Our verdict

Reasons to buy

  • Slim-looking yet stylish bag. It can also fit a lot more than it looks.
  • Amazing construction and made with truly sturdy materials that would last a long time.
  • Weatherproof build that would protect your things from all elements.
  • Covered by the company's lifetime warranty.

Things to consider

  • Quite expensive.
  • The shoulder straps could use some more padding.
  • The exterior water bottle compartment is missing.

What reviewers said

  • "Spent a few months looking for a *USA-MADE* ~20L backpack for bike commuting, EDC, and first response. Not much out there can even come close to this backpack. If you want a bag that is made in the USA, constructed like no other, with a lifetime warranty - stop here. Mission Workshop knocks it out of the park with these bags. I own a few other USA-made high end backpacks/bags, but this one really takes the cake."

Mission Workshop Sanction Review: An Urban Backpack Of Choice
medium.com
Want a backpack rucksack that goes above and beyond the call, will last for years, and has a smooth interior lining that can kiss your prized gadgets (or your inseparable food)? Those are some of the reasons to look into the Sanction, closely. It’s worth the price of two Benjamins and some change — let’s be honest — not many other bags do this much for this cheap, especially with the choice of materials and build quality.

Overall, it’s a great piece for the Urban Hiker — one who treks through the sprawl of a big city with many places to go, lots of people to see, and an endless list of things to do.
