Would love to see some behind the scenes, how do you have such smooth pan shots with you walking in crowded locations. Amazing videos, i think this channel is going to grow super fast - Awesome content, good collection of bags, professional editing.
Thanks for the comment Kevin! This list only includes messengers that we have pesronally reviewed - I've heard amazing things about Timbuk2, hopefully we can review one of their products soon 😎
You have the best bag reviews I've ever seen! Had I found your videos sooner I could have saved a lot of money as I have many bags, not all favorites ;)
Yes that is Hong Kong 🇭🇰. I get them all from the web, but there is a great backpack store I go to sometime called Suburban. They have two locations - one in CWB and the other in Kwun Tong
Hi! Have you made or plan to make a video for the aer travel sling 2? I checked the videos and only saw the aer tech sling 2 which I'm also debating on getting. Thanks!
Billingham Bags. You have gotta get a Billingham aka Billi Bag. The Hadley, Hadley Pro and Hadley One are the BEST bags PERIOD!!!! Quality materials Waterproof Timeless looks Bulletproof design Removable padded camera dividers
The Aer Commuter Brief 2 sucks as a messenger - the strap is way too short and the main compartment was too small to even fit my lunchbag. I returned it and got the Peak Designs Everyday Messenger V2 which unfortunately doesn't have all the storage options as the Aer but is a much better size for me.
I agree about the strap, but it not fitting your lunch box shouldn't be a negative, it's just not the right size for your specific EDC needs. Glad you like the Peak Design tho!
Any recommendations for something that slides over the handle of a carry on roller a bit smaller than a messenger! I like the nomatic but feel its too big, I want something to hold a laptop ipad tech pouch and glasses everyday carry sort of stuff. Cheers for any help
Another great review as always guys! I purchased the modern dayfarer backpack via your affiliate link but the order had to get cancelled due to complications (they can't ship to the UK at the moment.). I managed to get it ordered but just wanted to check if you were compensated from me using the affiliate link? I've asked the manufacturer to look into compensating you guys since it was your great review that led me to purchasing.
Hey there, thank you so much for this, there's no way for me to check but I'm sure it will go through! Let me know what you think of the pack once you get it :)
@@Nomads.Nation No problem! The manufacturer responded recently confirming he will ensure it goes through for you guys, which I'm really glad to hear, you guys rock and deserve all the support. I did indeed get the bag, and I love it! Everything from the sleek/sexy look, to the functionality and surprisingly good storage capacity. Only thing I think may've been worth adding was a buckle for the 2 loose side straps, it would've added more function to it. NTL, I'm really happy with my purchase :D
@@Nomads.Nation Yeah I figured as much but with a back injury I needed to make my bag lighter Classes I don’t need my bag for I’ll just bring the messenger
@@elchancho8432 I hope this works, but it might make it worse. If so, try and get a small light backpack that has a great hip belt like a hiking bag from Osprey or Patagonia
Do you want to help me build a game-changing backpack? 👉🏼 nomadsnation.com/building-a-backpack
I agree with your every word about aer tech sling 2, been using it for two years and still my favourite laptop bag, super comfortable and durable
It’s an amazing bag

