Built for law enforcement and security professionals, the 5.11 Overwatch Messenger is a durable messenger bag constructed from rugged 500D nylon, built to handle frequent flights, daily commutes, and meetings. The main compartment keeps you organised with three mesh zippered pockets, hook-and-loop slip pockets, and a water bottle holder. Carry up to a 15-inch laptop or tablet in the external rear padded zippered pocket or internal padded sleeve, with padding throughout designed to protect your important gear.
A hidden quick-access compartment with a loop platform allows for concealed carry, and front pockets plus an admin panel hold optics, plane tickets, multi-tools, and other travel accessories. External MOLLE webbing provides accessory attachment. A padded shoulder strap, soft mesh panel on the rear, and external water bottle pocket help you carry comfortably through the day, and a luggage handle pass-through lets you stack the messenger on top of your luggage at the airport or when checking into a hotel.
