I am becoming a little obsessed with this design. I can’t seem to find any actual web pages or links to buy this from, credit, or even like a blog post just talking about it.

Both these photos were taken off of Pinterest from “Drivesdesign” and “visuaaal interest” respectively. Neither link up to a website or have any correct information.

After reverse image searching, looking through this whole Reddit for similar images, and trying to just google it I can’t seem to figure out where this comes from or who made it.

There is an inscription on the second picture that from what I can make out is “article 1/500” and then what appears to be a serial number. If anyone has any idea or can help me find it I would be extremely grateful.

I recently broke my main Jungle Green Pro2 and had to swap parts with my older grey Pro2 and it ended up looking so amazing. This has been a mixture of FOUR different 8BitDo controllers, plus a stick from Leadjoy (modded to fit), a 3Dprinted+painted C Stick, and lots of membrane swapping (they wear out so easily!!). I realized it’s very Majora’s Mask coded, so I stuck the mask pin in the clear battery compartment and it sits in there perfectly without moving around! 😄(I’ve been using the controller wired lately so no battery pack needed).

Preordered this not too long ago and it finally arrived. I never used an easysmx controller before but it seems promising. Some might find it ugly or bizzare looking but I like that easysmx did something different from the norm.

Hello everyone. I am new on this subreddit, but have been looking around in the forums for a while for controller suggestions. Recently I have sold my previous PS5 and its controllers, and I am looking for a good quality controller for a decent price on my local shops. I have gathered bunch of offers I have found, but I am unsure which one to pick. I have been comparing them using versus and gamepadia websites and have general understanding on what are the features of these controllers. However, I am still unsure which one to pick. So, I have decided to ask you guys. I will provide pictures and controller models and their prices that sellers offer. If you have further questions please feel free to ask. I don’t post on reddit much. Sorry if my post is shoddy job.

1. My budget is around 30$ to 50$
   
2. I am from Azerbaijan and I can only get controllers from local sellers. International shops cost way too much of shipping
   
3. I will mainly use my controller for PC
   
4. I am looking for a good …

I have to admit that I’m somewhat obsessed with work rucksacks, though it borders on addiction.
I have far too many depending on the day and what I need to take to the office.
If I’m only carrying a few things and don’t need to bring my lunch box, my favorite is the 17-liter Topo Designs Mountain Crossbody, after much searching.
I choose a crossbody backpack because I like to have certain items on hand at all times, such as my wallet, travel card, sunglasses, and camera.
That’s why I’m quite fussy when I carry a backpack. It needs to fit everything I carry, be comfortable, allow ventilation against my back, provide direct access to certain pockets, have plenty of internal organization, and not be too stiff.
Over the last few years, I’ve regularly used the following:
- Fjällräven Räven 28
- Topo Designs Commuter Backpack (25L)
- Peak Design Everyday Backpack 30L
Patagonia Refugio 30L

I love them all, but I always find faults with each one.

Over the last few weeks, I’ve read this …

Haven’t heard of them before and didn’t see anything pop up on a search. Anyone familiar with the brand?

I inhereted the garment bag and a second bag (same as the one on the left) about 15 years ago and have been looking for more ever since.

I always figured there was a fourth bag in this set and finally found the middle bag on ebay last week! I’ve had searches saved for years and this is the first time I’ve seen this bag pop up.

Went to HCM on holiday recently and planned a straight visit to the CTactical store from the airport since it was only 12 minutes away via taxi.

This place was awesome; staff were very helpful and knowledgeable. I ended up buying a CT21+ in 420D Robic, a CT3 NEO to match along with it and a bunch of other pouches / wallets and pencil cases. They also had some group buy items on sale, but the stock is limited.

If you do plan to visit Vietnam and HCM city, I highly recommend planning a visit here. The prices are quite a bit cheaper than they are online.

