I have the original version of the Rush 12 and it’s the perfect travel bag!! In my opinion the upgrade isn’t that big of a deal. I use this bag when I go on a 2 or 3 day get away. It’s the perfect carry on and with all the organization it has it actually has more than my carry on suitcase. Having the different compartments makes finding ur stuff so much easier and the bag is built like a tank !
I just picked one up in "double-Tap" (basically dark blue/gray). I got it for wilderness day hiking, and it's the perfect size - I also love the quick access pistol compartment, in case I run into an animal that wants to eat me. My only very minor complaint is that there isn't a built-in water bottle holder. But it's covered in molle loops to add one externally.
Bought mine a few weeks ago, terrific quality. Will be testing the pack out next month on my trip to the Caribbean. It is a bit heavy, but that's the trade-ff for having all the molly, padding, pockets etc. Great vid!
Thanks for the review and taking the time to make this video. I purchased mine already and thanks to you video I purchased with confidence. I’m pretty pleased with the purchase.

Excellent review! I have the Rush 24 and 72 for almost 7 years now and used it for traveling and vacation overseas. 5:11 makes excellent backpacks and no other brands compare. Will be buying the new Rush 24 in the Navy blue color soon. Thanks for sharing brother!
Thank you! Truly appreciate you checking out the review! I will have a hard time ever replacing my 5.11 backpacks because they are like no other. I couldn't be happier with all my Rush bags and anxious to try more of their gear down the road.

I completely agree with you. It is a major design flaw for those who could be caught out in major rain. The velcro does not completely go the length of the enclosure ( gap in the middle to help open quicker ) and there isn't any drainage for that pocket which sits between the 2 main compartments. Definitely not an ideal backpack for everyday use / or wet climate zones. Luckily I live in the desert portion of the PNW so I don't have to worry to much.

Great review. I have the older version of the 24 that I use for travel (back when we did that) and to be honest, I think I prefer the large drawstring pouch on the older model. I could fit a 15" laptop in the bladder section no issues. The inside drawstring pouch worked really well for holding clothes without using packing cubes, etc. Either way its a great well built bag, I also have the 12 (and the 10 sling I keep in my truck) and 5.11 just makes awesome gear. Thanks for the vid.
Thank you for checking out the review, I truly appreciate the support. I agree, 5.11 keeps making gear that truly gets the job done. My Rush 72 is 1st gen but I haven't had the opportunity yet to compare the 1st gen 24 to the new 2.0 but based on what you described I really want to check one out. You can never have to many backpacks 😂
Awesome review. Thank you! Something I wonder about is the venting in the back. I'm looking for something that vents as I move and my back gets hot. Any recommendations?

I just went back through my Rush24 2.0 and I still don't see any additional pockets along the inside sidewall?? If there is I am going to be shown a picture or something cause now you got me curious. Thank you for checking out the review
@@PNWoutdoorReviews I’m thinking of the rush 12 they don’t have them, but they should. I thought I saw an elastic band on the inside upper wall, was sure if that was a pouch or pocket?
@@PNWoutdoorReviews It looks like a great bag for school and transitioning it to hiking/range days. Plus it looks like it can take one heck of a beating anyways
I think I'd like 5.11 gear but have never felt justified in paying the prices they ask. But after seeing this, I might be willing to bite the bullet. Thanks for sharing.
I felt that way for a very long time. I still feel that way about their clothes and gear but when I decided to finally buy my Rush 72 I couldn't have been any more impressed. I knew then I wanted to buy their Rush 24. Yes they are still pricey but I feel like there backpacks will easily outlast any bag I've ever owned. But I'll still probably buy other brands in the future cause I do have to try others to review 😂 I really appreciate you checking out the review, Thank you.
Not that expensive when compared to other similar companies / brands. I've tried a few packs over the years from maxpedtion and more recently Direct Action. The maxpedtion gear slinger I don't think will ever break on me, but lives in my vehicle. The direct action dragon egg has been used a lot over the years but the organiser pocket has come away and some buckles have broken (which can't really be replaced) after some pretty light abuse. They are both more expensive than this pack, and this has more load capacity. I got one of these on order, Ranger Green. Im going it does me over a decade of use, so worth the money when looked at that way
I haven't had a chance yet to check out anything from Hazard 4 but I'll definitely need to in the future so I have something to compare to the 5.11 bags. Appreciate you checking out the review and for the support.
Laptop comparment is not really practical because you won't be able to pull out your laptop without removing all the stuff sitting on top of it first. That makes it not airport frendly. It would be better to have additolional zip on top of that compartment for easier and faster access to the laptop.
Yeah your right about the laptop compartment. It's definitely not a quick deployment storage pocket but for the average Joe not doing a bunch of airport travel it's not all that bad. I do agree it should have it's own access zipper or something like that to get to it quicker.
@@yossavinsombutpanich9316 Sorry for the late response. The laptop compartment does have adequate padding on both sides. It would have plenty of protection if you dropped the bag or hit it against something.
I haven't found anyone who wasn't happy with their 5.11 backpack so if you're wanting something that's comparable then this would be a great option or the 72 if you wanted more space.
Thanks for this video. Is the pass-through port for a water hose under the shoulder harness? Wondering if the shoulder harness would be applying pressure on the hose?
Thank you for checking out the review! Yes the pass-through port is directly top center just under/behind the shoulder straps but when you are wearing the backpack it lifts the straps away from the port allowing plenty of space for the water hose. No chance of it getting pinched.
It's on my list of gear to review but I can tell you right now I'm gonna have good things to say about it. Both my 72 & 24 have been great backpacks for what I use them for and the 12 is going to be a much wanted and needed addition to my EDC gear.
Unfortunately I still use my Rush 72 every day unless I'm going to the range. I bought the Rush 24 as my range bag but sometimes I'll bring both backpacks because if the gear I have stuffed in them. But I'm thinking about giving a Rush 72 away in a future giveaway so please stay tuned in for that. Thank you for checking out the review.
Well I'm can't find anywhere that the kangaroo color on the Rush 2.0's are new and I don't own an original rush model to compare it to. Either way it looks great.

