   Clean rugged light urban back pack, and probably the best urban backpack I have seen. I carry it daily without fail and it always proves itself worth carrying, whether it be nearly empty or with an extra shirt and raincoat, or some light tools. Build quality is 5+ stars. I would trust it in a light to medium shower for short periods (about 95% of the time this is the case) but not in a typhoon for hours obviously (doesn’t happen often knock on wood). The side pockets can fit the narrow Nalgene water bottles as you can see. Picture of my 9″ boot and headlamp for perspective. If you are going out on a day hike it is perfect. If you are an outdoors person, you might enjoy a larger pack, but then again if you want something light this might just be your first choice. Anything longer and I might consider something more purpose built like the waterproof dry backpacks with a larger volume.

   I own several Maxpedition packs, slings, and bags that accompany me while bicycling, shopping, hiking in the woods, or just hanging out at the local coffee shop. Depending on what I’m doing, I might be carrying a notebook, iPad, books, extra sweater, water, raincoat, lunch, or a dozen other things, and different packs are better for different tasks. The Noatak is great for biking, the Neatfreak for work, and the Versipacks for short hikes and daily carry. Each has advantages and disadvantages. The Versipacks are very convenient on short hikes, but look a bit too “commando” for every day use, and don’t carry well on a bicycle. The Neatfreak is low key, but barely big enough to carry an iPad, charger, and a few pens and pencils. Even though it shares a lot of the military style and features like PALS loops with other legacy Maxpedition packs, the Pygmy Falcon-II doesn’t look out of place in the city. The new Wolf Grey color makes it look more like a piece of luggage and less like commando gear, yet it’s still a good color for blending in when hiking. The interior organization provides plenty of storage for electronic gear, pens, pencils, and books, while still providing enough room for everything I need on a day hike. The two water bottle pockets allow me to carry two or three pints of water externally, and an interior sleeve provides a place to hold a hydration bladder for longer hikes and bicycle trips. The bottom of the pack is a piece of heavy duty waterproof material- a necessity in the wilderness- and there’s plenty of space to attach external pockets and lash on bulky clothing. Most small backpacks cheap out on the details, and have thin shoulder straps that roll under load, but the straps on this pack are firm and wide and comfortable under a heavy load. It looks small, but with a rated capacity of 1100 cubic inches (18 liters) it can carry a lot more than you might expect. It’s a small pack built to the same standards as Maxpedition’s biggest packs, and that alone was enough to convince me to buy it.

   Me encanta esta mochila. La construcción es realmente sólida, aparenta ser pequeña pero le caben muchísimas cosas. Compré esta artículo porque quería una mochila que pudiera llevar a todos lados sin necesidad de tener una específica para el día a día y otra para los recorridos que hago en las montañas y con la Pygmy es justo lo que tengo.

   La cantidad y distribución de los bolsillos es bastante adecuada y bueno, hay tantos videos y reviews de esta mochila que es cuestión de verlos para convencerse de que vale la pena.

   Just the right size for a day pack or airport pack. Holds your drink, umbrella n stuff, plus quality construction.

   Didn’t needs this, wanted it however, but the price was very good, so I pulled the trigger. My 3rd Maxpedition bag, and I have lots of their organisers.
   Can’t go wrong if the price is right.

   Maxpedition Pygmy Falcon-II Backpack – very good quality of material, zippers, handles. Not soaked in medium rain. Comfy feeling while loaded on the back. Keep in mind, Its a small size backpack. Small.

   Tried using it for my everyday bag but I like a more simple looking bag for everyday. But for fishing trips it’s perfect size for all my gear. I can easily tie my smaller poles to the side. All my things stay pretty dry and there’s plenty of space to organize my things. I’ve had it 3 years now and it’s still holding up.

   La mochila es buena como todo lo de la marca, el problema fue que la correa de pecho no venía bien asegurada y la perdí en mi primer salida
