Vertx Ready Pack 2.0: i wasn't ready...

Thank you for watching.. In this video I share with you the Vertx Ready Pack 2.0. This pack is great. The Ready Pack 2.0 is a year old and I am just getting my hands on it. This pack represents Vertx's dedication to producing the best EDC pack on the market. This pack checks a lot of boxes. I am super critical of EDC packs and I only had a couple of small complaints. In short, if your looking for a gray-man CCW/EDC pack this might be the one.

Intros are always so creative. I love them!

[@lukeoxner]

George, love your reviews and your perspective on these bags. Keep up the great work!

[@87niner]

Great review as always, sir! I’m not a huge Vertx fan but I always love hearing your breakdowns. You obviously know your stuff!

[@rainbosprinkles6548]

I was looking for vertx gear reviews. You do a great job. Thanks.

[@ThatOneDudeNick]

I have the original Ready Pack and Gamut and I like them a lot. I've abused the Ready Pack it a lot. I use it for day hikes, slid it on ground and rocks, used as a pillow, let it bake in the desert sun in the back of my truck, got it wet, etc. I like that it's not to visually loud. Being able to stick a velcro holster in there with the quick access is nice. I usually carry on body, but when hiking i like to just throw it in the bag for comfort.

[@imaninjafoo4626]

Just found your channel looking for reviews on this bag. Good stuff and thanks for a pretty good complete review of this bag.

[@dae-youngkang3532]

Been waiting for your review of this pack for a while!

[@christophergarcia225]

You make the best bag videos dude. Thank you!

[@ohmyboop3172]

Awesome review, was in the market for a new backpack and your review answered all my questions. Will definitely be picking this up! Cheers

[@SuperEddie0228]

Such a great review. Great job brother. I truly enjoy your reviews thank you

[@erikk.5202]

As always George, a great review sir! I have had this EDC pack for about two months and I love it! And, I got mine for a steal on Ebay. Under $100. No lie. Interesting side note, the Seller I bought it from no longer has an account. He was selling the Gamut and Ready 2.0 for well under MSRP. My nephew had the original Ready Pack and he beat that bag up and took it all around the world and it held up very well. He eventually sold it to my brother who uses it daily now.

[@Tony-jn7nz]

Outstanding review. Thank you

[@JimAlaska49]

Always great content George!

Great review man. Thank you.

Once again, awesome review!!

[@Tygerfalcon]

Your reviews are great! I was looking for an EDC backpack that could be used for college and for work. Your videos helped me decide on the Ready Pack based upon price range and features. Thank you!

[@TexasBuyer2001]

Nice video, especially the intro. I can't wait for your review of the Vertx Ready Pack 3.0.

[@kevans2337]

Love your openings George ! I ordered a small greenroom backpack that I'm still waiting for... so excited ☺. In the meantime I'm watching bag reviews.

[@scottnichols4669]

I freakin love how you run this channel! Gear snob to a point, but realistic about what people are gonna do with it. Spending a bunch of a money is cool if you have it, but trying to stretch your dollar is how most folks shop. I don't need an expensive knife either. I like quality, and I like inexpensive. I'm looking at this bag as an edc bag for everything I usually carry in my pockets, plus as an active shooter bag. Armor, medical, and spare mags. My favorite thing about this bag is that if you front load it, you can approximate a plate carrier in a bad situation and have some protection. Great review! Subbed!

[@blazability3469]

omg another GREAT video! love your videos please keep them coming!

[@GeorgeDEFINED]

More to come!

[@Chris-vt4jg]

Another great video George. Looking forward to the next.

[@GeorgeDEFINED]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@electricmayhem147]

Great video! Definitely getting that bag. Really like ur tablet cover

[@MrHomolka]

I've had the "1.0" and 2.0 for a while now. They really are great quality and are very comfortable even when loaded out. My only gripe is the bottle holders are a little low and tight and my blender bottles struggle to fit properly.

[@PRL1982]

Thanks for the review. I was just looking at this bag today. I’m needing to upgrade my edc bag that I’ve been using for the last two years. I like that it’s not tactical looking and wouldn’t draw attention.

[@blackbird2056]

George, just found your channel. Man the reviews are on point ! I appreciate I am not the only one who has an addiction to bags lol. Keep up the Great content.

[@tj3945]

Nice review This is the best bag I ever purchased

[@mudhound0530]

Great content keep up the good work

[@MSKH1970]

got 1 of these coming in for sure.

[@0x0221]

As always, your review is thorough and honest. I also love the lanyard idea on the Leatherman. Very disappointing about the laptop sleeve and lack of a separate tablet sleeve. That's a deal breaker for me right there.

