Love The Bag But One Flaw

This bag is awesome. My only complaint is that my aluminum water bottle on several occasions has slipped out of the side pocket even though I have tightened the strap, its an average 24oz bottle, so in that regard it is not safe compartment unless you're okay with dents. I have no issues with the bottle holder with my Jester or Borealis both bags I have owned in the past.

Love New Recon

I wasn't sure if I would like the new Recon but I love it! I like how it is nice and tidy without showing everything I have in my mesh pocket. It's easy and accessible and has 3 zippers for a lot of organizing.
