I need to buy a backpack, any suggestions /fa/?

[Anonymous No.13628786]

depends on what you're gonna wear it with. if pic is related, i think kankens look good, but are too expensive and small for practical

[Anonymous No.13628993]

different style, same price range, i got this a few days ago, it's pretty big, can fit a 15" notebook, three 1.5 litre water battles and a thick hoodie

[Anonymous No.13629004]

Bought this today. Have yet to find out just how durable it is but I like it’s looks.

[Anonymous No.13629007]

If you are going for kanken, just get a herschel backpack to fit in with everyone

I have the Kanken 17" laptop backpack in lake ridge color or whatever. Sweet backpack but not as practical as you think it'd be. It has space for all my shit, is waterproof, but there's very poor compartmentalization. I get compliments on it and I enjoy the no frills aesthetic. It's not exceedingly padded (one of the reasons why I purchased it) so consider that if you like having a lot of support on your shoulders.

you are welcome, ive had mine for a couple years and its perfect, it does have very limited space but it makes you grab the essentials

[Anonymous No.13631636]

bought this off kommandostore
was pretty cheap
still on its way
was just curious about what you guys think about how it looks

[Anonymous No.13631655]

>>13631636

It's bretty good. The actual colour is unfortunately closer to green, and mine has no reinforcement at the bottom. It could use some bck stabilizer, because it's basically a bag with straps (it is meant to be combined with Bundeswehr sleeping pad, which folds into rectangular plain and gets inserted into inner sleeve). It also suffers from clunky and awkwards straps, making it difficult for instant adjustment. It's pretty big for a casual pack, so it's perfect for carry-a-ton-of-stuff-with-you people like me. I use it primarly as a bike purse, cause it endures a lot of field abuse (it has a waterproof coating inside)

All in all, it's a solid pack, which gives you a nice milspo vibe without making you seem like complete autist. If it looked exactly like in the picture it would have been perfect.

[Anonymous No.13631658]

>>13630267
What does that absurd branding all over the bag have to do with taste

Congratulations you are the 999,999,999,999 millionth person to buy a kanken bag, well done for not being a mindless, tasteless sheep. Now everyone will know you as, the guy with the kanken -it’s the easiest way to tell you apart from all the other kanken wearers.

so I think the ones on Kommandostore are BW or austrian surplus but it's literally just a licensed copy of a US ALICE pack, which you can get for 15 dollars
Back in the 90s surplus boom, lots of college kids had them. They're pretty good

I'd go filson, I have one of their larger messenger bags with a zip pocket front, big enough to carry a laptop and the few books I need at uni.

But I also think their backpacks look pretty good for being backpacks.

[Anonymous No.13637591]

>>13637521
Well, whether you'll get away with "standing out a little" depends on how popular you are rather than the aesthetic qualities of your backpack. Such is high school - which is what I assume you're in. If not: Jeez man, you're too old for this kind of insecurity. Just buy whatever the fuck you like.

If you want organization, I'd go with the Stadt. Super Booty doesn't have much in the way of internal organization, so that might be a key factor in your decision. I'd probably say go with the Stadt, but if you need those extra 7 liters and are planning on just dumping larger items in there, the Super Booty would be fine, and it does have the one front pocket if you don't have too many smaller things.
Just figure out what you're planning on carrying most days and judge it based on that, honestly. Either one is a good choice.

got this one, just different colour. Never wore it and probably never will.
Too much dangling shit on it, and it feels weirdly small (even tho I have the bigger one), with one strap it just looks like a gay purse on your back. I couldn't match it with anything. Do not buy
