This is my work bag. I keep my laptop charger, cable, and spare usb cable in one of the internal black pockets, my ssd in the other. I keep a big Mx master mouse in the half moon pocket. I have a folding laptop stand in the flat long interior pocket. A bottle in the bottle pocket, and a keyboard in the main cavity. When I’m ready to work away from home I toss in my 14” MBP, notebook, and AirPods. I’ve found it to be the perfect size for this setup and my 5’4” female frame. Very comfortable.
love your review style! relatable, provide insights and it sounds just like how a friend who has been really using the backpack would be sharing with me. i'm always a little happier when i saw that the pack i'm checking out the review is done by Lauren!
I have had the Metro backpack for a few months now and I love it. It stores everything I need in my every day commuting and events and the main compartments wide opening gives me a great overview and easy access to my content. Yeah the gusset covering may be a con but I have flipped it back to make accessability easier.
Fort the price it's great and I like it, my only mild complaints are the zipper cover, as mine gets hung up in that fabric about half the time. The other thing would be a better material on the underside of the straps. I don't like the nylon there. Would rather have a mesh type material or something else. But again, for the price, not much to complain about.
Awesome review. I’ve been looking forward to this one. If I didn’t have 3 backpacks around this capacity I’d get one of these. It’s nice to have quality backpacks that are good for day packs or if you don’t need a ton for work.
This is basically similar to the Moment 17L bit with the front compartment on the opposite side and Moments bag has it's own compartment for the laptop as well as a top drop loader. With the laptop inside along with that large water bottle I see crack screen in the future
I’ve been using this for the past six months, I have a few issues with it. Firstly the quick access zipper is on the wrong side for me and it feels very uncomfortable, 2nd when the smaller pockets inside get full they take up the space of the centre section .. so I’m letting this go ….
I like to buy this one. I have several alpaka bags. do you know is there are any 10-14 liter backpacks from other manufacturers that are interesting. I want to carry mostly Phone filming accessories, power banks, etc.
Not a fan of front vertical zip. Always have anxiety that someone will unzip it without me knowing and all my stuff will fall out. Would be great if they put it behind the back instead
do you guys have backpack recos that are for smol girls but could fit around 11-14L and a laptop? 😢 i know there are a lot of bag reviews here but dunno where to start
that will be better if VX with vertical luggage handle insert/slot. for now... w/o those.. is a bummer and soft meshpocket.. easily breaks.. not a good idea having similar materials.

Hey, what’s your work laptop? Can it take a 14 inch windows laptop? Like thinkpads, not slim ones like XPS.
Lauren is now my favorite Pack Hacker reviewer. Great job Lauren-just the right amount of info, well presented!
Thanks for watching! 😃
Couldn’t agree more! She’s thorough, considerate and as you say, she provides just the right amount of info!
Been using it for 2 weeks; it looks way better in real life. It's easily the only work bag you would need!

The way the zipper is layed out and the shape remind me of the DSPTCH Ridgepack.
waiting for your review on the latest model, Metro BackPack Pro X-Pac
The Metro line (pouch, sling, bag) are all great, but if you have a use for that huge front pocket they are appropriating perfection
Thanks for sharing your insights! 🤙

Wish there was some sort of slack strap management system. I hate loose straps.

Could you please do one about Boundary Supply Errant Pro.

More reviews of backpacks that for security reasons open from the back.
Could you fit an ipad mini in the pocket next to the waterbottle pocket?
My laptop is 36cm tall x 23.5cm wide, could it still fit in the laptop compartment?
Does the pocket inside able to fit lenovo legion go or rog ally?
Yes it fit
Will the water bottle pocket handle a 26 ounce Yeti? I have the Bravo Tote and that does but I’m looking for a backpack that can do that too.
My 32 oz water bottle fit
No lugage pass trough and bottle holder on the outside, reasons why i can't convince my wife to switch to Alpaca. And i have to agree with her
Would it fit a 15” macbook air?
I don't think so, my Lenovo 14 inch fits tight

Check out Gear for the Girls
@@Miamis4me305 nd she doesn’t show much, or anything girl-specific. Same old stuff.
I love it
does the items in the front pocket's side compartment falls off?
that will be better if VX with vertical luggage handle insert/slot. for now... w/o those.. is a bummer and soft meshpocket.. easily breaks.. not a good idea having similar materials.
