When it comes to tactical backpacks, let’s face it, the Rush series from 5.11 Tactical is easily among the most popular of them all. After putting together a list of my top bug out bag essentials, I knew I needed a better backpack to carry all of that cargo around.
Luckily, 5.11 Tactical had just the answer. Their three day, 55-liter Rush72 backpack came all with the storage, organizer pockets, and utility I could ever need. Of course, the ruggedly well-built construction meant that this was a pack I could trust too.
Over an extended wildness adventure, I had an opportunity to give the Rush72 backpack a solid review.

Men’s Hari Mari X Nokona Sandals Review
Surprisingly, no matter how I arranged my gear somehow it all managed to fit one way or another. Even my Team Wendy helmet managed to fit in the extendable exterior compartment. My 5.11 Tactical boots, which are seriously beefy by the way, were the perfect fit for the main interior compartment.
