I like the back panel and I like the quick access pockets.
No external bottle pockets though.
I think I'd get very bored with that roll top very quickly.. fun for five minutes..

[@dannypacks]

Thank you for watching and definitely a fair point! That’s how I feel about roll tops in general, I prefer clamshell and top loading bags for sure

[@seechangenyc280]

Interesting! Great review, as always. Sleek look. Rare in a roll top but I don’t think I’m a roll top gal yet. I was looking at the smaller 3.0 but I’m drawn to bags that hold their shape, stand, ride high and tight (like my Gorucks or Evergoods - which don’t fit me) and have super comfy straps. Doesn’t look like either Minaal fits the bill. Top choices, no bigger than 21L, equally as sleek? Cheers,

[@dannypacks]

Thank you for watching! The aer city pack is probably my go to for a smaller edc that fits some of those characteristics but the cpl16 looks pretty cool as well (haven’t had a chance to try it out tho)

[@taonmm1934]

How much

[@seechangenyc280]

$249

[@evgeniydeus8137]

The question is: why is this roll top? Looks like it's purely for the style, which I think is not that great of an idea to be honest.

[@dannypacks]

Thank you for watching and fair point! I’m generally not crazy about roll tops and Minaal already nailed it with their daily bag 3.0
