SeibertronFalcon Water Repellent Hiking Camping Backpack Compact Pack Summit Bag (Black 37L)

GREAT mid-size backpack! The description and the photo do not do this pack justice in the least. There is a lot more to this pack than the pictures and description tell. The fabric is thick. Zippers are good quality with actual paracord pulls. Stitching is solid. Im very pleased with this pack so far and would definitely buy again. I purchased the 37L with 2 detachable side packs. I am going to attach the side packs the the roll bar of my Jeep Wrangler using the MOLLE loops on the back for additional storage, recovery gear, etc.Im a full time engineering student so the books I carry are pretty large in addition to my laptop and 1.5" binders I carry daily. I was really surprised and glad to see that my laptop in is protective case fit like a glove in the main pocket. I redid a few of the straps through the buckles in a different way to prevent them from slipping and also rolled and electrical tapped all of the loose extra strapping so its not dangling everywhere and getting caught on things. Should straps are right on the verge of needing more padding but they're still comfortable. The back padding is good and I couldn't feel the outline of the handgun I placed in there for testing.I was on the verge of getting another very similar and very reputable pack that is sold for ~$140 but Im glad I pulled the trigger on this one. Excellent pack!You wont be upset with this pack. Go ahead and hit that "Buy now with 1-Click"! Ill let my pictures do the rest of the talking for me.

TL;DR, It's a very well-made clone of the Maxpedition Falcon II that costs significantly less with drawbacks that will likely never effect the lives of users in civilian use who are looking for a better deal on this type of backpack. (37L Variant)I was initially very cautious of ordering this bag, Seibertron was not a familiar name and doesn't offer many other products. I decided to pull the trigger on this bag for it's water-proof claims (I'll explain later in this review) and MOLLE webbing. I bought the 37L bag for roughly 50$ USD and am absolutely amazed with the quality compared to the much more expensive Maxpedition Falcon II which is priced at roughly 3x to 4x the price I payed for this Seibertron clone of Maxpedition's offering. Now let's get one thing out of the way immediately: I am a college student, and I use this bag for carrying my books, papers, and some computer equipment around campus, I also use the bag when I go hiking and biking. I don't carry a very heavy load so I can't speak for the ruggedness, but I've had no issues with wear, and every sewn seam is nearly perfect on my bag. Every strap is of equal length and sewn at the end (There is one exception, explained later) and there is plenty of slack for adjusting each strap for your load. The waist strap is not padded, but very accepting of wider waists, I am a waist size 38 (Mens) and the waist strap was comfortable at the default length. The D-rings on the shoulder straps are plastic, but of seemingly high quality. And, yes, the flag patch does come with the bag.There's only 2 complaints I have with this backpack, and neither are important enough for me to rate this bag less than 5/5, which are the MOLLE design is not perfect throughout the bag, especially around the Seibertron logo. The logo is sewn into the bag leaving no space between it and the actual back pocket, so you cannot run anything through the logo section, and the webbing is NOT sewn in exactly 1.5 inch spacings. For my particular bag this only applies to the MOLLE webbing on the back pocket, the webbing along the sides of the bag, and everywhere else, are proper MOLLE design. My other complain is very minor, the adjustable strap for the backpack shoulder straps are NOT sewn at the ends, and can completely remove themselves from the plastic tension lock, on first trying on the bag I accidentally loosened these straps to the point of removing them from the tension lock and the bag falling of my back. I re-threaded both straps through the tension locks and have tested to ensure I cannot loosen them without doing so intentionally. I cannot say for sure that these straps were put into the tension lock backwards initially, but there are very sturdy after setting them up myself. Another, very minor, complain is that there's a small zippered pocket in the main compartment of the bag that is completely flat and sits between the main compartment and the wearer's back. If you attempt to use this zippered pocket for anything it may prod into your back unless there is space in the main compartment for the bulge, in exchange it does make a good compartment to add some light padding for your upper back.Overall I am blown away with the quality and price of this backpack, It's extremely versatile with the MOLLE webbing, and my bag is absolutely water-proof. I was walking around a park with some gear in my backpack as a flash flood hit, I spent nearly 10 minutes trekking to my vehicle on higher ground as it poured down rain, I was absolutely soaked from head to toe when I made it to my vehicle, as was the backpack. I feared my laptop and other water-sensitive gear was potentially damaged but when I opened the bag the only water inside was a couple drops from my arm as I pulled the zipper open. Absolutely astounding. I cannot recommend a better backpack at this price for anyone interested in this type of bag,

