The Best Rugged Backpack? - Carhartt Review

[@1eparry]

I like the smaller pouches more than the pack itself. I can definitely think of several uses for that waterproof pouch already.

[@VincentSantos-q5g]

I bought this bag for myself and I can say 2 years later I'm glad I did,I always get compliments on it.

[@JCarrollTV]

Thanks for the review. Just purchased this and the larger cooler.

[@bladethorn]

Oh my gosh! I’m so lucky I found this video! I was going to buy the hybrid tote but the modular system is absolutely what I need!

[@puiazaidarhzauva9928]

I love mine!! I use it for my baby daughters diapers, wet wipes, baby wrap etc.., amazing review !!

[@zirahuenguerrero3278]

When i was a kid i would wear my dad's huge sherpa lined jacket just for fun, now i'm in love with an old detroit jacket i found second hand (still in great shape and color). Great brand overall.

[@deutsch1526]

Such a cool pack. Never seen a bag that lets you customize it and add on...Leave it to Carhartt to keep making things better! Great choice for a review - thanks Carl. (I just bought the large pack, weatherproof case and the waist pack!)

[@CarlMurawski]

Totally agree! Enjoy!

[@rehorst180]

Thanks for the video, I wasn’t even aware this was a product that carhartt produced. Great option for those that need flexibility in their work or play.

[@CarlMurawski]

Glad it was helpful!

[@repairdrive]

Hmmm.... could make a good fishing backpack too. 😊

[@markbingamon9351]

I have to agree with you... The pack by itself look to be $119 in the picture and then at the end you said you got the whole works for $200... That is reasonably priced Oh, No Doubt!!!! This is something I will check out because it definitely has its uses oh... The man pack I mentioned before watching the video is more of a man bag or man purse LOL. Just for daily errands Etc

[@shadhutchison6578]

I have the larger Carhartt backpack. With the separate laptop pocket. Not shown here. It’s the best pack I have ever had. Lots of pockets and I use it on the work site and I have travelled with it for a year flying almost twice a week.

[@shadhutchison6578]

It’s the Legacy Deluxe Work Backpack with 17 inch laptop compartment.

[@ajohnson153]

You should do a video on Mystery Ranch. They make rugged backpacks and bags for military and wildland firefighters. I'd be interested in your opinion.

[@CarlMurawski]

You're right, and I've heard they introduced some less expensive options recently.

[@Yessicuhhh]

Thanks for this through review! I’m a field botanist and it’s hard to find a durable backpack that can hold all my gear and handle bushwhacking through dense chaparral in the rain. I’m going to give this a try and hopefully it holds up! :)

[@piewithmoustachepwm]

I like to watch reviews of backpacks, especially since I always compare them to the good old Soviet backsack Veshmeshok. Just a cotton sack with a strap, sometimes with 1 extra pocket

I use the Vertx GAMUT 2.0 bag! Best backpack I've had 😊👍🏻 But this system looks really good too! Cheers 🤘🏻😊

[@JimGreenFootwearOfficial]

Great features, Can't beat a handy back pack. Well priced too

[@CarlMurawski]

I agree! It's a total win in my book.

[@markbingamon9351]

Have you done a review on the man pack??? It's rather unique... It has a place for concealed carry and or body armor plate 1 wearing as a backpack... Of course that is just one of its many uses... I purchased a desert sand colored one, thanking the interior would have the same desert sand nylon lining... That is really my only complaint is all their colors contain a black nylon lining... Which makes it difficult locating your stuff when most stuff is tactical black now IE: flashlights... It's a minor complaint but I've noticed you can locate your items a lot easier when the interior is of a lighter color

[@paulcaskey]

Nice looking bag.

[@rabadabadoo491]

Wish we could get this in the UK it looks ideal. Cheers 🍻

[@andygarcia282]

i got the medium pack its the best bag ive ever bought

[@armygreenfj3924]

Just bought this back pack. It should work great with my veto meter bag for service calls.

[@CarlMurawski]

The Veto Pro Pack is my favorite tool bag!

[@armygreenfj3924]

@@CarlMurawski it’s hard to beat the veto. It’s definitely worth the price. I can actually fit all my tools that I normally use in the Veto meter bag.

[@loumanning9474]

Carhart lost me when they quit making their products in the USA. You can find similar products online that are made by American companies using American workers. None of this “ made for the American worker by the Chinese, Vietnamese, whatever worker”. Real shame too, I have a couple flannel shirts by them that are USA made that are 25 years old.

[@brucemurray2520]

Agree. So many very good similar products made here in the USA by our neighbors. Lou, check out Vermont Flannel Co. for great winter shirts.

Carl. face it, you just like having the best stuff. not a sin. I have the same disease.

[@CarlMurawski]

True story my friend!

