Nomatic Navigator Series 15L Backpack Review!
The Nomatic 15lt Navigator series backpack.
Even though we have been fans of the brand, Nomatic, from the start and we are lucky enough to own a part of every range since the first product, the basics wallet, which was launched on Kickstarter in 2014, this is an 100% honest, no holds barred review of the product. We own multiple brands of bags, however, because the Nomatic backpacks ticks so many boxes for what we need in an everyday tech bag, this is what we choose to use and what we would recommend to any of our friends, family and now you.
The navigator series was launched on Kickstarter back in January 2020. We had to get on board and back the crowd funding project, purchasing the everyday bundle which included the Nomatic navigator series 15lt backpack, 1lt sling and the tech organiser.
Unfortunately, like we said in our review, Nomatic have now stopped selling their products across Europe due to legal reasons but going forward we hope to see them back over here again, even if it is with a different brand or name.
So, the give-away! You might all be thinking Nomatic gave us the bag because they wanted a good review, and a little golden nugget would sweeten the deal. Well, no that’s not the case. The back story is that when we received the delivery in October 2020, there was an extra 15lt backpack and tech organiser in the box. Naturally, we contacted Nomatic to let them know and they came back and said, “it’s our fault and we don’t want to put you out, so just keep the bag and enjoy”. Now that’s what we call customer service!!!
As this is our very first review on KZread, we thought we would celebrate by giving away probably the last ever Nomatic 15lt Navigator series backpack that you will be able to get your hands on this side of the pond. Now, we don’t know when this is finally going to be shipped, but if you are the lucky winner of this amazing bag you will have to say thank you to Sam for giving it up. You can do this by posting a picture of yourself and your prize on Instagram and tagging ‘the mantis boys’ so we can share it on our story and give you a shout out on the channel…
Make sure to follow all of the giveaway rules and regulations. In a month’s time, we will announce the winner on a #mantismonday.

Great video, guys! I've been looking around for a more in depth review of this pack. One question for you, how would you rate the straps/harness system on this pack? When the pack is loaded out, is it still comfortable to carry? Thanks!

Hi Matt! Definitely still comfortable to carry. The sternum straps help a lot with weight distribution and our bags are always filled to the top!

Hey Matthew, yes 100%, the straps are really comfy, as you have probably seen in the review my bag is rammed and heavy and I never get uncomfortable on my bike or just commuting... any other questions just let us know...
Good video. Wish I had seen this before I bought my daughters university bag. Could you recommend any sleek camera bags please. Keep up the good work 👍

She has been made an offer for Oxford university, this bag would be ideal for her laptop, and her other tech whilst walking round the campus. Was just about to look them up until you mentioned at the end that they are not available 😞. Gutted. Stay safe. Looking forward to more videos 👍

There are millions of amazing camera bags out there, the main thing is to have enough room for all your gear so DM us a message on our Instagram and ill give you a few options
I've ordered mine but as a few reviews has pointed out, there's something crooked about the front of the bag. I've seen two other reviews where it lookes scewed thanks to bad stitching etc. I can see that even your backpack is a bit warped or whatever we can call it.

Tried this out for you today 👍 Yes It does stand empty but does such a better job of it with a small amount of weight in the bottom. The positive I took from it is you don’t need that much in your bag for it to be pretty stable… Peace ✌️
It would be nice to invest on a mic for your videos. There are parts where I can barely understand what you're saying
