+## Backpack reviews
+
+Focus:
+ + Durability/longevity
+ + small one for caving / everyday
+ + ~ 40 l medium one, also airplane carry on
+ + ~ 75 l big one, groceries / trekking tours
+ + I EDC depending on mood, but even 75 l, have to walk 10 mins to the car, and got used to it
+
+### Osprey Farpoint 40 l
+
+My first "good one", lasted almost 5 years (daily use), back straps broke on an Italy-motorcycle-tour when i probably packed too many beer cans into it.
+Laptop compartment isn't really protecting... never really used it.
+
+### Tatonka Laptop Backpack
+
+Lasted some years, great protection for 15 " laptop. A bit small when trying to fit something else in there when laptop present.
+
+### Kelty Redwing 44 l (black)
+
+<img src="attachments/2020-06-23-182943_Backpacks/redwing.jpg" style="width: 75vw">
+
+Current medium backpack (2019+), lot of space, had to bend the aluminium backbone a bit to match my backbone, but then it was great comfort.
+
+Never used the girdle (closed the clips bending around the backpack instead of my hip) as it's never that heavily loaded.
+
+You need to think a bit of where to put stuff to keep an aesthetic form though. Somehow when wearing it it looks like an Eastpak school backpack.
+
+### Gregory Baltoro 75 l (blue)
+
+<img src="attachments/2020-06-23-182943_Backpacks/baltoro.jpg" style="width: 75vw">
+
+Current (2020) big daily / trekking backpack.
+
+Awesome fit (for me).
+
+Looks awesome, but you'll get looks from people when using it in the city / as a daily. That's why i also wear a $IndianaJones hat to kill last doubt in people on what to think of me :)
+
+Never tried a laptop in it.
+
+After ~7 months of daily use the material on the two main shoulder belts is a bit worn, but i often didn't use the tensioner that goes in front of my breast, so there was a lot of rubbing against my clothes. Anyway, this seems to get worse...
+
+
+## TODO / Wishlist
+
+### Small / caving backpack
+
+- ideally something that holds a water-tight canister and can be dragged without getting stuck easily.
+- maybe EDC-able without looking like a barrel...
