Our Assault Pack-style rucksack is very affordable but tougher and more practical than most similarly priced packs. It is a great urban rucksack: compact but with enough compartments and expands a lot with extra pouches. If you have a lot of stuff that has to be accessed all the time, this is the thing for you.

• 20-liter (1220 cu in) day pack
• Loads of external attachment possibilities
• Goes as hand luggage when flying
• Not NIR-compliant, designed for civilian use

Compact daypack with versatile compartments

The pack has a big main compartment with two smaller compartments inside. The main compartment is zippered all around, so you can quickly find what you need, even from a fully packed rucksack. The bigger one of the two smaller compartments fits an iPad, and the smaller zippered one holds all the small things you carry with you. 

On the inside, you can also find a c. 40 cm (16") high hydration bladder pouch (hydration bladder not included). The Source WXP 2-liter reservoir fits very well in it.  The 3-liter model is OK if you don't fill it to the brim.

There are also two outer pockets. The upper one has a loop surface for patches.

In the latest batch, we updated the zipper pullers to silent cords. There can still be some of the old stock left, so don't be surprised if you get one with jingling metal pullers. If the noise bothers you, you can snip them off with side cutters and use just the cord and polymer stopper, or make your own. Check out this article on how to do it.

Lots of attachment options for extra gear

The pack is covered with PALS webbing on the front and sides. This allows you to expand the carrying capacity with various MOLLE pouches and other gear.

Very comfortable to carry

The shoulder straps are very well-padded and contoured, and they can be easily adjusted. The waist strap has a quick-release buckle. If you don't need the waist strap, it's easily removed. 

The side that presses on your back is well padded and ventilated, making the pack comfortable to carry for long distances.

Good compression straps, two on each side and two on the underside - this thing can be compressed to the size of a hydration pack. The side compression straps have quick releases, which is very handy. The straps also double as an easy way to strap stuff onto the pack - strapping your jacket onto the pack when moving indoors has never been easier.
