Hi Danny, found this old review for you! Does Ogio bags stand up to the rest of the competition these days in your opinion? And have you seen or reviews the Ogio renegade? Appreciate your feedback.
I had that Recycled Firefighter backpack and it was awful. I bought it because I wanted something low profile and slick looking but the functionality was terrible. Good materials and well constructed but the back panel was thin and flimsy the shoulder straps were too thin as well always slid off my shoulders and had no molle or a slot for water. The worst was the front pocket which had no gusset so it was flat and when the bag was full you could only get an envelope in. Go ruck has the same issue with the pockets.
Great review; I’m totally intrigued by this pack now. Can you tell me if it stands up on it’s own, and also, do you think a 32oz Hydroflask would fit in the side bottle pocket? Also, does this pack hold more than the Able Carry Daily pack?
@@eddie_bee I did not! I got this backpack though but returned it. The water bottle pocket was too small! I got the Pace 25 backpack instead and has more storage and space which fits my 32oz hydro flask.
@@xjimmybean thanks for the information I've been researching backpacks for weeks now. Sucks that none of this companies actually show the interior or mention specs that actually matter to people.
Thank you for watching! I was able to fit the larger compressible packing cube I use and a Dopp kit (Aer Dopp kit) in the main area but not an additional packing cube. Hope that helps a bit and please let me know if there are any additional questions I can help answer about the bag!:)
So cool that i clicked on this video because coincidentally I ordered that same orca molle pack and a 525 convoy so i'm assuming it'll look almost identical
Thank you for watching! and that's great to hear that you were able to get the orca pouch, its a great accessory to combine with this bag! I imagine it will work really well with the 525, I have used it a lot with my Goruck GR2 which is also a larger bag and it looks good =)
Thank you for watching! I think that might be just a little too big for the pockets on this. Hope that helps a bit and please let me know if there are any additional questions I can help answer about the bag!:)
Thank you for watching and good question! I havent tested it out with a bottle that big, but i think that might be a little too big for the pocket. You may be able to squeeze it in but i think it would be really tight and would likely start to take up some of the space from the main area of the bag. Hope that helps a bit and please let me know if there are any additional questions I can help answer about the bag! =)
This is the only really good, thorough and completed review og this bag. Bought it because of this and i'm so satisfied 😁
Thank you for watching and for the positive feedback! I’m glad the video was helpful and that you are enjoying the bag a lot!:)
If Ogio makes all the zips aquagaurd and use the red liner for all their compartments it will take this bag to whole other level!
Thank you for watching and great point! It would definitely have been great to see a similar layout all throughout the bag!:)
This bag looks amazing. So versatile. It's sporty and slim line.
Thank you for watching and totally agree! The works so well in any environment!:)
This is a thorough, thoughtful review. Thank you!

no one ever seems to comment if the bags will stand up on their own or not. which is a bummer
Did you ever find out if it fits a 32oz Hydro Flask? I have the exact same concern!
@@xjimmybean did you ever get an answer on the 32oz?
@@eddie_bee I did not! I got this backpack though but returned it. The water bottle pocket was too small! I got the Pace 25 backpack instead and has more storage and space which fits my 32oz hydro flask.

is it possible to slot a lenovo legion slim 7 15.6" in the laptop compartment? TIA!
Thank you for watching! I havent had a chance to use that laptop but based off the size I think it would be able to fit ok
In the main compartment were you able to fit the packing cubes stuff you feature in a lot of your videos

Quick question. Would the water bottle section hold a wide mouth hydroflask?

Great review. Thanks

How many litres is this bag? Are all the ogio alpha recon bags 20l?
Thank you for watching! This one is about 20l but I believe there is a 25l version as well
Hi, is the sternum strap removable? Thanks!
Thank you for watching and yes you can remove the sternum strap :)
Like number 💯
Thank you for watching and for the support!:)
Do the water bottle pockets fit a 1L camelback?
Thank you for watching and good question! I havent tested it out with a bottle that big, but i think that might be a little too big for the pocket. You may be able to squeeze it in but i think it would be really tight and would likely start to take up some of the space from the main area of the bag.

I liked the look but not anymore since he called it "tactical"
