Funny, I carry my bags on the left shoulder as well even though I'm right handed.

Ok, I'm confused. I have a jansport I love with a strong durable leather bottom and molle straps that I have edc'd for maybe 2-3 years. It has about 15-20 pounds of gear most of the time.

How would a maxpedition be better? Clearly everyone loves them but I'm looking for some details, please. Thanks.

Also, how about weather resistance? I've used the spray water repellent but I would prefer an all weather bag. Not the ones you can dunk in a river, just one that can handle a little rain.

I resisted for years. Now my other bags seem like puny junk.


Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

I used to have a Jansport... it seems so flimsy now in comparison. I've EDC'd a Maxpedition Pygmy Falcon Pack now for several years and it's still going strong! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />

I've got several different Maxpediton bags and packs. And to think I used to make fun of my wife for all her purses... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/loopy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/paperbag.gif" alt="" /> Now I've probably got just as many man purses as her..... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

I got my wife a Jumbo-S exactly like Vic's for a Christmas present.
Even put a bit of a PSK kit into it for her. So far it's been sitting
in the bedroom.
I really like it, and am going to get myself one soon, but I don't think
that she likes hers that much.
Don't know why. It is a very good bag.
