Can we have a bag thread?
My age old Puma messenger bag is finally about to break so it's time to replace it with something /fa/. What I've learned from lurking here is that black, minimalist backpacks are in right now. Looking at pic related, planning on removing the logo.

What bag are you using, /fa/?
Here's one from Religion. Pretty cool.
Very minimalist but doesn't seem very spacey.
You can fit a lot of beer in this one. From Nike, and it's on sale.
From Element.
Eastpak always the GOAT imo
>>10936461
Could you post some /fa/ eastpaks?
?
>>10936470
looks pretty nice desu. w2c?
>>10936174
I use some Eastpak rip-off that was 10 euros at local sports store
Bought it cause I needed a backpack for school and it was the only one I found that wasn't ugly as fuck
Will probably just get Eastpak once this breaks.
Just bought this.
These are supposed to be very sturdy right? Seems pretty good so far, big as fuck I can fit anything in it, good for uni, good for a 1-2 day trip too.
>>10936513
It's a Sandqvist Roald, kinda expensive but I like them
>>10936566
thanks man, ill look into it
>>10936566
How's this Puma backpack? With the logo removed of course.
>>10936601

Sorry didn't mean to quote
Anyone using the Eastpak provider, and had experience with their 30 year guarantee?
I was thinking of one in "double denim" but its a much darker shade (in pic) on Amazon than on Eastpak's site (where it's pale blue) so might be better to go for just black.
Also what does "straps with SGS" mean?
>>10936243
Link?
Fuck 'minimalist,' functional is in.
>post backpacks that perform their function well
>>10936461
theres so many which one do i get? just want a simple one to put laptop & notes in. i like small dark box look
>>10938377
>>10938392
which one?
>>10938487
None of the ones in your pic, go with a backpack that just werksâ„¢ and will last you a lifetime
>see my pic
>>10938487
Just pick one which works with your everyday color scheme. The one on the far left is the most neutral, and so will fit perfectly with most every outfit. Middle will go with any lunar core outfit. Right will fit with 90's middle school fashion. Don't buy it.
Is this /fa/?
>>10938507
Clashing patterns and fabrics/leather. 5/10, eh. Could be better, could be worse. So, maybe? I'd have to see it with a good outfit to make me like it.
Has anyone had experience with Coto & Ciel bags? Im looking into buying one but am not sure of the quality.
I want to make sure $350 for a backpack is worth it.

>>10938392
W2c?
>>10938533
$395: http://www.goruck.com/gr2-black-/p/GEAR-000509
AFAIK, they don't sell in physical stores, only online. Might be wrong about that.
I want to pull the trigger. Its made of a coated polyester, so it's rainproof.
It's essentially a laptop bag and a duffelbag in one.

I bet you can find it elsewhere, too, if you hate ASOS.
>>10936216
I love this one. w2c one that ships globally?
W2C big, sturdy and minimalistic non leather backpack?
>>10938377
This is the 36l model right?

I'd say so, but I don't really like the faux leather.
Meh

How much did I fuck up?
Anyone know any duffel bags similar to pic related? Going for that Nihei aesthetic.
>>10938573
worth every penny, I love mine to death
I live in Vancouver so it helps a ton with keeping my stuff dry; never use the hood tho, I think it's a bit too much
>>10940953
I have heard people say that the Klettersack is too big
I own three Rover packs and love them so much
You be the judge, anon
Anyone know what kind of model this is? Wanting to get a Jansports bag but don't like the boxy look
>>10942780
dude it's the basic jansport
>>10936174
recently copped this
>>10943397
return it
>>10943397
You should get your money back
My backpack. Only complaint is it is a little small.
>>10943709
>>10943706
More like useless. Can you even put anything into it?
>>10943715
Yea it's designed to expand. I can get my laptop like 6 notebooks into it.
>>10940953
I have pic related, its the 22L version and I don't feel thats its too big. However the whole drawstring close at the top makes it cumbersome to bring my laptop and notebooks in and out of. I would buy a diffrent topo bag if I could go back in time.
>>10943724
fuck. forgot pic
>>10941874
Did you order yours directly from the website?
>>10943689
>>10943557
meh i dig it.
>>10938573
do it man
i have an old as fuck tech isar and just copped this one since it's starting to show some serious age
cote&ciel is legit
Does anyone know if I could fit one of these into the waterbottle pocket of that meme kanken backpack? (inb4 do not cop)
>>10936790
They'll last 10 years if you use them daily carrying heavy stuff like books or beer. Wouldn't really think too much about the guarantee.
>>10936174
haters gonna haterate
>>10943755
yup I did
left or right senpai?
I'll be taking off the diamond on the Eastpak/the Jansport patch on the Jansport and replacing it with a patch.
>>10944604
Just saw a Kanken at a store 10 mins ago. I'd say it definitely does not fit.
>>10946590
left=eastpak for me
>>10936470
best one in this thread so far. would buy, if it wasn't so expensive
>>10946590
left desu senpai
Thoughts?
solid messenger bag used when biking?
a 3rd arm for poorfag college students?
>>10949501
mission workshop
if u were looking for black/minimal bags or rucksacks or whatever Côte et Ciel has a bunch of cool options think one already got posted. bit pricey but cool and definitely unique
>>10949639
This desu
I want this expensive plain blackpack but also I want that other expensive plain backpack what do
>only laptop bag near me that fits the laptop comfortably
>>10949962
>That tacky logo
>>10949501
>>10949639
Same here, but I don't need something so huge. Just for commutes and city travel. Been looking at the MEC Division but I don't know if it will fit my laptop.

