I literally cried when I lost my first Rush 12 on a journey after years of usage. I bought a new one immediately. And I like what they changed in the 2.0 version. I own a good dozen of backpacks, but the Rush 12 will always have a special place in my heart. Rush 12 - Each day, every day.
@@amitzdullnicker2k I know the feeling. I picked up the version 2 myself, it’s been my EDC since.
Totally agree. I have this bag in black and it goes everywhere with me. Love it. Great quality kit.
I have the same bag in black but the 2.0 which has the laptop compartment which I need. I work in an office and I do get looks also but I don’t care either. Also you can remove the chest strap if you don’t use it which I did since I don’t use it. If I do I can just hook them back on
this is my favorite bag. i love it. use it every day.
@@demounit Same here. I have the 2.0 version now and have been using it as my EDC pack for a while now.
Looks to me that area is/was reinforced with that small patch for that specific purpose. The prototype bag probably had the Wearing in the same area and to help remedy it they added some reinforced.
Correct
Good review. I just got the 2.0 version of this bag a couple weeks ago and can tell it's going to last a really long time. They've removed those rubber pads off of the new ones. They probably were unnecessary. I don't really see the need for grip to your lower back.
Yeah, the 2.0 version is a little different in a few ways… but still a great pack. I have the 12, 24 and 72 in the second version and really like em all. I wish they didn’t get rid of the Sandstone color but I am liking the new Kangaroo color.
Great review. I cut those rubbers off from the back of bag because they kept pulling my shirt up, now it’s perfect.
Great idea! Thanks for taking the time to watch.
How did you do it? Please.
hey man yeah no problem! you be safe and well too! and if you need any further descriptions of a stitch remover or cutter or im not 100% on what they call it but if you need a picture of one cuz i have 2 of them for clothing design just let me know. their super simple no moving parts just a little thing really. but let me know. and like i said their only a couple bucks. ok man best wishes to you and your family and keep doin the vids!:) peace out
Awesome pack man. Love that color too. I've had one for two years and it's still going strong. 5.11 makes great stuff.
+UziNineMillomeetah I agree, really good gear. Thank you for stopping by.
I’ve heard others say that about those hotspots on the back of the Rush 12 as well. Hopefully 5.11 fixes that in the next version.
They did it !😂
PLEASE READ !!hey love the video. i own the rush 72 and i have those rubber tabs on the lower back as well. but what i did i took a stitch remover. its a little plastic thing with a safe stitch cutter and you can just cut the stitches and remove those rubber tabs easily. cuz those tabs just tear at ur shirts and ruin the fabric of ur shirts down there. so i cut out the stitching and took them off. and underneath those rubber pieces is just the nylon like the bag is made out of. you cannot tell they were there to begin with. the backpack looks totally normal. and then those rubber patches dont rub on u and wreck ur shirt or look all messed up like in ur video. now my pack is perfect and looks perfect and no longer do my shirts get fabric irritation. you can find a stitch remover in the sewing section at any store. there only a couple dollars.
Thank you Jason! I appreciate the info. Be well and stay safe.
WOW!!! Bro, you deserve an Oscar for this information, Well done!
Thanks! I appreciate you taking the time to watch.
Well Tim I have to agree with you 110%!! I have the same one , same color and I'm totally in love with this bag. I have a bug-out-bag , and I have an(moab6) EDC bag . This one is my in-between- bag . All my bags have almost all the same gear, maybe more of this or I don't need this in this bag , but my 511 12 is the one I prefer to take with me most of the time. It has got me covered
+Freddie Dorris I'm thinking of getting the Moab6 soon for a camera gear bag, not too sure yet, I need to do a little more video watching. lol
Thanks for the review i got myself one and i carry it everywhere :)
best EDC backpack out there for me ^^
keep on making great videos
Me too my friend. Still using mine and it goes everywhere!
Thanks for the video, I think this backpack it´s gonna work for me.
You won't be disappointed. It's a great pack. I'm still using it to this day as my EDC pack. Thanks for watching.
got the 511, 12 pack works great. I use it for my medic bag.
Great pack for sure!
I've had my bag for some years now. The thing about a lot of packs is that they are becoming to gimmicky simple is the way to go.
