Honestly I think Yeti did a fantastic job in making it more EDC / less tacticool. However, the biggest issue is that MR took down all EDC lines, and there’s nothing that can replace the classic 3dap CL
Great video. Bag addict here. I actually picked up a black Bozeman after your last video and have been using it the last few days. I have a love hate relationship with the trizip system. I’ve heavily used and abused a 3dap and always kind of felt like it was cramped compared to a true top open or one that opened up all the way. I’m torn on the Bozeman. I’m happy you mentioned the straps being thinner, for me it’s noticeable and pinches. I wonder if I could retrofit a MR strap onto the Bozeman. Good call on the yeti being more springy in structure, to me it makes packing and unpacking a pain and feels more cramped. Other than that yeti did a great job with the material, bottle pockets, and removable straps. I’m getting ready for an international trip and really debating if I want to bring the Bozeman or not. I might just grab my old GR1. The GR1 lacks in features but what it does it does well. Very simple design.
Agree with thin straps being noticeable, I got carruology Cerberus, with futura harness, was hoping for same comfort but it's noticeably inferior to what's on blitz and a2dp. Good new is yes, you can swap the straps, just tried it yesterday.
I hear ya! That GR1 is a classic and will always be a solid choice for international trips. And the feature set on the Bozeman is cool. I hadn't thought of swapping the straps but it could be done.
Thanks JB! The work on your videos really shows. High production value. I’ve been Mystery Ranch fan before it was called Mystery Ranch. lol I love my new Bozeman. I’m taking it to SE Asia in January. My go-to EDC right now.
Interesting that the 2DAP is 1" taller, .5" wider, and 1.25" deeper than the Bozeman, yet they are allegedly the same volume...the math doesn't math, lol. Also, GREATLY appreciate you using the proper terms for PALS webbing and MOLLE attachments! It's a pet peeve of mine when people call it MOLLE webbing, particularly when packs made by retired military also use the wrong terminology.
Pretty much that's what I wanted to confirm... it looked smaller than the 2DAP, which I own. So the Bozeman is closer to the MR Catalyst 26 (with a Futura harness.) Not interested anymore!
@@JBOutside1 how big of a laptop can it hold. Looking at a 15” MacBook Air or 16” MacBook Pro so any bag I get has to accommodate a bigger laptop. I haven’t seen anything listing this. Thanks
Man i was hoping you'd pack same load to both bags to properly demonstrate size difference.. otherwise great thanks.. i think I'll go for it when it becomes available, this is a perfect layout for me and carry system is the gold standard... I'll probably take the traps from a2dp or blitz.. overall, seems like the closest thing to perfection...
Well, I sorta did. In the beginning, the Yeti was packed with 2xTPC8s and the Field Pocket. In the end of the video I load those things into the 2DAP. I wasn't very clear and it wasn't side by side. I need more TPC8s! 😜
Kinda sucks that yeti bought mystery ranch, I hope it goes in a good direction. I was first introduced to mystery ranch while I was a wildland firefighter. Great packs, I’d say I prefer the catalyst 26 or the REI exclusive 2day edc more than the Bozeman.

Awesome! Great choice of a long-haul!

Probably adding the volume of the bottle pockets

You know, it was probably you who schooled me on that long ago! 👊🏻
@ if so, I hope I was nice about it. 🤣
Nice review thanks jb
Any time!
Very nice. Any thoughts on the Bozeman vs Dragon 2.0? Of course the opening is very different, but the size and some features are similar.
thanks for the video! i just got the yeti bozeman and wanted to see where you got your storage cubes from as they look to fit perfect inside?
“nope… nailed it” … LOL 😂
Yes!! Thanks for catching that at the end 😎
