Rofmia Backpack V2 incoming!

I love the Daypack so much I wanted something I could single-day with.

[mclaincausey]

Experimenting with single bag travel for an overnight business trip. A tight squeeze but managed to get everything into the Backpack V2. The Daypack reigns supreme for EDC and travel with additional baggage but man this thing is super cool and wears extremely comfortably.

Carryology have a new GoRuck collaboration launching next week. The theme is Vikings.

Edit: The design article has been posted at Carryology.

Does anyone have Bleu de Chauffe's "Report Business Bag" or anything similar and can share their experiences?

Travelling light to Gosport with room for some extra goodies on the way back.

Just replaced my old Goruck GR-1 after 8 years of daily use, and even then it’s still usable. I passed it on to my son and it will probably still be in use long after I am, amazing quality back packs.

[chrisjohnnick]

I think a GR1 21L is next on my list of things to get. My only real hesitation is my current bag has side pockets, and I've gotten so used to sliding a phone in one and a pen/knife/lip balm in the other!

[Megatron1505]

I love mine for travel, the durability and full clam shell opening is great.

Putting some Mustang Paste on this beauty from Emil Erwin of Nashville. Definitely an heirloom level piece.

[chrisjohnnick]

@Anesthetist nice! Is that the one that was just on Poshmark recently? Emil lives next to one of my buds houses, I see him around often. Still waiting on him to make a canvas/leather backpack.

[Anesthetist]

@chrisjohnnick this one I have had for years. Have you looked at the bags Loyal Stricklin has?

[Graeme]

@Anesthetist the Loyal Stricklin roll-top looks lovely. I'm very tempted...

[chrisjohnnick]

The Loyal Stricklin bags have too much leather for me. I want more canvas or cordura with leather accents. I’d scratch up that leather so quick.

[Graeme]

I wouldn't be too bothered about the leather getting scratched up. It'll probably look better with some abuse.

The problem for me would be that the bag is likely to be heavy. Australian airlines have a carry-on weight limit of 10 kg or 22 lbs, and a leather backpack could eat a third of that easily.

@chrisjohnnick uhhh it’s called patina

[Giles]

Needed a new one......

Inbound:

[RobeOfTheMagi]

Can you share your opinion on it after it has arrived G.?

[RobeOfTheMagi]

I'm still waiting for a 20l IH Duck daypack <3.

[Giles]

@RobeOfTheMagi 100%. I have a 25litre Patagonia Blackhole which this will replace. The zippers have seized a little (sea water again), and the main opening is a complete bitch to access quickly (the zippers just don't work properly at the angle you naturally pull them from). Also, I really wanted side access to the PC compartment because opening the whole bloody bag to access the Mac/iPad when going through airport security is a pain, only compounded by the above zipper niggles.
