Thule Accent Backpack 26L Review (2 Weeks of Use)

[@Miguel-iv5iq]

I have been using this backpack for the last six months and I can confirm it is a great backpack

[@samuele5931]

Is it scratch resistant? despite being in polyester it should be really thick and resistant so I don’t know what to expect.

[@Miguel-iv5iq]

​​@@samuele5931t is resistant to potential scratches using it in the city, but not to scratches in a forest. It is not really thick.

[@luc4sbueno]

How has been your experience so far? I am trying to decide between this backpack and the Samsonite Biz2go.

[@sorbet512]

Just found this channel/video. What a great and in depth review. Subscribed! :)

[@PackHacker2]

Thanks for watching! 😃

[@evgolovin]

it's been a hard choice for me, but your video helped me a lot. more than happy with Accent 26l, thank you guys!

[@PackHacker2]

Thanks for watching! 😃

That top pocket with the removable tray is awesome. I dont remember seeing other bags with something similar. Perfect for me as a glasses user though I wish the bag itself was a little shorter

[@samuele5931]

Swissgear have something similar. I don’t know why they are overlooked by pack hacker and other reviewers

[@DianaLebeau]

I think there is a 23 Liter version.

[@PatrikEdelberg]

Do anyone know which swissgear backpack?

[@Outlier666]

A really, really excellent review. So-much-so, I bought one and it matches as described.

[@rjbramirez]

Seems the link you provided for Amazon now provides a slightly different designed backpack. Some of the Amazon reviews can confirm this as well with people hoping for the bottom front and back pocket. Can you confirm? I used to have the 23L. It broke in transit during a house to house move. Figure it's time for the larger version. Thank you for your review! It convinced me to help decide which Thule bag to get next.

[@jimthomson9044]

when packed, does the bag "stand up" -- does not flop over on it's side?

[@svetmar9785]

is it waterproof? i cannot find info about this anywhere sus

[@FreddyZambrano-zg6vs]

Great review, very Informative, and helpful.

[@PackHacker2]

Thanks for watching! 😃 -Eric

[@fernandoa589]

Is the laptop compartment suspended?

[@sbimochan]

Why thule changed the inner blue color in new Accent?

[@ucumele]

Compare to Chasm 3 which one is better if i want to carry shoes and clothes for sports?

[@samuele5931]

Why not go with a travel backpack from Thule?

[@spinvalve]

5:55 was legit surprised to see Singapore dollars in there 😮

[@PackHacker2]

🤙🤙🤙

[@DsCheng81]

Haha same

[@yyoohh]

Water resistant ?

[@Mo.Jo.]

I'm considering this backpack as a personal item bag to go under the seat in front of me on flights - is it really going to fit underneath? Looks big to me.

[@59jll]

Same question....

[@franciscloutier5387]

Will this fit under an airplane seat as a personal item? Seems a bit large, but I did see this bag mentioned in one of Pack Hackers' personal item bag recommendation vids

[@antoniobotello4996]

Well said, can you do a review on THE MANHATTAN PORTAGE EMPIRE JR BACKPACK, MISSION WORKSHOP MESSENGER on the RUMMY and KHYTE?

[@PackHacker2]

Thanks for the suggestions! I’ll pass them along. -Eric

[@luc4sbueno]

Trying to decide between this backpack or the Samsonite Biz2go. Which one would you recommend for daily use/work/commute?

[@sebass1372]

Thule Accent 26L vs Thule Enroute 26L. Any thoughts?

[@samuele5931]

Accent for work, the enroute for work and travel (if you don’t care to travel with an expensive backpack)

[@thatguywholeftacomment6532]

If you guys get the chance i think it’d be great to review the Lululemon multi-wear commuter backpack It’s a rly interesting backpack/messenger/briefcase hybrid like the black ember forge, everyman hideout, or others but since it’s both new and online only there’s not a lot of reviews out on it. Id love to see you guys look at it considering you’ve reviewed other lululemon bag in the past

[@PackHacker2]

Thanks for the suggestion! I’ll pass it along. -Eric

[@jhonnyalex29]

Is the backpack water resistant? Does anyone know?? Can it stand rainy conditions?

[@joco9958]

Yes it can

[@fa-pm5dr]

excelent review

[@PackHacker2]

Thanks for watching! 😃

[@frank21cn1]

I actually like the design.

[@PackHacker2]

Thanks for sharing your insights! 🤙 -Eric

[@notapro968]

Great review, you come across as honest and thourough

[@PackHacker2]

Thanks for watching! 😃 -Eric

[@NPofficer]

Featuring a $10 Singapore currency note behind the Safe Zone! 😂

[@rolang4434]

Isn't that the Singapore dollar in that front pocket compartment? You took this backpack to Singapore? lol.

[@normang663]

It looks good and I used to love thule 6-7 years ago. Today their quality has vastly deteriorated

[@samuele5931]

Why?

[@normang663]

@@samuele5931 for me, within months there were already loss strings.

[@jackieallen3766]

Pack Hacker is excellent except for a serous omission....The Waterproof Test. If a backpack promotes itself as being waterproof or water resistant then I want to see it packed out with stuff, a load of water being tipped over it and then the Reviewer checking to see how dry the contents are. Only then am I interested in looking at the finer details. I have seen this test on other review sites for other backpacks but not for Thule. If anybody can point me to such a review I would be grateful.

Hi Pack Hacker & Community. I have the North Face Recon 2021/2022 version which I love and my OCD gets on with. I was looking and bag reviews as always trying to find a bag to beat the Recon, A few weeks ago I found the Air Pack 3 Bag and though that was going to be the new King. I saw this review and the air pack has been side lined and this could replace my Recon. Does any one have the Recon and this Bag or had the Recon is the past few years that could give me a feed back. Or Pack Hacker could you do a side by side review or each bag. Also they have a 28 L version how much bigger is that and could you do a 28 L review video Pack Hacker ?

[@PackHacker2]

Thanks for the suggestion! I’ll pass it along. -Eric
