I have an Envoy 13 and it’s awesome with 1 complaint. The water bottle side pockets are so difficult to get bottles in. I like the option of a 15- is this meant to replace the Envoy?
I just wish the front Velcro panel wasn’t there. If anything put it in the underside of the pack but it doesn’t match the other urban stuff. I have a trident, javelin and ibex. I was considering an envoy but heard y’all were making an urban messenger bag. It’s literally exactly what I wanted because I work in an office except the Velcro just looks misplaced. It doesn’t match the Addax or Carbide. I want the urban fabric!! Stop covering it!!!!
What they do not tell you about the messenger bags is that after you load the top flap and the front of the bag underneath the flap with all of your accessories... this bag will lean to almost a 75-degree angle to the front and will not sit up straight due to the bag becoming too top-heavy once the flap is closed. The bag will not sit level and is a design flaw. There is simply too much weight on the front of the bag and not enough compartments in the rear to balance out the bag just sit up straight I sent mine back. Plus I think the flap is just a horrible design every time you want to get in to access the front of the bag you always have to lift that flap open listening to Velcro... it's not user-friendly.
We are including silencer straps of Velcro to prevent them from engaging if you don’t want to use the Velcro and only the clips. If you want the bag to stand on its own, then you’ll want to be conscience of how you pack it. Thanks for the feed back!
@@vanquestgear awesome on the silencer strips! My timbuk 2 messenger bag has them and they’re amazing (so I don’t mess with the Velcro all the time) I was hoping you were going to do it but didn’t see it demonstrated. So glad you’re doing this
If you’re keeping that much stuff in the front you’re doing it wrong. It’s made for lightweight admin stuff pens, notepad, headphones, keys, gum. Anything heavier than that use the pockets in the main compartment or buy an organizer pouch and keep it in the main compartment
You guys lost your touch, your design becoming kids sunday school each time I want old vanquest with their 1000d cordura here and there, and make 20/24l of katara for god sake
Exciting!
Thanks Nick!!!
Well done! I love all of my Vanquest gear. Actually, I never leave home without my Katara 16.
I lost my Maxpedition Larkspur and decided to upgrade to the Vanquest 4-17. Other than an overuse of Velcro, I love everything about.
Thanks for the feedback!
I love the grey gofer a lot but wish they had a stealth black. One day hopefully
Hello! We appreciate the feedback. Black isn’t out of the question!
@@vanquestgear oh nice can’t wait
Black would be perfect
Yea guys make a black one with a dark silver logo...
Please make an even smaller size. I would love to see a 6 to 10L version of this bag. 🙏
I still use my Tan Envoy and use it every day. You should not have made it so durable, I'd have to buy another one :)
still hesitating between the 12 and 15. Not easy
You did well 👏🏽🙂
Hopefully it will be available in germany someday

This is our urban series messenger option.
@@vanquestgear is it easier to fit a 32oz Nalgene bottle in this one as opposed to the Envoy 13?
Did it fit 13.3 inch laptop?
too bad it can not hold a 16 inch windows laptop, I really liked this one.
Does anyone have the 12 and can fit a 2021 MacBook Air?
Will there be a black version of this bag?
Hi Tim, thanks for asking! We are always open to suggestions and recommendations. Black is not off the table!
When will you sell it in the UK 🇬🇧 ?
We ship internationally and are always looking for international dealers!
@@vanquestgear who is your current retailer in the UK?

@@vanquestgear Not true. It is a design flaw.
@@richardwebb3013 we like providing organization for admin and edc gear. This panel is where we include this. Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks for the feedback! We have tossed the Karata idea around and have it on the list of potential ideas!
Totally agree, please make a 20l Katara!
