Helikon Tex EDC Pack: Urban Survival Backpack
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 апр 2020
- Thanks for watching.. This video is kind of a follow up to the Guardian Assault pack that I reviewed a couple weeks ago. Since I found this Helikon Tex I really wanted to dive into their lineup. The EDC Pack is good budget pack with 500 D Cordura, good building materials and sewing. In my experience every budget pack makes you make sacrifices. This pack makes you make several. Overall, a good buy but some may come away feeling like it comes up short.

I appreciate that!
"But his need to sustain a high caloric diet could prove challenging in this harsh terrain". My votes still with you. Go man!
I like FOOD! Be Safe
You put a smile on my face with that intro.
Bring of the larger breed, 6’2” 280lbs, I appreciate you putting your height and weight out there when you show the pack being worn, gives me a real idea of what it will be like on my back. Great review.
I remember skipping this video because I wasn’t into helping
HelikonTex; now I’m going down that/their rabbit hole. Good stuff! I especially appreciate the not-1000 denier stiffness. 500 is plenty good for us weekend warriors & urban folks. Price can’t be beat.
Keep the awesome pack reviews coming, George! Love HT!
He best is back ,keep these videos going your by far the best reviewer and honest with it
Thanks for the compliment! Be Safe
Awesome Video! Thank you for sharing with us. Can't wait to see more videos 😊

More supremely informative and entertaining content. I LOL'd at your Kit Kat solitude moment. Thanks, George!
Survival Kit Kats.. lol Be Safe
Hands down the best review on this backpack I have found. Keep the great work up!
Bought an Eastpack a month ago and it allready fell appart so I returned it and will probably get this thing 'cause of the review. Seems to be a great value for dayhikes and as an EDC!
Nice.. Thanks for watching.. Be Safe ✌🏾
Ive been contemplating getting this pack!! Thanks for the review
Glad I could help!
Man, I thought that was Rambo when you came out from behind that trash can!
Ha! Rambro! Be Safe ✌🏾
Great stuff, first time watcher and subbed. Looking forward to more
Beautiful pack, and top notch gear review!
More to come!
Great review! Thanks!
good review, thanks man
I am building three car bags for my family and came across this bag when looking for a budget bag to stay in the car. They also have an EDC Lite that looks similar to this one. I would love to see you do a vs comparison between the two. I really enjoy your reviews so keep it up. Tks
Awesome video!! Inspiration for my content. Keep it up!
Great job on the edc bag👍👍👍
This was a random recommendation video, but that intro was hilarious 🤣
Thanks for watching Pabro.. Be Safe
Dope review as always bro 💪🏻
Thanks for watching.. Be Safe ✌🏾
Thanks George
For George‘s videos, I press thumb up before watching.
Thanks.. Now if I can get everyone else in line... lol Be Safe
Nice review !
Great intro !
It looks like the Milspec Monkey Adapt Pack.
Keep up the great work !!!
I great review, love your videos
Glad you like them!
Damn, how have the RUclips gods not suggested this Channel to me before? You have a new sub my man 🙏🏽👍🏽
Well your here now! Thanks for the sub! Be Safe
Your intros get better and better.
The wife's idea! Be safe ✌🏾
Another good review and original intro. Nice price bag for those folks looking for a lower price entry level bag. Not sure how you have so many bags but I'm not mad at'cha !
Thanks TJ Be Safe
hey george, i have a suggestion/video idea for you: since all these packs have the pals webbing all over them, maybe review a collection of molle compatible pouches and water bottle pockets and see how they look/function on the various bags. love the channel btw, your reviews are getting better and better!!
Noted!
Great video! Check out the Raider backpack from Helikon Tex. It's another great bag from them that offers versatility and comes with several useful features.
Great review, and fun to watch! Thanks! :)
PS: Wish there was some molle on the bottom ...
Haha great intro!
Nice ;) Helikon company is from my city - Wrocław !
lmfao, amazing intro. love the opinions and knowledge you drop on the packs. yoooo check out the mk2 buttpack from helikon.
