[@noradurst5317]

Finally! Reviews of these products by a woman are waaaay too few and far between. Thank you!

[@whatveewore]

You're so welcome!

[@juliec4897]

I appreciate you showing off the bags in movement and with different sized electronics! I was interested in the transit one and it was great to see a lady's perspective on all the bags!

[@whatveewore]

So glad to hear it ☺️ The transit bag is the BEST in terms of its compartments!

[@katherinezulick8637]

Finally, pack reviews by a woman and someone who isn’t 6 feet tall. Thank you! One request for future videos would be time stamped markers between each item to make scrolling to a specific bag in the review easier. Thanks again!

[@katherinezulick8637]

I see there are time stamps in the description…thanks!

[@whatveewore]

I’m so glad you enjoyed this one! Ah yes, the time stamps are in the description as you’ve discovered xx

[@littlepuns]

I'm a 5' woman who commutes EVERYWHERE (my commute to work is 1.5 hours). I appreciate your perspective as a fellow petite woman. Thank you for taking the time to put together this functional review in typical Vee fashion. Currently debating between the Totepack Compact and Via Workpack. Not me consistently rewinding and pausing the video to see how the bags sit on you.

[@whatveewore]

Thank you so much! Meanwhile, you're not alone navigating the Tokyo Totepack vs Via Workpack debate. I have the larger Tokyo Totepack so there was more of an obvious difference between the two styles you're currently trying to decide between. But the general gist is - Via Workpack - minimal; Tokyo Totepack - more compartments. Hope that helps!

[@littlepuns]

@@whatveewore I ended up purchasing Via! It arrived today and was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks again for your review and input!

[@whatveewore]

@@littlepuns yay! I'm so glad to hear!

[@juanitab7076]

I love this channel! So glad I found you.

[@szyby98]

such a thorough review! awesome 👏

[@juanitab7076]

My son and I are going to Europe this May. I just placed a Bellroy order from your links so we have some great bags to bring along. I am so excited to get my order. Thanks for all the research!

[@pyroxblaze]

Such a great video! I'm the same height/size as you so seeing you model the different bags is much much appreciated! Thinking of the Tokyo wonder tote to replace my extremely well loved and decade old Longchamp for work

[@whatveewore]

Glad it was helpful! I think you’ll find the Tokyo Wonder Tote to be a huge improvement! 😍

[@yeahilovebread]

Really appreciate the laptop fit test! 16 inch MacBooks tend to fit in 15 inch laptop sleeves so I really appreciate that you showed it in practice!

[@lakeishabridgeman1103]

Thank you so much for your video! Finally a woman with many Bellroy products and you're a mom. :-) After I watch your video a few more times I can narrow down my choice. Thank you again.

[@GeorgeAtanassov]

Thank you so much for this wonderful review. Very good overall look and orientation into the range. I have bought few Bellroy bags and agree with what you say 100%. Keep up the good work. :) Also very refreshing to hear a woman's perspective on the bags.

[@whatveewore]

You are so welcome! Thanks so much for watching!

[@willow6151]

I literally clicked onto your video because I also couldn’t find a video on bellroy bags by women 🥺so thank you for making this !!!!

[@ladymelayna]

Great video, Im so glad your vids exist for us shorter ladies. I grabbed the Bellroy system work laptop bag during Covid when I couldnt go in store and check it out. Wish the wonder tote existed then as it seems more structured than the system. The strap length changing around and extending drives me nuts. Im contemplating one of the backpacks now I do more commuting. Thanks again for the Vid!

[@whatveewore]

Yay - i'm so glad you found it helpful! Ah yes - I'm so happy I have backpacks on rotation to facilitate comfortable commutes - zero regrets there!

[@SimplyAlethia]

This video is extremely helpful! ❤

[@whatveewore]

I'm so glad!

[@niniison]

thank you ! Best review I have ever seen

[@whatveewore]

Glad it was helpful!

[@jenhutch7982]

Perfect timing! I'm on the hunt for a new work bag and can't decide between Tokyo Tote (love the compartments for random items) and Via Workpack (love the clean look)... Current bag is on last legs so need to decide!!!🤣

[@whatveewore]

Oooo how exciting! Both are great bags - it all comes down to preference. Choose your own totepack adventure. I do love the compartments of the Tokyo Totepack but I did use my Via Workpack today to keep things pared back :)

[@chloelee3550]

Thanks for the great reviews! May I ask what color is the tokyo tote? Slate? Can’t find anything close on their website…

[@c.grande6552]

Superb review! I will purchase the bags -backpacks have only been using the SLG’s!

[@whatveewore]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@mickaeljolo6567]

Hi ! Thank you for this big review. I hope everyone who’s looking for a bellroy backpack will watch your video

[@whatveewore]

You are so welcome!

[@deborahpowell3454]

Enjoyed this video. Thanks. I’m in the market for a travel tote. Do any of the totes have a crossbody strap included.

[@HannahFoll]

Thank you! This video was really helpful. I’m also 5’2. It’s hard to find professional bags that are made for our size.

[@whatveewore]

You are so welcome!

[@byshagi]

wow so many bags . luv the video

[@whatveewore]

Glad you liked it!!

[@michaeldunigan5839]

Love that you showed all the laptops fit in each bag. I bought the Transit Workpack (20L) and the laptop compartment didn't fit my laptop so I had to return it and I ordered the 28L version and it fits great!

[@whatveewore]

Thanks for sharing! There is a size difference between the 20L and 28L transit bags - i'm glad you find the right size!

