Great list. However, I'm based in Costa Rica and can't access Backcountry's website. :/

Anybody else just really like looking at backpacks even though you currently own all you need?

I go to university and I rotate backpacks just to admire each bags features

I always thought Topo's bright yellow interior for contrast was a bit of a gimmick. Until I used a large top loader that was just black. Now I wish every bag manufacturer would take a page from Topo's book.

Love the Fjallraven Raven and Patagonia Blackhole, but really eyeing that Timbuk2 Authority now, even though I have more bags than clothes already.

I really like the Osprey day pack.

As always, awesome video. Great to see a list devoid of the GF1 & Axiom 24.

Haven't bought it but I'm digging the Osprey arcane large day from a tonne of research the past week or so. Pros: Hidden, sleek water bottle pocket. Nice amount of organisation. Comfortable harness and unique ventilation system. Minimal, light and beautifully designed! Cons: Key chain location is not the most convenient. J-zip may take time to get used to. I'm about sold on it if it weren't for the many other great bags to consider.

what’s the max dimension size of a watter bottle that can fit the side compartment ? cause i have a 25.5cm height & 7.5 diameter bottle

Like the selection - for some reason I still watch all these videos while I'm still very satisfied with my Wandrd Prvke 21 for my daily not-going-anywhere-needs ;)

Personally i have the Cote& Ciel Isar. The back with the hidden zip is all business while the asymmetric fastening is good for your gym kit. Expensive? Maybe, but coool as...

That Arc’teryx Granville is interesting looking pack, I may have try one out!

I actually recommend Rei trail 25 unisex backpack. Retailing about $75, its a hiking backpack designed for shorter trips and casual uses, recommended with plain black color best for city use!

Hey Tom, Been a while since I committed. It's been a crazy time for the past few months. This is not a criticism because I get why you only covered bags available via the videos sponsor but I'd love a follow up video on the exact same topic but with a broader selection. Missing packs like the ArkType and various others doesn't really give a full view of the best available everyday packs. Other than that great content as always. Oh a d I'm looking forward to picking up one of your co-branded hoodies. I'm so happy it comes in xs even though the vendor is one of the most expensive in the space. I figure the quality will be there and I like the touched you added so it'll be worth it. Cheers, Christopher

Will you guys review nordace backpacks sometimes? Really curious what you all think. (mostly the siena but there's a whole bunch of different ones)

I just need a boring old backpack that stands up on its own and has one (1) XXL compartment to stack 3-4 various Tupperware like boxes in and a secondary compartment for other items. Fourth caveat is it must have a few external easy access pouches, the mesh water bottle holders count as long as they’re not tiny.

Great videos, I have bought many things because of your reviews, thank you.... I travel to 3rd world countries and in pic pocket areas and have bought a pacsafe sling which I love. I am now looking at the Venturesafe 28L G3 to actually carry stuff... I want to be able to lock valuables in it and lock it to something in the room just to deter a dishonest maid or whatever. Could you please do a review of this G3 and or other pic pocket bags and talk about keeping things safe please? Keep up the great work!

With the help of your video and one other I pulled the trigger on the Northface Borealis bag. Real excited to use it as my daily laptop bag and pack it full as a travel bag. Thanks for the video guy.

Why don't you review any Nomatic packs?

I've used the Mystery Ranch 21 for a year now and overall is a really well made pack. However, I find it very heavy compared to other 21L backpacks. Also, the tri-zip design probably is not the best choice for this size of bag. Most of the time I have to open all zips to access my stuff because the 'lid' is too narrow. So basically what in other packs would have been a quick gesture on this pack requires a more complicated (and closing) action.

Fjallraven Raven I can't find that color it's pink or red?

You obviously haven’t tested the durability where the straps connect to body. The north face and fjallraven rip if pulled away from body. This is a major issues with all north face bags. This is minor with fjallraven due to most of their stuff being durable.

Alguien me puede dar el link directo de la borealis y el mismo color como en el video ?

I have been watching a bunch of videos and I still can't find a backpack to meet my needs. I really want a side loading laptop compartment. This seems to be surprisingly rare. I just want to get my laptop out quickly. I want a good looking bag with some water resistance as I live in the Pacific Northwest. Just need enough room for my lunch and a couple of other EDC items. I need to replace my current bag which is disintegrating. It's a difficult search. There are so many options on the market.

Very beautiful and quality bags! It is very popular, we made these bags too.

Good vid. Prices for each pack would be helpful.

Deal breaker for any bag. Look at the size and strength of the zip and zip fastener thicknesses. Cheap Chinese packs use cheap ,plastic ,thin fasteners. Zip goes ,so does your backpack.

Fjallraven intended the side pockets not for water bottles but for umbrellas.

U-Mask!

A bit disappointed that you only included backpacks available at the sponsor for this one. Would have been nice to see some of the more less-advertised brands.

Never without a mesh back again.

After using it for a long time it's a shame not to see the Tom Bihn Daylight on here

I really like the Fjallraven Raven! Just not a fan of the back and not flat bottom.

What's a false bottom? 11:07

@PackHacker

3 жыл бұрын

Hey René, a false bottom is where the laptop sleeve or compartment ends before the bottom of the backpack. Basically, it suspends your laptop off the bottom of the bag. This means that if your pack hits the ground abruptly, your laptop won’t smack the ground as well. This is a huge plus and goes a long way in protecting your laptop. We talk about this more over in the Protection Section of our Laptop Bag Guide here: packhacker.com/guide/best-laptop-bag/#protection - Rebecca

Sad these bags don't have a luggage passthrough.

Timbuk2 has never had a good water bottle pocket on a backpack, not compared to Northface or Osprey at least. I own 3 Timbuk messengers but the backpacks have been returned, look good but... again compared to Northface or Osprey.

Hmm nah. This video just seems to be more concerned about weird and unusual backpacks than about any that are actually good. Who on earth is going to walk around looking like they have a flamingo on their back?

Still of the idea that Borealis sucks, had it for 6 month, worst backpack I’ve ever had, not able to stay up, the liters are a joke, only good thing was the overall quality of the materials
