[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This bag is surprisingly nice looking and practical. I was looking for a bag for a trip where I will be walking a lot. I wanted to carry first aid, laptop, and spare clothing. I looked at many bags but after reading various reviews and YouTube videos decided to test it. I first purchased a 31 liter bag and then purchased a 21 liter bag later. The design, color, and practicality is amazing.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love my Wandrd PRVKE 21L bag! It hold all my gear securely and I never have to worry about a little damp weather because of the weather resistance materials. Also, I got compliments on it at least once a day when using it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hey guys. I've been using the PRVKE since you probably didn't know about its existence, so lets share about my experience.Lets start with the Cons:- it's heavy by itself. All the great materials and UX decisions take some negatives: it's mostly about size and weight. So if you decide to use it as regular backpack with the main function to carry additional weight - this is not optimal. Good water proof cover and all the staff weights something so it's not right item to go to groceries store.- in 3-4 years the major zipper will die. Either because you love the backpack a lot and over use it or just because the design is flawed with carrying the most weight on the zipper without any balancing or supporting functional item. I hope designers will thing about it for the next version.- hidden pocket for the passport is not protected from the moisture, sweat or rain. I you actually try to use it as a travel backpack for you photo tour you should be keeping all your important documents in the internal space, not the hidden one - that's a rule.Now about the Pros.- it's durable. 4 years of full-time use and it's the only zipper died. which is a very big pain, but still, the rest is just working pretty well and as it should. I will add few images to show all the problematic areas I notices over the 4 year usage almost 24*7.- to be more precise about the usage. After the purchase I did 1 month ski trip where I used it as major backpack to carry everything I need during skiing with my friends. then I spent 6 months of traveling in europe where it was the only piece of baggage I had, the I spent 6 months of business trip in south asia where it was the only travel bag for me where I used it for grocery or travel needs.So overall it's very durable, very well designed and absolutely very well priced item.If the zipper doesn't fail I would say it's the most valuable purchase in US for me over the years.P.S. Just bought the next generation (version) of the backpack to have it for the next 4-5 years.

I have really enjoyed my camera bag on the last trip that I took! I was looking for a bag with more capacity since I use to use a sling and a smaller 18 L day pack. But I recently went on a much bigger and longer trip with a lot of varying temperatures and this bag was great for every day use with my mirrorless apsc camera!! It seemed to held up well even in the light rain that we got and the padding of the camera cube helped me to not worry about my camera getting damaged! I've been quite happy with it even if it did start to seem a little heavy after 18 miles with like 7 kg or 15-17 lbs of stuff in it. Having expansion on the top was also super nice!!
I recently took this bag as my main carry on a trip to Japan! The bag was great. I got the 31L because I use to take an 18 liter backpack and a 6 L sling. I wanted to have a singular bag for trips to make it easy and this bag worked really well. I liked being able to stuff a sweatshirt or coat for the day in the top. I do wish that there was a little bit easier way to store the waist straps. I just had them on top of the camera cube. Getting to my camera was great and this bag did great whether it was on a plane, on my back during a fast bike ride! Now with its size, it can get a little heavy. Mine got to be 7-8 kgs or 15-17 pounds which after all days was a lot but it never got too uncomfortable. The chest strap is a great addition to help with the weight. It also fit pretty much everywhere I needed it to like on planes and whatnot. It also took the little bit of rain like a champ!!
