Depends. Autistic overloaded backpacks with stickers make you look stupid. Fancy colorful hipster backpacks with a macbook inside make you look stupid. A good brand (HP, Targus) backpack thats not exploding with shit is generally fine. Most programmers at my company wear backpacks.

TL;DR something like pic related is fine if not overloaded
>>
>>60305029
Only if you walk weird with it on. When you wear yours, try not to focus too much on how you're walking - make sure you're walking naturally and you should be fine, but don't think about it too much, you'll just make it weird, just be you and walk like it's supposed to be there and it will look natural being there. If you're not weird about it and you don't put too much thought into it, other people won't notice, but if you think about it too much, you're going to make it stand out, and other people will look at it, and if you're walking awkwardly with it, it's going to look awkward and weird, so don't make it weird and just be cool, not awkward. It's not your fault, just don't think about it too much and don't fidget with it on and nobody will think about it enough to notice.

Probably, I wear a backpack and people look at me like I'm a freak.

>>60305074
Try reading this but actually have short legs and longer torso and have to walk all over uni every day.
>>
it looks comical compared to an over the shoulder laptop bag
>>
>>60305029
Who gives a shit, it's much more comfy than carrying a briefcase or a bag with a single shoulder strap. If I had to carry a bunch of crap with me to work every day then I'd definitely use a backpack.
>>
>>60305029
If you get a nice one like pic related, then it's acceptable. Anything else is weird tbqh
>>
this reminds me of the rollerbag thing that is popular around many campuses. you will look weird, but have an excuse.
>>
>>60305107
But man, you can't get all hung up on how long your legs are, maybe they're too long, maybe you're a little stubby and you'd like to have longer like, dancers legs, but you can't focus on that, you'll think too much about it, more so if you have a little pudge around the stomach area. Don't think about that though, everybody's got it, we're not photoshopped, there's a little break in everybodys' waistline, but you can't focus on that too much, you'll end up pulling on your shirt and it's going to draw attention and be awkward, and you'll think about it too much, and you'll try to avoid doing it and pull at the straps for your backpack, but you shouldn't fidget like that, people will notice and it will be weird, and they'll see the backpack, because it's a little awkward, so don't do that. Just don't think about your legs, or shirt, or backpack and just walk. One foot in front of the other, it's how everybody walks, just don't focus on that too much, you'll be looking right at the ground, that's awkward, just have a little confidence and don't think about it. You don't need swag or whatever, you can't fool people like that, but just don't be weird about it, and don't think about it, just be walking. It's normal, just be cool about it.

If you are a college student, it is very reasonable to wear a backpack. We have lots of textbooks and a lot of bullshit.

If you are a mountain climber or a hiker, that would also be reasonable.

If you have a job in the office, on the otherhand, it may not fit.

Do you wear a suit and tie to the office? Then no a back pack is not appropriate. Otherwise a backpack is totally acceptable. I'd argue it's only not acceptable when wearing a suit jacket.

Op, if you treat the backpack as an accessory then you'll be fine. Get an assortment of different types of backpack, so for example if youre going somewhere smart, wear something like >>60309439 .
I think its mainly about posture and making sure everything works together. Its kind of like asking if its weird to wear hiking boots. If you wear a pair of yellow hiking boots into the office people will look at you weird. Different bags for different occasions.

Definitely possible for the 24Litre version but mines 12Litre, I haven't had any cutting in issues, but I would probably want some better padding if I was fully loading the larger version.. You really can stuff a lot in this so the 24Litre must get absolutely loaded.

It's definitely got a lot of form over function, but its designed just to smash shit in the top and go ride your bike, theres seperate internal pockets for a laptop and 2 little ones for like keys and shit but i hang my keys with a carabiner on the chest strap.

Oh my, you're probably the first person I've seen on /g/ ever who knows about GoRuck backpacks.

A backpack? No, that's retarded and so are you

A backpack is barely a fashion statement, it's a utility that you use to accomplish something. Is it dorky to have winter tires as an adult?

Not only that but if someone's using a backpack it's likely because they have hobbies and aspirations that require them to carry equipment all over the place. If that's supposed to be stupider than buying a $300 designer bag that accomplishes nothing except looking expensive then I don't give a fuck and I'd hope nobody else would

You guys know what the actual cool, mature alpha-male you're trying to embody would be doing? What they like and not explicitly going out of their way to change something as vapid as the backpack they were because someone might make fun of them with an internet joke

Depends. Are you camping, hiking, climbing or performing another outdoor activity that requires the use of one to carry supplies? If not then you look like an underclass bum. The adult world uses laptop bags, attache cases, and briefcases. However most adults under thirty do not know how to dress like adults, and think dressing like an urban hoodrat is acceptable work attire. A backpack is way more acceptable then that.

Do you just list your bag on eBay or your local Craiglist or sell it a pawnshop or something?

I bought a bunch of surplus myth anime bags and I've been using them for many years.

Right one i'm using one that says trigun even though I've never seen trigun, but the bag quality is nice, the red trim is so early 2000s otaku aesthetic.
They literally don't make quality anime backpacks like this anymore.

My thinkpad was made in 2004 and my WM is literally CDE so it's all relative.

I ended up buying the cheapest backpack from a camping store a block from my uni. 50% of my class uses the same backpack.

I wear a backpack all the time. I wear it to and from work as well ass to the gym after work.

It has my work computer and gym clothes in it as well as a small tool set and flashlight. No one cares.

How long does it take to open your bag?

Pic related, mine has clips instead of buckles and has a laptop slot in the back. Could have a better color but there are tons on their site.

Fuck no. Where else would you put your stuff? Go by the army rules: If it's stupid but works, it's not stupid.

Hell no, backpacks are masculine as HECK. I wear my tactical tailor urban everywhere I go.
