Top down you can see that all the zippers have a paracord pull attached to them for ease of use. All zippers are YKK Zippers for durability and reliability.
The right side has a medium sized zippered pocket, velcro ID pocket, and 4 slot velcro covered pen holders. Inside the medium sized zipper pocket are 2 pockets where you can separate your many gadgets…or ammo.
The left side has 2 small sized zippered pockets.
The front has 2 loops on the top which can hold a long flashlight or as for me, an umbrella.
The main compartment is closed by a velcro flap with double zippers.
The front compartment has many pockets to hold documents, pens, chargers, cell phones, etc.
Outside the back compartment is another velcro spot for accessory attachments.
Inside the back compartment are 2 medium pockets and a larger pocket.
The main compartment is padded #AS-100 high grade closed-cell foam padding material for superior shock protection.
There are pockets on both sides of the main compartment.
Maxpedition also included a removable stiff panel which can be used for cord management or as a handgun holster.
The Multi Purpose Bag by itself is pretty light but it gets quite heavy after you fill it up. I recently used this bag as my travel carry-on for my business trip. All I can say is that this bag is like a black hole. It can hold so much in such a reasonably sized bag. I carried a laptop, a tablet, cell phone, 3 magazines, a hard covered research book, 2 notepads, a few folders, chargers, sync cables, snacks, pens, digital camera, and a few other smaller items. It was organized and easily accessible. Only thing is that this bag is not TSA certified. So I had to take my laptop and tablet out to go through the x-ray scanner.
Maxpedition’s Multi Purpose Bag costs $139.99 direct and comes in 5 colors (black, OD green, khaki, foliage green, and orange foliage). I think it’s worth it for any techie or marine in need of an extremely reliable and durable Multi Purpose Bag.

This stuff is rock solid and VERY water resistant! I’ve filled 3 of my maxpedition bags (versi jumbo/gear slinger/condor) and tossed them around the courtyard for hours as part of cardio/worn them in foul weather and traveled to foreign countries with no failure or compromise. can’t go wrong with mil-spec standardized kit! it will cost you for quality regardless!
my only problem with these things (and I own about 6 various Maxpedition products) is the stiffness of the material. until it wears out they’re rigid as hell. also, the inner velcro patches are hard – it can be a bit painful to dive a hand into a pocket and catch the edge of a velcro under a fingernail…
Is it really fair to count against the bag that “it’s heavy when filled”? That’s a function of how much you put in it, rather than how it’s made or how it performs.
