Read More »A critical part of everyday carry is the right gear for the right situation. And if you've ever researched how to use EDC gear to prepare for emergency preparedness, you might already know how important it is to assemble a bug out bag (also known as a go-bag or a bail-out bag). By packing the right essentials, you'll have a grab-and-go bag that will help keep you and your loved ones safe as you evacuate from an emergency situation. But what goes in your bag is just one part of the equation. The bag you pick to rely on to store and haul your emergency supplies and first aid kit is also essential. Selecting the wrong bag for that critical task can render all the effort you spent gathering the right gear to put inside of it moot. That's why we've put together this guide to help you DIY and pick the right bug-out bag for your needs. Each bug out bag in this guide has its own features, capacity, and carry style, giving you plenty of options to get you started with your emergency go bag that you can depend on in a crisis.

Read More »154 ratings Price $ $ $ The Eberlestock Switchblade is a CCW-compatible bug out bag with internal pockets for organizing small survival essentials and ammo. It also has a dedicated space for up to a 17-inch laptop or a hydration bladder. And despite its ergonomic combat-ready design and military ballistic nylon construction, it retains a low-profile design that integrates PALS webbing throughout the pack's exterior that isn't immediately apparent to the untrained eye. That avoids the telltale design that can make you stand out in the worst way as a target for people who have not prepared as much as they should have before a disaster. Check It Out 5.11 RUSH 72 2.0 Bug Out Bag Purchase Key Features Water-resistant Roomy main storage area Highly modular Specifications Materials 1050D Capacity 55L Weight 5.5 lbs EDC Rating 846 ratings Price $ $ $ The 5.11 RUSH 72 2.0 bug out bag has been one of the community's favorite backpacks for emergency prep for years. It's the bombproof construction that makes this bag. It's made out of highly abrasion-resistant 1050D ballistic nylon and has oversized and sturdy zippers that can handle more than a few rough openings and closings throughout its life. The extensive MOLLE and PALS webbing throughout the bag makes it great for tactical customization. While the 55-liter capacity makes it an excellent choice for three days or more of emergency wildfire planning, the RUSH 72 can be combined with other 5.11 bags in the line to further expand capacity for extended use. Check It Out Helikon-Tex Bail Out Bag Purchase Key Features Four external carry loops Four inner mesh pockets Innovative ventilation system with 3D mesh Specifications Materials Nylon Capacity 25L Weight 4.6 lbs EDC Rating 97 ratings Price $ $ $ Helikon-Tex is a European military surplus retailer and tactical gear manufacturer based in Poland. They've put together a purpose-built bag for low-profile urban bug-out missions. Their Bail Out Bag features a low-profile, 25L-capacity design that forces you to pare down to what you need in an emergency. Its YKK-zippered flat opening allows complete access to the interior, making packing and unpacking your survival gear a simple task. The suspension system built into the mesh back of the bag and the shoulder straps make carrying your gear long-term less of a burden than with other bags. What's unique about its design is its ability to transform from a backpack profile to a wide-open attachment platform. With a MOLLE/PALS-compatible interior panel and mesh pockets, there are a lot of customization options to segregate and organize your essentials. A large top handle lets you get a hold of the bag for quick movement without needing to put it on or zip it up again as a backpack, and if you find yourself in a vehicle, the bag transforms into a seat-back organizer for your essentials. Check It Out GORUCK GR2 Bug Out Bag Purchase Key Features Inner compartment with 3 pockets 4 rows of external and internal MOLLE webbing Extra padded straps Specifications Materials 500D / 1000D Capacity 26L Weight 3.5 lbs EDC Rating 848 ratings Price $ $ $ $ The venerable GORUCK GR2 finds its design inspiration from U.S. Special Forces first aid kit medic packs that are designed to open up completely flat. That design makes it easy to load and unload your gear from the bag, and the PALS webbing on the exterior shell makes it extensible. It's also available in three different sizes, the smallest being a 26L daypack, a 34L medium bag, and a sizeable 40L rucksack built for hauling the heaviest loadouts. The GR2 sets itself apart from the popular GR1 by integrating a front compartment with a built-in field pouch into the bag’s capacity. The military inspiration for this bug out bag extends to its hard-use construction. It's made out of 1000D CORDURA ballistic nylon and comes with a lifetime guarantee against defects in workmanship or materials. GORUCK will even fix or replace their bags or packs if you wear them out over time. Check It Out GWA Citadel Gen.3 Mk2 Bug Out Bag Purchase Key Features Tweave Durastretch Built-in HDPE framesheet Dual bottle pockets Specifications Materials 500D INVISTA CORDURA nylon Capacity 24L Weight 2.6 lbs EDC Rating Just released Price $ $ $ $ The GWA Citadel can be hard to find because of the limited-run nature of the production of this bag, but the wait can be worth it. It took seven years to plan the design of this bailout bag, and three different iterations have made this one of the best bailout bags you can buy today (when it's in stock). The main zippered compartment is lined with velcro, making it compatible with smaller bags and pouches for a structured bug out carry. The reverse-type zippers help prevent snagging and zipper failure in critical situations. The water bottle pouches can fit up to a 40oz container for all your hydration needs. And its made-in-the-USA design, construction, and materials make this one of the best-crafted bags you can rely on for bailout use. Check It Out Condor 3-Day Assault Bug Out Bag Purchase Key Features Hydration-pack compatible Body contour shoulder straps Heavy-Duty carry and drag handle Specifications Materials Nylon Capacity 50L Weight 2.5 lbs EDC Rating 1838 ratings Price $ $ The Condor 3-Day Assault bag is the best choice for budget-minded emergency preparation. For its affordable price tag, you get a spacious 50-liter 3-day bag made of ballistic nylon that can stand up to rough use, especially in an emergency. With four side compression straps, you can secure the bag and prevent items from flopping around when the bag isn't fully loaded. The foam padding on the back panel is generous and helps with handling heavy loads on your back all day. And while the bag is inherently water-resistant, grommets are integrated into every storage compartment to allow for drainage in case water gets in from outside (or if a water hydration bladder or water filter punctures inside the bag during use).

Read More »Before jumping into our recommendations, here are a few considerations for picking out the best bug out bag for you. How big should a bug out bag be? A good bug out bag should have enough modular space to fit your gear without being too big or bulky to become cumbersome. Bags that are too small mean you leave necessary life-saving tools behind. And bags that are too big don't hold the gear inside well, making them unbalanced and hard to carry while you're getting out of dodge. If you prefer a fast and light approach, you can opt for a bag of around 5-10L in capacity. A fuller go bag that lasts an entire 72-hour evacuation period might hover around the 12-24L mark or larger. Durability: You need a survival bag that'll handle more than a few scrapes. If you use a fragile bag to bail out, you might find all of your gear on the ground after it rips and tears, which you're not going to want to happen. Look for bags with high denier ratings or ripstop technology that keeps small tears from being critical failure points for the bag itself. Easy access: The whole point of having a go bag is to use the items inside. If the bag you pick for the task requires you to stop and unpack everything just to get to the item you're looking for, it's not a good choice for your emergency EDC. Some good options have high contrast and high-visibility interiors, so it's easy to identify gear at a glance when you're in a rush. Versatility: There should be plenty of pockets and organization space available to keep your emergency gear organized, whether your items are big, small, or somewhere in between. Many bags in this category are compatible with load-bearing PALS webbing and hip belts, letting you further customize them with pouches and other accessories.
