I’ve been collecting leather bags for years, and I’ve come to prefer vegetable-tanned leather. I used to think Saddleback Leather was the best, but I’ve discovered so many better brands out there.
I’ve filmed unboxings of most of my bags, so if anyone’s interested, let me know, and I’ll post them in the comments.
Which is your favorite?

I love my alpaka go sling but often have to carry a laptop for work. I don’t even wanna bother with transferring all my stuff from the sling into the other bag so I opted to get an AER duffel bag where I just throw the sling in and can carry my laptop.
I’ve found that this is kind of overkill and was wondering if anyone else has a better suggestion for a bag that can fit my go sling in? Or am I crazy for doing this in the first place?
Edit: thanks everyone for your comments, I think I need to go with a smaller flatter sling and everything will be fine. I’ll be able to put it in any of my backpacks.
First time posting, been lurking for a while. Before I even knew about this sub, for long time I’ve liked the idea of creating a perfect bag setup for travelling. We always pack light and often do hand luggage only, but this is the first time taking it a bit more seriously.
Yes, technically it’s twobag as I’m taking a shoulder bag as well, but it could fit into the backpack if needed.
I am fully expected to get torn apart for having more than 2 t-shirts etc. - I know I haven’t gone particularly extreme but please be nice! Planning to do laundry once a week and don’t have merino stuff so not sure about re-wearing socks, t-shirts etc. yet!
We will be travelling to Sweden and then Colombia, Bolivia, Peru and Brazil, about a week in each. Temperatures range from 33C/91F to -5C/23F so it’s tricky planning for both extremes!
The bag is the Forclaz Travel 40L from Decathlon. Used it for one trip before and absolutely love it! Technically goes above …
I just completed an eighteen day trip in Europe. Visited London England, Lisbon Portugal, Paris France, multiple cities throughout Romania, and Zürich Switzerland. This is my second trip to Europe with the Farpoint and I love it. I use the attached daypack for the airplane or for exploring cities on foot.
Went down a rabbit hole today while researching a new bags for myself. I’ve notice that almost all the Japanese travel vloggers on Youtube universally chose black backpacks and a sizable percentage use a large CabinZero bags. Is this a cultural aesthetic? If it is, then are there other cultural differences in the ways people from different country pack?
…there are more on Youtube
I have the newest version of the Osprey Daylite 26+6 as well as the old one.
(One for me and one for my girlfriend. Needed to test them before committing to two and they just never really came back in stock after my first test.)
There isn’t that much reason to get the new one if you have the old one.
It’s not noticeably larger or smaller in any dimension. All the materials are the same.
There is an extra layer of lining material in the admin pocket.
Here are the main differences to look out for while going through the pictures.
Most of the pictures have notes on them so you don’t have to remember everything.
New bag:
Damn it felt good to not have to worry about luggage.
I bought a 3-pack of cut 1 shirts a few years ago and didn’t really wear em until recently. All 3 developed holes in various places in less than 3 wears. Anyone else have similar experiences? Can anyone recommend a better brand?
A photocopy of a pants experiment [#443]. A clean and deceptively simple pleated pant in Photostat Aginghamjacquard, a complex black-and-white jacquard weave from Albini that looks like a photocopy of a folded and creased gingham. Forward facing single pleats give these pants a sharply boxed out look. Ships unhemmed.
Hi,

So I bought different tank tops to try and they seemed to all show nips, even the black ones. The ones that seemed fine in that regard are the Ramielust and the new earth. Would I do better sizing up because they are just too tight or have other folks experienced the same?
I have the Ultrahigh Dufflepack and after who knows how many years, one of the cam buckles broke. Anyone have any repair ideas? Or know where to find the original cam buckle?