I bought one and it sure feels different then any other backpack-better. Also i sprayed mine down more than once with Scotchguard. I recommend that you do that if you purchase one of these.
This guy talks about pockets like it's the first time he's ever had pockets. It's like he lived in a place where only the dictator had pockets, and now he's in the west, where people have so many pockets they don't even appreciate them. Some decadent folks even go around nonchalantly wasting pockets by not putting anything in them. He is too ashamed of living in such pocket luxury that he hides pockets when sending pictures back to his family, so they don't think he's become an entitled, spoiled, pocket hedonist. He's vowed to himself that when he has children, he will teach them to appreciate pockets. They have to know there are people in the world who have to wait 10 years before being assigned their one lifetime pocket, and pocket crime is so severe that people who have pockets often fear having their pockets stolen by pocketless pocket thieves.

i have the older version,,, and carry it alot,.. what i missed there and also in this new version is the belly belt
sorry for my bad english
I'm just a little concern that water could get into the concealed area, i don't see draining holes or anything, and i don't think the velcro closure would keep water out in case of heavy rain or something
I completely agree with you. It is a major design flaw for those who could be caught out in major rain. The velcro does not completely go the length of the enclosure ( gap in the middle to help open quicker ) and there isn't any drainage for that pocket which sits between the 2 main compartments. Definitely not an ideal backpack for everyday use / or wet climate zones. Luckily I live in the desert portion of the PNW so I don't have to worry to much. I'm planning on making a follow up video on this backpack so I will address this issue.

