5 Fantastic Everyday Carry Backpacks - EVERGOODS, Peak Design, Bellroy, Aer, Black Ember & More

[@evang9708]

You should do a section, on how well it's designed for weight distribution, I bought a backpack a while pack and found it tiring to carry and heavy on my back. I've since switched and my new backpack, which doesn't stress my back and feels much lighter, as the weight is more evenly distributed. If you plan on spending good money on a bag like this, this should be a key consideration.

[@zero11010]

19:08 I sure hope that’s the future of tech focused backpacks! I shouldn’t have to be buying separate organizers to organize my bag.

[@aedreezy]

I like how you mentioned "camera enthusiasts" for the Peak Design backpack. I think it would be a great idea to have a compilation video like this of backpacks for camera enthusiasts like me; where we carry minimal photo gear (dslr+1 extra lens)with a good amount of everyday gear!

[@RushfasterTV]

That's a great idea! Thanks so much, Drea. - Prikee

[@birazan]

Exactly what I’ve been searching for. Mirrorless/dslr plus one extra lens and lots of everyday gear (laptop, iPad, water bottle, maybe a jacket). Don’t need a dedicated camera section taking up half the space but would be great to have a dedicated SMALL section for camera. Thinking about a good backpack + camera insert/cube - but a built in dedicated space would be great! Even better if it’s somehow detachable into a smaller camera bag :) 😆

[@trustnugget280]

@@birazan The WNDRD PRVKE 21 is a decent choice for that in my opinion. It's a 21 litre everyday backpack with camera cubes in variable sizes which you can buy alongside in a bundle. There's a compartment for one camera and an extra lense (or two), a medium sized compartment which fills a bit less than half of the bag and one cube that's filling the whole bag.

[@Thedimka]

Thanks. I wish you'd mention how light or heavy those bags when they are empty. Some backpack can add an extra two kilos and that would be deal breaker

[@RushfasterTV]

Thanks for the feedback, we are always up for improvement so we'll take this into consideration :) - John

[@angelffalcon3134]

*thanks to your other vid... I bought myself a patagonia refugio. Use it every day*

[@marekvitek4633]

These are nice, but I prefer the rolltop backpack because of its versatility. Now I am using CarryNaut Nomad, and I love it. I want to get Braasi Evo II in my backpack collection in the future.

[@diego7438]

I use a Samsonite red Voy, I have tried many other but I alway come back to this one.

[@macemalakai]

Just the video I was looking for, thanks!

[@RushfasterTV]

Glad that you liked it! - John

[@opakraw]

I just have the anello backpack. It's like one big hole where I can shove all my things. I feel like pockets slows me down during packing hahaha but these are great backpacks. Might invest in one soon.

[@rowanford8141]

i use a tom bihn. i love that it is built around the water bottle as a full 32oz hydro flask is heavy and having it on a side pocket through off all the balance. only wish the laptop pocket was against the back. i like stuff to lay flat in my back

[@dman378]

I loved my Tom Binh. Absolutely amazing bag which my wife hated because of the styling. Quality was different level.

[@caseylee4097]

Appreciate your reviews. If you had to choose one backpack to wear for a whole day walking around which one would you say would be the most comfortable physically on your shoulders and back to wear?

[@serenity8910]

What would be a good compact (18L or less) everyday bag? I don't need a laptop compartement.

[@hellydavidson7598]

Thanks. Any recommendations for replacing my beloved blade 30 travel backpack? His stability is insane.

[@mejonny4]

Could the Aer Tech Folio 13" fit in the Aer City Pack ? I have the City Pack on the way and was thinking of adding the Tech Folio as a laptop sleeve.

[@neilattuk]

No mention of the Tom Bihn Synapse and Synik ranges. Excellent EDC backpacks - so much organisation and storage and extremely good construction. Why?

[@RushfasterTV]

Thank you for mentioning the Tom Bihn Synapse and Synik ranges! They are truly fantastic EDC backpacks with excellent organisation, ample storage, and top-notch construction. Although we might have missed including them in the video, we appreciate you highlighting their remarkable features and benefits. Your input is valuable, and we'll definitely keep these backpacks in mind for future recommendations. Thanks a lot for watching and sharing your insights!

