Is Pantac worth it?

[ILLusion]

Pantac makes awesome stuff. So awesome, that there are some real world LEO and MIL units that specifically use their chest rigs.

Some of their bags are pretty nice as well.

The only products in their line that I haven't been impressed with, are their clones of Maxpedition pouches.

Pantac is great for airsoft and other stuff. It'll take all the punishment 95% of people can dish out at it. I've got a rig or two, some bags, lots of pouches, etc... All heavily used and still going strong.

I bought a hydration/knapsack in 07 (I think...) used it continuously for years for gaming/woven on a CIRAS/used as a backpack/etc...and it looks worn now (i.e. bit faded, bit fuzzy) but no broken zippers/straps/clips/stiches.

Put it this way, my opinion is such that I'd buy those same items again from PANTAC....if the ones I have now would ever wear out.

Maxpedition is pretty hard to beat anyways.....I've had a work/carry bag that I use constantly and it looks brand new. I bought a knapsack to use as a BOB and have used it for every AS game (sometimes with a M4 strapped to the side), bike ride and day trip since and it too looks brand new. Their stuff is pricey but tough as nails.

I've got an old plate carrier with the 'Phantom' label on it still, to give you an idea of its age, and it's in great condition still. It's been painted a couple times, but nothings worn down or frayed even. I bought it used a couple years back and it's never failed me. Can't go wrong with Pantac I don't think.