Thanks so much Chinmay! I'll ask our camera-wizard Tav about the possibility of doing a behind the scenes video :)
@@Nomads.Nation That would be wonderful.
Hey Aaron any chance you can make an updated video for the best messenger/brief bags?
we are shooting this video very soon!
Would love to hear your thoughts on the Aer Travel Sling.
I would love to do a review of that / hopefully in the next few months!
Love this channel!
Thanks so much!
Really like your videos! Maybe for leather messenger an interesting bag to consider could be the Waterfield Design Executive Leather Messenger?
Thanks for the rec Charlotte! I've added it to our wish list :)
How can you not include Timbuk2 in this category???
Thanks for the comment Kevin! This list only includes messengers that we have pesronally reviewed - I've heard amazing things about Timbuk2, hopefully we can review one of their products soon 😎
Thanks for the cool suggestions! Can you please review the new Alpaka Alpha Messenger Bag?
My pleasure! And yes, it’s on my radar - hopefully soon
Got the original tech sling, indeed a great sling/brief case, too bad, I carry more stuff (homemade meals) nowadays. looking for a bigger bag.
100% agreed - it's amazing but also too small for my personal EDC needs :(
I think the ITS tactical discreet messenger is worth mentioning
I'll be sure to check it out
thank you! great review
Glad it was helpful!
You have the best bag reviews I've ever seen! Had I found your videos sooner I could have saved a lot of money as I have many bags, not all favorites ;)
Wow thank you so much - so glad you found our reviews useful :)
You are wrong! Aaron's reviews tempts you to buy all the bags! 😊
hey, saw thw hong kong background, mind if you tell where do you buy these products in the videos? just on the web?
Yes that is Hong Kong 🇭🇰. I get them all from the web, but there is a great backpack store I go to sometime called Suburban. They have two locations - one in CWB and the other in Kwun Tong
Hi! Have you made or plan to make a video for the aer travel sling 2? I checked the videos and only saw the aer tech sling 2 which I'm also debating on getting. Thanks!
Hopefully soon! It's one of the few Aer products I haven't got my hands on yet
What would you recommend aer commuters bag or bellroy tokyo messenger back ?
both are great, I prefer Aer
@@Nomads.Nation ahh snap !! I just purchased the bellroy 🙄
Rad review. Thank you.
Glad you found it useful!
You guys need more subs, great reviews
Thanks so much man - we are a new channel but we are growing fast!
Billingham Bags.
You have gotta get a Billingham aka Billi Bag.
The Hadley, Hadley Pro and Hadley One are the BEST bags PERIOD!!!!
Quality materials
Waterproof
Timeless looks
Bulletproof design
Removable padded camera dividers
I’ll check them out - thanks!
but you didn't include your favorite, the Aer Tech Sling 2, or Travel Sling 2, which both are essentially messenger slings.
Great point! I think at this time I just considered it a sling, but if I could do this video over I would absolutely include it
Can you talk about calvin klein backpacks plz
Interesting request! I'll add it to our wish list :)
Have you checked out the Chrome Industries Burian III?
Haven’t reviewed any Chrome yet unfortunately - hopefully soon!
The 5.11 RUSH should be considered. It's a bit much but still has high quality.
Great recommendation - I've added it to our wish list :)
The Jason Bourne of Messengers
Deadly and highly elusive
Arc'teryx Leaf courier bag 15.
Would be an interesting review
one day! it very so cool
I'm torn between Tumi Laptop brief Alpha 3 & Nomatic, Nomatic is kinda bulky but very organized... what do you recommend? thanks
Great question but I can't say for sure as I've never tested the Tumi - the bulkiness of the Nomatic should not be understated - it's annoying lol
Alex Clute of The Chris Gethard Show is BY FAR the best messenger bag. Especially when he was still a random.
I don’t know what this means but I love it
Come onnnnn again with that leather thing
Believe it or not, some people are absolutely in love with it 😂

If you like Nomatic, check out their Tech Case. Should be exactly what you are looking for
@@Nomads.Nation I actually like their laptop bag but they don't seem to make it anymore! I more want something between the tech case and the messenger
@@50mm_streets how about the Aer Tech Folio? Or check out Harber and London
@@Nomads.Nation thank you much appreciated
I wouldn’t like to ride a bike with any of these bags. I don’t see any of them as messenger bags
Thanks for the feedback!
Wow, didn't know Estonia exported Vana Tallinn haha.
🇪🇪
can you make budget version max $120 pls? $200++ is too expensive for college student like me XD

Got some real beauties in there! 😍
I got the Nomatic messenger bag for my MacBook/school
My backpack was getting to heavy lmao
That messenger is still really have though, and messengers are never as comfy as backpacks 😬
@@Nomads.Nation Yeah I figured as much but with a back injury I needed to make my bag lighter

its not even my birthday...
"Don't get ripped off" Proceeds to recommend bags worth more than my phone.
There are certainly cheaper messengers available, but this list covers the BEST - and you get what you pay for ;)
@@Nomads.Nation Sorry, buying a bag worth hundreds of dollars is stupid to me. Especially ones that wont carry much.
@@nightwings8984 all good! It’s like anything else in life, you can buy a Toyota or a Bentley, just depends on your preference and budget.
@@nightwings8984why’d you comment then? And how much is your phone? $50???
@@unoriginalyoutubename8761 you obviously didn't watch the video
Which of these is your favorite?