Tim, i just rewatched this great vid, i have had this bag for yrs ad they are great,, Vanquest BTW has just come out with their 2000 bags, if they switch to the new style bag i fear they will go broke...also i wanted to get a new mobius, they dont list it,and that bag was a wwinner..your thoughts on vanquest new yr 2000 bags....
Cool accent. Where you live? Just bought a Rush12 for my EDC. Needed a bag, did some research, and fell DEEP into the rabbit hole of EDC backpack research. But it's SO fun!
I have never found or had a need for a bag. However I am finding more and more I need a bag. Working on the addition I wear old crappy clothing but when I go out to store of coffee shop I change. In doing so I have forgot my money, wallet, CC, EDC. If I had everything in a bag I'd just grab and go and not forget moving wallet from work clothing to normal.
+buzzsah I'm sure once you started you'd wonder why you never used an EDC bag before, makes life far more convenient. It certainly does for me anyway, even before I had to little boys with me.
Good day,
Have you washed your bag? Do you have any advise for cleaning or washing the rush12? Can I use ordinary detergent for it?
Thanks for the response
I've never had anything other than dirt on my packs, I'd just use a little wash cloth with a very little bit of dish soap and hot water. All I've had to do was spot clean here and there. The last time I cleaned a backpack I used some interior cleaner for car seats... Worked great.
Great review....dark grey/powder blue colour is called " double tap."
Thanks for watching.
I enjoy your videos! I recently ordered a rush 24 as part of a diaper bag system, but am considering ordering a rush 12 as an EDC bag. I farm and often am switching between vehicles/shop/tractors for 14+ hours a day and I need something that can hold my personal effects as well as fit in a tractor cab. I've been keeping all sorts of stuff in my lunch bag but stuff keeps falling out and I'm constantly fishing for what I need. Would a bag like the rush 12 hold everything I might need for a full day While still fitting in something equivalent to a small passenger seat?
Evan Montgomery Absolutely! I use the 12 as my edc pack and as although it sounds like you may carry more than I do I also never come close to filling it. I'm sure the 12 will serve you well.
Evan Montgomery Hi Evan, I'm just curious if you decided to buy the 12 and if so how's it working out?
8:47. Having a few 5.11 packs, I believe this may be by the way you wear it. I notice how you were saying the quick-release buckles on the straps were too high, I had this same issue until I realised I had the straps way too loose. Ever since then, the bag sits flat against my back perfectly.
Yes. As someone who used to work at an outdoor gear specialty store and was “trained” to fit customers for hiking packs (take that for what it’s worth lol), he should have this pack riding higher on his back. The yoke would be better at load distribution.
All packs should have side pockets; would like to see same for this pack - even mesh for water bottles.
It’s MOLLE so that you can add a water bottle pouch if you need it. Not everyone does 🙂
Precisely. Not having mesh or anything else along the sides of this smaller pack is perfect for me. Nothing to get in the way of attaching gear or attaching molle pouches right to side.
Love the video. I have this same bag for hiking and it is awsome.
Absolutely! I’m a big fan of the RUSH line of packs from 5.11
Hi! Have you tried the direct action brand on your dragon egg model? mark II? it's a 25l beast. I have the rush 12 v1.0 black and I doubt whether to buy the rush 24 sandstone v1.0 (I like this version better than the new one) or the dragon. direct has a better ventilation system in the back among more things. a greeting.
I've heard of them but never had one to play with. I can say I've never heard anything negative about them. All good from what I hear.
@@GearReviewDepot take a look at the dragon egg mark II. Will not disappoint you. a tactical beast.
they work on any thing that has that type of molle system. I actually use it to attach my moab 10 sling pack onto my rush 72
Good review. I have the rush 72 and condor II by maxpedition and a versipak by maxpedition, all in the tan. Coyote tan I call it
Great review I also own the rush 12 ..I just wish it had a waist belt to keep it stable when moving on the fly. And it could use a rain cover or actually be waterproof
MrRUSSWILL Good points but personally I don't use waist belts even on my large packs. My 12 is my edc pack and basically goes from indoors to the car and back indoors, it's been in the rain for just a few minutes and nothing inside got wet but I certainly wouldn't trust it for a prolonged period.
