5.11 rush 12. Under $100 on sale often, will last a decade of abuse. Very comfortable.

Bit bigger but the 5.11 Rush 12 (absolutely solid classic edc but it is a molle covered hard as nails military looking bag)

I’ve replaced it with a 5.11 rush 12 v2 and I love it. All my bags are 5.11 and I abuse them.

My 11year old uses my older v1 5.11 rush 12 and it held up all last year and he will be using it again this year.
