When it comes to backpacks and carrying, you want something that’s going to be the most comfortable and the most efficient. When you’re on the go, the last thing you want to do is waste time rummaging through a bag trying to find your gear. Vanquest has taken care of that with the Trident 31 Backpack. Besides the added comfort to the back by the extra padding, they’ve added a removable waist strap and improved shoulder padding and straps. Shoulder straps are a big thing for me. They need to be comfortable and not slide, and Vanquest has hit that nail on the head.
The first thing I definitely liked was the ability to open the bag from the side. It makes it quick and easy to access the inside without having to take the bag fully off your body. Once opening the inside you will notice that there are four dividers in the main compartment. These make finding your gear even easier and grabbing it quicker and more efficient. There is also a laptop sleeve to protect up to a 17” laptop. And just incase you wanted to know where to store the rest of your stuff, there are 44 compartments and sleeves to store your gear.
There are also plenty of MOLLE panels on either side of the bag, a water-bottle pocket that can also be used for storing a tripod or anything else when used with the included elastic tie down point. Other features include high-visibility nylon interior to help you find your gear and navigate through your pack in low-light conditions. There is also a dual hydration system that allows you to carry up to 6 liters of fluid at once and also allowing a hose to be anchored on either your left or your right shoulder.
This bag is perfect for all your needs whether you’re adventuring on the weekend, a day at the range, work or just for your EDC. These bags are meant to stand up to whatever you can put them through and made as tough as you need them to be.