*Quick note- this product is actually a bit darker in person than appears in the stock photos****UPDATE 7/22/17: Still going strong! I've noticed that the straps have faded a bit with UV exposure. When I made some adjustments to the shoulder straps, and moved the elastic keeper-sleeves, there was a shadow where those elastic bands had been sitting. No complaints at all, and I'd rather have a pack that looks "used" as opposed to a brand new shiny one. Happy to report that there are no signs of seams separating, no buckle or strap malfunctions, and no zipper kinks. I love this pack! The ONLY thing I could make mention of is the slight degradation of the interior "lining", which seems to be a thin, clear, rubbery coating. On the more "worked" areas (corners, etc) it is flaking apart. If this is what makes the pack "waterproof", then it won't be any longer. But I didn't buy this to be fully waterproof- I have specialized products for keeping things 100% dry if necessary. This will still hold off some light rain and the occasional splash, though. I remain shocked and impressed by the value of this pack!*UPDATE 6/27/16: I've owned this pack for a few months now and it has been around the country and used almost daily. There isn't one sign of this falling apart; No broken stitches, no rips, no wear spots, no broken buckles or zippers. This is the quality pack that I was hoping for! One thing I've noticed is that a couple of the MOLLE sections are sewn too tightly to fit an attachment strap through. With some effort I've been able to get a strap through those tighter sections, but it isn't easy. Overall I'm thoroughly impressed with this pack and have had several friends purchase this pack too, all of whom are happy as well!After messing with a cheaper version of this pack (from a reputable manufacturer- NCstar) and being severely disappointed, I can directly compare and say that this is the one you want! Don't fall for the cheaper versions- spend the few extra bucks on this one and you will not be disappointed! If you bought a cheap one and this one at the same time, held them both in your hands, side-by-side, you'd never choose the cheaper ones. This feels stronger/heavier duty and I have no doubt will actually last. To replace the cheap version I bought, I was considering this pack and the similar one made by Maxpedition. I couldn't see spending over $130 for a pack of this size, and I'm glad I didn't. This is THE ONE! Of course I will update if things go south, but I don't see that happening. A couple quick comparison notes:- The outer material (denier) is heavier on this one than competitors- The webbing is more tightly woven (stronger) than the competitors- There is no cheap rubber coating to crack/fall apart on the inside of this one (like the competitors)- Stitching is very secure- Internal pockets are of higher quality than the cheaper ones.

Cercavo uno zaino di tipo tattico per attività quali escursionismo e viaggi di qualche giorno e la mia scelta, dopo una lunga ricerca, è ricaduta su questo prodotto.Questo zaino è davvero bello: bello alla vista, bello per la presenza di vari scompartimenti, bello perché ha un sistema MOLLE che lo rende ampliabile e tutto ciò è accompagnato da materiali veramente buoni e un assemblaggio di essi davvero ottimale.Il design è di tipo tattico, presenti le cinghie aggiuntive per una maggiore tenuta dello zaino alla schiena.Le tasche sono molte e si trovano in punti davvero ottimali per il trasporto degli oggetti più disparati.Ho preso la versione da 27 l e sono molto soddisfatto, si capisce da subito che si ha davanti un ottimo prodotto. Rapporto qualità prezzo corretto.Allego delle foto.Spero che la mia recensione ti sia stata d'aiuto, se così fosse lascia pure un voto utile, grazie mille!

