This is a GREAT quality, heavy duty backpack that has a lot of versatility built-in. It's extremely comfortable thanks to the wide, padded waste belt. I can easily carry this pack, at 30+ lbs, despite my lower back spinal fusions. The light but strong frame is perfect. 60L is enough for me to carry everything I need for long duration hikes. It's slightly heavier (5.7 lbs) than UL packs, but it's much heavier duty and a fraction of the others' prices. I've dealt with this company's customer service, on an unrelated issues, and they immediately corrected the situation despite it being my fault. Outstanding!

This was the very first item I ever got from 5.11, as a present for my birthday 2 years ago when I seriously needed to upgrade my pack system (for my back health). Since getting this bag, I have SWORN by 5.11 gear, and I've easily spent over 2k on gear in the past 2 years.But about this pack, its incredibly versatile.

I actually tend to run a MOAB 6 or 8 on the back side using the tier system, so I can extend the carrying capacity as well as have an easily detachable day pack for shorter hikes if I camp. I have the pack normally set up to hold LITERALLY everything that I need for myself to go backpack-camping out in the backcountry for 3 days (That includes shelter, clothes, food, cookware/stove, sleeping gear, and all other small luxuries that I feel like stuffing in there) easily. I know its meant to be able to last you 100 hours which is a little over a 4 days, and I think this pack definitely could do that easily if you sacrificed a few non-essential luxuries.One thing I do have a critique on would be that it would be better to have the water bladder storage sleeve be housed in a different compartment than the main one, seeing as the pressure from all of the stuff and cinching the tensioning straps down probably adds a ton of pressure on those easy-to-bust bladders. I did already have a cheap one bust on me inside the pack, luckily because the materials of the pack are so thick and water-resistant the water stayed contained within the one compartment. I since upgraded my bladder to the 5.11 Wide 3L bladder and have not had any issues since, but just something to be aware of.Only one of the zippers has given me any grief, just gets a little hung up from time to time. All the other zippers are smooth and sturdy. The hip belt actually has metal bands running through the fabric, and this amount of support allows you to really tighten that belt down and transfer the load from the shoulders to the waist. I can easily wear this pack for 4+ hours through many miles and my legs are the only things that are badly sore by the end.I'm glad I got this product for my birthday, because A. I'm still getting so much good use out of it, and B. I now own a ton of quality products from 5.11 that I probably would never have otherwise!

I no longer have this pack. I bought it the year it came out. My complaint then was no multicam. I am in the market for another one since I lost the first one in a house fire, June 2021. Now I'm experiencing the same complaint. I absolutely love these bags so it won't keep me from purchasing another. I would like to own one of each color. I use these packs as camping, rucking, traveling and other use bags. I used to own all of the RUSH series bags in multicam. Unfortunately I need to replace those as well. If you're on the fence about buying one, just do it. You won't regret it.

This is a great backpack. I am 100% civilian, not LE or Mil, but l don't like single-compartment bags, where you must dump everything in and rummage around to find it later. I love the flexibility of this modular design. I have not used the bag on a trip, but it looks promising. The only negative is the belt strap buckle is too tiny for my liking. I would also prefer a few more civilian color schemes that are less. Tactical, but I realize civilian users are not the target customer base, so OD was ok by me.
Pros: This bag right here is the last bag I will ever need, it's versatile, durable, and does everything I need it to do with attachments. It's nearly indestructible, comfortable, reasonably priced, limitlessly expandable and I almost could not be more satisfied with a pack. This will be not only be my bugout bag but my INCH bag as well. It qualifies for a bag ready to last until the hot hot summer of 2089 through daily use and abuse and nuclear wars aplenty.Cons (sort of): it takes a little bit of time for the adjustment straps to kind of break in and not be so stiff and hard to slide and adjust, but overtime they get really slick and lock super well. A little uncomfortable when I first put it on, but it was new and still starchy and fresh out of the package.

A little uncomfortable when I first put it on, but it was new and still starchy and fresh out of the package. And the bag took a little time for my back and the bag to get used to each other for it to become a comfortable bag that I don't feel on my back when wearing. I have a slight scoliosis as well and for this bag to do its job well of alligning the spine is a must have, I believe, for anyone looking for a lifetime packOther thoughts: I wish this bag had the full bodied 1050D nylon like the rush 72 has, but I at the same time understand for the means of weight reduction. Still, I have tried to see if I could find any weak points in the bag and couldn't, and see this bag lasting a lifetime or two.
It's good but not great. It has a large main compartment, and I like the divider that gives you lower and upper sections, but it doesn't have the organizational pouches and pockets that the RUSH 72 does. It also should have more MOLLE webbing in several places where you could have allowed the attachment of extra pouches. It's good, but it could and should have been a lot better for the price. It only gives you 5 more liters of volume and doesn't include many of the features that make the 72 so customizable and great. To pricey for something that doesn't give as much as the smaller packs. Do better guys.
I give the Rush100 five stars for comfort and adjustability. I've never worn a more comfortable large pack in the 30-some years I've been camping and backpacking.I give its overall size, volume, accessibility, etc. three stars because it is a bit small for my needs, and nothing about it sets it apart from any other pack of similar quality, size, and design, although I found the "locking quick release buckles” to be a royal pain in the neck. I replaced them with regular buckles after my first trip.The hip belt has lots of room for gear, bags, tools, etc., and it is easily detachable. It's very convenient for me to be able to detach the belt from the pack and wear it with suspenders as a sort of tool belt while I work on trail maintenance, shelter building, trap ... MoreI give the Rush100 five stars for comfort and adjustability.

