Spacious Everyday Pack
The UA Coalition 2.0 is a handy daily storage solution designed in durable Under Armour style. Available in a range of men’s styles, the Coalition 2.0 offers a simple dual zip fastening and elegant exterior buckles for a fashionable and functional finish. On the inside, there is a large main compartment with a TSA-compliant laptop sleeve for safe laptop transportation.
When it comes to ease of use, the Under Armour Coalition 2.0 excels. The Coalition 2.0, like the Huey 2.0 Backpack, has a cushioned back panel and compression-fitted shoulder straps for complete carrying comfort. A sturdy front sternum strap and a handy top handle round out the Coalition 2.0’s carrying features.
Durable polyester finished with UA’s Storm technology makes the Under Armour Coalition 2.0 Backpack resistant to the elements and highly water-repellent. The bottom panel of the UA Coalition 2.0 is also made of strong, abrasion-resistant nylon for added gear protection.
Overall, the Under Armour Coalition 2.0 Backpack is an impressive storage option with an array of large compartments. When compared to a similarly priced UA option like the Hudson Backpack, the Coalition 2.0 Backpack stands out with its large storage capacity and external buckle security. Additionally, the UA Coalition 2.0 has a fleece-lined valuables pocket for concealed valuables storage.
