An alternate use for the shoe compartment is to throw in a hydration bladder in there, then route the straw out the top pocket and fix it to the lash point. Then the water bottle holder is your backup hydration

The Aer Go Pack 2 is better in my opinion. For a day pack, easy access is important as you're wearing the pack most of the time - that Aer pack has the large external pocket. Also the two water bottle holders.

Aaron, not just you, but not digging the YT trend of the "coming up" intro thing. You already have chapter stamps to refer to and I always skip over the coming up part. Others may disagree. But the review parts are informative and awesome as usual! My 2 cents.

The Tortuga Packable Backpack is essentially this but cheaper and more packable. I see others saying Aer Go Pack 2 as an alternative daypack, but I consider that a compressable (flat) backpack that is in a slightly different category than ones than can fold up into a packable small cube.

Its interesting, I went through a period when I was buying and trying a lot of "packable" bags. For backpacks that have no back padding (like the aer go or rennen ripstop) this longer tube shape seems to work out. My favorite compressible bag that I've tried is the similarly shaped Cotopaxi Batac (has 18L and 24L sizes). if you can live with the crazy colors, the batac is a good price, has some of the best thin straps I've tried (they somehow made thin straps have good structure and support) and has double external bottle pockets. This one has that nice Bellroy look and materials, I love a "brain" type pocket, those are prob my fave type of external pockets.

You basically have a PhD in compressible bags at this point 😆

$140 USD seems like a lot for a simple bag. For the price PU coated zipper seems right. I would buy the same backpack with less exotic materials and regular ykk zips for maybe half the price. Most nylon materials have a coated backing, so it’s going to be mostly water proof anyway. I own something similar and you are right, perfect for travel! Water bottle pockets are easier to load when the pack is not empty! Lol. Thanks for the videos.

@Brian_Lau3 ай бұрын
I like the organization of the outside pocket and the sternum strap. A second water bottle pocket/zippered pocket on the other side would be nice for quick access. Maybe another dump pocket inside would be helpful also. Overall, too steep in price for what it is 🤷🏻♂️

Thank you for sharing and reviewing this bag. The price is a little steep for what you get for sure. I prefer no water bottle pocket on the outside, for me it’s bulky and two would be heavy and bulky. Inside for my water bottle works. Would consider the other Bellroy lite bag for less money.

I'm trying to choose between the Osprey stuff pack, Matador refraction and the Bellroy lite ready pack! I want it to be comfortable, breathable, durable & packable. I would like to be able to store it in the Aer travel pack 3, and use it as a personal item if necessary and in my travel destination. I want everything 😂😅!! Any suggestions?
