Insane roundup as usual. Have been looking to up my pack game, but with all the awesome options out there it gets a bit overwhelming. Trying to decide if I need an EDC bag or a smaller travel bag with some highlighted here on my list (Peak Design Travel Backpack 30L, Alpaka Elements Pro) and the rest pretty much smaller siblings of what you have in this video. Primary use cases are driving into the office, taking my toddler around town, and traveling with a carry-on suitcase + backpack. When going into the office, I carry a 13" MPB, notebook, iPad, 18oz Yeti bottle, and a couple of pairs of glasses in cases. With the kiddo it's usually that, plus her extra clothes, plate / utensils, and a water bottle for her. When we travel, her stuff goes in her own backpack, but I add a 13" MB Air 2 (personal laptop), and usually a couple of packing cubes. Must haves:- Clean look for going into a tech office- External water bottle holder(s)- Separate laptop storage area / suspended laptop storage- Luggage passthrough- Quick Access pockets (preferably easy access to laptop) Sorry for the detailed info, but would love to see your recommendation. Love your content and looking forward to seeing your bag come together!

Excellent presentation...It could very well lead to a late, very needed Christmas purchase...question about the insurance: on our last trip we had a big bag delay (took 5 or 6 days to reunite us with the lost bags) on a trip to South Africa (frequent travel destination). Because the trip was so busy, we didn't get around to filling out all the paper work until after the "time limit" to file a claim. Is your insurance better than that? Really felt nickled and dimed out of a proper claim.

@@Nomads.Nation what's the biggest 35L you own? I've backed the Transit Line as well. Trying to decide if I go for the 45L or the 35L. I took the Elements Travel pack 35L with me for a week to Portugal and found it pretty good and comfy. It fits under an EasyJet seat too. Kinda want the same from the Wandrd but not sure if their 35L will pack more without expanding. Their other 45L hexad access is great but its a big box and that one I definitely couldn't get away with under a seat lol

@@Nomads.Nation ok here's something interesting or maybe not. I was checking tortugas website and the listed dimensions of both the 40L and 30L aren't indicative of their capacity. The dimensions of the 40L indicates 38L volume (capacity might be less due to padding and shape as with all bags) and the 30L is 30.3L so realistically probably a 26-28L bag. Where's I can see other brands dimensional volume is more than the listed capacity as it should be. E.g Able Carry Max is 33L volume but listed as 30L due to shape and padding. What's Tortuga playing at then?? 😅

@Nomads.Nation

@@agent_pires I'm no expert, but like you said there are often other factors that cut into the volume of a bag (like padding, pockets, features, etc). The only real way to measure the volume of the bag is by doing this (www.osprey.com/stories/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Screen-shot-2012-03-05-at-10.32.43-AM.png) which I trust Tortuga has done

What a great roundup here. I got the 40L Aer Capsule pack after seeing your review (its no longer made, but they still have the 35L on final sale). I love that thing because I like having one large space. Though those Sympl and Wandrd bags, I can see a case for having two sections, as you get good visibility to everything at once, once opened. Also sorta serves as built in packing cubes if they have the mesh over the section. I'm the sort that unpacks the whole bag at my destination, but if I moved rooms a lot and kept everything in the bag and just worked outta there, I'd like those two. I never got the underneath the seat front bag thing, like, my feet belong there. If its a long flight that would be unbearable. I wonder if people are just traveling over weekends.

@Nomads.Nation

So stoked that you love the Capsule - I was sad to see it get discontinued. Having a bag underneath the seat in front of you isn't necessarily about comfort, but more about traveling with a bag small enough to never have to be separated from it... ever

The OG Peak Design Everyday 20L backpack is the best backpack for travel, hands down. The latched opening top is amazing when flying, you throw the backpack on its back under the seat in front of you it is dead easy to grab snacks, food, a jacket, anything and open and close that top easily. Also because the top capacity is expandable via that ladder latch system it makes it easy to throw jackets and sweaters in there. The side storage in the side flaps is awesome too and you have the hidden straps that act like tie downs for external carrying stuff too.

Actually I wanted to buy the Tortuga Outbreaker. But unfortunately it is no longer produced. The successor has 5 liters less volume. They remove the 2 front pockets and also the rounder corners are less stylish for that backpack. Very annoying. Unfortunately, that puts Tortuga out of the race, for me. I like the way you present the Gear. Keep on going with what you do ! Greetings from Germany.

Oh man, how'd I miss the review of the Wandrd Transit 🤦‍♂️, they should have the 30-35L which might be better suited. If I didn't already have a Prvke 31L that would be my bag. Random ?, do you have any reviews up of bags with rollers too?

IMO any > 30 L is too much, otherwise get a suitcase w/wheels because your bag will likely be too heavy. If you insist, revisit because you’re likely overpacking, and if you insist even more, I guess that’s your style after all :)
