What we liked about the Big Bop.
- The bag is rugged enough for outdoor use, but subdued enough for urban environments.
- The gusseted construction allows for more than 3.5L of capacity.
- The bag’s shape and patterning allows for easier access to gear, compared to crossbody slings.
- Strap and buckle placement allow for a comfortable dual-carry with a larger backpack.
- The pack is a 100% dangle-free carry experience.
What we disliked about the Big Bop.
While we didn’t dislike much about the Mystery Ranch Big Bip, we would like to see a few tweaks on a future revision:
The MOLLE attachment system needs snaps to be added for lashing stability. Changing to a magnetic rather than VELCRO closure for the front pocket would increase ease-of-access and overall longevity.
Adding a keyring hook in the front pocket would increase organizational points.
Making the branding more subtle would increase style points.