Wie immer, wenn man ein relativ günstiges Produkt kauft, was hoch angepriesen wird machte sich auch bei mir die Skepsis breit.Für die Lesefaulen: Gern runterscrollen, da gibts ne Zusammenfassung mit Pro und Contra :)Kurzer Hand gekauft weil ich keinen 100 Euro Rucksack wollte aber dennoch einen für Outdoor und Trekking Touren brauchte.Der Rucksack ist sehr schnell angekommen. Habe ihn ausgepackt und erstmal das USA Patch abgerissen, das braucht ja nun kein Mensch. Aber ist Geschmackssache.Auf den ersten Blick macht der Rucksack einen guten Eindruck. Die meisten Rucksäcke in dem Preissegment fallen schon beim Angucken vor Schlaffheit zusammen. Aber der Seibertron steht auch ohne Inhalt ganz gut da.Das erste was auffällt sind die vielen Fächer. Er hat vorne ein kleines, in dem ich Beispielsweise mein erste Hilfe Set lagere. es passt perfekt. Dann darüber ein ganz kleines, in welchem kleine Dinge verstaut werden können. Ich lagere dort z.b. Feuerzeuge, Feuerstähle und Kleinkram. Und in der Mitte ein mittleres inkl. kleinen Organizer Fächern. Diese Fächer bieten Platz für z.B. ein Mobiltelefon, ein Schweizer Taschenmesser oder etwas anderes was diese Größe hat. Das hintere Fach ist sehr groß. Es bietet auf der Vorderseite ein Netz, in dem noch andere Dinge verstaut werden können. Auf der Rückseite des Fachs ist eine etwa handbreite Tasche, mit Reißverschluss. Kann also "verschlossen" werden.Auf der Rückseite des Rucksacks (Da wo der eigene Rücken anliegt) befindet sich ein längliches Fach. Es ist meiner Meinung nach für eine Trinkblase gedacht.Der Tragekomfort des Rucksacks ist super. Er ist schön geformt und macht auch bei langem Tragen keine Probleme.An dem Rucksack befinden sich überall Molle Schlaufen, falls man dort noch etwas fest machen möchte. Die Tragegurte sind vorne jeweils mit einem D Ring ausgestattet, was das befestigen von an Karabinern hängender Ausrüstung ermöglicht. Seitlich befinden sich jeweils 2 Riemen um den Seibertron zu erweitern. Die Erweiterungspacks bekommt man ebenfalls bei Amazon. Ich nutze sie allerdings um dort einen Schlafsack und eine Isomatte einzuspannen.Das klappt mit etwas Geschick super.Bisher habe ich den Rucksack bis ca 10 Kg belastet und muss sagen, dass es ihm nicht geschadet hat. Desweiteren hat der Rucksack zur besseren Stabilisation und Entlastung einen Brust und Bauchgurt. Das merkt man auch sofort. Was mich persönlich gestört hat war die geringe Farbauswahl. Man kann nur zwischen Schwarz und Khaki wählen. Ich hätte mir wenigstens gern noch Oliv oder Desert gewünscht.Pro+ Robuste Bauweise, fällt nicht zusammen+ Viele Fächer, daher besser zu organisieren+ Fach für Trinkblase+ Molle System+ Seitliche Riemen ermöglichen Erweiterung oder Festmachen eines Schlafsack / Isomatte+ Brust und Bauchgurt zur besseren EntlastungContra- Geringe Farbauswahl (Schwarz und Khaki)FazitIch bin mit dem Rucksack sehr zufrieden. Er begleitet mich auf 2-3 Tägige Camping und Outdoor Touren und ist auch mein Tagesrucksack für Arbeit und Alltag. Preis/Leistungstechnisch n absoluter Knaller. Günstiger bekommt man meiner Meinung nach nur Gebrauchtware.

I needed a backpack that could fit everything I need on a day at work (I spend all day out walking on site on my own so I need to carry anything I may need for at least 6-7 hours) and to be a good fit to use on my motorbike so I was initially looking at more expensive bike packs, but I decided to give the Seibertron Falcon a chance and I am glad I did, so far it is holding up really well and has fit everything I need to carry with plenty of space for more.It has plenty of pockets, organization and even the option to add more via the MOLLE system. I bought the one with the extra side bags but haven't used them yet although they have quite a bit of space in them, but I mostly just needed bottle bags attached as I usually have a bottle of pop and a water bottle on me for work.The bag is well made and appears strong and sturdy, and I didn't find any issues with stitching or anything. It also feels really light and steady on my back (once you get the straps setup right) while on the bike which was a bit of an issue I had with my last backpack.I haven't tested the waterproof claim yet and I agree with others that while the material may be waterproof the zips are not, although I do have a waterproof cover that fits over it nicely for heavier rain so this is not an issue for me really.

Use it for Airsoft but have also started using it for family outings.Compact yet with the many useful pockets you can still carry loads.The shoulder straps have so much length to them that it would take a seriously tall or broad person to run out of room. Pack hangs nicely away from the neck and you don’t feel it even after carrying kit for hours.The tightening strap reduces the width down nicely too cutting down any bulk and stopping kit from rattling. Definitely recommend, one of the best kit bags I’ve bought and I’ve used seriously expensive ones.

I've found some of Seibertron products to not be entirely to my liking, some are obviously designed with smaller people in mind. Not a bad thing in itself but very frustrating at times.The 37l version of this bag is not one of those times. I come back to Seibertron because they have good customer service and their build quality is usually pretty good for the price.It's big enough to get in everything you need (two laptops, four notebooks and an ergonomic keyboard in mine with space to spare). It's got decent compression straps so if you don't overload like me you can keep it all from moving. The straps also have buckles so you can unclip and open the bag fully.The strap on the top has proven ideal for holding my coat when I take it off too.More than happy with this bag :)
