I don't have a car, only a motorcycle. Transporting things becomes a lot more difficult for me via bike. I have multiple backpacks and they are fine . . . until summer rolls around and you sweat through a shirt while your lower back does it's best to become Florida. It's not fun until I got the idea to wear one of these over my butt.The idea actually came to me from the main character of an anime named Renton from Eureka Seven. He's a mechanic and carries all his tools in a pack like this but behind him and tucked under a hoodie. I thought I would try to imitate it and ended up really liking the results. My back is free and open to breathe at stoplights while since the pack sits so low on me, turning to do headchecks doesn't upset my balance like a full backpack would. It's opening is rather small but still very doable, Ive mostly used it just to carry my lunch/take out to go food like burgers, burritos or sandwiches or anything else that's compact and easy to travel with.All n all an excellent pack for those with a specific purpose in mind.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best waist pouch I ever had!
Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2018

This pouch it's simply amazing. You can fit so much stuff in it and has replaced my Maxpedition Pygmy on my trips to the store or work when a backpack is too much to carry around. I can even pack my lunch in it! I can fit two 1.3 cup Rubbermaid containers and two 0.5 Cup containers in the main compartment or trow in my expensive Blutooth speaker to protect it from dust and moisture as It's playing music. The front compartment is also very spacious and can fit plenty of stuff too. Cellphone, Powerbank, wires, toothpaste, toothbrush, cologne, deodorant and room for more! it might sound everything is all messy. But is well organized whit the inner pouches and dividers. Is very well though out. If you need more room. It has two side pouches and it has another hidden pouch on the back and two front pen or sharpie sheath's. If you still need more room, you can use the webbing to attach another Maxpedition pouch or Grimloc add-ons. Or do what I do and just hook anything to the webbing whit a carabineer. Another cool thing about it is the many options to carry this bag/pouch/pack. It supposed to be a waist bag but you can add a shoulder strap by hooking one by the D rings in the top of the pouch and wear it over your shoulder or across your chest like I do sometimes or just grab it by the handle and carry it as a suitcase sorta speak. The handle is very well made and heavy-duty. Did I mention I can even roll my windbreaker jacket and strap it underneath the handle whit the buckles? I can go on and on about the many things I have used it for. Hope it helps you decide or Ideas what you can use it for. For me it was totally worth it.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of Maxpedition's Best!
Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2014

I've been using the Proteus Versipack for about a month now and I must say this is one of the best Maxpedition products I've used! And I've tried quite a few. Definitely not inexpensive, but for what you get, $58 is within reason. As a technician's tool bag, it's a joy to use. The build quality and design are exceptional. The material almost feels bullet-proof. I particularly like the 2 external pen holders. Extremely convenient feature. I'm always needing a pen for filling out paperwork on the job and this keeps two always within reach without having to open anything. These could also be used to hold penlights, screwdrivers, or other small tools.

The side pouches give you quick access options for smaller items without having to open the main compartment, whereas the front and main compartments require you to unbuckle the hand strap first. This does add another step to getting into your gear, but it's not too cumbersome, and the added security is nice. At first, the Proteus did seem rather small. But after loading it up and adding attachments, I realized that for the way they've set it up to carry, I wouldn't want it to be much bulkier anyway. Since I won't be using the waistpack straps that are stored in the back sleeve, I plan to remove them, which will free up some internal space in the main compartment.

By the way, to carry documents, I'm attaching the Maxpedition Pocket Tactile Large to the back molle. Just the right dimensions for letter-sized paper folded in half. This pouch is almost exactly the same height as the Proteus so it's a good add-on if you need more space.

The only real improvements I can think of for the Proteus would be to make the side pouches about an inch wider (3-inches is somewhat limiting). Also, the adjustable straps connected to the carry handle can loosen up a bit as you carry the bag around. Not really an issue the way I use it, but it could be a problem if you're trying to strap something to the outside of the bag. Perhaps some velcro or other 'locking' mechanism could eliminate slippage. But these are pretty minor things. Overall an awesome product. Great job Maxpedition!

The Proteus is well constructed as all the Maxpedition bags and pouches, when it comes to materials and quality there are amazing... But unfortunately this butt pack (or versipack!) has a few details that you need to take on consideration.

The opening on the top for the main compartment could feel small, is roughly 6.5 inches only, the width of the main compartment is closer to 8.5 inches, that 2 inches are used by the 2 zippers used to close the top, so nothing beyond 5 inches on length can be put there or you will have a hard time retrieving it on the go.