Hi, what colour do you prefer? Sandstone or other? I can’t to choose buy it in sandstone, black, or green! Please help me 😂
I like Sandstone but 511 has since stopped making that color, they now use a color called Kangaroo, which is more brown than tan. Regardless of brand, I like earth tone colors. Not a fan of camouflage but still like to blend in when in the woods.
Good afternoon Sir, Which size backpack would you recommend for EDC, 12hr or 24hr? Whether it be the 5.11 RUSH series or LAPG Atlas series. I carry a fair amount of stuff daily and I'm looking for a better quality pack. I carry and average of 25 pounds of stuff. Sometimes 30lbs, sometimes 20lbs. I also don't want something that is obtrusively huge. Do you think that the 12 hr (Atlas or Rush) is sufficient? Thank you so much for your time.
I have one myself Tim and I'm just like you. I take it everywhere. EDC bag "Every Day Carry" ... Keep up the great work. Thanks brother 👍🏻
+Ed Rodriguez Thank you!
Awesome review, planning on purchasing a rush12 for EDC and at some point a rush72 for a bug out bag. Thanks!
Great choices! Both will handle that very easily.
Looks like a great bag, I think I will get one for day pack, my EDC is the Maxpedition Jumbo Versipack, I like that I can swing it from back to front for quick access.
+Hatch61 I used the Jumbo for years as my EDC but it just wasn't big enough anymore, plus I wanted to try some newer brands so I bought the Vanquest Mobius wich I really love but needed bigger so I went with this.
Great video, thank you. About to buy one of these for archaeological fieldwork. All the best to you.
Awesome! I'm sure it'll serve you well. Thanks for stopping by and watching.
What a great review thanks 😊
Thanks Adam!
Live update videos. Good stuff man
+The Daily Shooter Thank you for stopping by. Be safe.
you can get the rush tier system straps. then you can piggy back the 12 onto the 72
Yes I planned on picking them up. Do they only work using the 12 and 72? What about the 24?
Nice Vid! What color is it? Sandstone?
MrItalianMade Yes. my favorite color for packs and the like. Their Gray is nice as well but I really like the Sandstone.
But once you go black...
Did you figure out that the sternum strap is affixed via C rings? You can take it off and move it further down to get it away from your neck.
Yes. Years ago. Thanks.
Great video man! Do you think this would make a good bag for college? Thats what I want it for. Thanks
+Alejandro Cabrera Absolutely. Not exactly how much you need to carry but I'm sure it'll work just fine. If you feel you may have lots to carry you may want to move up to the 24 instead.
did you end up using this pack for college?
IM sorry for the excessive comments, but can you please help me out on what you think are barebones for a long hike, excess of 4 days, say i had a rush 24, what do you think i could fit in it and what do you think i NEED to bring, thanks a lot for your help; love all your vids C:
+K193 I'm honestly not too sure my friend, not sure if I'm the one best to answer. I've done lots of camping but it was all out of car camping, pull up to a campsite, open trunk and set up tent and other items. I hike a lot but not for days staying outside at night camping during the hike, I wouldn't want to tell you the wrong thing. As much as I'd like to help there are far better people than I when it comes to hiking and camping for days at a time. Especially if you're carrying all your gear on your back.
alrighy, thanks a lot, youve been a great help! Subbed yesterday but gonna keep up with all vids!
You've made the best reviews I've seen for this bag. Im currently waiting for mine to arrive in the mail. Thanks for the video.
Thank you Ceaser. I appreciate you stopping by. 👍
Great video!! What colour scheme/pattern is Rush12 in the video?
5.11 calls this color Sandstone. Great color. Thank you for stopping by.
Have exact same bag for 4years now still perfect condition and I use it everyday.Fits great I am 6ft 180 lbs,super comfortable.Bought from 511 store up here in Ottawa Ontario Canada.Great review
Good day,
What’s the color of that rush12? Great review 👍
Thank you! The color is sandstone. 👍
hola yo tego esta mochila me la mandaron de usa tengo 2 semanas que la uso y se esta desgastando de las gomas es normal que la mochila la sienta pesada y me lastime los hombros
You might be wearing the backpack too low on your back. Pull on the straps so it sits higher on your back.
