Tired of backpacks that almost get it right

Thule is often overseen despite having a fair price and tough materials (800D Nylon on my Subterra 2). You should check their website if there's something for you https://www.thule.com/en-us/laptop-bags-sleeves#filter=capacity-1167089

Had the previous-gen Subterra 21, sold it because the functional capacity felt way less than advertised.

Help me decide please!!

I second the CPL24. I just caught one off ebay in pretty much new condition for $150.00. I wasn't sure if I was going to pick up a 24L bag to replace the one Oakley Icon (31L) I carried for over 20 years, but at that price, I grabbed it. Truly a neutral style and crossover-friendly. (work meetings,

Tired of backpacks that almost get it right

Amen to this! I picked up a used Thule Subterra 34l about three years ago. Used it for two years as my daily and travel bag. It was very comfortable, compressed when not full, had a hidden bottle pocket, and two-way access. It was dope! I sold it this year to fund another purchase and it still looke

Thule Aion 28L 11-day euro onebag testing for future trips

Looks great! Thule is underrated. I had a Subterra for a while. It was very comfortable, had a roll top and side access and looked like new after years of use.

Every Day Use Comfortable Laptop Backpack

Thule has some great options in there!The Subterra lineup is also nice for a more "profressional look", but all the products I used from them were always great.I use a Subterra Hybrid for EDC/1-2 day travel (not the comfiest backpack, but it still works).I have a travel Bag/Backpack from the Crossov

Go-To FlightBag

It's probably from the Thule Subterra collection, but might be one of the older models, 34 or 40L.I have a 40L version that can convert between duffel and a backpack. It's also my go-to for carry-on.