I'm not sure why I don't noticed it from the pictures before purchasing the bag but the top part don't have any map flap to cover the access so that put the bag out of question to use on any rain situation, instead of the classic map flap that you will see on a butt pack we have a small handle that snaps on place with two side release plastic buckles to the compression straps on the bag on the front.

The secondary compartment is around 7 inches on width but it feels bigger due the fact that the zipper covers almost the totality of the front of the pocket from side to side, it has 3 dividers (one big and two smalls) that allows for some smart organization (alcohol or refreshing wipes, some medication on small zip lock bags, passport or small notepad) it has a section of PALS webbing for you to play with maybe a small pouch (3.5 inches of webbing!).

It has two super small pouches on the sides, and I want to be clear that I'm not exaggerating when I say SUPER SMALL! The side pouches are 2" wide by 5" tall, so you can not put a cellphone there unless is a 2005 flip phone! I tested with different objects that I have at hand and I could fit a small bottle of pills, so probably you can carry some medication or a container like that with batteries, matches, maybe some band aids and tweezers?

The reason why I'm not returning it is because it was purchased as a companion for my main camera bag when I'm walking and taking pictures.

I need a bag to put the light meter, the lens caps, filters and extra rolls of film, the big bag gets on the way if I lean forward or kneel in order to get a better angle, it swings around when running or walking fast unless I use my right hand to keep the bag close to my core!

The Proteus is on my butt, so my hands are free to hold and protect the camera, when I need the meter just reach back and grab it, after metering it goes back, need a new roll of film? the same process, just reach on the back and get a new and drop the exposed one, it is out of the way keep the old photographer vest on the closet!

Extremely solid bag, well built. Remember that if you want to use it as a buttpack, you need to manage the weight to it. It’s not going to be comfortable if you put too much weight on it. You can put a strap if you don’t like a buttpack.

Ciao, ho preso recentemente questo Proteus per farne una borsa per il kit di primo soccorso e devo dire che il risultato finale è quello che mi aspettavo. Non ho molto da dire su questo specifico prodotto se non quello di valutare per bene le misure: è validissimo per certe cose,molto meno per altre perché può risultare piccolo.
In merito alla marca invece, devo dire che possiedo decine di prodotti maxpedition, alcuni acquistati nel 2007 come l'Octa ad esempio e, dopo un uso quotidiano, sono ancora pari al nuovo. Stesso discorso per zaini e tasche,al momento è la sola marca che non mi ha deluso pertanto il prezzo di acquisto è sicuramente alto ma la qualità certamente paga. Credo che in questo caso si possa dire " chi più spende meno spende".

まず第一印象はごつくて重い。今時のカバンじゃありません。
その分生地も分厚いですし長く使えそうです。

　ウエストポーチとして使うなら自重で斜めになってしまうのでショルダーハーネスなんかがあると良いと思います。バックルの滑りが良すぎるのでズレてしまうのが玉にきず。
というわけで自分は斜め掛けで使ってます。

　メインポケットにはオーガナイザーなら5インチの物が4つくらい入ります。
財布と身分証、モバイルバッテリーくらいでパンパンになります。

　サブポケットは表に一つとサイドに二つ、表には薄手のメモ帳やウエットティッシュなどを入れています。
サイドポケットはサイズが微妙で6㎝くらい。たばこの箱の幅と同じくらい。
高さは10㎝ほど有るのでモバイルバッテリーも10000mAhくらいの物なら入れられるかな？
カードケースを入れるのにちょうどよいです。

　使いにくい点としては持ち手部分。こいつをいちいち外さないとメインポケットにアクセスできません。
海外ユーザーの中では切り取ってしまったりする場合もあるようです。
自分は無いと無いで寂しいのでそのまま使っています。
コンプレッションベルト的に使えるのでそれはそれで便利です。荷崩れしません。

　メインバックルは2インチのデュラフレックスウォリアーなので、同じものを使っている製品なら使えます。maxpeditionとマグフォースならJanusが使えます。
取っ手のバックルはデュラフレックスのモハベのようなのですが、特につなげるものはないかな？

おススメの人は
・maxpeditionが好きな人
・重くても頑丈なものが好きな人
・大して荷物が多くない人
・EDCギア好き
かな？

好き嫌いが凄く分かれそうです。
