i absolutely love my rush 12 2.0. its such an amazing bag. i just love watching videos of people talking about them because i love looking at the bag haha
Ive had my rush 24 for around 6yrs give or take and i use it everyday as my work bag moving from truck to truck in the power industry. Its been on several overseas trips and is perfect as carry on and the inside pockets are awesome for work gear or spare shorts & tshirts , etc incase your luggage runs late . So good im buying a 2nd for the wife ...
It sounds like we have taken our bags through similar tests haha. I'm hoping that your wife's bag will be a different colour to yours as to avoid taking the wrong bag to work ;)
I have the Rush 24. I use it when I go to work and I think it's about 8 years old. I accidentally broke one of the pull tabs on the main compartment zipper, but I was able to fix it by tying a knot.
My laptop is only 15 inch, narrow, and it fit very snugglly. So I don't know for sure, for you with a 15.6 but I reckon it's either going to be super tight or too big. The 24 is a very loose comfortable fit though so that may be the better choice.
All 5.11 bags i have owned had the same issue. The zippers are trash for the price point. The stiching comes out or the zipper just falls off. An that was less than 5 months of normal duty use, which is sitting in the passenger seat with my paper work in it and going back and forth to my locker. Spend your money on military grade bags. It is an actual thing. A surplus assault pack can be had for as low as $24 and is almost indestructible with ykk zipers.
@@jack_powell Doesn't matter what they use if they fall out or fall apart. Check the zippers on a surplus assault pack or field pack they are not what 5'11 uses. Chinese zippers arent the same as B compliant ones.

@@suburbangardenshed yea , going to get her the black one , she won't carry cammo 😂
My zip bursted lomg ago, but the fabric is closer to being too weak now, over 10 years of heavy use already 😅
Nice, I still have a bit of catching up to do, and I'm still in tact so far :)

Nice fix. I broke a zip on another bag and I fixed it with a cable tie haha. 8 years is definitely a good run so far :)
does the 15.6 inch laptop fit in the rush 12 main laptop compartment?

I guess we have just had different experiences with our bags. We can agree to disagree :)
5.11 bags only use YKK zippers..