The CT21+ is definitely the best large EDC bag I’ve used imo. The front admin panel is glorious. It definitely reminds me of the TP3 admin panel. The CT3 NEO is great too; It works well as a camera bag (fits my X100VI perfectly).

I’m definitely coming back soon to buy more stuff, maybe the CT21 Lite as well.

Its been a few months since I ordered and received this CT15 messenger bag on the CTactical Facebook page. For this bag I went with a blue Ultra 200, their rainbow stitching, lime ultragrid interior, and side pockets in dark chili ultrastretch. I think I inadvertently created a rainbow brite colorway, but I’m a 90s kid and enjoy loud colors. The CT Messenger is light but well-structured and very compact, sized to fit a 14” laptop max. Its got an easy access zip on the flap so there is no need to undo the clasps to access stuff inside (but you will need to open the flap to use the computer sleeve). It wears really well on body and the strap has a good, easy to place pad and is easy to adjust.

I started a new job earlier this year and they issued me a 14” laptop, much smaller than my old 15.6” Lenovo. So in typical manybagger fashion I’ve been picking up a whole slew of smaller 14” briefcases/big slings. Typically, I just buy used bags or stuff …

Over 15 years ago, I got rid of everything I owned that wouldn’t fit into a 35L backpack and my old issued 80L seabag. It was an outstanding way to live—it presented minor challenges, but it freed up funds, since I didn’t have room for more stuff. I was single, traveling for work as a helicopter pilot, and it was great. I guess I was now a “minimalist.” To be fair, I didn’t come up with the idea myself: it came from an article by Andrew Hyde, a traveling tech consultant who at the time claimed to own only 15 things. In that traveling-pilot life, it was genuinely nice to know I had all of my belongings with me. I was free. Home truly was where I made it.

I still believe in the concept, but now—married, with a house, and with hobbies that require some tools and gear—I have more stuff. I don’t have anything in storage or boxed up in a basement; if I own it, I use it. In fact, I can fit everything I own into my car (minus the furniture, obviously). And …

I’m packing for 10 days in Portugal with an Osprey 26+6, and I’ve managed to get everything down to about 18L. Part of that involved cutting pajamas. Travel tee plus running shorts, done. Two items, two jobs each. Very efficient. Except this “efficient” system means checking which shirt is clean enough to sleep in, timing sink laundry so it dries before bed, and making sure I don’t wear tomorrow’s only clean shorts while I’m sleeping. I save a little space and somehow create a nightly admin task.
I tested the setup at home for three nights and was irritated by night two. Then I looked at the things that have made previous trips easy: broken-in tevas, one uniqlo button-down that works with everything, tiny toiletries, and the old ekouaer set I already sleep in at home. I know how each one fits, washes and feels after a long day, so they require very little thought. The pajamas are coming. I’ll find the space. I’m tired of turning bedtime into a laundry schedule.

I recently did a 3-day trip from Bergen to Oslo, Norway. I’ve travelled minimally for a while, but this time, I wanted to see how light I could travel and still feel comfortable. Not only did I have a great trip, I also learned something that will impact all my future trips!

Here is everything I packed and wore:

- iPhone 15 Pro

- AirPods Pro

- USB-C charger and cable

- Pencil case with toiletries

- Tote bag

- Umbrella

- Wallet

- 2 boxer briefs (1 worn + 1 packed)

- Merino socks

- Merino sweater

- Poly/cotton button-down shirt

- Chino pants

- Denim jacket

- Leather sneakers

I could have fit everything in the pockets of my jacket. But since I prefer having empty pockets, I put the items I did not wear in a 3L sling.

The biggest lesson learned is just how little clothing I can get by with. I had an extra set of underwear, and sink washed the clothing that smelled/felt dirty at the hotel each night. I did not miss having more clothing.

This lesson will also change …

I travel between New York and Sweden frequently, staying in my apartments there. I could do laundry regularly, so I have a small clothing list instead of a full wardrobe. These are all of my clothes I have had since high school anyway. I try to get everything that is modular as well.

