I use this backpack every day, I have carried a lot of heavy things in it and after two years of use there is practically no sign of wear. This backpack is suitable for everything and I recommend it to everyone who needs a large, durable backpack. It's great for everyday use thanks to the organized front pocket, but its capacity and expandability also make it perfect for trips and travels. The shoulder straps and handle are excellent — you can carry a lot and for a long time without getting tired. The only minor drawback is that the hook-and-loop fastener on the chest strap is too strong and can damage the straps. (I covered it with tape so it doesn't fray or tear my straps.) I would definitely buy it again. 9/10

Pentagon Epos Backpack 40 l - RAL7013
Tactical backpack offering a 40-liter capacity in RAL7013 color, well-suited for daily use and short excursions into the field. Constructed from robust nylon 500D, the backpack features a main compartment equipped with a velcro panel and four pockets for efficient gear organization. Ergonomically designed shoulder straps together with a ventilated back panel ensure enhanced comfort during wear. The integrated MOLLE/PALS system provides the option to attach extra pouches or modules.
500D nylon
Constructed from 500D nylon, the model offers excellent resistance against abrasions and mechanical wear. The durable fiber structure ensures reliable performance even under intensive field conditions. The fabric is easy to maintain, repels dirt effectively, and stands up to varying weather, which significantly contributes to the backpack's long-lasting durability.
main compartment and pockets
The primary compartment is secured with a two-way YKK zipper and comes fully lined with a velcro panel, enabling secure attachment of additional pouches and organizing inserts. Spacious interior supports the organization of larger gear and allows for rapid access to your equipment.
Integrated within the compartment is a water reservoir suspension system, compatible with most bladders up to 3 liters in size. A dedicated hydration tube exit is placed at the back of the pack, streamlining the use of a hydration system while on the move.
A front pocket with an organizer includes three small compartments designed for essential accessories. Located at the top, an administrative pocket offers storage for items needed frequently. Two spacious side pockets provide convenient space for a water bottle or other necessities requiring rapid access.
MOLLE/PALS system, velcro panel
Equipped on the front and sides with MOLLE/PALS webbing, the backpack allows for the secure attachment of extra pouches, accessories, or modular gear. The strap layout is designed to support customized gear setups, while reinforced stitching ensures that attached items remain reliably in place during operations.
A large velcro (hook and loop) panel is integrated onto the administrative pocket, providing a surface for affixing emblems such as a national flag, unit badges, or various Morale Patches.
carrying system, compression straps
The carrying system of the backpack utilizes ergonomically contoured shoulder straps with generous, soft padding that conform comfortably to the shoulders and ensure even weight distribution. D-rings positioned on the shoulder straps enable convenient attachment of small, lightweight accessories.
The back section incorporates 3D mesh, which increases airflow and minimizes heat accumulation during extended use. An adjustable chest strap and waist belt further enhance stability, particularly when carrying heavier loads.
Side-mounted compression straps equipped with Duraflex UTX buckles allow for cinching down the pack’s volume and securing gear more effectively. These straps also provide additional mounting points for gear such as a sleeping mat or sleeping bag.

Great waterproof material. The backpack is very spacious and well designed. The shoulder straps hold well, and the zippers don't get stuck on the material. Unfortunately, the top handle is quite uncomfortable and a bit too small. It also lacks a rear compartment, e.g., for a laptop. Overall, I recommend it both for the outdoors and for everyday work.
-
The backpack is well-designed and quite solidly made. You can nitpick the details, but overall it makes a good impression. I think it's suitable for the outdoors as well as for the city. So far, I am satisfied.
-
Well - I can only confirm other reviews of this backpack; very good materials, well-thought-out design, comfortable. Great access to the inside - it can practically be fully unzipped. And those 40 liters are not just an empty claim, but real capacity! I recommend it!
-
Comfortable, well-stitched backpack. Thoughtfully arranged compartments. Handles well when more fully and heavily packed.
-
Great backpack, holds a lot of equipment. Used at the border, it did the job. After more than half a year of use, there are no signs of wear. It could be a bit wider.
-
Excellent, very spacious and comfortable to use. Well-fitted and comfortable to wear even with a heavy load. I recommend it!
-
The backpack is perfect for trips, very spacious, the quality of workmanship is at a very high level. I recommend it to those who are undecided.

Great backpack, well made, lightweight, durable, and cheaper than the competition.
-
Excellent backpack, lightweight, very spacious, lots of possibilities for expansion and adding pockets and accessories like a camelbak. I recommend :)
-
The 40-liter Epos is an excellent backpack as a BOB. Very easy access to every nook and cranny. Very spacious and intuitive.
-
Very spacious backpack, good back reinforcement. An interesting alternative to the Wisport Zipperfox. The small pocket is perfect for organizing all sorts of gadgets. The only downside is the hip belt, which is of questionable construction.
-
Optimal size even for two weeks. Very good quality. It really looks great.
-
Good backpack, quite spacious, comfortable to carry. The pocket in the flap is useful and roomy.
-
The backpack is very spacious and relatively light. The smaller pocket is well thought out—it has compartments of various sizes and uses. The shoulder straps are comfortable, and the back is decently ventilated. It's just a pity it doesn't have a separate internal pocket for a laptop, for example.
