Alongside the 5.11 Rush series, the AMP series is arguably one of the most popular backpack lines 5.11 Tactical has ever offered. Although 5.11 has officially retired the AMP series as a standard offering, the company has just announced it will be bringing back both the AMP12 and AMP24 backpacks for a limited time. There will be 511 units of each color, available until sold out. Full details are in the official 5.11 press release below.

5.11's AMP Backpacks are Back! (For a Limited Time)

Raising the bar for maximum versatility and storage, 5.11® is bringing back limited inventory of the All Missions collection, with the AMP12 ($170) and AMP24 ($190), with 511 units of each size and color available while supplies last.
Both offerings feature 5.11’s patented HEXGRID® multi-angle load bearing platform, including a removable 9x9 HEXGRID® panel for rapid mission customization. A full clamshell main compartment with Quad-Zip zippers provides complete access to organized storage, supported by internal loop panels, mesh organization, and admin pockets. Built from water-resistant 500D Dobby Nylon with a reinforced 1050D nylon base and TAC-LAM™ laminate, the AMP12 and AMP24 are finished with a thermoformed back panel. The AMP bags will be available in black, dark kangaroo and ranger green.
The AMP12 has 25-liter capacity, while the AMP24 comes in at 32-liters.

The AMP series of backpacks probably owes much of its popularity to appearing as a piece of equipment, unofficially known as the “5.11 Tactical Backpack,” in the video game The Division, in the form of the AMP24. That, along with its utility and overall design, is why the AMP12 and AMP24 are among the best backpacks 5.11 has ever released (in my opinion), which is why you should pick one up while you still can!

    It's disappointing that, having kept an eye on their products and worn their pants for over a decade, 5.11 seems to have fired the people that were making innovative gear and diversity-hired a bunch of idiots who think pastel colors on generic, poorly-made garbage is what defines their company image. And maybe those idiots are right.

    5.11 is junk quality for posers and LARPers.