You forgot about the side wall pockets inside the main compartment wall. Older versions didn’t have them.
I just went back through my Rush24 2.0 and I still don't see any additional pockets along the inside sidewall?? If there is I am going to be shown a picture or something cause now you got me curious.
Thank you for checking out the review
@@PNWoutdoorReviews I’m thinking of the rush 12 they don’t have them, but they should. I thought I saw an elastic band on the inside upper wall, was sure if that was a pouch or pocket?
wasn’t’
@@turbotim007 I completely agree with you about the Rush12. They really should have added the outer side pockets.
Well it looks like I’m picking this bag for my future endeavors
You won't regret it 👍 I'm buying the Rush 12 2.0 very soon
@@PNWoutdoorReviews It looks like a great bag for school and transitioning it to hiking/range days. Plus it looks like it can take one heck of a beating anyways
I think I'd like 5.11 gear but have never felt justified in paying the prices they ask. But after seeing this, I might be willing to bite the bullet. Thanks for sharing.
I felt that way for a very long time. I still feel that way about their clothes and gear but when I decided to finally buy my Rush 72 I couldn't have been any more impressed. I knew then I wanted to buy their Rush 24. Yes they are still pricey but I feel like there backpacks will easily outlast any bag I've ever owned. But I'll still probably buy other brands in the future cause I do have to try others to review 😂
I really appreciate you checking out the review, Thank you.
Do it! You won't regret it!👍👍👍
Not that expensive when compared to other similar companies / brands. I've tried a few packs over the years from maxpedtion and more recently Direct Action. The maxpedtion gear slinger I don't think will ever break on me, but lives in my vehicle. The direct action dragon egg has been used a lot over the years but the organiser pocket has come away and some buckles have broken (which can't really be replaced) after some pretty light abuse. They are both more expensive than this pack, and this has more load capacity. I got one of these on order, Ranger Green. Im going it does me over a decade of use, so worth the money when looked at that way
I got the maxpedition Sitka gearslinger but need a little bigger bag w ccw compartment. Looks like this is the one
It truly is a very well designed backpack with ample storage.
Thank you for checking out the review!
Great review.
Thansk for a great review, kinda split between this or Hazard 4
I haven't had a chance yet to check out anything from Hazard 4 but I'll definitely need to in the future so I have something to compare to the 5.11 bags. Appreciate you checking out the review and for the support.
@@PNWoutdoorReviews Thanks. Hazard 4 patrol pack has more features but also very expensive for it"s size.
I like the concel carry Pocket
Me too! That made this bag worth even more to me cause I'm using it as my range bag.
Agreed. Glad they added the ccw pocket perfectly.
I liked this backpack I'm gonna buy soon 👍👍
i really like your relaxed rev style - not that overhyped shit - keep em comming
Thank you so much! Truly appreciate the awesome feedback
I wonder if this will make a great fishing bag. The one I use now is just too small.
This holds a lot of gear and personally feel it would be great for fishing gear.
What should I say? I love this Series! 👍👍👍
Me too! Appreciate you checking out the review
Laptop comparment is not really practical because you won't be able to pull out your laptop without removing all the stuff sitting on top of it first. That makes it not airport frendly. It would be better to have additolional zip on top of that compartment for easier and faster access to the laptop.
Yeah your right about the laptop compartment. It's definitely not a quick deployment storage pocket but for the average Joe not doing a bunch of airport travel it's not all that bad. I do agree it should have it's own access zipper or something like that to get to it quicker.
@@PNWoutdoorReviews Is the laptop compartment well padded?
@@yossavinsombutpanich9316 Sorry for the late response. The laptop compartment does have adequate padding on both sides. It would have plenty of protection if you dropped the bag or hit it against something.
Put your laptop into the water bladder compartment. There it is accessible at any time w/o loading out anything.
hey :)
I want to buy a new bagback, and i'm used to my militairy bagback. can i compare thoose 2 ?
Thanks in advance !
I haven't found anyone who wasn't happy with their 5.11 backpack so if you're wanting something that's comparable then this would be a great option or the 72 if you wanted more space.
@@PNWoutdoorReviews Thanks a lot for your quick answer !
Thanks a lot ! then i know i can buy this one also privatly ;)
ThanQ for filming
Thank you for checking out the review
Great
Good review , looks like a well made pack , thanks for sharing , God bless !
Appreciate you checking out the review, Thank you
Is the dimensions changed at all from the previous version?
Not really. The only real changes is the design/layout of the interior storage. I personally like the layout better than my first generation.
Hydration 2L or 3L?
2L will work perfectly
Me enamore de esa mochila espero algun dia tener esa mochila saludos desde Perú
Thank you so much for supporting the channel all the way from Peru! This truly is one of my favorite backpacks
Thanks for this video. Is the pass-through port for a water hose under the shoulder harness? Wondering if the shoulder harness would be applying pressure on the hose?
Thank you for checking out the review! Yes the pass-through port is directly top center just under/behind the shoulder straps but when you are wearing the backpack it lifts the straps away from the port allowing plenty of space for the water hose. No chance of it getting pinched.
What color is? Phyton?
This is their kangaroo color
Will you review rush12 2.0
It's on my list of gear to review but I can tell you right now I'm gonna have good things to say about it. Both my 72 & 24 have been great backpacks for what I use them for and the 12 is going to be a much wanted and needed addition to my EDC gear.
Damn it!!! Now I've gotta get me one of these!!!😀
Just wondering, What happened with your 5.11 Rush 72? If you dont use it anymore can i have it?
Unfortunately I still use my Rush 72 every day unless I'm going to the range. I bought the Rush 24 as my range bag but sometimes I'll bring both backpacks because if the gear I have stuffed in them. But I'm thinking about giving a Rush 72 away in a future giveaway so please stay tuned in for that.
Thank you for checking out the review.
@@PNWoutdoorReviews i like the rush more than the rush 2.0. Looking forward to the rush 72

Is that the new kangaroo color?
Well I'm can't find anywhere that the kangaroo color on the Rush 2.0's are new and I don't own an original rush model to compare it to. Either way it looks great.
@@PNWoutdoorReviews ie. kangaroo replaced sandstone so new color. So it is kangaroo you're holding here?
Yes it's Kangaroo

Waterproof?
It's water resistant but heavy rainfall will eventually get through it.
I bought one and it sure feels different then any other backpack-better. Also i sprayed mine down more than once with Scotchguard. I recommend that you do that if you purchase one of these.
I want it.
👍🏽
Is a bad copy to FIRST TACTICAL TACTIX that to 2.0, COME ON MAN, is a shame for 5.11
I personally haven't heard of that brand but now that you got me looking at it I will be buying one to compare. Thank you for letting me know.
Lmao. That voice 😂
Voice of an angel
Way too many pockets take a dump pack anyday.
Ain't nothing wrong with that also. Appreciate you checking out the review
This guy talks about pockets like it's the first time he's ever had pockets. It's like he lived in a place where only the dictator had pockets, and now he's in the west, where people have so many pockets they don't even appreciate them. Some decadent folks even go around nonchalantly wasting pockets by not putting anything in them.
He is too ashamed of living in such pocket luxury that he hides pockets when sending pictures back to his family, so they don't think he's become an entitled, spoiled, pocket hedonist.
He's vowed to himself that when he has children, he will teach them to appreciate pockets. They have to know there are people in the world who have to wait 10 years before being assigned their one lifetime pocket, and pocket crime is so severe that people who have pockets often fear having their pockets stolen by pocketless pocket thieves.
😂 I really do appreciate pockets and I do appreciate you checking out the review of this backpack that definitely doesn't have enough pockets.