It's very convenient for me to be able to detach the belt from the pack and wear it with suspenders as a sort of tool belt while I work on trail maintenance, shelter building, trap setting, fishing, etc.I like the belt so much that I thought I’d buy a couple more and build them out for different types of trips so I don’t have to spend as much time reconfiguring my load out between trips. After a bunch of emails back and forth with 5.11 customer support, I was finally told that I can’t get another belt. They pointed me to the Rush belt kit, which I don’t think is compatible with the Rush100, and even if it can be made to work, it isn’t what I need. I need a full belt, just like the one that came with the pack. I’d happily pay $30 dollars apiece for them.But apparently, I can’t get one. If I hadn’t exceeded my Amazon return window, I’d return the pack to 5.11 because it will be useless to me if the hip belt gets lost or heavily damaged (and I can’t get a replacement). I’ve already talked four friends out of buying this pack due to a lack of replacement parts. It’s a shame, because the pack is very good, otherwise.
I have a lot of praise, one point of constructive criticism, and a question for the designers of the RUSH100. I'll start with the good.This pack is exactly what I was looking for: a slightly scaled down, upgraded version of my Army-issued rucksack. All of its features strongly correlate with the other pack's design, so I will be reviewing this pack against the other. 1 - The removable belt is easily my favorite feature, because I never used it on my MOLLE II rucksack, but removing it wasn't an option. The removable belt itself is a viable replacement for the battle belt I currently use, and will probably take its place in the near future. 2 - The exchangeable volume lower compartment is another improvement over the other's. It fit both my sleep system and a few ... MoreI have a lot of praise, one point of constructive criticism, and a question for the designers of the RUSH100.

The removable belt itself is a viable replacement for the battle belt I currently use, and will probably take its place in the near future. 2 - The exchangeable volume lower compartment is another improvement over the other's. It fit both my sleep system and a few changes of clothes without the other pack's nuisance of unzipping the divider, which doesn't even completely segregate the compartments. 3 - The ease of adjustability for the shoulder straps and the inclusion of two pairs of load lifter attachments puts the other pack to shame, no elaboration required. 4 - Features of the RUSH100 that the Army-issued rucksack doesn't have. A dedicated hydration bladder pouch is obviously preferable to clipping your Camelbak onto the outside of your ruck. The admin pouch fit my rifle range bureaucracy binder and it also has enough webbing on the outside to attach my excavation tool where it normally goes. The lashing straps on the bottom are fully functional alone, instead of depending on being buckled to the MOLLE II's top flap, which leads me to the bad of the RUSH100.The RUSH100's side pouches are the only feature that is worse than the Army-issued rucksack and its equivalent sustainment pouches. Both suffer from waste of space where webbing should be placed underneath. 5.11's side pouches are secured underneath by the main compartment's compression straps, whereas the Army's sustainment pouches are weaved on, and have the superior option of running the field pack's compression pouches over them. Furthermore, removing the 5.11 side pouches proved a lengthy nuisance, where I ultimately had to simply cut off the compression straps' sewn endings because they won't fit through the autolock no-slip buckles. Fortunately, the buckles are so effective as to work perfectly fine with endless straps.Finally, with the side pouches removed on my RUSH100, I have to ask: what is the purpose of the "dual side pass through panels"?
I used this pack on a 12 day Philmont trek with my kids (~90 miles of hiking). The pack had "just enough" space for my tent/bag/clothes/food/etc - although I had to add a first aid kit, water bottle holder, and accessory pack to the exterior (easy with Molle). Although not the lightest pack, the many pockets and compartments made organization easy, and the construction quality proved solid. My main issue was with the hip-belt. I am rather slim, and I found that the hip belt would constantly slip down my pelvis putting almost all the weight on my shoulders (despite constant belt tightening - made worse when pack weight was over 45lbs). I have owned several other backpacks from other manufacturers, and this pack simply "rode" worse on my pelvis.

The belt is a rather "simple" design compared to the more "shaped" belt designs you would find on something like an Osprey pack. Quality pack with nice features, but the belt design was marginal when going the distance with weight.
The two side pouches sit too high and there is no molle included to be able to move them lower. Makes the pack top heavier. Essentially the inside of the bag is this cavernous stuff sack for camping gear. It's not ideal for packing specialized things like a fire kit or water purification pack, etc. The waist belt is excellent and so are the shoulder straps. The outer back of the pack doesn't have enough molle. When it's unzipped, the worst thing is you cannot effectively organize smaller items. There is no molle webbing. In fact it looks like a place to store magazines. Look at the strong points of the Rush 72 and integrate them into this bag.as expensive as it was, I was overall disappointed. Could your team design some disaster preparedness bags based on the rush ... MoreThe two side pouches sit too high and there is no molle included to be able to move them lower.

Could your team design some disaster preparedness bags based on the rush system but with places to safely pack a pro gas mask kit or water safety gear without taking up space in the bag? Something revolutionary...people are buying these bags mainly for the bugout aspect.