[@Moudmenn]

hey georges love ur vids, is this made in usa? amazon days so but no info on website, is there a label inside ?

[@jcpalermo2576]

This pack is super versatile and I really like that. Working in a professional setting, it's important for me that I can use my different bags without looking like I just came in from the trail, or like I'm planning on leading a tactical force team through the rain forest. Great find here George and great review!!

[@kcherrick2627]

Vertx is my favorite bag company. Also their delta stretch pants and the jeans they make are the best pants made. Like jeans or pant that u can wear like sweats. So comfy. Yet tough and cool. With Hella pockets! Great video bru!!

[@MaverickTangent]

Excellent video, dude!

[@piche090391]

love this pack, only down side to it, it is the water bottle pockets, I carry a hydryflask for water and another one for coffee. they rub the things inside the mail bag and take away cubic internal space. I use it for school only and I wish it were a full clap, and more space on it. I carry my Mac Pro, iPad, chargers, stethoscope, lab coat, a few pens and a notepad. Sometimes extra pair of shoes, short story I don't pack a lot and the bag always looks pretty full that's why I don't give it a 10/10. great review George, like always

[@cruzcartagena7750]

Nice video Brother. Great bag too.

[@MultiLoganM]

I like the ccw pouch in the back even though I don't keep a gun in there. I usually keep a packable rain jacket and some first aid stuff in mine. Stuff I want to get quickly but am not taking in and out often.

[@TKLewis904]

I really like this backpack. For me it would be the perfect bank fishing pack. Great review. I have a vertx range bag so it’s a company I already trust.

[@markytams86]

Nice. I have this pack and love it. Might switch back to using it again.

[@GeorgeDEFINED]

You should!

[@Sn-tk8rq]

I agree 100%. A top quick access compartment is a must. When it's stuffed under the seat of an airplane and you need to get to your wallet or battery, its a need. I like the 'high vis' color. Its has good contrast without the retina burn of some others and not as eye catching to others. The front admin pouch is good. I'll store my 10k mah battery, pens, boarding pass and some altoids with some wet wipes/hand sanitizer. If it had a top compartment, i'll throw the face mask in it. It is a good looking back but missing a wow factor. Thanks George!

[@Riverdm]

Really enjoy your videos

[@agvaquero8361]

love my ready pack so far. I added another admin pack into the central compartment, which is double sided for most of my smaller items.

[@KP-rz3gk]

I don’t think you should buy a bag without giving George a crack at it first. Unique but real-world useful opinion about what a bag should and could do. And he isn’t any bag makers homey either, he speaks truth. Thanks George.

[@readyok-]

Suggested video, maybe cause I'm ready? Ok! lol. Subbed, love the intro, good personality, lots of great info.

[@GeorgeDEFINED]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@SEAKPhotog]

Nice review, thanks!👍 Subbed. So what are your favorite top 5 packs? I'm looking for an EDC CCW pack. This looks pretty terrific. Don't need it to carry much really. I've tried sling bags but hate 'em so gonna have to go with a backpack I think. Thanks again for your review.

[@joeycutup4958]

In the main compartment at the bottom it is the material that you can put Velcro on?

[@catchacoolbreeze]

George DEFINDED does it again! Fun review. I have and love this pack. I just wish it was bigger. It really doesn't carry a lot of stuff. Still looking for that best pack. This is close though.

[@Chermzz]

I just want to thank you for reviewing backpacks and also that I dislike you cause you make me want to buy all these backpacks haha My other half says I have to much, but she’s wrong !! You can never have to much backpacks ! Keep up the good work man !

[@theforgedone]

The passthrough for the back panel has another purpose, too. Add one of those armor plates, put your arm through the back panel, now you have a shield.

Vertx is King in the carry community. You should review all their bags. Thanks for the review. Good stuff. Keep it coming. Carry/Coffee/Combatives.

[@MrHomolka]

I use the that large internal Velcro patch for a Vertx pouch. I think its 5x7 and that's my quick access!! Works really well actually

[@qwerty1293]

Dude! liked and subscribed purely for the intro!

[@BrandonFritz]

A good idea to give your laptop a buffer space from the bottom of the pack would be to get a piece of dense foam about an inch thick and cut it to the length of the bottom of the bag. It looks like you have a few inches of height to play with so an inch should be fine, maybe even wrap the foam in duct tape. Great video! if you wanna give the bag away, ill do a video of me making a foam insert and show it loaded up. :-))) Keep up the good media! The biggie smalls at the end was a must!

[@oldminer5387]

Great review George, thank you. Do you have a list of your top 5 packs somewhere?

