Review on Watson Coyote Lumbar Chest with Enhanced Safety Features by Troy Robinson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Watson is a really well made and very useful package. Very impressive!

Watson is a great little backpack. The construction is very strong, high density Cordura and the zippers are as smooth and strong as nails. The body strap is very comfortable and can be easily moved from the right side to the left side. I was initially a bit skeptical about the usefulness of a single strap, but being able to move the entire pack and reach into pockets on the go is very convenient. The backpack has enough space for everyday carry and enough compartments to store everything I need, plus a little extra space for flexibility. . The pen/pencil holders are too short to comfortably accommodate regular pens, meaning you'll likely need the "short" versions (Pilot and Zebra make some) and other sections that are slightly smaller than mine. liked it too. They can hold things like a pocket comb or a small knife, but probably not anything like your average multi-tool. That being said, there are other ways to house these types of items, from water bottle pockets to a small hook and secure pockets on the outside. compatible, which I have not found. For hydration, I use a 2.0L Hydrapak reservoir in my iPad case. I thread the tubing between the two zippers at the top (under the compression strap), through the canvas loop at the top of the strap, and under the Velcro next to the buckle. It works great and the velcro serves as a very good way to secure the hose when you're moving and then quickly release it when you get more comfortable. I am very excited to try other Hazard 4 products in the future. EDIT --- I tested my Swisstool RS (4.5"H x 1.25"W x 0.75"D) and I can fit it into the admin of a smaller zip code. So I think that these are just regular buttons that are too long.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Negative