[@daniel-lee888]

I love my Vanquest Addax 25 (also available in 18L). I wanted size but not massive and I wanted multiple compartment pockets instead of a single main storage. The Addax ticks all these boxes except for external water bottle (which I carry internally anyway.)

Deuter Up Seoul - laptop compartment with false bottom, internal and external bottle compartment (but not usable at the same time), two conveniently placed external pockets, some light organization in main compartment (not over engineered), some weather resistance, not too big (but can expand if needed), can fit gym stuff, comfortable, nice design and colors to choose from, very affordable, lifetime warranty, made out of recycled plastic bottles ❤️

[@ayalaz1500]

Thanks! I wish they had an anti-theft pocket in the back. Most of them don’t have it and its a deal breaker for me 😕

[@RushfasterTV]

Hello. Thanks for your feedback! I totally get how an anti-theft pocket would be a game changer. I'll make sure to pass your suggestion along to the brands we collaborated with. Hopefully, future designs will include that feature! Cheers!

[@abv1986]

Great video guys and I don't even like backpacks. My everyday carry is a duffle from Waterfield designs, but partial to a messenger or sling. Keep the top 5s coming.

[@RushfasterTV]

Stay tuned for more. Thanks so much, Aidan. - Prikee

[@graben_]

I'm leaning toward the black ember citadel but also considering the peak design everyday

[@RushfasterTV]

Go for it! Thanks for dropping by, Robin. Cheers!

[@arthurosipenko8332]

Great vid! Trying to choose between Peak Design backpack zip and Aer city pack

[@RushfasterTV]

Good choice!

[@wizerdjuice9589]

Any 3 way/convertibles on the list ? Backpack with a shoulder strap.

[@Almi6hty]

I love my peak design v2 30L every day backpack.

[@JacindatheGreat]

I'm rocking a Moleskine duffel & bookbag; absolutely love them so much man

[@braaap690]

Nice review! Consider the 511 LV18. Excellent EDC and very good quality! Love it!

[@jorgegrave5208]

Yo deje de usar mochila desde las 20 años no me gustaba esteticamente y eso que compraba lo más top. Pero esta combinación de mochilas tech me hicieron volver a comprar mochilas y siempre estoy comprando las que pueda y son geniales para el día a día y para el trabajo etc. Xq ya no estudio. Pero para un estilo de vida en movimiento como es el mio se tardaron pero al fin las diseñaron.

[@AniruddhaUpadhye]

Mark ryden 3 pocket backpack is my everyday carry

[@zykov.v.r]

thank you for the very cool videos, thanks to you I fell in love with Peak design bagpack, we are thinking with my girlfriend to buy a couple of pieces

[@RushfasterTV]

That is awesome! Thanks for watching. - Prikee

[@LokGop]

What about a backpack by heimplanet? Im thinking to buy the Heimplanet transit 28l. As a teacher I need a bigger backpack with some organisation compartments. And because I live in Germany this backpack is the easiest for me to get without paying any taxes.

[@tanjiayi8069]

Awesome video. Could I ask what is your height pls? To get a sense of the relative height to bag comparison.

[@RushfasterTV]

Hi there! Ed is 5'10.

[@dtdaun]

Black ember would've been perfect but waterbottle next to my laptop and tablet is such a no go, can't understand why they do that. Difficult to find a bag that fits 15-16" mbp and 12.9" iPad pro with suspended pockets and separate water bottle pocket.

[@RushfasterTV]

That's good to know! Thanks for the feedback.

[@tully667]

I am old and have a bad back. What about ones that ROLL?

[@TheresaNelson]

Have you ever reviewed the AWAY backpacks that work with their luggage for travel?

[@RushfasterTV]

Thanks, Theresa. Hopefully soon!

[@zukskiok]

I've seen many bags review. Pardon me for saying this.. When you sat down and do the review, and you position those bag further ahead of you...the bags seems to look so large though you mention the capacity about it.

