    I just received this bag today after buying it used on poshmark. It was advertised as a 25L but I thought it seemed small so I was sitting here with my measuring tape trying to do the conversions from their website when your review popped up. I noticed the mistake on the weight as well. Turns out mine is an 18L. However I quite like it and think the 25 would be too big. Major con is the top handle. Wish the logo was black. Haven’t used it yet but overall I really like it.

    Luggage pass through looks better with bag upright, but sideways is more practical at an airport if the bag features quick access pockets

    • @Nomads.Nation
      @Nomads.Nation  Месяц назад

      I respectfully disagree. First it depends on where the pocket is and which direction it is, but then the entire rest of the bag is going to be a bitch to access (unless in rare situations like the Evergoods CPL where the laptop is accessible via the side

    We really like watching your reviews.
    Would you consider to be more 'in depth' including as a category, the safety of every backpack?
    And what about some kind of content creator category?
    There is a lot of people interested in low profile backpacks, that doesn't scream expensive gear inside and it's hard to find channels taking about non photographic bags and inserts that can fit inside in the way you do. With the quality of your work and your personal style, I think you would succeed 😊
