Lightweight short range packs with plenty of options

Pine Survey Review: TT Sentinel 28 and TT Sentinel 40 by Tasmanian Tiger

(…) The Tasmanian Tiger TT Sentinel 28 and 40 backpack are two light short range packs with a single main compartment, which can be closed by a zippered roll top closure. It features laser cut MOLLE sides, two compression straps as well as anadditional zippered front pocket.

The inside features laser-cut velcro MOLLE. Both waist belts are detachable – while the TT Sentinel 28 only features wing type waist belt, the TT Sentinel 40 is fitted with a sturdy belt, equipped with laser-cut MOLLE.

Conclusion: Tasmanian Tiger went a new direction with the Sentinel packs. While they might look like tacticool EDC packs at first, they also serve their role in a military sphere, especially when larger items need to be carried, or if one needs a pack for a quick exfil that doesn’t allow the luxury of putting everything in a dedicated pocket. While the TT Sentinel 28 is ideal for smaller errands, hikes, transports etc. the TT Sentinel really shines when a larger volume is needed. The rolltop design makes it easy to expand the packs when needed, or compress them down to a smaller size. As always Tasmanian Tiger provides the user with plenty of options to modify the packs to personal needs – be it laser cut velcro MOLLE/PALS on the inside, or MOLLE on the outside. In that sense, the company managed to pull another stunt – creating yet another pack that can serve both the civil as well as the military sphere.