[@GeorgeDEFINED]

1. Alpha One Niner Evade 1.5 Full 2. Vanquest IBEX 26 3. Mystery Ranch 2 DAP 4. GO RUCK GR1 5. Greenroom 136 Rainmaker

[@Jasper0o0]

Great review, as usual! Thank you. Nice grey man pack. Just wondering if you’re planning to review the new Maxpedition TT26 pack? I was holding out for this pack for a long time, but now that it’s out, it looks kinda disappointing to me. I like the design, but some features fall short. It would be great to see your take on it. I’m a relatively new subscriber, & really enjoy your reviews. Perfection is so hard to find in a pack.

[@GeorgeDEFINED]

Thanks for the suggestion.. Never seen that one before..

[@Jasper0o0]

[@patrickphanthanusorn8803]

George! Love your personality and vids. And those bloopers! Fantastic. I have the vertex checkpoint and am enjoying it. Still dialing in how I like to carry it but I feel a sense of pride when I walk with it. I think you get it being a bag geek too. Anyhow my question for you is what are your top 5? I've seen a couple of videos where you mention the list but I don't recall hearing the list. Is there a video I missed about them? Or could you do one and explain what makes them your top picks?

[@GeorgeDEFINED]

@@GeorgeDEFINED thanks for answering the fan base! I just watched each of those videos. The alpha one niner is pretty sweet. Also almost bought a greenroom myself. I've customized do many but never hit that purchase button. I'm not a fan of the other three though. Too tactical looking for my taste. But you did a great job walking us through the bottom to the top. Thanl you!

[@johnthompson6313]

I think my only two things are what you said: 1. Quick access pouch 2. Laptop sleeve Do you know of a quick stick laptop pouch to stick in rear cow comp? That would definitely solve my laptop issue for this and the gamut

[@javierlockwood3251]

The capacity of this bag is 20 or 25L?

[@jonathansevert8400]

Just purchased it after your reviews for the alpha evade, gamut and this pack. Looking forward to it. Might order the gamut as well and compare. Awesome channel. You deserve some kick back from these companies. Have you reviewed, or considered reviewing, the blue force gear tracer edc pack?

[@aaroncrouch8776]

Hey George I'm having hard time deciding between this or the camelbak urban assault. I have both already lol.

[@RespectTheChemistry]

You can get them even cheaper if you find discount codes. There are a number of them on youtube that give 25% off. Which would be around 125ish before taxes. Which REALLY makes them attractive options for EDC.

[@WingMan1964]

I looked at this bag yesterday in a store and found it to be heavy. I also found that the CCW compartment is no very fast to access when wearing the bag unlike their sling bag with the same feature. I ended up buying the North Face Surge and I am not totally happy with it for my EDC needs. My 511 MOAB 10 16 liter is a much more durable bag and holds items in place better than the Surge. I just can’t fit everything in it very well. I have found on nearly all bags that when you put things in one compartment it takes away storage space from other compartments. I believe each bag has its advantages for certain situations but there is no perfect EDC bag.

[@pkumarvlogs8470]

Nice video

[@rmack4918]

There’s a perfect place for your tablet in front of the laptop pocket.

[@GeniusUnleashed]

You're showing some serious shoulder tension (shoulders re hunched forward) with the pack on. The easiest way of alleviating this is by connected the sternum strap and tightening it up. This pulls the pressure off your shoulders and distributes it in a safer way that allows your shoulders to naturally rest and not constantly straining forward to keep your pack up.

In your opinion which is better for edc the Gamut 2.0 or Ready Pack 2.0? Keep in mind I don’t carry a laptop. Just a pistol and stuff I would need on a daily basis. I can’t make up my mind between to two, HELP me lol. Thanks for the vids man, you doing a great job!

I say the same thing, looks great, but missing something. Maybe if it was at 100 fazools it makes the list.

Yeah! I got mine last week, same color. Maybe 25 L would have been the sweet spot. I got it for EDC and office use. I like the pals webbimg pocket for a pouch of hygine and corona essentials, you can also attach a dog poop bag holder to the daisy chains and use during this crazy time. Its a great sturdy backpack

[@danielduron6131]

So what would your top 5 edc packs be

Alpha One Niner Evade 1.5 Full, Vanquest IBEX 26, Mystery Ranch 2 Day Assault, Go Ruck GR1 and Greenroom136 Rainmaker my personal spoiled backpacker reviewer pick is the Mystery Ranch 3 Day Assault

[@damonharrington2948]

I do not think that is a luggage pass through. This Vertx bag and others is made to put in a Premier Body Armor insert. And that luggage pass through is really for your arm to convert the pack to a protective shield in an active shooter situation.
