I’ve been using this backpack every day for over a year and I’m very happy with it. It works great, and the only small downside is that the mesh pockets in the main compartment make it a bit harder to put things in, for example groceries. I can recommend it without hesitation.
Brandit US Cooper Backpack 40 l - wz.93 Pantera PL Woodland

Camouflage wz.93 "Pantera"
The wz.93 "Pantera" camouflage pattern is currently used by the Polish Armed Forces. It was the first camouflage pattern designed and introduced into widespread use in the Third Polish Repubic. The 1993 pattern combines mimetic and deforming properties through the use of irregular spots of various sizes. The color scheme, based on green, brown, and black, has been adapted to the conditions of Polish forests, making "Pantera" a good choice for operations in the native terrain. Uniforms in this camouflage pattern are also part of the basic equipment for students of Military Uniform Classes.

I have been using this backpack for over two years, carrying it to work almost every day. At this price, it’s a very practical and well-designed model, especially in terms of compartments and organizers. The only drawback for me is the zippers – you have to be careful with them, especially when the backpack is overloaded and the zipper bends at the corners; I have already had to sew them back twice. Fortunately, this is easy to fix by yourself. Despite these shortcomings, for this price, this backpack definitely deserves attention.
-
I’m delighted with this backpack. It’s of excellent quality, laser-cut, and the material and zippers are high quality. It has enough compartments, even for a tablet or laptop. It’s worth highlighting that it includes chest and waist support, something that the various “bigger-name” brands don’t have. Without a doubt, it’s a backpack I would buy again.
-
My only regret is that I didn’t buy it sooner! I was looking for a backpack for commuting to work that would fit all my food containers, where I wouldn’t have to store my official documents in the same compartment as my water bottle, and that wouldn’t topple forward when I set it on the floor. It seems durable, and I hope we’ll have many happy years together.
-
I bought this product based on the review, and I’m very satisfied with it. It’s made of sturdy, durable material, and the zippers are waterproof everywhere except where they meet. A 2L Camelbak fit in it without any problem, and the water kept my back pleasantly cool thanks to the padded back panel, even despite the 33-degree heat outside.
-
A very good backpack, it works great for short trips. It is solidly made, spacious, and has an attractive price for the quality. The only thing I miss is additional pockets in the main compartment, but the MOLLE/PALS system makes up for it.
-
For this price, the backpack is quite decent. It's solidly made, and on the inside, it has a rubber layer, which makes it waterproof. It features several pockets and plenty of compartments. It's quite spacious. The biggest downside for me is the weak carrying system, which can be problematic when carrying heavier loads for a longer time. Overall, if you're interested in this kind of backpack, I can recommend it.
-
The backpack has a large capacity. I really like the gray color version, although the green one is also solid and durable. The straps and fastenings are very comfortable and work great with heavier loads on long trips. I wholeheartedly recommend it.
-
The backpack works very well. With a 40-liter capacity, I can easily fit everything I need for a three-day trip, including a mess kit and a thermos. I've been using the backpack for two years, mainly for trips into nature, usually by train. I pack carefully, without forcing things in, so far I’ve avoided the problems others describe, like seams ripping or broken zippers. The loops are well arranged—two on each side allow for securely attaching, for example, a jacket or sweatshirt on top. Two straps underneath are perfect for a blanket or a lightweight sleeping bag. I really like that even after attaching various items on the outside, the top and bottom pockets remain easily accessible, which is practical for things you need to grab often.
-
The backpack was purchased in 2023. The zippers had to be replaced three times. Holes appeared at the bottom. It was used daily for regular carrying. It's a shame that the quality is so low. Initially, everything worked flawlessly, but over time problems appeared.
-
The backpack fully meets my requirements. It is solidly made, has the right size, and the quality of the materials and zippers is flawless. A big plus is the possibility of attaching additional accessories using the MOLLE/PALS system. It has two spacious pockets and two smaller ones for smaller items. I already have the 25L version of this backpack, but sometimes it turned out to be too small. The 40L model should already be sufficient.
-
A solidly made backpack, durable stitching, spacious pockets, sturdy military-style details like Velcro, straps, and buckles. The back is ergonomically shaped, with a separate place for a bottle. The backpack is roomy and works well for everyday EDC use.
-
Very good backpack. Really remarkable quality for the price. Seems durable. The pockets are very practical. Ideal for everyday use or trips of a few days.
-
Practical backpack, I use it for everyday life, and the size is ideal for that. It can be easily expanded with the Molle system. Looks very robust for the price. I am satisfied and have also bought the backpack in the 25L version!
-
Considering its price, the backpack is alright, but with intensive use it lasts at most 2-3 years, because afterwards the seams at the zippers start to come apart, creating gaps through which water can get in during rain.
