I bought an Olive and Dark Oak M23, along with the matching Dark Oak Shoulder bag. My son has since 'claimed' my Olive M23 and Olive waxed canvas Kit Bag as his travel set. I am giving my 21L GR1 Samurai a rest and using the Dark Oak M23 as a daily. So far I am really loving the extra organization and I absolutely love that the front pocket on the M23 has its own volume and is actually usable. I keep am IFAK there is a wire dopp for quick access. The GR1 slant pocket is so limited in use. As for the shoulder bag, I love the look, but prefer the layout of my original cordura shoulder bag.

The problem is that the Heritage line is inconsistent. The waxed canvass shoulder bags were originally marketed as Heritage, but aren't now. And when you later put out "heritage" kit bags with leather bottoms and accents somewhat similar to the heritage GRs, it causes confusion. So I totally it when people are confused.
@JBOutside1

Yep. It’s a little confusing so I try to be clear. But anything listed as just “Waxed Canvas” is MiV and “Heritage” is MiUSA. At least so far that’s true
@joegonzales9053

This confused me as well. I have 8 Heritage products from GoRuck, and 4 waxed canvas products from them. I always thought that Heritage meant MIUSA. With that, the MIV waxed canvas M23s and shoulder bag are advertised as 'waxed canvas', but both say 'heritage' on the tag inside. I am perfectly fine with 2 different lines, and would prefer the Heritage namesake be kept for MIUSA stuff.

Leather bottom has been a GR1 Heritage thing. None of the M22s or M23s have ever had leather bottoms. I was just making a note of it…not a critique…hence my “that’s fine”. And the zipper layout is well done in my opinion and that zipper placement wouldn’t work
