Mystery Ranch Unisex Urban Assault 21 Backpack

Product Information

The Urban Assault 24 is an upgraded version of the popular Urban Assault 21. Along with the signature 3-Zip design, it adds more capacity, a direct-access laptop sleave, oodles more organization and external water bottle holsters. This is the unique part of the Urban Assault. The 3-ZIP design means you can open just the top or zip down the whole bag like a duffel. And then there’s the capacity – something that is very individual. Is 21 liters enough for your everyday activities?Will everything you carry around on a daily basis fit into the Urban Assault? Or maybe is it too much. One addition that you don’t see on the UA24 is the line of PALS webbing located on the bottom of the UA21. You can clip carabiners here or attach other MOLLE accessories if desired. And like we mentioned earlier, those nylon loop zipper tabs do have an opening in the middle if you want to clip anything through those.

The main compartment is also pretty spacious. With a capacity of 21 liters, there’s definitely enough space for all your everyday necessities. Or even some clothes for a weekend getaway. Laptop And Tablet Sleeves It would also be great to have a hydration hose pass through on this bag, making it even more versatile. The external laptop access, if done correctly, could double as this as well. But this wold then make the bag a gimme for EDC and Day Hikes. I am not 100% sure if this is an intentional design feature (Mystery Ranch does not mention it anywhere), but it certainly is a useful one. The ability to attach a water bottle to the shoulder strap and always have easy access to it suddenly makes this a great option for hiking. This is still true, but I could have taken it further. Because that undersells this bag. What I Liked Second Time Around We’ve still been comfortable enough keeping our laptop inside as is, given the support from the frame sheet and the significant suspension of the sleeve from the bottom of the bag. The laptop compartment has a nice false bottom. Both of these features keep our tech protected when it’s getting shuffled around on our commute or if (when) we accidentally drop it.

And it is also removable– a good option to have if you don’t actually like sternum straps. You’re okay without it if you’re going to school or work. And the reason I did this is because I might have underrated the Urban Assault 21 initially — this bag is stealthy good.

But is it so good that it’s worth the triple-digit price tag? In this Mystery Ranch Urban Assault 21 review, we are going to find out! It carries weight great up to 7,5kg or more if you go shopping after work with a loptop and accessories.The Urban Assault 24 makes a light and nimble “go bag.” It sits high and snug and there is no need for a hip belt. Useless fact of the day: 1 Denier is based on the weight of a 9km(5.59 mi) long strand of natural silk.
