Prepared Citizen Classic v2.0 (Wolf Gray), Large

I’ve been using the Maxpedition backpack for several months now, and it has far exceeded my expectations. The build quality is absolutely outstanding—constructed with rugged materials that hold up to daily wear and tear while remaining surprisingly lightweight. Whether I’m on a weekend hike, traveling, or commuting, this backpack delivers unmatched comfort and versatility. The storage compartments are well thought-out, with ample space for organization without feeling bulky. I especially appreciate the multiple pockets and MOLLE webbing, which allow for customization and expansion. The zippers are heavy-duty and glide smoothly, and the stitching is reinforced in all the right places. What truly stands out is the comfort. The padded shoulder straps and back panel make carrying heavier loads a breeze, even during extended use. It’s clear Maxpedition designed this with durability and user experience in mind. If you’re looking for a backpack that can handle anything you throw at it while staying sleek and functional, this is it. Worth every penny—five stars without hesitation!

Very discreet and gray man style backpack. I carry this bag to work everyday with all my EDC and work material. Super durable in a any weather and the zippers are very high quality. The blue color isn't very bright which is awesome so it doesn't attract too much attention. Straps are very comfortable. My only complaint if you'd call it that was that the main compartment doesn't have small pockets or mesh pockets. But overall I'm happy with this pack. I've always loved Maxpedition and it's products and own many of them. This will definitely be my EDC for awhile.

Really well made, nice simple design. Like the fact that it has a separate section to conceal carry.

Just got this pack, and so far I’m impressed. I’ve had the 5.11 Covrt Boxpack for a year now, and thought I’d try something different. I chose this because it looks even more “average” than the 5.11, kinda like a Jansport pack. It has better organization than the 5.11, where everything would just slide around. I wanted something minimalistic, but that had the right amount of storage for all of my gear. The quality seems very durable, but will require some breaking in, as it is very stiff out of the box. The ONLY knock I have so far, but was expected before purchasing, was the location of the concealed carry area. In my 5.11, it was located on the front side of the pack, away from the back. With this pack, it’s located right on your backside. This is a great feature as far as keeping the weapon close to you, but you sacrifice comfort for security, as there is a weapon poking you in the back. I had this issue with a Vertx pack, that I quickly exchanged for the 5.11. I’ve coped with this by placing it on the lower part of the pack, to help form with the curvature of my back. Since this doesn’t have a very sturdy back panel, it’s easier to deal with than the Vertx. I knew this going in, so it’s something that I’ll get accustomed to. I also carry a full size handgun (not pictured), so the size and width does contribute to this issue. You always relinquish some comfort when you conceal carry, so this pack still gets 5 stars. I’ll try to given an updated review to this pack, once I spend some more time with it. I would definitely give this a try if this is your first concealed carry pack, the price is well worth it!

A Maxpedition manufactured backpack designed for CCP carry and ingenious storage with a capacity of 1360 cu. in. Well thought out and will probably outlast (me) or the original owner in most cases. Included are Velcro strips to keep things close and handy. Smaller calibers are ideal, you'll forget you have protection until you need it. Enough room for a larger carry. One of the colors are always on discount. You won't go wrong. It's a Maxpedition product.

I like the Material, seems very rugged and durable. The Concealment Area where you can Velcro Pouches/Holders and other items is great and discreet. Overall rating 4/5 Two things I think can be improved, is on the Zipper for each one on the Backpack, the Size of the Handle to pull the Zipper should be Rubber or another Material and Much Larger, the small cord zippers can get overlapped by the Material and you have to get it out, and not having a Larger Tab on the Zipper to pull with more surface area and “force” makes it harder to open said compartment. My only other suggestions that I think would drastically conclude is Modularity would be for above where you’d be a Laptop/Plate, or Notebook for there to be an area like in the Concealment Area where you can Velcro Pen Holder, Flashlight Holder or whatever you decide. Also as far as the external park of the Backpack, I think if they put Buckles/Straps on each side of the Backpack to tighten/less the Volume/Bulky or how big the Backpack is would be a great idea. It could not only be used for that but also arranged as a Drink Holder by Tightening it down, and or Holder Other Items. These are all things that could improve this backpack a tremendous amount IMO, and make it more modular for the Customer for just a few dollars.

I really like Maxpedition. I bought my daughter a duffel bag about 6 years ago. She used it all through High School and is now still using it in college. So when my 5th grad elementary school student started tearing up store bought backpacks in less than 1 a month. I went back to Maxpedition. It is a great backpack, not one scratch after several months even though I think he's dragged them home instead of carrying them. Now I want another for myself for work & travel. Update October 2023... the zipper finally gave out, but still... This is the longest lasting backpack I've encountered. I will try & get it fixed (only has a few scuff marks on the bottom). But I did replace with a different cheap one in the meantime only because my kid missed having a water bottle holder.

Unglaublich guter Rucksack.

La calidad de los materiales es muy buena, como la mayoría de los productos de esta marca, se ve muy resistente y de buen tamaño, no es tan grande ni tan pequeña, ideal para el día a día

Je le voyais plus petit un peu du genre des sacs Eastpak, mais il est très confortable et assez grand pour mettre mon ordinateur dedans ainsi que mes clavier souris et autres matériels informatique

Great little backpack, good quality, worth the price

Perfekter Stauraum, Qualität wie immer spitze.
