Bellroy Transit Workpack 20L & Evergoods CAP2 Review and pack out

Some new gear, packing out the Bellroy Transit Workpack 20L as my everyday and moved all my pouches over to one pouch, the Evergoods CAP2/Civic Access Pouch 2.

So bummed the water bottle pocket isn't properly external - would've been a favorite if so. Thanks for the great vid, you've got a new subscriber! I'm patiently waiting for a hopefully smaller Evergoods CTB.

Thanks for checking out the video and subscribing! Good feedback too. I would agree they are not my favorite bottle holders...Evergoods gets the trophy for best water bottle holders and I would love either a smaller CTB or a latptop pocket on the CHZ26...also for the Bellroy I am having some trouble with the straps slipping as I carry it especially with one shoulder. I need to look into what I can do to resolve that...it's almost too easy to slide the straps.

@@Bowmanthebagguy My exact thoughts too. The double-stitched hidden elasticated lip, the tiny hole for passive debris to escape, I mean, wow. Perfectly over-engineered, haha. The CHZ would be a brilliant lighter EDC, but I just can't live without my separate laptop area. I was really tempted by an AER 20L, and also the Pakt 22, but no one does comfort like EG. My dream bag for lighter EDC would be a CTB20 or 18 with a more padded top handle, side handles, small bottom handle, a better quality key leash, more reinforcement on the top of the straps, and zipper garages for better protection against the elements. But, to stay on the video, haha: Showing your realistic load-out with an overhead shot that offers great visibility - that was just awesome. So many reviewers neglect that part or just quickly brush over it. Very nice work!!

​@Bowmanthebagguy What do you mean they are slipping? Like off your shoulder or the straps aren't locking into place after adjusting length?

[@Bowmanthebagguy]

@@tacticalpencil Thanks for checking out the video! So whenever I am moving with the bag on my back the straps will continue to slide until they reach the maximum length that you could adjust them so the bag then sits as low as it can on my back. I was fortunate enough to find a company that created a strap keeper...I did a quick video showing the slide and adding the keepers on my bag. They work amazingly!

@Bowmanthebagguy Damn. I had the same problem with another backpack but I returned it immediately. This was only on one side of that specific backpack. I think it has something to do with the teeth. You're a lifesaver. Is this a known issue with Bellroy backpacks?
