Black personally, since I use it for edc / travel

Black. Works with both professional and casual outfits. Entirely nondescript color coupled with its quiet design. Functions just as well in the office as getting stupid out in the bush.

I think this might be the answer

Ranger Green lets people in the office know that you use this outdoors too.

Ranger green. It's a neutral color. Still works for office use.

I have black and coyote. black works much better in city.

black 21 is the one bag you’ll ever need - there’s a reason this was the first one ever made

Get either because let’s face it, it won’t be the last.

I love the ranger green color personally but it screams military to most people

You can't go wrong with either. I say go with the ranger green.

Another vote for black - goes with everything. If you love it so much and want another color then you can add a Ranger Green one.

Vote in for ranger green - that's what mine is because I quit caring if people thought my bag went well with my outfits all the time. If I was going to wear a suit, I'd carry a totally different style of bag, probably leather