>>10950379
is it possible to remove the herschel patch on this?
>>10949639
eh, they're just okay. something about the aesthetic of them kind of turns me off. but i know they make solid stuff.
any other brands?
>>10950474
Stitched on, so yeah looks like it and shouldn't be obvious it's removed really
Here's pics in the pocket and with it folded a bit
>>10948235
I like this very much.
>>10940065

>>10950645

Currently cycling between these two
>>10936470
Considered getting that one
>>10944647
hnng i like that colour but they didnt sell it at urban outfitters so i got this one instead
now im the only guy in uni with a kanken lel, though they are quite common amongst girls
>>10938497
Where can i get this one? What is it called?
>>10938573
called?
>>10940644
>"Ay senpai, you wanna buy some weed?"
OK /fa/ I really need your advice on choosing a backpack.
(Eastern European poorfag student, so price ceiling's around 60-70 euro)
I used to go with an H&M pack I copped for 20 something euro, but
A)Quality is shit, it's been to my local repairs twice already in about half a year, once with a shoulder strap tear and another one - laptop sleeve.
B) It does not have any organizing qualities, and I recently found out I need those seriously. Lotta stuff I usually carry around, so I do need a lot of pockets.
That said, I don't want my new pack to be too big. My H&M is 12 1/4 x 17 1/4", that sizing fits me well. I wouldn't mind it being a little wider, but definitely not taller.
By now I have only checked out two Jansports - Right Pack, but practically no organization puts me off, and Big Student - but I don't know how good would a 17" sleeve be for my 15" laptop. Plus Jansport has ceased shipping to EU, I could get a guy I know proxy one for me from the US, but that is better avoided.
Stuff I carry around on a daily basis: 15" laptop and power adapter, wireless mouse, 5"x3" power bank, a textbook with a couple notebooks, a 6" e-reader, some pens/pencils, a lunchbox, a 0.5 water bottle, a leatherman.
I'd like my pack dark grey/black coloured, it's harder to ruin such color.
Any advice would be really appreciated anon.
Good bags for laptops?
>>10951773
Bumping this, I'm literally in the same fucking situation
>>10936243
Does this have a laptop pouch?
>>10951773
Oh and yeah. I'm also looking at:
>ACME Peak
Seems alright, but no warranty, company with barely any experience with bags, and far as I know shoulder pad gets in the way when you pull the straps into backpack configuration.
>Samsonite Urban Arc
Looks beautiful hands down, but pricey, either 14.5 or 16 inch, and people seem to have bad experience with samsonites.
>Samsonite Xenon 2
Not as pricey, still a lot of pockets, but again, there is quite a number of negative reviews on Amazon quoting horrible stitching quality.
Neither of those really did fit me, but maybe it'll help you >>10951785 anon.
>>10951867
I was thinking of Samsonite, but alot of them do look boxy whereas some look nice. Hearing about the bad experiences do put me off.
I was looking at these just now and was thinking of removing the patch/ replacing it. But Idk, I just need something good quality and well space that doesn't look like a jetpack.
http://www.eastpak.com/uk-en/backpacks-c120/pokker-linked-black-pEK13A71H+00+999.html
http://www.eastpak.com/uk-en/backpacks-c120/evanz-black2-pEK22107I+00+999.html
>>10951888
Evanz doesn't look good, Pokker might work, but if their laptop compartment size quoted is not just the sleeve but the whole thing - it's gonna be a tight fitter. My laptop is 383 x 259 if we talk millimeters.
Anyone have the Incase City or other Incase backpack? How's the quality?
>>10951759
Just copped this Rains backpack, the colour I wanted was the only one on sale.
I'm happy with the purchase. It's pretty spacious, the material gives it a rigid strucutre and it has a surprisingly practical amount of pockets and slots to store notes and pens and whatnot. It's a pretty eye-catching piece in general, almost everyone I've spoken to since getting it has commented on it.
Another nice feature is the fact that the straps adjest with buckles rather than pull tabs, meaning they don't slip and become looser.
>>10951996
>adjest
*adjust
>>10951924
Yeah, I just need something sleek really, and mine is 25 x 384 x 265 mm (H x W x D) got this from the site. I don't like the red insides of the pokker though, I'll have to see then.
>>10951959
I like their look but the UK site for them is confusing af, also these people gotta be short as hell I'm hoping it'd look better on taller people.
>>10952033
Also I've been looking at Victorinox, the Altmont 3 Deluxe Laptop Backpack is oh-my-god-so-cool good but WAY out of my league, same with Werks Professional Entrepereur, but I do like Altmont 3.0 Standard. Looks like something that can accomodate what I usually carry.
