Very well-made backpack, great materials, truly world-class workmanship, design, and materials. Very thoughtfully designed. The only drawback is that it seems smaller than 40 liters to me, but that might just be an impression. Also, attaching the hip belt is a bit complicated, but after removing the Velcro you can detach the buckle, and then it's all much easier.

Patrol backpack offering a 40-liter capacity, constructed from durable, abrasion-resistant 500D Cordura material.
Laser-cut MOLLE attachment system is integrated on both the front panel and side walls, providing options for mounting extra pouches or accessories such as a first aid kit. Compression straps are included, which can also double as attachment points for additional equipment like a sleeping bag or mat.
A top flap with a YKK zipper secures the backpack. The main compartment features a lining of soft velour in certain areas. Inside, a modular system compatible with MOLLE/PALS is present, enabling versatile customization and converting the pack for medical or assault roles.
Two pockets can be found on the top of the flap, one lined with velour. Additional open side pockets are designed to carry water bottles or other spare gear.
Ergonomically contoured and adjustable shoulder straps, a chest strap, and a wide hip belt with a WooJin buckle make up the carrying system.
Front panel zippers accommodate SPITFIRE panels, further expanding the backpack’s customization capabilities.
A velcro panel on the front allows for the attachment of patches, emblems, or Morale Patches.

A professional backpack for many uses, in a universal 40L size. Ideal as a 3-day pack, for up to 72h of activities. Made from high-quality materials, at a level that users of the Direct Action brand don't need to be introduced to. Features the possibility of classic top opening as well as fully unzipping the backpack. Laser-cut PALs and AVS system zippers for attaching MOLLE system accessories and dedicated panels, allowing for backpack expansion and compatibility with the plate carrier. Detachable hip belt, which can serve as a tactical belt, contoured shoulder straps, and removable comfort pads. Additional pockets and compatibility with hydration systems. Quick-release capability. Side pockets for bottles. Professional equipment for demanding users. That's the theory—let's see how it holds up in longer practical use. Time will tell, but the design and workmanship can be recommended blindly!

I gave it away. The backpack is very specialized. Very well sewn, the zippers work brilliantly. Heavy. Sturdy. Since it is too specialized for me (it does not stand on the ground when you set it down, it is narrow, tall, and too heavy for 40 liters). You can attach Direct Action panels to it – like 2 pockets. It all looks great. It's a shame it didn't suit my amateur needs as the quality is excellent. And the brand... :) I think it will suit people who: - need a narrow, tall backpack (you can sit in a car with it – it doesn't take as much space as a regular backpack) - want to lay it flat on the ground/shooting bench, it opens like a suitcase - want very good gear (durable) for very tough and long-term outdoor stays. I give the maximum score for quality. Remember, this is specialist gear. Not for everyone.
