For the M26, we took the crowd favorite M23—the top load, exterior pockets, front buckles, and bombproof laptop compartment—and shared some initial ideas for modifications with our favorite group of gear dorks (said with love!) on the GORUCK \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSubreddit\u003c\/span\u003e. Hundreds of comments, suggestions and DM’s later, based on YOUR feedback which we never could have done ourselves, we finalized the design. This is the first time we’ve ever done anything like this, and we loved the process and are GRATEFUL for the input.
