a big one is the best I can do. I think a 17"

[@live4wild968]

Thanks Brian. Is the laptop a 17" ? I just bought a 17" and looking for a new bag. Thanks for the review

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Yes it is.

[@handyman1565]

I subscribed to you sir, Great vid.

[@antoniobotello4996]

I like your review and which LENOVO LAPTOP do you recommend, I hear that they are awesome? Can it be use to carry a work shirt and a pair of tactical boots or a pair shoes?

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Ha. I DON"T recommend a budget Lenovo. Unless you like lots and lots of add on software and consider using your laptop as a means to develop your patience. And I bet a pair of boots and shirt would fit fine.

[@edgewoodil]

just wondering ,did you buy that or did they give it to you to plug it.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

They sent it to me to review. I think I mentioned that at the beginning and end of the video, I try to make sure to do that so people will know. But, just to be clear, the wording of your question is kind of like the old joke "Do you still beat your wife?"

[@tonysalmail]

nice one!! a bit much for me but nice...

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+tony sal Thanks Tony

[@jeremyknack8288]

i will be coming through your area in a few hours if you have time

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+jeremy knack sorry. Missed his.

[@jeremyknack8288]

Will be back out that way around Wednesday

[@Hutch29]

hey so, I am 13 and my parents are SUPER opposed to me getting a fire steel even though I am pretty responsible. do you have anything I can tell them to convince them to let me get one?

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

You are going to have to work that one out yourself. I would suggest showing them you are responsible in as many other areas as possible.

[@wheelsgonewild1286]

Looks very similar to the 5.11 bag.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+Wheels gone Wild or vice versa. There are probably several similar bags out there. I can't comment on the others. All I can tell you is this one is both very well constructed and very well thought out.

[@wheelsgonewild1286]

The Vanquest does have the high visibility though.

[@ESTUDIANTESelpincha]

But...can you batton with it?

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

;-)

[@RoyFernbach]

Cool looking bag. Too expensive for me... thanks for the review video tho.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+Roy Fernbach thanks

[@stormpilgrim7443]

2:54 WOW IT'S ALIVE!!! You should have checked it before making the video, I am pretty sure there is a angry skunk inside...

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+Crusader44 now how would that happen?

[@matthewkabbash]

I love all of these reviews up until when the reviewers comment on what they put in the bag. I get you need to show the viewer what the bag holds. In the end it becomes a running commentary about why I have 10,000 feet of para cord. You on the other hand speak to the usefulness of the product. Thank you sir about keeping it to the topic. I am not into the "EDC prepping world". Thank you Thank you Thank you for not bragging about I carry 10,000 rounds of zombie killing blah blah.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Thanks for noticing. I try to show what I would want to see to evaluate a potential purchase.

[@XaBadMojoX]

No balance test..😕 :=) 12:52 👃

[@DeerheartStudioArts]

hee hee saw the skunk again 👀

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+Radianne2 Skunk? What skunk?

[@CanadianCuttingEdge]

Re Lenovo: you are so right. I have worked as a network tech for years and since IBM sold off the name Lenovo a bit less than a decade ago that brand has become complete garbage.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+Canadian Cutting Edge Bloatware.

[@CanadianCuttingEdge]

Yes, that and worse. We had more support calls for the Lenovos than the other brands of laptops we had in our fleet.

[@sirwhitecrayon2499]

This bag would better if they just left the bottle holders off. They're pretty useless once the bag is loaded. I'd prefer to use a MSM Water Bottle Corset instead.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

I just consider them pockets. A power bank fits perfectly.

[@JBOutdoorsAndMore]

love the video and I like what you did with your Channel you have my subscription would love to have your support as well keep up the good work going to check out your other videos thank you for sharing my friend
