Direct Action DRAGON EGG® Mk II — 25L Modular Tactical Backpack

Direct Action DRAGON EGG® Mk II — 25L Modular Tactical Backpack｜Laser-Cut MOLLE｜Combat Vent System｜EDC / Patrol Pack

DRAGON EGG® Mk II 25L is a heavy-duty modular tactical backpack engineered for Military / Law Enforcement / Outdoor users. Its distinctive egg-shaped silhouette lowers height and width for a compact profile. Built from Cordura® 500D with DWR, featuring laser-cut MOLLE/PALS and the Combat Vent System® for back ventilation, it delivers low-profile, high-mobility carry for EDC and patrol roles.
Mk II updates: ① Refreshed with the new Direct Action logo; ② Redesigned side pockets: zipper gussets removed in favor of stretch expansion to fit a standard USGI canteen or a 1L Nalgene.

• Three Main Compartments — Built for Mission & Daily Use
  The main compartment includes a hydration sleeve and mesh pocket with a central hose port; the rear compartment has a padded protective sleeve for a multi-band radio or a 15" laptop; the front admin compartment provides mesh pockets and organizers for stationery/GPS so essentials stay visible.
  
  
• Redesigned Stretch Side Pockets
  Low-profile stretch expansion pockets hold slim items and expand to fit a USGI canteen or 1L Nalgene, replacing the previous zip expansion for a lighter, cleaner solution.
  
  
• Low-Profile Expansion｜Laser-Cut MOLLE/PALS
  The front panel’s laser-cut MOLLE keeps a discreet look. A central daisy chain accepts carabiners/attachments, while side and bottom compression straps & buckles secure external gear.
  
  
• Quick Access & Protection
  A top velour-lined zip pocket protects eyewear/phones from scratches; heavy-duty two-way YKK® zippers stay smooth under load.
  
  
• Stable Carry｜CVS® Ventilation
  The Combat Vent System® combines sculpted foam, multiple airflow channels, and breathable mesh to lift the pack slightly off your back, improving circulation and reducing heat/sweat. An internal stiffener in the back panel adds stability.
  
  
• Mission-Ready Details
  Quick-release shoulder straps, a removable stowable waist belt, side grab handle, D-ring attachment points, loop ID field (10.1 × 5.1 cm), Duraflex® / WooJin hardware, and a paracord drag handle (includes two 2.5 m cords) — practical for range days and daily carry alike.
  
  
• Colors & Camouflage
  Available in multiple solids/camos. PenCott™, Kryptek™, and Multicam® variants feature NIR treatment to reduce near-infrared visibility; PenCott SnowDrift™ serves winter/snow environments.
  
  

DRAGON EGG® Mk II pairs a 25L agile capacity with low-profile MOLLE and CVS® ventilation, switching seamlessly between EDC, patrol duty, range training, and urban/outdoor commuting. It’s also a solid base for building a BoB (Bug-out Bag).

FAQ

1. What size laptop fits? Is it radio compatible?
   The rear padded sleeve carries up to a 15" laptop securely, and can be configured for a multi-band radio (fit protection based on device size).
   
   
2. Is it hydration compatible?
   Yes — the main compartment hydration sleeve and central hose port integrate with most bladder systems. Secure the reservoir according to its size and weight.
   
   
3. Which bottles fit the side pockets?
   The Mk II’s stretch side pockets expand to fit a standard USGI canteen or a 1L Nalgene; they also hold slim tools or small items when contracted.
   
   
4. Is the waist belt removable?
   Yes. The waist belt is removable and stowable — run slick for light loads, reattach quickly for added stability.
   
   
5. What changed from the previous version?
   The Mk II features the updated brand logo and stretch side pockets (replacing the older zip-expansion design) for a lighter, cleaner carry.
   
   
6. How about weather resistance and low-viz?
   Cordura® 500D with DWR offers abrasion resistance and water repellency; selected camos (PenCott™, Kryptek™, Multicam®) include NIR treatment. Use a rain cover in heavy downpours for best protection.
