Mardingtop Tactical Molle Backpack for Men- 18L 28L EDC Hiking Motorcycle Backpack

I finally bought this after wavering for several weeks, and I am happy I did. Its larger than I thought and has lots of pockets. The straps are padded and comfortable. This is a great bug-out bag, book bag or hiking pack. I can get enough gear in this for an overnighter or a lengthy day hike. I keep seeing this brand, and I am impressed with its quality. Read more

Look, I didn’t plan on falling down a muddy hill, tearing through brambles, and getting chased by an angry turkey—but here we are. And you know what held up better than my dignity? The Mardingtop Tactical Molle Backpack. This beast of a bag is like the Chuck Norris of backpacks—tough, unbothered, and oddly comforting. It’s got more straps and loops than a dominatrix’s wardrobe, and every single one of them is somehow useful. I don’t know what half the Molle webbing is for, but I used it anyway. Strapped on a knife, a water bottle, a pouch of jerky, and at one point, my buddy’s lost glove. Felt like a walking hardware store with emotional damage—and it was glorious. Capacity? Let me put it this way: I packed gear, snacks, ammo, a first-aid kit, a tarp, and two cans of beans—and I still had room to carry home the shame of missing a clean shot at 40 yards. Now, is it perfect? No. The zippers are solid, but if you overstuff this thing like a Thanksgiving turkey, they’ll protest like a rusty gate. And don’t expect waterproofing unless you count “hope” as a sealant. But for the price? You’re getting a rugged, no-nonsense, hunt-ready backpack that looks like it’s seen some stuff—and probably has. If it ever develops consciousness, it’ll have war flashbacks and a smoker’s cough. Bottom line: If you want a backpack that can handle the wild, the woods, and your bad decisions, the Mardingtop Tactical Molle Backpack is your grungy, gear-hauling spirit animal. Rating: 5/5 — would get chased by a turkey again. Read more

OK so I bought a similar backpack by a brand who markets towards skateboarders, sponsors contests, videos etc and has been around for years. I won't name names but they're mainly a watch company and they're named after a disgraced former president. You do the detective company on that one shouldn't be too hard. That backpack was twice as much and the griptape of my skateboard was wearing holes through the material (they bragged about eco friendly materials, in my experience that means NOT DURABLE) This thing shows no wear after multiple uses. I strap my board on and then ride my bike. This has two small loops on the bottom of the backpack that are adjustable straps. What this allows is, after you've strapped in the board, you can run these loops over the bottom wheels, then tighten. This means it's SNUG and doesn't slide around/up and down. SECURES the board. Works with boards as wide as 9.25 inches also! This feels durable, well made, good zippers and you can store a ton of stuff in it. Best part is the side compartments are HUGE like a big fanny pack each. They can each easily accommodate an XBOX or Nintendo Switch Pro controller, for reference. I fit a full sized metal skate tool and wax in there and there's still room for more stuff. Love this bag, would buy again. The color was a little dark compared to most "olive/army" green products but it looks good and I'd highly recommend it. The skateboard backpack market sucks right now. Most bags that strap on boards aren't durable enough or they're tiny or both. Try this if you skate! two weeks in and 5 stars so far, literally zero complaints. Also you can get to almost all the compartments even with the board strapped in! (just not the very front one. that's better than most skate bags! Read more

This backpack - if usage earns even moderately -decent ratings on toughness - seems almost ideal. It's a good purchase already, given it's price point ... It'll be phenomenal if it doesn't fail apart/fail in the.next 6 months of use/abuse. I was looking for a new, non-expensive, well-rated pack to use while riding on-/off-tarmac on my R1200GS. My requirements included being hydration bladder compatible (my 3L fits, no sweat), fitting my 6'2" frame (surprisingly well!), sweet-spot size (not too big or too small) with actually-usable capacity (several effective partitions/compartments), able to carry my tools/water/etc. when I choose to not use my tailbag/panniers, decent zippers (time will tell but they're great initially), Molle attachment points (mounting my IFAK, if needed), and compression straps (to skinny it up/cinch it down when lightly loaded & keep things from shifting around independent of its load). And dual-use (for me) to ride with whatever gear/satellite comms I want on my person and to use for hiking once I get to my camping spots/trailheads. The left *or* right shoulder pass-through channels for the hydration tube is a new-to-me/effective design. Pleased to "discover" the smaller zippered compartments: one for pens/toothbrush/batteries/ibuprofen/tripod in an easy to access spot & the other on the bottom (likely for wet swimsuit, sweaty tshirt?). Unique compression straps that could be used to strap longer items (trekking poles, fishing rod) vertically and bottom straps (sleeping bag/ranger roll) low/laterally. I love the stow-away compartment for the hip belt when it isn't needed! ("First World Problem" solved but nice.) I liked that this bag has pouches on both sides of the bag. (Never quite understood many packs only having one/potentially feeling imbalanced.) Zippered, too, is a plus. i have to see if they can fit a 32 oz Nalgene bottle (like one reviewer said works); not a requirement for me (water bladder), but it'd be a nice option if I want to leave the bladder behind. I should be able to fit my tall MSR fuel bottles, though (camp stove fuel/extra go-juice for my trusty steed). In either case - Nalgene or fuel bottles - if they don't quite fit, it'll be easy to cinch them in/peaking out the top & still be confident they won't fall out. I was slightly disappointed by the weird crackling sounds the bag made when I first un-boxed (-bagged, actually). I was sure it was due to tissue paper, but it was from the questionably-durable internal nylon(?) lining/partitioning material. I hope that quiets down &, more importantly, lasts longer than I currently fear it might. I'll start putting the pack through the torture it's been sentenced to (daily motorcycle commute despite being 20degF today & trail riding this weekend ... eat/sleep/ride/repeat, etc.) & will update my review with how it holds up to the abuse.

My husband loves this backpack. He uses it for all his work belongings. The quality is great with durable zippers. The straps fit comfortably. It has enough compartments for all his gadgets (and he has a lot). Very functional for his needs. Read more
