- Krik of Black Owl Outdoors takes a look at the Titan Assault Pack from Condor Elite, the top of the line gear from Condor Outdoors. Recently we were contacted by Michael over at Condor and he asked if were interested in reviewing any of their new line of packs. After looking it over we decided on the Titan Assault Pack. Constructed of 500D Cordura and sporting a dividable main compartment, The Titan is just about the perfect backpack for day trips and, depending on skill level, short over-nighters. If the external pockets on the sides of the pack were replaced with water bottle pockets, Krik and stony may stop the everlasting search for the "perfect bag"...

Condor's water bottle holder will carry that steel canteen perfectly. You can attach it to the Molle on the back panel. It does add a little weight though.
Great job on a thorough review. Always tighten your belt strap first so the weight is resting on your hips and closer to your center of gravity. Then tighten the shoulder straps so it stays flat against your back.
As allways: An AWESOME review!! You are doing a GREAT job for all us consumers out here. Thank you!!
That's a really nice pack! Love the "tactical" style packs, and that color is perfect. Great review as always. Thank you for sharing. Be well.
Good pack , that "goofy" mesh pocket would probably suit a first-aid kit & the bottom exterior part looks ideal for a sleeping bag , good vid. :)
I considered this pack, but no side water bottle pouch nixed that consideration. Condor products have have always been a favorite of mine .
Great review! Easy fix for a water bottle, strap on a molle compatible dump pouch to either side of the hip belt. The dump pouch also has multiple uses not just for holding a water bottle.
The production quality of you guys' videos os superb
Great in-depth review, thank you. You just helped me make my decision on this bag. I was on the fence because I hadn't really seen the review I was looking for...until your video. I really enjoy the content and the quality of your videos. My only 'quirk' I guess is in the intro. I am not sure about the 'Turtles' reference...again, just me. Aside from that, keep doing what you do and I and many others will be watching. God Bless you friend!
I like Condor backpacks and this one looks great. I own the Condor 134 assault pack&shoulder bag and my understanding is that is not longer in production. Great video.
I agree on the water bottle pouches. Nothing worse than hiking along and your water bottle falls out. Scratches, dents and broken plastic that leaks all your water.
great video, been looking at the elite bags for a while, might get the sling bag for now. will probably buy this for Christmas ha-ha
Nice bag but prefer the rush but love the front admin layout on this :)
Good review krik. Love the pack hanger. Cool bag one of the better packs they have produced. I really like the rubberized bottom, the rear adjustment straps for the hip belt and the pull forward straps for tightening the waist belt. It would have been nice for them to include a rain cover. Thanks Krik and Stony. atb Opal
Very well done. Excellent reference. I'm sold. Buying this week. Appreciated. Keep up the good work.
That's a very cool bag. From what I see, it might be my favourite of the ones you've reviewed.
I also prefer a water bottle to a bladder, but I seem to remember Condor or Maxpedition making a MOLLE bottle holder. Silly to have to spend extra dough on one when they should have just made one of the side pockets a bottle holder, but well, you know...
+Raindance Bushcraft Yea I think this is one of mine as well. You could definitely add a bottle holder. But I wouldn't. You'd be adding like 5-6 inches to the width of the pack (if you put it on the side). I don't use MOLLE in general because I don't like having loads of stuff on the outside of my packs. -Krik
+Black Owl Outdoors yeah, I've never used MOLLE in my life. Good point about adding the inches. I hadn't thought of that, but I hate getting crap caught up in the underbrush as I walk between the trees. Our forests up here can get a little uh... Narrow.
Still trying to decide between this and the Rush 72. This pack appears to have a much better hip belt though.
Neat bag. Neat how you have it hanging. Animals might have nothing to do with it. A person during the night might pass it and miss it completely while the owner is on the ground asleep. As well it is likely to be clean, and in case of rain it might fair better - protecton from the wet being so close to the tree, and protecton from the rot - mud, soil.
Well the great thing about molle webbing is you can add water bottle holders or whatever you want
thank you for the in depth review!
you made my decision to purchase this bag easier.
keep the great videos coming!!
Great review of in my opinion and awesome bag. I watched preparedmind101 review of it but found your review more informative. Thanks for all you do Krik & Stony continued success
I like this pack. Getting closer to a hike-able tactical pack. I keep saying I want to find a pack that is tactical but rides well like an Osprey or some other hiking bag. Looks like this one might. You guys do great videos. Good quality and production. Really nice looking graphics at the end now too. Nice work!
If you're willing to spend a decent amount of money, you should check out Platatac packs. Australian company but they ship to the US and to Europe as far as I know.
check out mystery ranch. they are hand made here in the us come with a lifetime warranty. they are built like a tank...but they are super pricey
Nice pack. I just picked one up for myself best one I've ever had!
Looks like a nice solid backpack
Thank you! The discount is still active!
I just love that peace. Good trick to make it 1 part or 2 part backpack, the water bottle yeah... but it has my tumb up.