Buttpack? Ok Be safe ✌🏾
LOL WELL DONE BRUTTA
Thanks.. I have a patch for you. You won a couple of videos back.. Email me georgedefined@gmail.com.. Be Safe ✌🏾
They put loop as the backing in the first compartment but not in the main compartment. If both compartments were loop backing then you could add stuff like the laptop sleeve in the Vertx or any number of admin panels or admin bags like 5.11's AMP series. I would like to see loop as the lining for the pack in any place big enough to attach something, then all they have to do is get the pockets right and good straps.
Very nice Video. I had this Bag a year ago and I think for this Price you can't get a better bag.
Nice.. I'm glad it does well over time.. Be Safe
I recently got this backpack because I wanted to update my prepping gear which was 8 or 9 years old. I got it in the Pencott Wildwood camo pattern which is excellent for North Louisiana where I live. I’m really impressed with this bag! I keep it in my truck and I’m using it for my “get home bag” in case the US is attacked by EMP’s and I got to walk all the way home from my job. About a 20 mile walk. Yes I’m one of those crazy prepper guys lol! I got my bag pretty stuffed with things that I might need but I’ll adjust my bag to the circumstances when the time comes. I’m trying to keep it as light as I can. I’ll also have a ammo bag across my belly with 4 AR mags and 8 Glock mags. Hopefully a show of force will make any bad guys on the road decide the juice isn’t worth the squeeze.
I'm a prepped to a point but I need to invest in a proper setup.. Be safe ✌🏾
This is an awesome bag for $50. Great find George. An option... You can always put your laptop in a sleeve in the main compartment.
By the way George, your partner on Naked and Afraid would kick you out of the two-man squad for showing up with an empty EDC.
I could never do naked and afraid... I don't need to prove anything! Camping = YES being unprepared for no reason = NO ... Be Safe
9:15 opening the bag
Very nice intro..I am entertained..
Thank you 😁
Put a small carabiner on the outside drawstring to stop you worrying about your jacket etc disappearing when trekking.
Thanks for this review. I was about to order this pack and needed to know what the inside looks like. The HT site shows an organizer panel on the velcro, they don't say that it isn't included. I'm still debating the EDC vs the Bergen, each has points in its favor.
I ended up ordering the Bergen. I figured out I was trying to configure the EDC with three external E & E pouches (at $40 USD each) - essentially turning it into a Bergen but with a higher price tag. The prices on the main site in Poland listed the Bergen at $115 - $117 but when I checked out it cost $96, must by the EU VAT. Anyway, I ordered it last Sunday night and received it yesterday. No idea how that happened but I'm really impressed with the service and the pack itself, it's well made with quality materials. External pouches will be easier for me to get to the things I need most often or in a hurry without scrounging through the main compartment.
Nice video again! Thanks. A question - is there a frame sheet inside to support the back panel?
Yes sir..
🔥
Could this be attached to a plate carrier? Great review btw! Love seeing my people producing quality content. Subbed!
I don't know... I don't see and additional pals attachment points. Be Safe
anything can be attached to PC ;). if all else fails, zip ties are your best friend ;) .
Pretty great intro and thanks for the video. Do you plan on looking at the "lite" version of this pack? Very interested in that, but not sure about the material.
Your the second person to mention that! I guess I should..lol
@@GeorgeDEFINED I guess that's some "George effect", since guys who don't particularly like molle seem to gather around here. The lite version looks neat also because of the bottle holders, but I'm not really sold on the material. That's why I would like to hear what you say about it.
VERY similar to the MilspecMonkey Adapt Pack. Even the shoulder straps are the same.
I'll have to look at that one.. One of my coworkers told me that all TVs are made in the same factory they just put different branding on them.. I wonder if the same with packs? Be safe ✌🏾
Worth this helikon edc over raccoon mk2 for edc, city, for outdoor in the second place?
My savotta jääkäri m bag is something that I recommend, not just for edc, but for rest of your life.
They have a lite version without molle, and it still has the shock cord.
Nice! I'll have to check that out... Be Safe
got mine
How do you like it?
@@GeorgeDEFINED really like it
I watch this video so many time before buy it, totally worth my money, your video really inspired me to buy it. Thank you.
