High quality, very comfortable with different weights. It is visible that a lot of attention and thoughts were invested in the making and design of this backpack. I am very satisfied with my purchase. Highly recommend.
Dragon Egg Enlarged® is a bigger variant of the classic "Dragon Egg" backpack. This 30-liter patrol backpack is also suitable for daily use. It includes two pockets for hydration bladders, one located in the main compartment and another in the secured back compartment, which, with a unique sleeve, can safely accommodate a radio station or a 15" laptop.
The front compartment, similar in size to the main compartment, features a practical organizer and a mesh pocket. The side pockets are designed for carrying flat and small items, and once the zipper is opened, they expand to accommodate a Nalgene bottle.
The Dragon Egg Enlarged® is fitted with a laser-cut MOLLE/PALS compatible system. Its compact shape makes this backpack smaller than others with the same capacity, facilitating easier use with ballistic vests and belt gear.
The backpack's carrying system includes internal back padding and soft, comfortable shoulder straps. The handle is crafted from paracord, which can be unraveled in emergencies to provide 5.5 meters of cord.

Camouflage MultiCam
MultiCam is an advanced camouflage design created in 2002 by the American firm Crye Precision in partnership with the United States Army Soldier Systems Center (Natick Labs) under the Objective Force Warrior program. The intent was to develop a versatile camouflage pattern suited for diverse terrains and shifting environmental conditions. The MultiCam pattern incorporates seven colors, featuring gradient transitions between green, brown, and beige hues. Consequently, it adjusts dynamically to its surroundings, blending with green shades in wooded areas or brown and beige hues in desert regions; it performs exceptionally in autumn and among dry vegetation in Central and Eastern Europe. MultiCam has earned global acclaim and is employed by numerous military forces and special units. In 2010, the camouflage was officially adopted by the US Army as the pattern for soldiers in Afghanistan, replacing the previous Universal Camouflage Pattern (UCP). This pattern is also available to civilians, making it a favored option among military and airsoft enthusiasts.

Tragedy. For a backpack that costs nearly a thousand zlotys, I expected high quality. Unfortunately, after rather careful use (events, small shopping trips), after only a year and a half, a strap began to detach and the main zipper stopped working. Even a fake Swiss Gear from China was more durable and cost three times less. I'm waiting for the manufacturer's reaction to my complaint, but I thought that at this price I would receive something sturdier. I am very disappointed.

I'm delighted. This is probably the best backpack I've ever seen. It has everything this size should have. This model has been expanded to 30 liters. The roomy interior allows you to organize the space well, and also to add your own accessories—extra pockets, holders, straps, elastics, etc. The only inconvenience is that mounting is a bit harder without a strap system, but it’s not a big problem when used longer. The backpack is carefully made and makes a great first impression.

Since I bought this backpack, I've walked about 200 km with it. I have used it really intensively and haven't held back. Advantages: - Very durable, solid backpack. - Comfortable, soft straps. - Interesting color scheme (shadow grey) Disadvantages: - The biggest downside is the inner pockets and organizer located in the upper parts of the compartments, which makes putting in and taking out larger items (e.g. mess kit, spare food, poncho) very inconvenient. - The declared capacity of 30 liters seems a bit "on paper" because larger items push out the inside, leaving less space in the second compartment. - Strap adjustment lasts for about an hour of brisk walking, then you have to adjust them again.

Previously, I had the MK2 model with a 25-liter capacity. Now, I chose this 30-liter backpack. It looks really good and is solidly made. The shadow grey color is great for urban use. The backpack is quite heavy, but the quality of workmanship makes up for it.

Reliable, solid, and well-designed backpack. It's perfect as an EDC, and packing for a few days' trip with it is a real pleasure. Definitely worth the price, as it's an investment for many years. It looks great, and in black color, it subtly hides its tactical character.

Good morning, the backpack is solid and definitely worth recommending! The number of compartments and the quality of the materials are impressive. You can feel its weight, but that’s a small thing compared to my overall rating, which is 5!
-
Buying this backpack brought me great joy. The quality, durability, and ergonomics exceeded my expectations, and the workmanship is of a very high standard. The price isn’t low, but in my opinion, the backpack is worth every penny. It is quite stiff, so it needs a little time to adapt. I’ve been using it daily for a long time and the only sign of wear is dust (because it’s black). Lots of possibilities for personalization with accessories if you want. The carrying system is excellent – even with a 10-12 kg load, I feel like I’m only carrying five. So far, I see no flaws. I highly recommend it.
-
A great backpack for everyday carrying—it also works well at the shooting range and on short trips. I definitely recommend it.
-
The backpack is fantastic! I wanted plenty of pockets and compartments inside – this model met my expectations. Made from strong materials and very well stitched! The backpack has already been tested – it doesn’t leak, but it’s worth applying extra waterproofing. In my opinion, the price is entirely justified!
-
A great backpack for everyday use.
-
The price matches the quality, the backpack is very spacious and comfortable to carry.
-
Great materials, sturdy fastenings, and careful craftsmanship; the backpack is comfortable to wear and very spacious, with many compartments and pockets. An interesting feature is the detachable hip belt, which can be easily removed when not needed.
-
It's difficult to judge how long the backpack will last right now—time will tell. At this moment, I am very satisfied with the quality of workmanship, everything is well-made, and the backpack fits perfectly on my back. It has many pockets and compartments. Additionally, it features a reinforced laptop compartment, which is a big plus. It's perfect for traveling, on hiking trips, as well as for everyday use in the city.
