What are some fa backpacks/messengers?
Depends what you really want to look like.
Kanken is kind of a good fit for most casual looks.
More low-key stuff try Knomo.
There are lots of other options though. Do you have any particular requirements.
>>12096788
wrong, the second you put on that kanken abomination you lose at fashion
>>12096759
What's this particular backpack?
Cote&Ciel is pretty dope, expensive af though
>>12096807
It's a cool backpack :^)
>>12096807
Looks military, but I'm not sure of the name.
>>12096805
Okay anon, but you can't really shoot down an opinion without giving another one.
What would you recommend instead?
>>12096813
>600€
>Made in China
Hell naw nigga
>>12096813
I saw one person wearing it in and it looks so goofy once you see it in person.
>>12096904

>>12096759
reverse image search yielded zero results - what bag is this?
>>12096970
Read the fucking thread
>>12096821
>Looks military
Ahahahaha
>>12096919
That Mission Workshop website is beyond gay. It's so fucking useless, what's the point of even having a website? They don't show you photos of the different bags in the different colors, so it's impossible to know what the bags look like. You can try looking for them on Google Images, but then the images are shitty and all look different. Straight-up retards; it figures it's a Bay Area company. I just spent three hundred dollars on another bag, because if they're such idiots they can't even communicate simple, basic information via their website, then surely they're too incompetent to make decent quality products.
>>12096904
I'd cop that so fucking hard if I lived in the US
>>12096894
same and it doesn't even look practical.
they made a smaller version and it looks a lot better
i would buy it if it had a water bottle pocket
>>12097026
one of my biggest pet peeves too
like if im going to buy something i want good pics of it from different angles with detailed shots and a video would be even better
that's why im on the fence about this dsptch backpack i want
dsptch is usually good with this kind of thing but since it's new to the line up theres not a lot of info on it soo idk what to do. might go to the store and look at it when im in the city.
>>12096904
this(its an everlane)
>>12097026
also what backpack did you decide to cop instead?
>>12096813
>>12096904
overplayed and dead
>>12097096
Thanks for your contribution
>>12097072
The DSPTCH Ruckpack looks great, but that's the only one I've seen. It's kind of vaguely reminiscent of an A.L.I.C.E. pack, except smaller.
>>12097085
I got a Goruck GR1.
>>12096805
Kankens are alright given you don't live in a city where you'd see tons of them.
>>12096813
Only works if you want to dress like an urban ninja photographer with a snail shell. It looks cool in that context but kind of out of place with anything else.
>>12097164

>>12097096
Really? I've never really seen anyone with everlane backpacks. Most of the people are sporting fjallraven kankens and herschel crap
I really want to cop. I think it looks fucking rad
>>12097514
Im autistic too
>>12097515
Not sure if I should get the black one instead. My fits are mostly black and white with earthy colours rarely

Porter black beauty series backpack
I actually have a special edition one with leather and balistic nylon details and it came with a porter mag lite hehe
Iirc this one retails for around 40,000 yen
I dunno man, always considered a very personal thing

>>12096861

I have the Nile Obsidian bag and I have to say I have never felt out of place with it. I get compliments often for it and the worse I got is, "it looks like a turtle shell". In general, it has plenty of pocket space and works well for most occasions. I also have never seen anyone else with a cote et ciel bag so it has a sense of uniqueness to it.
If you are the type to not want to draw attention to yourself in any way, then this is not a bag for you.
I wear it with pretty much anything though. Basic fuccboi outfits, gothier outfits, cuckcore, etc. I don't often dress like an urban ninja so it definitely isn't the only option.
>>12097873
where to cop ?
Nothing else compares
>>12097064
I tried the isarau, the isar and the nile. They are all super chunky and provide relatively small usable space. They are just huge style assesoires.
I mainly use a mission workshop rummy and can absolutely recommend it. For less stuff I have a Jack Wolfskin Stanmore (never though I would buy something from that company) which is also great.
>>12098337
I'm digging some of the other backpacks on this site. Thank you anon.

I fell for the kickstarter hype and bought one because I thought it looked cool and was a neat idea. It's actually pretty handy, plus I've gotten a lot of compliments with it
>>12099847
Anybody have any experience with Topo? Do they hold up well? Are they comfortable to wear? Are they dainty or robust? It's hard to tell from the pictures. I can't tell if it's chintzy fashion shit, or if it's practical, quality gear.

I Would never expect that to be consider /fa/. I'll only bought mine because it reminds me of my day pack I had in the Marines.

