Topo Designs Rover Pack Mini

[@aldenrose5290]

Love that you turned it inside-out 😂

[@PensandPaint]

Great video! You're the fist reviewer that actually packed tech that made it useful to me. And now that I have seen your video I'm sold on Topo. I have a couple of their packs but not these two. Great job!!

[@NaturallyNerdy]

Thank you!!

[@Jennifer-wr9si]

'it doesn't fit much'. Subjective but really grateful for this review. I generally find most of the 'small' EDCs are too tall/big for my small frame and don't consider that not everyone carries around their laptop/tablet. Small, light, aesthetically pleasing backpacks are for me more like handbags (because I hate handbags) - for my ILC camera, wallet, umbrella and water. The mini topo canvas seems to hit the spot. Though that cyclo sling looks pretty cool...

Thanks for that great review! I just ordered the rover mini in mud colour in canvas. Also ordered the mini duffle and the mini quick pack. I’m hoping to find a way to connect them to the rover even though they don’t have the D rings like the bigger pack has.

[@NaturallyNerdy]

THANKS!! You might be able to connect them to the top and bottom loops of the mini. Let me know how it works!

[@abaeran]

There are flat water bottles that I like to use with that style of side pockets!

[@TexasSlinger]

Great review. I saw this pack at the DEN airport and sat on it for a bit. Found the desert mars color for half off on their site a bit later. Looking forward to using it.

[@NaturallyNerdy]

It’s a useful little pack when you wanna carry lite. I hope you enjoy it!

[@CesarTorres13]

Awesome review thank you

[@bloodcell6282]

Nice video!

[@EliasZuniga]

Awesome video. The connection of these two bags is so hard to find on KZbin, and the reason I will be buying these. Thank you!

[@NaturallyNerdy]

Glad it was helpful! And enjoy your bags!!

[@KevinGomban]

A detailed honest review. Very informative. Thank you..

[@NaturallyNerdy]

Thank you!

[@abelcampa9344]

I think the MiiR 23oz water bottle would be a good fit for the side pocket

[@NaturallyNerdy]

Looking at the dimensions the 23oz Miir is bigger then the 9oz swell bottle I used in the video. The side pockets are pretty tight. The 23oz Miir might fit inside the standard Rover Pack.

[@RobertBeitner]

Awesome and really complete review. My only question is could a 13" MacBook fit into the sleeve if you gave it a lil shove? Trying to find smalleat backpack that I can still carry my 13" MacBook in. Side note, you should check out chrome industries. I have a bunch of their bags and really really love them (I have a bag problem)

[@RobertBeitner]

Smallest*

[@NaturallyNerdy]

Thank you! My 2012 MacBook pro fits inside the bag but not in the sleeve. I’ve had chrome on my radar for a while and I have a bag problem too!

[@sleepnclass]

Thanks for this video. I’ve been holding out on picking one up until more reviews went up. Love how bubbly you are it’s great. Do you think it’s better than the Fjällräven Kanken?

[@NaturallyNerdy]

The shoulder straps are far better on this bag but I LOVE my laptop kanken. I’ve used it both as a edc and travel bag. I’ll post a video soon covering my kanken.

[@JohnLaudun]

Liked if only because of pointing out the water bottle pockets. Thanks!

[@NaturallyNerdy]

I was really bummed out when I unboxed this and saw the side pockets.

[@plaidski]

@@NaturallyNerdy Topo needs to gusset the side pockets.

[@tyler.cosmos]

Awesome review. Backpack lover here. Currently using the klim Nac pak and loving it…Skinny water bottle pockets can be a hassle. More often than not a small flat flask type water bottle works best with backpacks anyway maybe you could give that a try. Right now I’m just looking at other backpack options (even though I am not in need of one….)and stumbled across your video.. I have been considering the 511 amp 10 I’m totally in to slim bags though.

[@den2335]

Could you please do a review of the topo travel bag 30L?

[@NaturallyNerdy]

I totally can! I’ve been thinking about to be honest.

[@HarmonyDashut]

Do you think a 13" Macbook could fit inside the main compartment?

[@NaturallyNerdy]

My old 13in MacBook does fit inside the main compartment. It won’t fit inside the sleeve.

[@HarmonyDashut]

@@NaturallyNerdy Thanks!

[@NaturallyNerdy]

Harmony Dashut glad to help :)

[@tylerdurden965]

i can fit a m1 mba

[@jamaalnyc]

Do you think a macbook air would fit in the sleeve?

[@NaturallyNerdy]

I think a MacBook Air would be a tight fit. The only issue is....you won’t be able to carry much else inside the bag...because the bag capacity is limited.

[@tylerdurden965]

i can fit it quite well in the sleeve (m1 mba)

[@morganewigglesworth82]

Would a phone fit in the side slip pockets? I have a pixel 4a it's not super big.

[@NaturallyNerdy]

Depending on the bulk of my phone case…my iPhone 12 Pro Max does fit in the side pockets (sorry for such a late response)

[@luismanuelcanchola94]

Hello. Do yo think that an IPad Pro 12 inches will fit?

[@NaturallyNerdy]

If the case was thin...I think it would be a tight fit. You wouldn’t be able to keep much more in the bag.

[@luismanuelcanchola94]

@@NaturallyNerdy ☹️ well I think I will be continuing with my search for a discreet bag. Thank you so much 😊

[@NaturallyNerdy]

@@luismanuelcanchola94 you should check out the Topo Designs light pack...it’s around 16L and can totally fit a iPad Pro 12in...

[@tylerdurden965]

i can fit a m1 mba

[@RealMuperSan]

It just seems the bag is a bit too small..?

[@NaturallyNerdy]

The bag is pretty small. I consider it a well build version of those purse like backpacks they had in the 90s... or a backpack with the capacity of a medium size sling bag.

[@mdubb4855]

10 liter!!!

[@NaturallyNerdy]

Yup! It’s small. I consider this a purse like or purse replacement style backpack.
