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

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.

Actual 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.

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…