[@Mr1Musiclover]

The same applies to real estate. Houses are vacant with no toilet paper and clients may need to use it. Also carry hand soap, sanitizer, masks gloves tape measures and more. Still need less tactical looking good for the field and the office. This isn't it. Any suggestions? Loving the Sachel and Page but still not sure on it. Thanks for the work, Carl

[@cowboycody8094]

I might actually use this it's rugged it's good looking it's useful. The other thing I might look into is a rugged leather backpack. However would I really need right now is good rain gear because I am in the southwest and it is monsoon season.

[@warpedone2]

Thanks for filming

[@Querenciatv]

Nice Video! Thanks for sharing with us. Can't wait to see more videos 😍

[@donh1572]

Be aware some Carhartt packs are only 600 denier…the more rugged packs are 1200 denier

[@sea_of_inspiration]

Go for Indian brand named Ramesh Dyeing they have one of the most rugged bagpacks at affordable prices ever. I'm using them from last 12 years.

[@CarlMurawski]

I'll check them out!

[@rpnp2]

I am Tom Bihn bag fan, but that looks like a decent backpack

[@lawrencecruz2588]

The bag you used in the video is the Large correct? I'm looking at a bunch of reviews online but can't seem to find any pictures of the tarmac colored version. I'm looking for netting on both sides but is that only specific to the large model vs the medium?

[@blakedavis2447]

Rugged? No. Quality? It's okay... Lightweight? Yes! Worth it? I like mine. I packed mine too the max once and the seams started to separate, but didn't tear... whew.

[@charlesbronson240]

YESSS I was thinking about buying this

[@Objetivefj]

[@NMcCauley]

Thx for the review. Is it waterproof?

[@manuelrojas9749]

Will this bag fit a couple of 3700 size fishing stowaways???

[@stevenpeltier1376]

I wonder how it would hold up on the sissy bar of a motorcycle?

[@LoganMaclaren]

You realize how poor you are when someone calls a 200 bucks backpack "afordable"... I really need to get a new job.

[@WildHorsesOfCourse]

I bought this bag after watching this review and was extremely disappointed in its small size. This is maybe 50-60% the overall capacity of an Ogio for example. The waist strap is extremely bulky and unable to be removed which is a huge deterrent also. The add on bags are hoaky at best and not something I’d ever use. I returned to Amazon the day I received it. The quality is okish but the size makes it nothing more than a small high school backpack to me. No external pockets for cables or cords, limited main compartment size. I’d recommend this to school aged guys but the huge waste belt bump they aren’t going to use would be a turn off for that use as well.

[@jessicaho19]

How do you like that weatherproof utility case? I have one from Yeti that is pretty much the same, but has velcro straps to attach to the molle on my Yeti cooler bag and I'm looking for something that I can just just grab and go with.

[@CarlMurawski]

So far it’s been great. I use it a lot to toss into other bags as a kind of “on the go” toiletry kit.

[@WhiskeySpruce]

Will you do a video comparing Stormy Kromer vs Filson?

[@CarlMurawski]

Excellent idea!

[@annahenderson1730]

How many colors?

[@markbingamon9351]

That's a good question I will have to check that out I am like many people I like Carhartt that I do not like the standard tan Carhartt color

[@markbingamon9351]

I just clicked on the Amazon link... It comes in dark blue, black oh, and something call tar mark which looks to be Gray in color

Hi Carl! What do you recommend as a lightweight summer boot that's on the cheaper side?

[@SpecJack15]

I have a pair of Bates Cobra boots and they're less than $130, really lightweight and breathable roughout leather-nylon construction.

[@charlesbronson240]

Clark’s desert boot. If you are willing to spend a little extra money though, red wings weekender chukka is great. Jim green has a nice chukka too.

[@SpecJack15]

@@nickmagma7745 Yes, it has a nylon shank in the midsole. And the midsole uses dual-density foam for enhanced foot support, called the Endurance Performance System by Bates. I have worn it for street duty on a 10-hour shift and my feet felt like they were walking on clouds the whole time.

[@josephlinares96]

Is it us made?

[@pmue437]

If you really want a Bag then there is one Company called „Savotta“ and those are 1000 Cordura. Even TT looks B Grade.

[@Legionnaire7777]

And Crib gogh, Warrior assault systems and Blackhawk 👍🏻

[@lemon611ify]

What is TT?

[@halfred8011]

@@lemon611ify Tasmanian tiger

[@halfred8011]

I beg to differ. A lot of Tt bags are made out of 1000d cordura for their laser cut bags. And altho the outside of some of theirs are 500-700D cordura their insides are covered by a 1000D cordura layer to prevent rips. Whilst Savotta only use 1 layer throughout their packs if im correct. So it comes down to taste but to assume tt looks B grade compared to that is just insane...

Ahem. It's ugly. Time to develop a 'relationship' with Filson.

[@CarlMurawski]

Well we're really talking about function first here. I agree that the Filson packs can be much more handsome and I actually own three Filson bags. They're just too expensive to really toss around too much for me.

[@DJ4712DC]

What hype tho?🧐

[@lollshitt]

Just to clarify, is the one in this video review a L (30L) or M (20L) size?
