Three Day Pass - Black

I've been using the Three Day Pass backpack as a daily commuter and as a carryon for all my air travel since 2013, and for thirteen years it's lasted through thick and thin. At long last, one of the straps is starting to fray at the edge of its top attachment point, and the material at the bottom of the bag is starting to wear through - there are even a couple of tiny holes. The zippers, pockets, sides and top handle are like new. I have used other backpacks for specific purposes over the years, but nothing comes close to the perfect blend of size, toughness and functionality as this one. Another reviewer suggested that SOC add a dedicated water bottle pouch, better padded removable hip straps, and a smaller top compartment near the top handle for small frequently used items like keys and earbuds. I think these are great suggestions. I would also add thicker padding to the bottom of the bag, since that is the only thing that has worn out on mine and I carry my laptop and family ipads in it. It's a dependable and beloved bag for a reason! I'm getting another. It's a shame the forest green color appears to be no longer available.

I bought this backpack at the beginning of 2020, I've had it for going on 5 years now. I have used it extensively in many settings and it has been perfect. Strong, durable and tons of storage space. Get one and forget about buying another!

I’ve had this bag since 2012 when I first started middle school and I gotta say this thing keeps on kicking. From the public school system of middle and high school, to the use and abuse of college classes, working in the construction industry on-site, vacations and day trips, to several hurricanes and natural disasters, this thing cannot and will not kick the bucket.

I love the size and the compartments. The material is strong and only the straps show signs of wear after 13 years of use. This is my go-to EDC/BOB and has served me well

The only reason I came to the website was to write a positive review because this is really the only bag you’ll ever need. Please keep making great products

I have been ready to buy a new backpack for about five years, not because there is something wrong with this bag, but because I just felt like 7+ years with the same backpack is enough? But I guess not? This thing refuses to die. It's gone from the flight line in Japan to college back in the US to every day use for over a decade and there is little sign of wear. The build quality is excellent. I just wish I had the receipt of when I bought this bag so I could show you all.

I haven’t got the chance to fully use it but this has all the space needed for my specific needs. These are worth what for the price so don’t really look at cost look as an investment. Also, I would highly recommend these to anyone needing a bugout bag or even for everyday use.
