At first glance, the Brandit Cooper 65 l seems to be a sturdy backpack with a large capacity. In practice, however, using it is very uncomfortable. The straps are too wide and sewn much too close together. Because of this, they constantly press on the neck, and the shoulder straps put a heavy strain on the shoulders and cause pain. Due to this design, a person also walks more hunched over to reduce the discomfort, which over time also leads to back pain.
Brandit US Cooper XL Backpack 65 l - Flecktarn
A spacious tactical backpack offering a 65-liter capacity. Constructed from robust, tear-resistant polyester and featuring an inner PVC coating for enhanced moisture protection. Ideal for tactical and survival situations as well as for everyday carry. Designed with a dual-compartment layout and multiple pockets, including a dedicated pocket for hydration system integration, ensuring organized and efficient gear storage.
Two compartments, pocket for hydration system
For transporting essential gear, the backpack features 2 compartments—a spacious main compartment and a secondary one—both outfitted with organizers and secured with zippers. The zippers enable deep access, making it easier to reach stored items. 2 front pockets provide space for additional accessories. The larger, lower pocket comes with an organizer for small essentials. A concealed pocket on the back, fastened with Velcro, is intended for a hydration system.
Carrying system with chest and hip strap
The carrying system is equipped with wide and adjustable straps, a hip belt, and a chest strap, enabling optimal weight distribution during movement in challenging environments. Both the straps and the back panel feature foam padding covered with mesh, ensuring enhanced comfort and improved air circulation while carrying.
MOLLE/PALS system, compression straps, D-rings
On the front panel and sides of the backpack, sturdy webbing has been sewn on, allowing for the attachment of gear via the MOLLE/PALS system. Outfitted with compression straps, the backpack also enables users to secure additional items like a sleeping bag or sleeping mat. A practical carry handle is placed at the top. The shoulder straps feature D-rings designed for the attachment of small, easily accessible equipment.

Flecktarn Camouflage
Flecktarn is a renowned German military camouflage pattern, officially adopted by the Bundeswehr in 1990. Characterized by small, irregularly shaped spots in five distinctive colors—dark green, olive, brown, black, and beige—Flecktarn utilizes a distribution of numerous dots and softened edges to effectively break up the wearer’s outline in wooded environments, scrublands, and amidst forest undergrowth. Developed to perform optimally in European climates, particularly within the temperate zone, Flecktarn continues to serve as a standard issue pattern for the German armed forces, various military branches, and police units. Outstanding concealment capabilities have inspired a range of adaptations and localized versions throughout other nations.

Review summary
The Brandit US Cooper XL 65 l backpack is highly rated by users for its large capacity, durable materials, and functional design. Customers praise the comfortable carrying system, numerous compartments, and the ability to organize gear for long trips and daily use. The backpack serves well as an alternative to a suitcase and is ideal for multi-day outings. Its practical Molle system, wear-resistant, water-repellent fabric, and sturdy build are standout features. Wide straps, a functional hip belt, spacious pockets, and a well-thought-out compartment layout are frequently mentioned as advantages. Some users note that the backpack’s length may be excessive for shorter individuals, the hip belt is less robust, there is no frame, and heavy loads might stress some seams and buckles. The Coyote color may differ from online images. While not the best choice for extended treks with heavy loads, the backpack is excellent for trips with a nearby base or lighter terrain. Overall, it enjoys positive reviews as a durable, spacious, and well-priced option.

I am a bit disappointed with this backpack — by the second use, the main strap was close to tearing, and the loose straps come undone on their own. The backpack handles weight distribution poorly; after both trips, I had severe strain in my neck, shoulders, and back with loads of 15 and 20 kilograms. I understand that a lower price may mean poorer build quality, but it is frustrating that a 65-liter backpack cannot cope with a moderate load. On the plus side, it is worth noting the well-placed pockets and 6 additional loose straps.

The backpack is very attractive, large, and spacious. I like the possibility of expanding it, and after proper adjustment, which is very intuitive, it fits very well on the back. The product offers great possibilities for organizing space, and the well-thought-out compartment layout allows for any arrangement and sorting of items.
-
The backpack has a large capacity, and its spacious compartment opens similarly to a wheeled suitcase. It is equipped with rain protection. The “Pantera” camouflage matches well with the equipment of the land forces.
-
This is a very spacious and sensibly designed backpack. With a capacity of 65 litres, it becomes quite heavy once packed. To protect it from rain, I bought a separate Highlander rain cover, which covers the entire backpack.
-
Everything is great, I am very satisfied. The product looks good, has a fantastic color, matches the description, the delivery was fast, and the quality is truly excellent. I would order again without hesitation. 100 points!
-
The bag is very spacious and solidly made. At this price, it is hard to find anything better. Although the materials and finish are not top-tier, objectively speaking, this backpack definitely deserves to be bought.
-
The backpack has a very large capacity, it easily fits a lot of things, equipment, and clothes for several days, but carrying it is not very comfortable. Do I recommend it? For long hiking trips, it is probably not suitable, but if you are planning a car camping trip or want to leave the backpack at the base after a short walk, it can be very useful.

The Brandit US Cooper XL 65L backpack in wz.93 Pantera PL Woodland is a larger version of the 40L backpack by the same company. Compared to the smaller one, it probably won't be as comfortable. I haven't taken it on a long hike yet, but the first thing that stands out and initially raises concerns is that the straps don't seem very comfortable. The backpack is huge, and whereas with the smaller one even a small tent had to be strapped on, here it will easily fit in the large pocket together with a sleeping bag and other items. It probably won't be suitable for long marches. But for carrying larger equipment over shorter distances, it should be fine.
-
The backpack is excellent in terms of price to quality ratio. Well made and spacious. Easily fits a sleeping bag, mat, and other necessary items. The straps are comfortable. I bought it for my daughter for outdoor activities. She is very satisfied. I recommend it.

This backpack works perfectly for traveling, trips, and when you need to carry a lot of things. The 65-liter capacity is more than enough – you can easily fit clothing, a sleeping bag, a first aid kit, and other needed items, with space to spare. The material is strong, the entire backpack looks solid, and the zippers and stitches are well-made. The shoulder straps are comfortable, and the hip belt makes it easier to carry heavy loads for a long time. The MOLLE strap system allows you to attach extra equipment or pockets. The olive color is practical and doesn’t get dirty easily. The downside may be the size – for city use or short trips, the backpack may seem too large and heavy.
-
The backpack is solidly made, much bigger than it seems. It really fits everything. If someone is looking for a really big backpack, this is a great choice. A big plus for the arrangement of smaller compartments for small items. It covers the entire back for a height of 186 cm but there is no shortage of space inside.
-
Well-made backpack. Spacious and comfortable. Lots of useful pockets. Comfortable carrying system. Attractive price, and the shipment arrived the next day. I recommend it.
-
It lasted 2 years of use before the harness seams came apart, while the inner waterproof lining held up for half a year and then crumbled into tiny pieces; the first buckle broke in the first month, the last one before the end of the first year; after 2 years it's beyond repair; time to try another brand.
-
This backpack is very spacious and has plenty of different pockets. It can fit everything you need for a Sunday match, such as a tactical "Plate Carrier" vest, helmets, and even a small replica submachine gun (my P90 fits perfectly in the main compartment, without the suppressor). Thanks to this, you can go to the match without any additional bags. I recommend it.
