When commuting into the city during the morning rush hour, moving fast is key. And a low-profile messenger bag lets you do just that without the bulk of your daily gear slowing you down. With a quick swing, your everyday carry is right at your fingertips — all without having to take your bag off. Try doing that on a crowded train with a backpack on. Even better if the bag is rugged enough to take on the challenges of your day-to-day in and out of the city.
You know 5.11 Tactical for their legendary line of RUSH backpacks, but their messenger bag—the LIMA—deserves a spot in your EDC. At 11” high, 17” long, and 4” deep, the LIMA has more than enough space to store all your stuff. There's a padded laptop compartment, a quick-access admin panel for your smaller essentials, and water bottle pockets on each side which come in handy for a travel mug of your daily brew. The organization possibilities are endless, and these compartments make it easy to segregate and lay out your gear as you need it without adding to the bag's footprint. There's even a covert, quick-draw compartment for when you need a fast handle on your tools.
Like its backpack brothers, the LIMA is built tough for the harshest conditions. Its exterior is made from water-resistant 1050D nylon, with YKK zippers and Duraflex hardware to round out its fittings. The bag also features a wrap-around web platform that not only allows for expansion and customizability, but also compatibility with attachment systems like MOLLE, SlickStick, and TacTec. A luggage handle attachment and ambidextrous design also let you carry the LIMA as comfortably as possible.