Just seen this review and thank you for the in depth review. The only thing this bag is missing are load lifters on the shoulder straps, apart from that its looks very much like a commercial hiking harness.
Awesome stuff as always guys! Keep up the good work!
I love your vids
They make molle pouches for water bottles. You can attached it to the outside molle.
Say Heah Krik, I think I have either a 3 day or a 3-5 day Condor 2 in the digital camo, and I really like it, it's simple fir one, but I also molle attach some of my cutting tool's and sufficient compartments fir water and my tarp, binoculars etc. and other things to carry while I scout a area or just go out for a hot cup of coffee on the open fire, I like my shoulder but sometime I find it too be too small, but I use it to really go lite. Yeah, Condor makes some good stuff.
I was thinking the same thing. This pack would great with a water bottle holder. Better yet, I would buy one right now if the took the handles off the sided and put Molle. Then I could mount a bottle holder and still have all the great storage just as it currently is. Condor... Get rid of the side handles and replace with molle
I really like this video, Krik. I've been looking for a bit of a smaller back to turn into a BOB -vs- the USMC ILBE I have in my car. I think I may take a look at this one.
Thanks for reviewing this. I'm going to go and order one
Great review!
Thanks buddy.

So could you recommend this pack for a long distance hike? Im confident it can hold all the gear id need, but is it comfortable enough for 20+ mile a day hiking?
well I just got one,its super comfortable I've never done a 20 mile hike but its the most comfortable and padded backpack I've ever owned and it has really durable material even concerning the padding its thick but also has the right firmness not to little to have no effect but not to much to feel like rocks either,I feel its damn near perfect
Most excellent!! That would be a great pack to own. I have been looking for another pack and 15% is awesome!!
On the waist belt, a glide buckle is what you were pointing at (I think, it looked like you were pointing at the glide buckle )
Looks pretty good.
First one of your videos I've watched. I heard about you from Survival lily. Very nice review of an excellent pack. Thank you for it. Checking out your other videos now.
Good job guys
Does this pack have a plastic/rigid frame sheet to help bear weight?
Great very informative video from a genuine sounding guy, subbed
great review.. i agree with the need for water bottle over a bladder.. but with all that webbing i will add one.. thanks fellas
Hey Krik, would a beginner be able to use this backpack for a 2 night, 3 day backpacking trip if they only brought the bare essentials?
Crik got frickin ripped
Quick question, a Ptzel helmet can fit in the lower compartment?
Great job once again!
GREAT REVIUW -- SALUDOS DESDE LIMA PERIU
The molle webbing you don't like is made to add stuff to the bag... like a needed bottle holder... Just sayin'! (Condor make those too!)
I like the pack. A bit larger than a dayback, but not a huge expedition pack. Perfect for 72 hours prepper pack.
I agree that the lower main section is a great idea. It makes it easier to pack the heavy stuff on the top and make it stay there. Great bag to organize your stuff so you know where to find it, when you need it.
+Rangersly i think they know that he just saying he would prefer less no offence
+Rangersly I don't like adding extra bulk to the outside of my pack. That's why I wished one of those pockets fit a water bottle. I know the versatility of webbing.
I'm sorry, I was being sarcastic, with friendly tongue-in-cheek intentions I assure you. Of course, I know that you know the function of webbing. I started to watch your awesome videos not long ago, but I can see right away that you know your stuff. I'm a subscribing fan.
I fully appreciate your preference for a lean pack with not too much frills hanging on it. Lower profile, less chances to get tangled up in branches, etc. I like those packs as well, but I also like a pack that is basic as it gets, with webbing so I can adapt it to my needs with pouches. I too need to have a bottle holder on my pack, but I don't mind adding a pouch for it.
CONGRATULATIONS FROM LIMA PERU -- WATER BOTTLE NECESARY
very good review!
Should do a review of the Osprey Anti Gravity. Seems like a great pack for the price.
Excellent review! Thanks!
Beautiful bag!!!
Nice review. Thank you. Nice backpack too
Well Done Video! And a nice looking pack.
I believe condor makes a Nalgene bottle pouch that can be latched to the Molle webbing. I hope that solves your bottle pouch problems!
If they dont, I know Maxpedition does.
They do but beware condor Molle webbing on those do not line up correctly with normal Molle. Even with that problem which condor is infamous for still worth the $17 they cost.
+Mikey Banaag I don't like to add extra bulk to the outside of my packs. That's why I wished one of those pockets fit a water bottle.
+Black Owl Outdoors Yeah I see how it would make the pack more cumbersome. You make great videos, keep them coming!
Been loving your videos! Here's a quick question for C and R. . . what system do you use to sharpen your knives and tools in the field? I've seen your sharpening video about your home system, but I wanna know what's your field system.
very nice
i hope it have a black color
Looks like a nice pack! Will take part in the giveaway
Do you think this bag would be suitable for a 15 mile hike? Will it hold a small one person tent and small mummy bag? I don't want to buy a dedicated hiking pack because I won't get as much use out of it.
