This is the new Eagle Industries Escape & Evasion Bag. I designed this bag at the request of a specific unit who had a need for such equipment based upon their mission profile. It fills the gap between a true discreet design and the other end of the spectrum being "tactical". The premise being enough gear close at hand to deal with the current situation, but "grey" enough to walk away.
The bag features a hidden pistol compartment on the back, main compartment with PALS webbing and divider pocket, GP pouches on each end, and a front accessory compartment with a rapidly deployable cover.
This front cover is what makes the bag unique. Most other "E&E" or "Bug Out Bags" feature pouches on the front which can be readily seen by design. Some have a flap covering these pouches, but that hinders access to the front and inside compartment if you need immediate access to these areas, The pouches are also still visible from the sides of the bag even with the flap engaged.
The Eagle E&E Bag features a three sided zipper surrounding this front attachment section, which is covered in PALS for pouch placement. The flap has a pull tab sewn on each top side for rapid deployment to gain access to the contents/pouches behind it. It is similar in nature to the LE Weapon Fanny Pack. The flap can be secured via a Velcro patch or tied underneath the bag by the lash straps.
The bottom of the pack has adjustable/removeable lash straps for placement of clothing, additonal gear, or added security of the front flap.
Each side has a General Purpose Pouch which will hold a 1QT Canteen, 32oz Nalgene Bottle, Med Kit, etc.
The backside of the bag features a hidden pistol compartment. The elastic loop holster can be placed anywhere in this section and set up for right or left handed access.
Part Number: EE-MS-LE
Colors: Black, Ranger Green, Khaki, and Grey
Retail Pricing: $153.78
