Hi guys,
i was just having this idea... i dont know if anyone of you can get anything out of this or if the idea is just whack but here we go:
do you know the feeling that you have a bunch of backpacks / rucksacks but none of it are fitting your exact personal preferances and likes (such as number of internal pockets, padding, weight, aso.)? Good! I have that feeling all the time and i just wanted to start this thread so that people can discuss what theire "dream pack" should have and maybe someone here knows a pack that fits those wishes just perfect! I'll just go ahead and start with my "dream backpack".
Ok for me.. it should be more of a daypack kind of pack with 30 to 50 liters capacity. The looks of it should be more on the civilian side (so no molle / pals webbing across the whole freaking pack). Color should be on the dark side (black / dark grey). The shoulder straps should be well padded so it won't be awkward to wear if fully loaded out to the seems. Although i said no molle, i'd like it to have some kind of webbing / bungy strap on the shoulder straps (cause i like to carry my multi tool (Victorinox Spirit) or my flashlight (JETbeam BC10) in a molle holster of some sort (maxpedition single sheath or something like that) on the shoulder straps. There should be a waiststrap that is fully removable. I'd rather not have a chest strap.
Pockets:
Side pocket for fitting a 32 oz / 1 Lit nalgene bottle in.
Front pocket with internal sleaves and pockets to organize stuff (Pen sleaves, credit card sleaves).
1 big main compartement
1 smaller sized compartement (for having the capability to separate something from the main compartement) (I personally like a pocket like this for carrying some kind of organizer pocket with my EDC and some items i just use all the time (Maxpedition EDC pocket organizer). So i can just throw it in the pack that i'm currently using.
Optional Gadgets:
I would really appreaciate a flexible raincover that comes out of the bottom of the pack.
Plus some D rings on the bottom to carry a sleeping bag / tent / sleeping pad there.
So ... maybe someone knows a pack that fits MY personal needs just perfect.
Otherwise feel free to just discribe your own dream pack ... maybe someone can help you
Please excuse any gramatic / spelling / writing errors that i might have made, since english isn't my mother language
Have a great day
