This bag is bomb proof. Big enough to fit a bunch of stuff, but small enough to be a carryon. Great design. Plenty of pockets and organizers. Plenty of little thoughtful features throughout. All of the straps and the hip belt tuck neatly inside flaps on the back of the bag. I can't think of a single improvement.
I bought this bag a month ago and it’s amazing the design the thought put to the details of this bag. This one bag is all you’d need for your travel adventures.
best backpack and answer the most questions in this era!!!! I'm not going to talk about its use. Since you can easily find it from reviewers all over the world... But what I want to offer as a customer That's the best after sales service. And you must be impressed with the service of the team for sure!!!!! Trust me because I have proven it. from...customers in Thailand
This bag was my first attempt at 1-bag travel. I was able to fit everything I need for a week-long trip in the 35L (non-expanded) mode. I used it with a large packing. I’ve, small packing cube, shoe bag, and large wash bag. It fits easily in the overhead bins, and is comfortable for carrying. The ability to shrink it to 30L (“daypack mode”) once you get to your destination is a nice touch. If you need a bit more space, using the lashing straps to attach a shoe bag or wash kit on the outside works well. The variety of pockets is great once you figure out how to best make them work for you (watch the video for ideas!). The laptop sleeve makes you forget you even have it with you.
Bought this pack about 2 months ago after purchasing the Peter Mckinnon everyday bag. In comparison they are both very high quality and definitely justify its price. I purchased this one because I wanted something a bit bigger that could carry everything without having to sacrifice taking things with me. Zippers are very good qulity. Storage space is hilarious as there I just keep finding more room to put stuff. side access is great as it works with my rather large canon r5c with a small rig cage and a 70-200 lens. It is rather water resistant as well. Someone spilled a drink while the bag was on the floor and it didn't get on the inside. I switch between both bags as this is too large for under the seat of a plane.
I bought this for a two week trip around Brazil (complete with packing cubes). It was great. Relatively lightweight and comfortable to wear. Easily fit in overhead carryon compartments (when not making larger with extension zip) in all planes from an ATR prop plane to a Boeing jet and everything in between. Tons of pockets to stuff things. Pretty durable - after 15 days of being thrown around various planes, trains and automobiles, nothing broke on the backpack or feels like it is about to break. Loved the ability to access main compartment both directly and through the front pocket.
I bought this backpack specifically to carry my photography equipment during travels. In addition, I purchased the photography cubes too. Perfectly designed to fit inside backpack with provided stationary clips to keep cubes snug in bag. Plenty of useable pockets and double side water bottle/umbrella/tripod pockets.
Like the pack, the water bottle pockets are great, hold big bottles. I feel it's a bit heavy with the magnet part that holds the straps in. I recognize that could be a nice feature to some, but I could do away with all that. It would be nice if it had load lifters, it can be quite heavy when full. The waist strap pockets are very small, don't even know what you'd put in there except some coins. I like it maintains its shape and the expandability of it. When you unzip the the full zip to get the additional space, the space is added into the smaller side of the divider with the pockets, not the main part, which was disappointing. I like the safety features for the zippers, which all the zippers were better quality. The one thing I really dislike is there is no handle at the top of the bag! There's one off to the side of the top, but I always find myself grabbing for the one that should be right at the top, and it's not there. quite frustrating!