@@GearReviewDepot gracias una pregunta las gomas que van abajo de la espalda se dejastan rapido es que llevo 2 semanas usandola y se esta desgastando rapido
@@fernandomolinamartinez8196 You might be wearing the pack too loose, so it might be moving around too much. If it’s moving then it’s rubbing against your back and will wear down faster than it should. The pack shouldn’t be moving around too much. Wear the pack tighter to your body.
Awesome stuff! I got the rush 24 based off your videos and it's become my camping/ hiking bag. I'm just trying to refine my gear right now.
Awesome! it's a great pack for sure. I appreciate you watching the videos.
Good review. Nice bag, might pick one up.
Sam Barnhart Thank you for watching!
Very nice and it seems to be high quality!!
+SUFFICIENT SURVIVAL The quality is there for sure. I plan on buying more 5.11 gear soon.
+TheTacticalDefender I'm a HUGE fan of Military Surplus gear, I've always used the molle II rucksack. But the 5.11 company is my second and only choice in other gear, aside from military stuff. They're quality is Amazing and second to NONE!
Time for another update Tim, on the Rush 12
Well... the problem is that I haven't been using it for a while now. I've since moved on to the Trident 21 Gen 3 for me EDC pack. The Trident just has so much more to offer for organizing my EDC items. The 12 is a great pack but it's nothing compared to the Trident.
TheTacticalDefender Oh, that is something else. Personally I am waiting for my supplier to get me the Rush 12. I have the 72 for camping and the 24 for work, but found out that the 24 is a little big sometimes for my needs, as I don’t always need to pack it full.
The rubber pads do wear out sadly. Mine wore out in the first three months. But all in all is a great pack. Thanks for the reply as always buddy. Keep them vids coming. Like always, greetings from Malta
Got the same problenm with that rubber stopper things, i just cut them of ;-)
Everything else on the bag is perfekt.
Best wishes from Germany
Removing them is always an option. Thank you for stopping by. Be well & stay safe.
I order 5.11 rush 24 after watch your video
your video is very helpful
thanks TTD
applemasterz17 That's awesome! I'm positive you're going to be very happy with it.
Why u choose rush 24?
Thanks 4 the video! Great information.
Thank you for your review! I own the same backpack.
No doubt about its solidity and durability but..... it is really heavy !
According to me whenever you have to evaluate a bag, a suitcase or a backpack , the weight matters a lot.
The challenge should be especially for EDC backpack to use advanced fabric to be resistant and waterproof while being light.
The same happened for running clothes: in the past there were used cotton t-shirts, now the t-shirts are made of synthetic material, they are lighter and much more transpirant.
The 5.11 rush 12 is a very good backpack but according to me there were no need to create such a heavy shield of cordura.
I don't pay much attention to the weight, it's never an issue for me. Especially EDC bags/packs because they'er not on my shoulder for very long, Just to go to the car or from the car into work. I do have the bag/pack all day with me when I go out but again it's not on my shoulders for any long length of time. Even my hiking packs, the weight isn't an issue. When I go into the woods to do my thing I rarely hike longer then 3 miles in and out. Maybe on a few occasions I hiked longer to get to a specific spot to work on a video but again I don't ever recall feeling like my pack was too heavy or that I couldn't handle it.
Do you utilize the molle to attach anything extra? I love mine but feel the molle is overkill.
Clay T. I don't. Not on this pack but I also have the 24 and 72 and use the PALS webbing often. Even though it's not used on the 12, I like having just in case I do need/want to use it.
Thank you, sir for very detail review.
Manh Cuong Vo I appreciate you taking the time to watch.
Hey! Hows the molle long term?
Do you mean the PALS webbing for attaching pouches? It’s perfect. Never had any stitches come undone or fall apart. I’ve carried pouches all over my RUSH24 for years and never had one single PALS webbing come apart.
@@GearReviewDepot Good to know! I had the 2.0 a week ago but some of the stitching ends are exposing themselves haha kinda worry that it compromises the carrying load of the PALS webbing
@@xenonhexafluoride9951 I believe it. My RUSH packs are old, I’ve had them longer than I can remember. I wonder if the quality isn’t what it used to be. Unfortunately I wouldn’t be surprised.
This video and review was good, exactly what I was looking for but it could be a bit shorter if you edited out the repetitive parts telling your viewers it's your edc bag and how many places you take it. Just a friendly suggestion. :) Have a good day!