Awesome back pack!!
love your videos
9:00 It's called a "Triglide"
thnx for the video. You are doing a great job but you kept me left into the open what to buy. Because both tactical bags were great video's.
what would you choose the 5.11 tactical rush 72 or the Condor elite?
You may wanna search your title..their is another channel using your video with a link to sell products...they had stolen one of my videos as well!
Is it ok if I Take it to school? I mean, it’s perfect for it
how's the shoulder straps holding up they just looked sewn to the pack without any smaller straps securing them? possible weak point?
MOLE webbing is a must!
9:00 it's called a tri-glide.
Parabéns, amigo adorei este review, são todos ótimos seus vídeos.
Would you choose this pack over the Direct Action dragon egg or ghost ?
Any rips or tears? Zipper fails?
you've probably been asked this before but, where did u get that hat
Do you think that this is big enough for a 3 day 2 night winter wild camp/ hike ( in Scotland ) thanks
+Joseph Jobes I can't answer that for you. I don't know the gear you own on your skill level.
WATER RESISTANT?
Nice knife, I had one like it years ago. I got it in Germany. Where did you get it and whats' the name of it?
thanks for the very detailed video on this pack there's not much out there on it . does the coupon code work for Canadian ? every where I look for this bag in Canada its around 200 to 250 $ :( used my condor 3 day pack too much so I've been looking to replace it with this
+josh p I'll check and get back to you.
i dont think you explained the straps that attach to the bottom, what do they do?
It's to lash gear to the bottom, like you would you be able to do on a hiking pack. You could lash a tent or sleeping bag etc.
Is it better than the rush 72?
Hi, do you have a video where you name your favorite backpack? I am currently in the market for one (no particular size) and I am looking for the best one. I have seen your 5.11 reviews and I like those but I figure id ask the expert haha
Would it work to use the webbing to add a water bottle pouch or maybe even two?
+R Middleton Yes it would. But then you would be adding more width to the pack. And I don't like having lots of stuff on the outside of my pack, in general. Just preference though.
9:00 Tri-slide.
Sorry, but no, the upper main compartment is not "full clam shell." That is plain to see in the video, that when it is zipped open as far as it will go, and the front panel is pulled down, the front panel is not totally released, and its bottom and sides buckle as they are pulled by the force of the incomplete opening. It is very irritating to try to open something so that you can get all the way into it, but it will not open completely. When will these companies like Condor and 511 realize that customers hate this incomplete clam shelling feature? We want our pack to be capable of opening COMPLETELY. Then if we want to open them only partially, we can keep them partially zipped closed at the bottom.
Do you have any plans to do a video on the Direct Action Ghost?
too bad only 5.11 makes molle shoulder straps. would've been nice if this bag had those.
cool bag, nice Video ;)
Tell me please how much weight empty backpack
seems like these packs are just pockets inside of pockets. It's a nice novelty, but I think it's a waste of space and material.
+The Camping Canuck It's definitely a style and preference thing.
The Camping Canuck it awesomely works for diving shit into sections
What's its weight, empty?
How does it compare to the Vanquest Falconer 27?
+MrWinger1951 In what way?
what brand zippers does Condor use?
How long does the discount go?
I've been looking at getting one of these, but didn't know how it would fit me. How tall are you?
+SmokyMountainOutdoorsman 5 feet 9 inches.
just went to condor to order this and you must be a dealer. why give 50 % off and can't order?
I understand that Condor has made a really nice pack here, but I think if they could sell it for just under $100 they'd make a fortune.
+dspurlock23 This is their elite line - may not be possible to make it budget friendly. Just a guess though.
personally not big enough for me ....maybe as a trapping,cutting tool,fishing,hunting equip. bag. if i used it as a piggy back for a INCH ruck pack it could work well. but not as a stand alone pack.
How long is that 15% off coupon code good for?
+Beth Walker They said for at least one year.
Can you recommend a pack that's smaller than a 5.11 Rush 12?
What for?
Day hikes.
I use a berghause remote 20lt for day hikes, it's a great bag, with a hydration pouch that allows you to store up to 3ltrs of water, and enough space to hold extra layers, waterproof s snacks makes it great for day hikes it also has an inerr compartment that holds your phone and multi tool or a small to medium sized camera. It has an outer pouch that I use to hold a saw ( bacho Laplander ) and a medium sized knife. I think it has two Velcro loop things that are supposed to hold walking poles or I've axes but I'm not sure what they're for. From my experience it is 100% waterproof. The bag is extremely comfy to wear. The only downside is that the waterbotle pouches on the outside barley fit anything so I don't really use them. And after 3 years of use of hiking and for edc the only thing that has ever broke is the plastic cover on the grab handle. Hope that helps. And allot of berghause stuff is great including there waterproofs bags and clotting