My goal is to keep everything that I own in a small bag. I also want the bag to be flat and fit under plane seats to save money.

I could probably bring less tech, but I use it to work and game competitively. As you will see, I sweat a lot, so I also prepare for that.

Bag

- Osprey Daylite Expandable Travel Pack 26+6 (Might replace with Evergoods CPL24 for a better look)

Computer and gaming

- Framework Laptop 16 (I can upgrade it over time, but I may get a small Midori desktop in the future)

Ryzen AI 9 HX 370

RTX 5070 graphics module

32GB RAM

1TB SSD

- Minix 165w Charger (It is small but gets very hot) (I have to run the Framework laptop on power efficiency mode in order to run it below 140w for …

I spent months on 30L vs 40L and missed the actual variable. Once I committed to sink laundry every third night, four shirts replaced seven and the size question answered itself.

The tradeoff is that it moves the cost from my back to my evenings, and some nights I don’t want to spend twenty minutes at a sink.

So where do you land, building the list around a laundry cadence, or picking the cadence that lets you carry what you wanted anyway?

I’m going into a city for a week then near a cost for a week. My bag is a osprey daylite 266.

Have you got any remarks or recommandation for it to go well ? Im a bit scared of forgetting something…

Upgraded the solution for improving the top mounting points inside my Evergoods Bag, now with Fidlocks. Cap 1 snaps in and is held in place securely, can be opened in place and closed in place. Two pulls on the cordage (one to the right and one to the left) will pop it out. Can also run the cordage up above and pull it out without opening the main compartment too much.

The Cap1 requires no permanent modifications, all the hardware just hooks onto webbing. For other pouches (like the Peak Design pouch in the photos) you can modify them to attach with another Fidlock piece.

Parts list in comments.

The reason I sold all three of my Evergoods bags boils down to the exact same issues. First, the shoulder strap webbing is fraying, looking like shedding fur, and I absolutely hate looking at it. Second, all three of my bags (CHZ22, CBB22, PLC20) are incredibly uncomfortable to wear; it feels like they never fit my body properly.

I feel like Evergoods bags are designed to be worn high up on the shoulders and tight against the back. However, in this position, the straps become very short. When I take the bag off or put it back on, the strap webbing constantly rubs aggressively against my arms, causing the webbing to fray terribly, just like in the picture! Ultimately, I decided to just sell them all. Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely love Evergoods’ styling, including their pouches and slings—I own several of them and will definitely keep using them. But as for their backpacks, I am selling every single one.

As a side note, I own several backpacks from other brands like …

For any of you who have purchased an Evergoods CPL or CTB bag in the summer capsule xpac release, here is a simple hack for you guys.

It has been a known tiny issue on the CPL and CTB that the vertical zippers such as the laptop compartment zipper and the front panel zipper when closed are too near the other zippers. For example, the laptop zipper is way too close to the yoke pocket, making it annoying as sometimes the wrong zipper is pulled.

The known solution was to change the zipper pulls, and on the regular versions of the bag, you would need to buy new zipper pulls, but that is not the case for the coyote xpac versions of the bag, as inside of the main compartment on the front flap there are two coyote zipper pulls, which you can swap out for the two vertical black zipper pulls on the outside of the bag, solving the problem for free!

TL;DR: Free coyote zippers from inside of the front flap that you can change out for the laptop and front panel zippers on the X-Pac Version of …

As the topic says, I am planning to get a CPL24. I am already on the Evergoods ecosystem and use CHZ22 for EDC and CTB26 for travel.
I am thinking of CPL24 cause sometimes when I need to carry my gym gear to work CHZ22 isn’t enough. I tried CTB26 couple of times and it’s too big. My biggest hesitation is that I have never had a backpack without an external water bottle holder so I am hoping to get some different perspectives that will help me form a decision!!!

Thank you everyone!!! 🙌🏻
