Love these backpacks. My husband and I have owned a couple of them in the past. I just ordered two new ones, one in summit gold and black and one in blue and black. I paid $70 each at Dick's Sporting Goods. I couldn't resist the vivid colors. Our previous ones were all black, so it will be a nice change. I absolutely love the versatility and the size of these packs. We don't want or need anything huge, just something for when we travel that can carry our water bottles and essential items that we want to have on hand at all times. It also fits my 13-inch MacBook Pro perfectly. They are great for hiking as well.

Great review! thanks a lot for sharing such a deep description and features that the backpack has

You do great reviews, but it seems like every backpack review I have seen, the pack is black which makes seeing the features difficult. Whenever possible, you should try to use lighter colored ones. Nonetheless, I really think you reviews are great.

Great review! I bought this bag because it had a laptop slip instead of a whole separate compartment and I especially appreciate that you show the specific difference between the mens and womens packs. I'm curious if they are the same color, because the womens looks somewhat lighter in color than the mens

Just watched your updated TNF Borealis review and this one and they're both extremely informative! I'm a bit torn on choosing the Borealis or the Jester and there's a site where I can get the Borealis for 10 Euro more than the Jester. Which one would you recommend on getting? Also was wondering if the Borealis was wider/thicker than the Jester. Cheers for the review and the input!

@RushfasterTV

4 жыл бұрын

Great question! The best way to compare the two bags is the features and compartments. The Borealis has 3 main compartments (organisation, large cargo, laptop) whereas the Jester only has two (organisation, large cargo + laptop). Here are the dimensions of the bags: Jester: 50 x 34 x 19 cm Borealis: 50 x 34 x 25 cm Some things that the Borealis has that the Jester doesnt': - A top fleece-lined compartment - Removable waist strap - Compatibility with a hydration bladder - More dedicated device protection (tablet, laptop) So even though the have a very similar volume capacity (28/29), the Borealis has much more organisation. On top of that, the Borealis typically has more hard-wearing materials in the construction. Check out the Rushfaster links in the descriptions for more details! Hope that helps! :) - Ed

Wow, guys, your videos are really high quality. A definite subscribe from me, exited to see this channel grow. I've got a couple of feedback points, tho. Please try to share some concerns you have and possible drawbacks of the items you're looking at. Right now it feels like you're just selling these things, but if you also serve up critique in these videos, you'll feel like more of a trustworthy source of info, and the KZread community might just come to you to see whats *really* true about these items, as opposed to just going through the features and selling points as though you just want people to buy from your store. Also, some outdoor shots would be nice, just some varied b-roll would look great. Fantastic stuff, tho, guys. BIG UPPS.
