  • A one month review of the Patagonia Black Hole Mini MLC 30L pack... Is it worth that $200 price tag?? Is it really one of the best EDC and travel bags available right now??
    ALSO, stay tuned for a potential giveaway of one of these bags! I'd like to give back to my subscribers by giving away the packs from my most successful videos every few months, so please consider subscribing and commenting with which pack/gear I should review next for a chance to win that product!
    Coming soon: An overview of the Patagonia Black Hole MLC 45L, packs from Eberlestock, Mystery Ranch, Gregory, Patagonia, and more!

    Cotopaxi, TNF and Marmot have bags in similar (boxy) format. It would be nice to see a side-by-side comparison
    I have the very first Patagonia 32l black hole backpack which has zippers on top and the whole of one side so that half of the bag opens -- has a laptop compartment and an interior pocket for water bottle.

    Would love to see your review on backpacks such as the knack pack series 2, osprey 26+6, and how you would compare it to this patagonia mlc with weather durability, edc usage and as a travel bag.

    • @SJA-Reviews
      @SJA-Reviews  ปีที่แล้ว

      @neneadventures I’ll check those out and see what I can do!

    Thanks a lot for the update! There are not many reviews of this backpack on youtube. Do you think it can also work as a hiking bag for short 1 to 2 days trips?

    • @SJA-Reviews
      @SJA-Reviews  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @scottlin2287 Could it? Sure, but I wouldn’t use it for that. I think you’d be happier with an actual load bearing pack that has better shoulder straps, a better hip belt, and airflow on the back panel. That kind of pack would make your hikes far more comfortable and enjoyable! Hope this helps

    It's the same bag as the 2022 mlc 26l mini. They simply renamed it to reflect the actual size.

    Man, so torn on this bag vs the Cotopaxi allapa 35L/42L. They are about the same price and style. Leaning towards the cotopaxi now because of the water concern now.

    • @mlgneo2855
      @mlgneo2855 26 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Why go that big, the 28L is more than enough. The TPU coating is concerning though

    can you review this vs north face duffels?

    • @SJA-Reviews
      @SJA-Reviews  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @Marcus-ri1zt Sure thing! I’ve been interested in the North Face Base Camp Voyager 32 so I can compare the Patagonia MLC 30 to that one, as well as the Voyager 42 vs the MLC 45

    i wanna get the 45L version but afraid will look big on me.

    • @SJA-Reviews
      @SJA-Reviews  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @dsmileyyy When I do the overview of the 45L, I’ll be sure to do a size and fit comparison to the 30L. Hopefully that will help you a bit!

    Hi sir. first all good day can you make video that can you recommend best backpack to use to travel all around the world thank you very much

    • @SJA-Reviews
      @SJA-Reviews  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It would depend on what your needs are, but something in the 30-40L range, weather resistant, tech compartment, and good internal organization would be key features I’d look for

    The Mini MLC makes very little sense to me. It is just not as good to carry as a backpack as many many many other 30l backpacks on the market and then it is not as useful for air travel as its bigger brother. If you need a bag for carry on just get the bigger one.
