Using this waist strap, you can ensure that weight is evenly distributed between your back and your waist. There is also a waist strap that you can use to stabilize the backpack as you walk. This means that your shoulder straps will be nice and cozy on top of your shoulders without applying too much pressure when the backpack is full. These straps are wider than those of a regular backpack and provide double the padding. The Falcon II comes with 2.5-inch wide padded shoulder straps. It is suggested that you use a CamelBak hydration bladder, but most aftermarket hydration bladders will do.

The hydration bladder is sold separately. This is double the amount of water from hydration bladders that most backpacks can actually hold. Unlike the vast majority of the backpacks on the market, the Falcon II accommodates two 3 liter water reservoirs. This is pretty standard for a medium-sized backpack for 2-3 days worth of hiking. In fact, the volume capacity of this backpack is 25 liters. This is the reason why most people say that although the Falcon II is thought to be a smaller-sized backpack, it does hold a lot of gear. It is useful to note that these compartments are very deep. And at the very front of the backpack is a top and bottom compartment. In front of this main compartment is a middle compartment that has plenty of room as well. First, there is a main compartment that measures 18 x 9.5 x 4.75 inches. There are many pockets and attachments on the Falcon II backpack. This is simply an all-around high-quality backpack. The coating on the thick nylon is made to be water-resistant and abrasion-proof. One of the reasons why many customers enjoy the Maxpedition line is the fact that the backpacks are made with highly durable materials. These pouches can be purchased separately on Amazon, which is not required to get full use of the Falcon II. The PALS webbing allows you to attach MOLLE and ALICE pouches, such as first aid kits and extra compartments. It is very similar to the Maxpedition Condor II in that it has plenty of PALS attachments.Ĭompared to other backpacks this size, it has twice the amount of PALS attachments and twice the amount of space. This Maxpedition Falcon II review is a military-style backpack that is highly durable with plenty of pockets.
