Bag seems very durable. Didn't realize that the front compartment remains open at the top even when the side zipper is closed, which means I'm hesitant to put anything in there that might accidentally fall out, like my phone, etc.
It's a terrific pack for around town. Daily use. Rugged. Sturdy. Perfect size/capacity for me. I like how it will stay upright resting on its base. Only one minor complaint: for me, I don't like the chest strap. For some reason this one feels bigger and more intrusive than I'm used to. . . So I removed it. Problem solved. I didn't rely on that strap much anyway. Other than that, this pack is terrific.
I really like all the features on this pack. I don't see it so much for outdoor hiking or climbing, but it's great for around town or travelling. It's a bit heavy for a 24 liter pack, but for its intended use that should not be an issue.
I bought this to replace my older Creek Transit 22L. I had my previous bag for 12 total years and used it for everything from personal travel, hiking, climbing, hunting, and business travel. The most impressive moment for this bag was during a motorcycle crash. I had to lay my bike down when a car blew a stop sign at an intersection. I laid the bike down, went over the handle bars and slide 75 feet on my back through the intersection into a storm drain. I was in a tee shirt with only the Creek Transit between me and the road. I walked away without a scratch on me and only a few micro-abrasions to the exterior fabric of the bag. That day, Black Diamond won my loyalty and I will continue to support them. Their products are superior and come to market at a price point that makes buying anything else unnecessary and fiscally foolish. The new bag is fantastic and the upgrades are amazing. The extra 2L from the previous bag actually makes a big difference.
This has been a great do-all pack. Spacious while not being too big. Perfect for long days at the crag, and sturdy enough for hauling up multi-pitch routes. Plenty of pockets for snacks and gear, and is easy to secure the coiled rope to the top. It's also great for just running errands. And comfortable!
Been eyeing this pack for a while. Have bought black diamond gear before and found it to be of high quality. This pack is no exception. Plenty of room and pockets for the daily grind. Durability is without question. Sturdy pack and carries weight better than my last pack. Love it.
Good backpack, perfect size. Wanted the OG version but have been enjoying the pocket for my computer. Great bag for commuting.
Such a cool bag, fits so much stuff and super durable. Bought for my gf, but honestly want to buy one for myself as well.
Excellent pack comfortable to wear for an all day motorcycle ride