[@SHates]

Living in Bellroy heaven!!!

[@whatveewore]

hooray!!!

[@alwaysaik]

Hi Vee ~ a great round up of so many Bellroy bags I have been eyeing (especially the tote). I couldn't agree more about trying to find reviews on the TOKYO TOTE backpack - they were all by guys - and so hard to gauge if it would still be sytlish and not-too-masculine, wish I'd come across your review sooner. A new subbie, great to come across another working corporate in Sydney doing YT too 😊✨

[@whatveewore]

thanks so much Aik! this is so lovely of you to say!

[@Girlsroxy]

Loved the video! Was window shopping for a tote for uni to go with my existing backpack and I think the wonder tote would be a great complement to it. Really appreciate the fact that you did the laptop pocket fit test with multiple sized devices - knowing the smaller wonder tote could fit up to a 15" laptop (compared to 14" as advertised) really helped me in figuring out which size would suit my devices and use cases, particularly because I carry my laptop in a sleeve, which means I need a bit of extra room in the pocket A similar addition to this that I think could be good for future reviews is a water bottle test - the designated pockets in the wonder tote seem better for shorter and fatter bottles rather than tall ones. I think it would be good to know the rough height of a water bottle that would fit in the pocket and still allow the bag to zip. Can you give any insight into this on the wonder tote? And of course I've just missed out on the big xmas sale season... not in a rush but seeing as this bag is relatively new (?) I'm hoping it does get discounted during their next sale

[@anthonymiller8979]

Love the Bellroy line. I have 4 different sized sling, 2 backpacks and 1 duffel bag. Covers every need and occasion.

[@whatveewore]

Totally agree! What an awesome collection you've got

[@NatTanYZ]

amazing! totally sold on the Tokyo wonder tote. didn't realise the model on the website was you! :)

[@whatveewore]

haha yes - it was SO fun shooting with them! and the bag is so great too. meanwhile, they've just kicked off their Black Friday sale - perrrrfect time to buy!

[@elaineso810]

What’s the color name for those 2002r?

[@katewassmann4036]

So nice to see a woman's review!

[@whatveewore]

Oh thank you!

[@darrencoates]

Great video ... thank you for making it. After watching I think I'm going to get the smallest Transit Backpack ... which colour do you recommned, the Black or the Navy Blue / Nightsky colorway?

[@whatveewore]

Thanks for watching! Re colour - you can’t go wrong with either, but I do like it in navy!

[@jhykr]

Thank you for the great review! I'm interested in some of Bellroy's bags and your video is really helpful. 9:52 I'm considering getting the Via Workpack, but my concern is the position of the mesh pocket zipper. Do you think there is possibility of the zipper scratching 16 inch MacBook Pro while carrying it in the laptop compartment?

[@whatveewore]

I don't think the zipper will be an issue - I've carried my 16" Macbook in my Via Workpack with no problems :)

[@vicky_w]

I am 5'1. Love your video!

[@whatveewore]

Wonderful!

[@asoonami]

Thanks for representing the petite community because we use bags as well and it is not easy to find reviews on how the bag looks like on a shorty (I’m 5’0” and seemed to be shrinking now that I gave up heels) When I travel I need to carry a 15” PC and a 13” MacBook Pro. Which of these backpack works best for two laptops? Thanks again for the superb video!

[@whatveewore]

You are so welcome! I think the Venture Ready Backpack, the Transit Workpack or the Tokyo Totepack would work for you if you're carrying those devices at the same time. If you're carrying a few other bits and pieces in addition, the first two styles I mentioned have more capacity for you to work with.

[@fuadfood9910]

For the Tokyo totte bag. The 1st one you reviewed what about the space in the main compartment of 14L size. Can v fit in T shirt or something of that sort.

[@whatveewore]

you can definitely fit a t-shirt inside the bag - probably several!

[@annydu5361]

Thanks for sharing, im suprised how much some these bags weigh! Must get quite heavy once you pack a laptop in there?! 😮

[@whatveewore]

On the contrary :) some of the larger bags have more features and weigh more as a result, but it doesn’t reflect when worn. I was a bit surprised too as I’ve found those to be so comfortable with all my things packed in them 😅

[@Mikivli]

Will the Tokyo crossbody fit an iPad mini and a camera?

[@whatveewore]

probably not an ipad mini - and it all depends on the size of your camera?

[@justinemarieabarro9406]

Hi! I'm looking to purchase the Bellroy Wonder Tote 15L, but I'm worried my 15" Dell laptop might not fit. The size of my laptop is 15" (L) x 10.2" (H). Hope you can help with this

[@whatveewore]

the 15L wonder tote fits my 16" macbook so it should fit the 15" dell.

[@manerdie]

Can you make a long term review of the bellroy tokyo totepack pls😊

[@whatveewore]

absolutely! it's on my list :)

[@realmerican6527]

Love to hear what another working mom of 2 thinks of Bellroy!

[@whatveewore]

Yay! Thanks so much for watching!

[@callmecheese4696]

I’m a man standing at 1.78m. I can’t decide Tokyo totepack or via workpack. Do you think the workpack will be too small for a man to carry as a backpack?

[@whatveewore]

not necessarily, it really comes down to personal preference. if i had to choose between the two, it would be the tokyo totepack

[@sophy.r]

Terrible customer support.

[@petepure3387]

Excellent video young Lady. All the best & keep these videos coming. Hi from Adelaide, South Australia

[@whatveewore]

thanks for watching!
