The Best Minimalist Backpack | Tropicfeel Nest Review

Here is a review of my favourite minimalist backpack: The Tropicfeel Nest
My name is Carmen and I share videos about Extreme Minimalism, Organization and Decluttering. I sold almost all my stuff two years ago. Living minimalistic and getting organized has helped me to focus my life on the things that are really important to me, instead of constantly being overwhelmed.

thanks, not enough reviews of the marvelous backpacks! i also love ur excitement/enthusiasm & joy😁🥰

[@carmensegattini]

I’m so glad you enjoyed the review! 😊 I agree, there aren’t enough reviews on minimalist backpacks out there. Thank you for appreciating the excitement - I had so much fun with this one! 🥰

[@ZachAgape]

@@carmensegattiniyou're very welcome & I'm so glad you had fun☺️😁 I was wondering if you saw or even checked their new Nest 2.0, and how you think this compares to your beloved Nest?😄 Same question for their Nook? ^^ I just ordered their Shell to use as a single bag setup for long travels and I can't wait to get & use it🤩🤩 But I also wonder if I will also want to move towards the Nest (1.0 or 2.0) or Nook as I progress towards minimalism😄

[@carmensegattini]

@ I checked the nest 2.0 and I saw that they did some good improvements (better design, more stretchy bottle compartment). However there is some things that I don’t like with my current Nest 1.0 that I am not sure if they improved: it’s almost impossible to get rid of stains, mine looks not good anymore & the spider net in the front is to tight, it’s not really possible to fit anything in there. I will have to get a new backpack soon and I definitely have to dive deeper which one I’ll get. I am also thinking about getting the Airback. I hope you are happy with your shell? That was my first backpack from tropicfeel and I loved it! 🥰

[@ZachAgape]

@@carmensegattini thanks a lot for sharing your experience and thoughts! I wish there were reviews online comparing the 1.0 to the 2.0 so we could know what was indeed improved or not. my gut impression is that they did make the spider net more stretchy, but i have no certainty for it, and i wouldn't know about the stains. The Airback seems widely praised too, so solid choice as well! thanks!! I'll find out in a few days! I'm glad you loved it!😄🥰

Thanks for your kind feedback 🙌

I am not sure wich one to buy... I am between the nest and hive. I am going to used everyday to take my mac and clothe for the gym and swimming. But I would like to carry this bag in small trips aswell, any suggestion?

[@ZachAgape]

hmm, maybe base it on which of these 2 use-cases is your primary? if primarily day-to-day stuff, the smaller one is probs best, otherwise the larger one. Being minimalist on travel should make either work!

[@StellaMoors97]

I was really undecided between nest and hive. Hive is more roomy but I really don't like the laptop sleeve being in the front as I feel like that'll bebin the way when you open it.

[@carmensegattini]

I totally get your dilemma! Choosing between the Tropicfeel Nest and Hive can be a tough decision. It's all about finding the perfect balance between spaciousness and convenience. Ultimately, go with what suits your needs and preferences best. Happy backpacking!

[@amritasingh8033]

Will it be allowed as a personal item on the airplane ? In addition you have the carry on

[@carmensegattini]

Yes, for me it worked with every airline so far as it fits below the front seat :)

[@ZachAgape]

it might be tight for Ryanair which has veeerry restrictive size limits, but hopefully they won't check and u should be able to fit it under the seat even if it's technically over their limit for the hand bag

[@happygolucky6284]

Omg I’m the same height as you! But you look like 5’10’’ on your videos!

[@katesweeney9101]

Is the backpack in the video the 30L size?

[@carmensegattini]

Hey there! 🌟 The beauty of the nest backpack is its versatility! It comes in just one size but can be adjusted and used in different ways, ranging from 16-30L. It's a minimalist's dream for adaptability. Happy travels! ✈️
