Great versatile backpack
I fly hot air balloons and originally bought this to carry all my ballooning gear and electronics. This is a pretty tough task, and ended up giving to my daughter because i needed more admin. I ended up buying another one though because it works great in about every other situation, office, school, weekend trip, get home, etc. Only pack I have that can fit my 36oz Yeti Rambler. Excellent quality and features.

District 24
I had been searching for a smaller backpack that would be easy to use when traveling with my laptop on airlines. The product is excellent and is the best of all the products on the market for this purpose.

Great quality EDC bag
This is my first MR pack and I'll definitely be trying out their other offerings. I got the black colorway and can confirm as of this writing that it comes with the orange interior; I've seen reviews all over the internet that report different colored interiors so I thought I'd mention this. I probably could've done with the smaller District 18, but the larger 24 just gives me that extra volume in case I need it. The materials and construction are great. I have a 16" MacBook Pro in a heavy duty protective case and it easily slips in the laptop sleeve in the main compartment. I love how you can configure the main compartment to what will work for you. The main compartment will easily swallow up the usual stuff that I'll bring during a quick hike, exploring a new locale, or as a carry-on for airline travel. While the harness isn't adjustable it's actually pretty comfortable even with an atypical 25-lb load that I tried out for a day. Everyone is going to have their own wants and needs in this type of pack. That said, here are some things I'd change to my District 24 to make it as close to perfect for me: - I like to blend in with the crowd--think "Gray Man"--so I got rid of the bright orange pull tabs and added some simple black nylon pulls for the main compartment. The orange MR logo on the front still sticks out, but the black zipper pulls makes it way less conspicuous. MR could probably save a little by getting rid of the orange pull tabs, too. - Including strap keepers for the main harness would be awesome. Loose straps bug me. - I'd like to forego the front admin pocket flap's Velcro closure and go with neodymium magnets. It'd be quiet and secure. - I'd move the lanyard from the top compartment into the front admin compartment. The top compartment will easily fit (sun)glasses or eye protection, but with the bare lanyard there's a chance that the lenses will get scratched unless you add the extra bulk of a case. - Redesign the front admin compartment. I'll echo another reviewer's comment that it almost feels like this compartment was quickly designed. As mentioned before, locate the lanyard in there, reconfigure and add more pockets to include one or two with a zipper that'll fit a typical-sized man's wallet. Have one pocket next to the writing tool sleeves be sized to fit a contemporary 18650-sized flashlight. It seems like a lot of wants, but I'm truly nit-picking here to make this pack near-perfect for me for my purposes. I see myself using this and not wanting a new pack for a while (unless they release a new and improved variant).

Very well made
I bought this for air travel and glad I did, very well made and durable. Great feature that let’s you open it all the way without the front flopping over!

Side pockets shallow
Side pockets are too shallow. My water bottle slips out if I lay the backpack down. Would like more pockets inside. Like a high wide pocket inside the front panel. And some low ones inside the main compartment. Thank you.

Good Features but not the best execution
The front pocket does not lie flat. It is forever creased and it does not seem like it was well thought out. If they could fix this as well as some of the slit pocket organizational features this would be a 5 star product. Only feature missing is a luggage passthrough, which I wish more backpack designers would incorporate.

Overall one of the best backpacks I’ve owned
Great durability and construction. Good amount of storage and interior compartments and pockets. I like how you can access the front compartment from the side and you can open up main compartment from the top or open it completely up. Wish is had some small loops on the outside or straps to hook things to. Overall very happy with the pack

Great product, quality, price!
Now that it has been used for a few weeks, I can say I continue to be impressed with Mystery Ranch. The quality is excellent, from the materials to the construction. It is fairly light when empty, yet very sturdy. It is great for taking to work or travel.

EDC perfection
As someone who has spent well over 20k on luggage (I’m grateful I can) this bag is close to everyday carry perfection as it gets. I travel a lot and I’m in cars, planes frequently and the way this bag is thought out with pocket layout and design is grea and makes life on the go a lot easier. Firstly the layout and design is great, the look of the bag not being tactical but stylish and functional is also great. A few minor improvements for the second version. Wider shoulder straps for heavier loads, and higher water bottle pockets. Apart from that congrats mystery ranch on a job well done!

Stupid question, maybe, but how well does this pack work with stuff sacks and pouches? Thanks.

What are the square buckles on the shoulder straps below the load lifters for? They form a “Y” in the load lifter strap if I slide them up and down. How do I use them for fit adjustment?

What are the dimensions of the laptop sleeve? I have thick 17.3" workstation that does not fit many bags.

Are all the district 24 interiors bright orange or does that change with the color of the bag?

What's the distance from the attachment point of the shoulder strap to the highest option for the sternum strap? My wife has an older UA 18 and a newer UA 26 & the sternum strap on the latter is hard to adjust so that it's above, not on, her bust.