[@meng_120]

True

[@CenterThePendulum]

Crazy that we live in a world where we can see people even demo something as trivial as a backpack. Are you not getting the scale portion by seeing him wear it? Because of flight stowage restrictions I always have to search the actual dimensions. This guy’s a smaller frame in general so seeing him wear doesn’t give me a lot, to be fair.

[@clioraphaelpascua2350]

What’s the name of the pouch that you are holding in the thumbnail? Thank youu :)

[@RushfasterTV]

Hello! It's the Bellroy Tech Kit in Limestone colour (a compact version is also available). See it here: bit.ly/bellroytechkitrf ;) - Del

How can I buy this bag ?

Hey Chan! Which one do you like?

[@jemstar33]

Im surprised the 5.11 Tactical Rush12/24 backpack didn't make the list. It's a great backpack with tons of storage and durability

[@IzumiInouemaestro]

Been carrying my Bellroy Apex backpack for 2 years now, definitely my favourite so far!

[@RushfasterTV]

Awesome! Thanks for sharing. - Prikee

[@IzumiInouemaestro]

@@RushfasterTV Also, I was eyeing it for a few months before getting it. It was after watching Rushfaster’s review that I finally decided to go for it.

[@liorajacob8094]

Wow that's a costly bag! Do you feel it was worth the purchase versus other good quality bags that are half the price?

[@IzumiInouemaestro]

@@liorajacob8094 I don’t really have a solid answer to that. Before this I had a Crumpler Hidden Retreat which I only used for a few months. And before that I was always rotating between briefcases and messenger bags. The Bellroy is definitely an upgrade; quality, design, size and functionality-wise. Also it’s one of the very few backpacks that doesn’t stick out like a sore thumb in more formal settings.

[@liorajacob8094]

@@IzumiInouemaestro good to know, thanks

[@daveysam]

Great video, only issue are the timestamps on the slider....

[@RushfasterTV]

Thanks, David. Can you please tell us the specific issue with the timestamps? - Prikee

Great reviews ! Would the The North Face Borealis fit in this list in your opinion ? Also I might get it soon, what do you think about it as a multipurpose bakcpack (travel/remote/EDC) ? :)

[@mattlau]

Was going to get the Peak Design, but ended up WANDRD

[@mickling]

Bellrroy melbourne or aer day pack 2?

Aer Day Pack 2!

Have you heard a brand named “life behind bars” ? I think they have some interesting backpack and messenger bag design functionality. Can you review them?

[@ArnauViaM]

That bellroy backpack plus looks interesting, no water bottle though, right?

[@sudobear]

I have the Plus. The water bottle holder is inside the bag

[@alvinbartolome1239]

Awesome list! Now do the same for everday slings (big and small) plesse. Thank you.

[@ElChronicler]

Hey Alvin, they actually did one recently: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6qlZn-Oq81gipY

Got Aer’s City Pack X-Pac on sale. I can’t wait to get it already! Quick question, does the YKK zippers become easier to open overtime?

[@BlueToronto]

The inside of that bag is fire! Lol. It looks good, I prefer it to that dull Bellroy orange.

[@Serious365]

How much did you pay for it? Where did you find a sale?

@@Serious365 Paid $140 I believe. Aer had a 20% sale during black friday.

This bag is stated at 14L but looks more like 20L, any explication or clarification from any of you who own the bag?

[@gugamd]

Tom Bihn Synik 22. Best of all.

[@kenfung8551]

I’m very much convinced that AER, Alpaka and other Chinese brands are under the same company. They use so much of xpac materials with that bright Orange interior…

[@humanrich]

Reviews I've read talk about how unreliable the Bellroy Melbourne is. I love the look and idea of it, but have been put off buying it because it sounds like it can't be trusted to stay closed. Any comments about that?

[@jotomato]

I LOVE my Bellroy Melbourne backpack. I recent got it and went on a 2 day trip. Tbh I do understand peoples concern with the magnets but it’s actually pretty strong. Normal carry through the city is perfectly fine. I never got issues with it opening. In fact, I’d say it’s quite fun to open and access my items. I packed my backpack about 85% full.

[@motmagique]

@@jotomato which size do you have ? Compact or normal

[@jotomato]

@@motmagique The normal one. But it looks nicer with the compact if you're petite.