Thanks for watching.
I order mine in double tap color will be here tomorrow, Do you still use it for EDC? What is pro and con.
Yes it's still used. As a matter of fact it's sitting here next to me in my car. It's perfect, no cons. You'll be very pleased I'm sure.
Thanks. I was looking in the Rush 72 pack as for luggage bag for 4 to 5 days. Will it too big for carry on in the plane ?
Yes. I'm sure it will. It's a big pack!
thanks
Would a female be better off with this vs the Vanquest Ibex 20?
sablebush I honestly don't think there's much difference (for a female) in the two bags, they're both great with some different features but I don't feel one would be better than the other for a woman. My wife has worn both and even though the 20 has slightly more padding overall than the 12, she found both comfortable. The big difference between the two comes down to organizing your gear, the 12 has lots of pockets and pouches whereas the 20 has a few on the outside but it's mostly one big roomy pack on the inside.
thanks I have tried numerous packs and never can seem to get everything I want to carry in a pouch or packed away.
sablebush The truth is no pack is perfect nor will it have everything you like or need, you have to find that one pack that can come as close as possible.
I've been looking at the new storm gray stuff it is beautiful
+Ryan Robinson I think when I get the 24 I'll buy it in that gray this time.
what colour option is your bag in the video?
byron. Sandstone.
Great! It looks good. That is the one I ordered.
byron. I Love the RUSH line of packs. The 12 us still my EDC pack, it's actually sitting on the seat next to me as I'm writing this. Great pack for sure!
Would this be a good bag for school?
tsarsfield12 Absolutely! It would perform perfectly.
TheTacticalDefender could I use a rush 24 for school or a carry on bag on planes
What color is that? If it's green I can't fine that color on their website. TIA
It's Sandstone.
No offense, but you look like a low-budget guy fieri. Awesome videos!
Not exactly sure what a low budget kind of guy looks like. I certainly don't want to look like I have a lot of money... so I'll take it as a compliment. 😁
awesome great review Tim
+unclecow Thank you!
Pls help me i choose rush 24 or rush 12
That depends on what you plan on doing with the pack and what you'll be carrying in it.
Brilliant video
Thank you for watching!
I went ahead and bought a rush 24 in grey! Much thanks to your thorough review! Have a nice day!
What "situations" would you need an edc bag for?
Every day situations. AKA life.
Only thing is the lack of lap top sleeve
This is true but I don't EDC a laptop so it works for me. I've been using a couple Vanquest backpacks for EDC now and not only are they better for organization but they all have laptop sleeves or compartments. Thanks for stopping by. Very much appreciated.
The rush 72 has two side pockets perfect for large water containers, I’ll use those for water and pack the laptop in the hydration pocket, perfect for a 15” MacBook Pro
Does it fit a 17 inch laptop or at least a 15 inch laptop?
According to their website you shouldn't have a problem.
What size hydration bladder can it carry?
17” x 11” 1.5 liter hydration pocket. Thank you stopping by.
+TheTacticalDefender Thankyou for the quick reply! Nice channel keep up the good reviews.
+Will Sartin (5RWill) Thank you!
Two litre Osprey fit mine perfect!
Nice review! Got my lady MOAB10 for a get home bag really nice stuff!
+Tim Shull My wife is still a maxpedition fan, I'm trying to get her into the 5.11... Some day I guess.
Nice One Bro!
+The Lone Patriot 111 Thank you!
Nice video, Im a new subscriber, you present your material in an average guy kinda way... Turned on my notification bell for you...
Thank you! Much appreciated. 👍
The pack is too small for you....its like you putting on a jacket that is to small for you.... different sizes for different sizes......WTF!!
I'm sorry you're too hung up on how things look as apposed to is it serving a purpose. It's an EDC pack... not a fashion show. Thanks for stopping by.
i have type one diabetes
Sorry to hear it my friend.
The struggle is real.
Check lowcarbdownunder, some great info on managing type 1 diabetes. IHMC channel as well. Good luck sir. Do consult your doctor first.
Sux plus minutes into the video ..still speech going on ...waste of time...
I'm sure it was. Thanks for stopping by nonetheless.
hey, nice vid man, you dropped 25 pounds, even better
Very repetitive.
Maybe not for you
