This week on Warehouse Hunts we’re looking at a few packs to make carrying all that delectable new gear you’ve bought this season just a little bit easier.

Now, the general rule with backpacks is to buy the biggest bag you think you’ll need under any given circumstances; it’s easier to lug around a larger, half filled bag than to have to leave out potentially crucial supplies to save space. So if you only have the budget for one bag, go big first and then fill out your collection with more specialized bags as you go.

We’re going to follow that process in the episode today, starting with our largest bag: the Maxpedition Vulture-II backpack. This is marketed as a three-day pack, with a 2800 cubic inch – or 46L – capacity. So it has pretty good size and a lot of attachment points for additional Maxpedition packs to help you carry even more gear. It is compatible with most hydration systems out there up to 100 fluid ounces, which is an improvement over the 72 ounces the original Vulture could hold. Other improvements include additional rows of webbing on the front and sides for full MOLLE compatibility.

Next up is the All Hazards Prime Pack from 5.11 Tactical. Definitely a meaner-looking pack overall; there are attachment points all over this thing. It even accepts an ammo mule if you really want to get down to business. It’s about 1000 cubic inches smaller than the Maxpedition pack, just under 1800, but it’s still got a lot of functionality for the size. I’m a big fan of the high-visibility orange linig on the interior, which should help for low-light gear identification.

Finally, on to the most specialized pack, we have the Tactical Rigger Hydration Pack from Geigerrig. This is definitely my favorite of the bunch, but of course I’m more inclined to minimalist day trips, so at just over a pound this thing fits the bill perfectly. It comes with a 70 ounce “hydration engine,” but you can fit up to a 100 ounce “hydration engine.” It’s basically a water carrying pack but you can fit a few snacks in there, and with all the D-rings and attachment points you could always strap it to a larger pack if needed.

So overall, these are three good, different-sized packs to look at if you’re in the market. They have been very popular on our site. You can see more about them by clicking the annotation or the link in the description, and be sure to check back every week for a new episode of Warehouse Hunts.