I am looking for a backpack with a higher capacity than a regular one. Something between a school bag and those real travel backpacks. Only have this old Herschel backpack laying around, which is 25 L. Looking for something > 25 L, but not massive either... just want a minimal look, nothing fancy or designer stuff... just practical and strong enough to carry groceries while riding my bike.
>>12102137
It's from Raf's colab with Eastpak from 2008, so good luck. I can't even find fakes of them.
>>12102149

>>12099841
>'mom says im not a spurg im special' edition
>>12100808
just cus you can't afford it doesn't make it tryhard
>>12102155
idk its not even close, but topo might have something with little bit similar aesthetic
>>12098730
Why is this piece of shit popular, massive logo in the middle, looks like a massive lunchbox
>>12102773
Idk either
>>12102773
>>12102918
cheap, durable, & comes in lots of colors
it's ubiquitous in western europe as a common student bag kinda like ll bean backpacks in the usa.
>>12099902
also requesting id on this
>>12102924
>ll bean
i think you mean famsport, jan
>>12102155
This profile pretty much proves that unstructured bags have the best silhouette. I wish I could find a high quality unstructured bag that had a laptop sleeve. Literally every single high quality student-type backpack I've seen is just a simple sack without any inner compartments.
Anyone know of a good unstructured bag like this one that has a laptop sleeve?
I have a herschel little america that I can wear anymore because of my back problems (the bag itself is too heavy). What are some /fa/ lightweight bags ?
>>12103238
guess it depends on where you live
in the northeast every little kid has an ll bean backpack
>>12103416
I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that your putting heavier items in the bag is more of a problem than the bag itself
>>12103416
>>12103440
Also how are you setting the straps? If the bag sits too low then it'll put too much strain on your back.
>>12103446
Shame they stopped making those too; but if I remember, they were going for around the same as the GR1 which probably made it less attractive for the mallninjas and members of the "Goruck lifestyle".
>>12103508
They're good for travelers and sensible people who despise fashion. I don't know. They're nice people, too; I've had good interactions with them.
>>12103440
The bag alone is heavy for me, I only put what I need inside
>>12103445
I know that anon, thank you for the tip anyway
Thoughts on wearing bags like the guy on the left?
anyone know of any good techwear or slighty milsurp looking shoulder or waist bags? Going to Japan for a class trip during spring break and need something light to carry my X-T1, passport and some other small shit in.
>>12103795
i hope theres a resurgence
that lemaire fit is GOAT
Was a godsend for uni and made laptop carrying so nice.
Don't use it as much anymore but it was still worth every cent.
I'm just curious, does anyone know how well the Topo Klettersacks hold up over time? Are they sturdy, or do they fall apart?
>>12102155
this looks dope
>>12101827
I mean I wouldn't use mine for any sort of hardcore hiking our utility, but it's been about a year, almost everyday for school, some camping and hiking, travel, etc. Except for dirt and patina on the leather it looks basically new. The one issue I've had is some loose ends for threads which hadn't been clipped down enough and the two bits that hold the straps to the body have pulled slightly away from the bag at their tops. You have to be okay with just throwing stuff into it or coughing up for some organizers, but that's cool by me. Love mine (pic related when I first got it)

I only carry my mac and some notebooks + pens so I wanna reduce the empty space in my bags. I have a Fjall Kanken currently so something smaller that still allows me to fit a laptop inside
>>12107256
When I was looking for a new bag, the Thule Covert caught my eye. Shame my friend's Best buy Discount didn't cover it, and the similar Lowepro Streetline BP 250 was out of stock too.

My grail. I have yet to see a single one for sale, used or otherwise.
why does every bag have pic related, is there a use for it or just for show.
>>12107471
In a practical sense they're meant to hold things like boots or smaller bags, but as of recent designers have just been coating their bags in them because more=better.
Just bought this on amazon because it was cheap, rate me

amazonbasics classic backpack. cheap af and comes in a few colors
>>12107471
You can put carry straps through them to mount gear such as jackets, poles, blankets, etc. being the most common examples.
>>12106619
I honestly wish I'd gotten a more boring color, like the navy ones with horween bottom. The orange looks great with a forest green imo or if you're wearing other outdoorsy type gear like an anorak of fleece, but I find that it's not necessarily conducive the the darker color palate I tend to aim for. Of course, it's still a beautiful color as far as I'm concerned.
>>12107965
An ALICE pack has shorter straps and some other minor things, but yeah the overall shape is there.
I've considered either dying an original USGI one black, or just buying a new production one for that exact reason
Thinking of getting one for general citywear and because I like wearing backpacks but it has to go with black quilted jacket, black/blue jeans and brown/black boots or sneaks. Any thoughts? I'm thinking khaki/camo to stand out?
>>12102924

Do you use the briefcase for formal occasions too? I feel like it's a bit too rural for the office.
>>12112945
It's definitely not black tie formal, but I haven't ever needed to bring a bag to an event like that. Really depends on where you are and where you're working. I live in Seattle and I work at a not-so-formal tech company so it fits right in. Comes in other colors too like black and navy.
The briefcase isn't as thick as in the picture, that's another model that's discontinued.
>>12109425
If I didn't already have a backpack I love to death, I would snap up one of these before they're gone forever. I checked the three sixteen website, and this pack definitely looks cool as shit. I particularly dig the seatbelt straps. I'd never want a waxed coat, but a waxed backpack is actually a killer idea for any number of reasons.
