Does anyone have any idea how well this might fit a smaller person? Asking for a friend!![]()
that's really the question. i like the orange, for visibility and perk. god knows i do not need more milspec green in my life...
i have several orange mora 2000sIt's very, very bright orange at that. I'm a fan, as a fan of orange. Also, my kids will have little trouble finding me in a crowd, the woods, or supermarket while wearing. Why wear it in a supermarket? No idea, but why not.
Mora kansbol in orange for color reference. The mora is more of a burnt orange. The Becker is very much a hunter orange... it's bright. I've been playing around with how to fit some winter camping kit during some work from home days the past week. It's a good sized pack.

I have read that blue stands out as highly visible to deer. I don’t recall why, but it was based on the photoreceptors in their eyes, as I recall. Just food for thought.i have several orange mora 2000s
in my collection of various BPPs found on the internet, there were a few done up in that crazy neon green ...
that would be awesome.
burnt/hunter orange in the Fall around here, does a good job as camoflage for that time of year
the green is visible, but nothing like "tarp blue" - that color pierces the landscaping...

Good to know!Gus, it's got enough adjustment it might work for you. It helps that the shoulder straps are fully adjustable and can be swapped out if needed. The belt is also removable if needed, but ots got a lot of room for adjustment.
More pics please!
How does everyone who got one like it so far?are the straps comfy?
Good info about the side pocket fitting a 40oz hydro flask, thats the size i use!
Patiently waiting for mine to ship!
Thanks for the review and extra pictures!
I wanted to share the great customer service i have been experiencing with Bongo Gear!
I ordered the pack on the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend and wasn’t expecting it to go out until Tuesday. I got an automated message that same day that it had shipped. I thought it must just be the label that was created and it wouldn’t go out until Tuesday still. Tuesday i got a personal email from the owner that he went out of his way and sent it out the same day i ordered! Amazing!
The tracking hadn’t moved at all by that Friday (6/3) so i sent a message asking if maybe i had the wrong tracking. That same day i got an email that not only did he go down to the UPS store where he had shipped it from, he also checked in with the Post Office it had been sent to. They had told him that because of the holiday it probably hadn’t been scanned yet and would be eventually. Later that day, i got another email that the post office had sent him a note that they had found my package and it had been sitting at the post office the whole time! I was glad to hear it had been found and could start moving. Things like that happen sometimes and i know how busy the post office can be, especially if there is a short week/ holiday.
Today i got another email apologizing for the situation and letting me know when i could expect my package. Which i thought was very nice since it wasn’t his fault at all!
I don’t mean to make it sound like the issues that occurred should be expected when ordering from this company. I just wanted to share this story to highlight what good communication, dedication and customer service Bongo Gear has shown me, even before receiving my purchase! I truly appreciate it.
Issues come up in life, it’s how we handle them that matter!
You might consider one of Goruck’s GR series packs for that. They are offered in several colors, and tend to be rather “slick-sided” with more features hidden inside the main compartment. Not shilling for them. Just occurred to me based on what you say you’re looking for.Ordered one . Received it. Very quickly. bongo gear has their shit together.
What I’m looking for is a bag that has some of the features. But something that you can also move around in an occupied area without drawing too much attention. Might be too much to ask.
I guess I’m looking for a somewhat inconspicuous bug out bag.
Great gear. Fast shipping. I’m just offering an idea. Thanks