😊
LMAO that friction fire was serious
Well..lol I did get it started with some help! Be Safe
Use Helikon Backpack Insert if you need laptop sleeve.
Hilarious intro bro rofl.
Co czarny człowiek może trzymać w plecaku? Oczywiście broń😁
A ogólnie miło, że polski produkt cieszy się popularnością za granicami naszego kraju😊
Now there 80$ plus. Sucks cause I like the Mollee but I cannot stand when I bag is covered in that mollee. Unless your being deployed or specifically keeping it for a go bag or some type of work or hiking your not gna use it. Or I won’t. But having the ability is important this is great. To much now though
I’ve never seen a channel with this many backpacks, no wonder you’re having a sell!😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hi George, how does the helikon quality compare to the vertx gambit 2.0 in terms of hardware, nylon fabric and workmanship?
It's not close.. Vertx is better... Be safe ✌🏾
Okay seriously, forget about Chase Reeves. Your are hands down the master of bag review intros. The rest of the videos are not bad also ;)
Ha! Where is Chase at so I can rub it in his face! lol Be Safe
@@GeorgeDEFINED hahaha, right! Thanks and you too :)
45,82 Euro for Pencott Wildwood 3 years ago 😅... today 100 Euro... crazy
LMAO 😂 this is funny
Not bad for $52!
For all my cheapskates! See ya..
I'm 72 never had a laptop so a lap top isn't a issue, guess I'm weird you can exist without one. My smart phone suffices.
Just wondering, the pack looks a lil thin and flimsy. Is that the case?
Not at all... Not the strongest I have ever seen but it's solid
what color did you get it in?
I think they call it shadow gray.. Be Safe
I like this one George... and you know me, I am very loyal to the 5.11 Rush24. But this price point... dang... this has got my attention. Do you know if they make a smaller sling pack version too?
They make everything from fannypacks all the way up to full size military bags

There you go
It appears they do.. Helikon-Tex EDC Sling Backpack: amzn.to/2Vz2HN0
George DEFINED nice thanks!!
Macam Rambo ( Arnold schwarzenegger) lagi berlaga kat dlm film ..Uncle ni bisa aja acting 🤣🤣🤣😋🤣
Having spent up to 400$ in the past for triple aught fast,I start to believe that "low budget" edc rucksacks like this helikon tex and similar,are just normal priced while loads of the high-end ones are simply overpriced.
There are some brands making packs that are high value.. Be Safe
I think your reviews are great . But I disagree about the laptop compartment. The fact that it is minimum is a plus for me many many bags have laptop foam that just is dead space for me . If you need a laptop bag there are a million bags out there . Usually cut and butcher out any laptop sleeve, even expensive bags the first thing I do is cut out foam bulky sleeves. Am I the only one ? Looks a great bag , but in a small bag like that those compression straps would have to get the scissors treatment for the minimal effect.
Interesting! It's good to hear different perspectives on gear.... What is your current EDC? Be Safe
@@GeorgeDEFINED Thanks for the reply George . I am a bagaholic , so my 3 favourites at the moment are mountain Hardware multipitch 20 , Black diamond street creek 20 , and the Camlebak HAWG military. But as a bagaholic next might be different? Thanks for all your efforts and greetings from Scotland.
You didnt tell us if you survived Naked and Afraid. I believe if youre a company and you put EDC in the title of the product, it should meet the needs of all potential users. Not having a laptop sleeve is a big misstep even if it is a budget backpack. You should have a head-to-head comparo between this bag and the Direct Action Dust. Oops, my bad.Thanks for sharing. One.
kidbach That's a good idea.
Someone has my Direct Action DUST! I agree about the laptop sleeve.. but some don't 🤷🏾♂️ Be Safe ✌🏾
@@GeorgeDEFINED that guy that has your DA Dust ought to be ashamed of himself. Totally uncool.
Like this one. Might need to pick one up. Great video too!
@@wilh.8999 I ordered one today after watching this,in ral 7013 plus the large edc insert.Thank you for the video George!
Kinda a sad world that people think they have to have a laptop in their proximity 24/7. And Helicon Tex makes awesome gear . They're pants are incredible for hard use.