>>10952053
Are the reviews on the Almont good? I feel like the fabric looks too thin imo, Idk. Just seeing the Werks and it looks sleek but it's quite expensive for my budget.
Standard definetly looks good and patchable at a low price but size seems like it won't fit much i guess
>>10936174
Where is the pure white version of this bag? help senpais
>>10951192
Because I want to keep it on?
>>10940953
Congrats on the life jacket!
Ordered me one of these.
Probably gonna buy one of these
Thoughts?
>>10949501
cocotte equipement bags
looking for a nice duffel bag to wear to uni, wanna start off fresh.
>>10952087
Much as I know yes. True that Standard doesn't have as much organizing value as most of 'noxes do, but then again, seeing
>Stuff I carry around on a daily basis: 15" laptop and power adapter, wireless mouse, 5"x3" power bank, a textbook with a couple notebooks, a 6" e-reader, some pens/pencils, a lunchbox, a 0.5 water bottle, a leatherman
it'll probably be able to fit it all especially if I make use of external stach pockets for my powerbank/leatherman.
>>10953024
This is like the nicest backpack around, but it's fucking expensive
>>10953069
norse projects makes a similar one
>>10953071
yeah I already had that norse projects backpack. It was really nice but someone stole it at a party :(
I'm considering getting this c6 backpack
>>10953027
w2c?
>>10943397
awful
>>10953147
new era japan only
you can order most of their online stuff from capcollector using their form for ppl outside of nippon
or use proxy or rakuten
>>10953156
damn, seems to be sold out everywhere, thanks tho senpai
how's this?
Eastpak Floid Backpack
Repost from another thread. White Mountaineering backpack for 100€.
Just copped this. I could do without the Burton logo since I don't snowboard (I do ski though), but otherwise it seems nice.
w2c a good backpack for college
>>10938514
>choosing your backpack based on the outfit you're wearing that day
are you fucking kidding me?
>>10954318
Not same anon, but I'm guessing he means, it wouldn't suit every outfit
w2c a decent looking laptop bag/briefcase for an office job I've been hired for. Since my last gig involved a lot of outdoor work, rain or shine, I've already spent a bit updating the rest of my wardrobe, but all I've got for luggage right now are backpacks that don't look particularly professional.
I was thinking something like a grey canvas.
sturdiest bag I've ever had. it's waterproof, and has so, so much space
>>10954404
I recommend you avoid messenger bags and stick with a high-end tote or a shoulder bag
>>10954427
are the shoulder straps comfortable? I've adamantly avoided Chrome ever since they got bought out
Which one shall I cop? Porter-Yoshida.
>>10954431
yeah the shoulder straps are comfy af but the chest strap is annoying to hook on.
who did they sell out to? i haven't been paying attention
>>10954456
I love the porter-yoshida bags but they're too expensive for me at this point in time.
I reckon second one would carry more but the 1st one is in better lighting so looks more pleasing. Depends on whether you want the side parts I guess. Really like the design of 1stbut seems more hiking/cycling based whereas the second looks more of a general backpack for school/work/day
>>10951996
Live the way this looks
>>10953152
meh, suits me.
>>10954456
Right
Got this to replace a very old atticus backpack, first time considering something /fa. Hybrid military duffel and fold over. heaps of space, straps switch from backpack, across chest, messenger, or whatever you feel. There's also a sneaky little zip pocket for keys/leatherman etc you can get to comfortably while still on your back.
>>10951767
Filename, faggot.

???
use how to order english top right
>>10956961
oh, damn. thanks a bunch. was considering getting their carrier pack instead as the midpack seems a bit small, so now i'm not sure
Cop? It's leather and almost 2 hunna
this goes for less than 100 and its built like a tank
>>10957367
seems cool, cop
>>10951746
>>10944647
Honestly I'm terribly disappointed with my kanken. It's small and those thin fucking straps cut into my shoulders when I carry heavy books. The zippers are tight and annoying as fuck.
One positive thing is that the material keeps water out pretty well and dries out quickly.
As much as I hate my basic eastpak (not waterproof, it's falling apart after less than three years of daily use), I've come to prefer it to the kanken.
w2c decent bowlling bag
>>10936790
Don't fall for that
It's true yes but it excludes the zippers.
Guess what breaks the most on those eastpak bags?:^)
That being said they're still more reliable than Herschell's in my opinion
