no Cotopaxi???
I don’t even travel but I absolutely love travel backpacks.
How have I watched a dozen of these videos, and they are all filmed in Hong Kong?
Do you have a video for good bags for the city? I like that expandable bag you mentioned but I’d like to see more options. I bought the tortuga bag 40L because of this vid but would like something for the city when I travel
I was just wondering… is there a reason why you guys don’t review Pacsafe bags?
is there anyway that I can have one of these? the ones that you sont want or use anymore…😊
Hey thanks for this video! I was wondering if you have any recommendations for long-term travel backpack that has a good utilization of space and does not include a laptop sleeve? Thank you!
First time seeing your vid. Love all the shots of HK, which is where I went (halfway around the world) to buy my Able Carry 😅 US was out of stock. I like it but…the quick access pocket is too big (can’t find stuff), the top quick access pocket is too small (can’t fit a hand in to get stuff), water bottle takes up too much inside space, and the tech accessories pocket is too tight when it’s packed out. I still like the harness, the weatherproofing, and the big main compartment. It worked for 50 days around the world, but I think I’ll need a different bag. Lesson learned. You know the feeling. I really wanted this to be THE bag.

I want to know if whats better, a legit motorcycle backpack, a tactile backpack or a rock climbing backpack, can anyone let me know what they think. My girls black diamond has been used and abuse for the last 3+ years has still held up but its super uncomfy. Bullet 16. My pannier bag from kriega is super nice so i thought about a motorcycle backpack. Nuce quality and comfy
Awesome video, as a 60% traveller I prefer the Osprey backpack, even though I am a dude. Apart from that, as a Serbian, I am curious about what happened in Serbia? Even though it’s not my fault, I apologize for the possible inconvenience caused.
Hey Aaron! I’m new to your channel and am loving your reviews. Great info and great vibe! Definitely a minimalist. Traveled the world for a year many years ago with a Gregory 2 Day Pack. Simple clamshell. Still in use today! Looking to upgrade. Very interested in the Pakt 35L and Tortuga 40L Pro. What about the Tortuga 40L Light and the new Expandable versions? You did mention Pakt attracts dirt and pet hairs. Also, wondering about its comfort and support for longer carrying days. I get the feeling the Aer Travel pack 3 is your preferred at this time. However, what do you feel about the clamshell opening compared to the suitcase style on the Pakt and Tortuga? I’m so grateful for your input! Mitch
Amazing that a lot of these are not available in Canada.
Dear Aaron. How much does it cost Air Travel Backpack 3 at August 23/2024.
Best
Water bottle holder? You mean beer holder?
Don’t say there is a link in the description every minute of the video
I love the peak design as it can shrink to 30L and expand to 45L with a default 35L. And just loaded with features and high quality. The problem with the Aer is if you buy things abroad you cant bring them home, there isn’t enough space and ability to expand. The straps are more comfortable on the Aer, but the Peak Design is more practical and the straps fold away quicker. For airport to hotel to hotel the Peak Design is comfortable enough (long Treks no) but more comfortable straps would be nice. If the Peak had better straps (and sternum strap) it would be the juggernaut, and still may be.
water bottle holder holds a large nalgene or bust.
No Peak Designs?
Hi Aaron! Thanks for this review. I used to travel a lot with a backpack (just an affordable decathalon) then I switched to the rollers and now, after having a baby, I’m back to looking at backpacks. I want some thing for longer travel, minimalist packing: 3-4 pairs of clothing for my self and a 1 year old, a laptop, small snacks and water bottle aiming to keep it at 20lbs. A lot of this is geared to digital nomads and it’s hard to figure out what’s best for a mom. I’m thinking tortuga or pakt but there is just so much information out there and lots of strong opinions. I also considered Cotopaxi but I see they haven’t made it into any of your videos. What recommendations do you have?
Travelling with a 30L bag is a terrible idea if you plan to buy any souvenirs. I always travel with a 40L, but I only pack it with under 30L worth of things.
‘Bag circles’? ‘Carry community’? Some people need to get a life.
Awesome review brother! Thanks answering my emails. Family is all set for Southeast Asia! Thanks! Chester
Since when have we started paying 300$+ for basic ahh backpacks?
"to tell you why I’ll bring in a lady!" (wasted all the time not telling us why then moves on)
I’d like to hear the Serbia story.
good to hear you like the backpack we made
I need a large water bottle holder!
Would be great to see a review on the decathlon forclaz 500
@Nomads.Nation Love to get your Kickstarter back… can you make it happen before December? All I do it travel on the road.
I bought the Alpaka recently. I enjoy it as a work bag to haul my work laptop and gaming laptop. It works well for that, but it’s too small to fit enough clothing for more than an overnight for me.
What about Kaka bag?
Hi, for you witch one with thé best backpannel confort?
how many hundred(s) for a backpack? LOL, LMFAO. No, just no.
Any recommendations for backpacks with shoe compartment
wow! no bellroy?? 🤣🤣
Why not review Samsonite Modern Utility Travel Backpack?
Isnt samsonite one of the renowned brands?
Insane prices for basically carry on daypacks 200 – 300 $ for a little piece of material and some zips , when you have some things from Pro case like the 42L Large Capacity Military Tactical Backpack for around 35 $ , one of those lasted me for over 10 years , through Asia and South America , just needed a cheap rain cover , you need to do a review about those sort of affordable daypacks
Hi guys, can you please also review the Venture backpack from Solgaard pretty please ?
Ugh, why do you travel bloggers never show if it can connect to a carry on or fit under an aircraft seat?
None of these bags are sold in Norway. Maybe because we have local brands that very good for the traveling we do. Have you heard of Bergans or Helly Hansen? We also have very good outdoor gear brands like Norrona or Hopping.
Thule 40l Aion didn’t make the list?.. great travel bag and looks great as well.
Everyone always sleeping on the mystery ranch mission rover line
You think the TomToc 28L bag is worth it? Would like to use it as Personal items bag for short trips.
Hello Arron, thank you for the video. I am very interested in durability. I am former military and have had experience with 5.11 and Goruck bags, are these comparable? I don’t think I need the Molle straps anymore, but do they add to durability?
What do you think of Samsonite Detour?
Looking great Casey!!!!
Por qué nunca hablan de nomatic que es la mochila más organizada que existe tengo la de 40L y en todas las líneas aéreas es compatible como carry on super versatile
if it weighs over 3lbs, it is a scam.
two ladies in Serbia, what can go wrong?
