EBERLESTOCK Combat Office Brief DRY EARTH

The Combat Office is the ultimate brief case for the road warrior. A tandem zipper easily opens the barn-door top, revealing a generously sized main compartment. An adjacent laptop compartment comprises the bulk of the remaining interior volume, but there are many more hidden secrets to this bag; it provides the kind of maximum versatility that you expect from Eberlestock. A Hypalon reinforced laser-cut MOLLE outer flap covers an array of 4 zip-or-buckle pockets mounted to a divider panel. Inside this divider is a nice organizer pocket, with dual-purpose compartments for phones/magazines (the kind for weapons; you can of course put the kind you read in several other places in the bag), as well as pen sleeves and small organizers.

On the back-side of the bag, an open-topped document pocket has a zipper at its bottom, which allows you to slip the B1 securely onto the handle of your rolling suitcase. The laptop pocket has full-zip-down pockets, allowing the bag to be split open for TSA x-rays without completely removing your laptop from the bag (you split it, and lay the bag in the x-ray tray with the laptop on its own side). The bag is scaled to be not-too-big, but not-too-small, making it a perfect every-day carryabout for your laptop and all of your gear. Topping it off, the B1 is probably the best conceal-carry bag ever invented, with a discreet magnet-closure pocket for your handgun (magnets make it quiet for entry and exit — this is what has been missing from all of the velcro-closure concealed carry bags out there!) We like the handgun pocket for stowing our passports while traveling also; it’s a secure place to get the passport in and out when you’re juggling your way through customs and other checkpoints.
