The Vertx Gamut 26L Backpack (part number VTX5028, UPC 199288031209) is a 26-litre everyday-carry rucksack from Vertx's Gamut family. It is carry gear rather than an optic: a rugged nylon shell, a rapid-access pull tab system, a loop-lined compartment with a securing strap, dual laptop sleeves taking devices up to 16 inches (41 cm), and a full interior of mesh pockets, gear slots and loop panels.
The 26L is the middle of the Gamut range and the one most people settle on. It carries a working day's kit without becoming a piece of luggage, and it keeps the discreet exterior that is the point of the whole Vertx line — nothing on the outside says what is inside.
How It Compares
Four litres larger than the Vertx Gamut 22L backpack, and the first in the range with dual laptop sleeves. For a bigger load, the Vertx Gamut 32L backpack adds another six litres. For a plainer, simpler everyday pack without the Gamut pull-tab system, see the Vertx Ready Pack X 20L backpack. Browse the full Vertx carry range.
