It also features dual top pockets with internal slip pockets and an expanded fleece-lined eyewear pouch. With a generous web MOLLE platform and a contoured yoke shoulder system, the RUSH 24™ 2.0 allows you to organize essential gear exactly where you need it for any environment.

5.11 RUSH Backpack FAQ

Which RUSH size should I choose?

Match capacity to your primary use case. RUSH 12 (24L) suits daily carry, gym and urban EDC. RUSH 24 (37L) is the sweet spot for duty and training. RUSH 72 (55L) handles 3-day loadouts and deployment kit. RUSH 100 (60L) covers extended travel and full field ops. Most professionals own two: a smaller RUSH for daily carry and a larger RUSH for duty or field use.

Are RUSH backpacks waterproof?

Water-resistant, not fully waterproof. The 1050D nylon shell sheds rain and light water contact. For extended wet conditions or water crossings, use a dedicated rain cover or a waterproof compression bag inside the main compartment.

What's MOLLE and can I attach pouches?

MOLLE (Modular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment) is a webbing system that lets you attach modular pouches, holsters and accessories directly to your pack. RUSH backpacks have MOLLE across the front, sides and top for full customisation. Any MOLLE-compatible pouch attaches directly. No special tools required.

What size laptop fits in the RUSH?

RUSH 12 fits laptops up to 15". RUSH 24, RUSH 72 and RUSH 100 fit laptops up to 17" in the dedicated padded compartment integrated into the back panel.

Are RUSH backpacks approved for cabin luggage?

RUSH 12 and RUSH 24 fit standard international cabin luggage dimensions across most airlines. RUSH 72 and RUSH 100 exceed cabin dimensions for most airlines and should be checked. Verify specific airline requirements before travel as dimensions vary between carriers.

How do I care for my RUSH backpack?

Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Air dry only, never machine wash or tumble dry. Store empty and unfolded when not in use to preserve shape. Zippers benefit from occasional lubricant if used in dusty environments.

Is there a warranty on RUSH backpacks?

Yes. 5.11 Tactical offers a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects on all RUSH backpacks. For warranty claims, contact TacSource and we'll coordinate with 5.11 on your behalf.

When will my order be dispatched?

Brisbane stock ships within 24 hours of order placement. Sydney stock ships on a slightly longer lead time. You'll receive dispatch confirmation with tracking as soon as your order leaves the warehouse.

I purchased this backpack in April 2026. I've used it for 20km of hiking so far. The construction is faultless and found the wide straps to be very comfortable. I bought a 2.5L mil spec bladder which fitted well. Overall, very happy and couldn't rate it more highly!
