Nice review very thorough and informative! I also like that you show the Navy Blue color my favorite color, and not only the black! I´m thinking about buying either this one or the Nomatic Backpack that is sleeker and not as bulky on your back when expanded as it only expands at the bottom part. For daily use probably a better choice, but if you want to go away for a weekend now and then the Travel Pack packs more!😉If it wasn´t so expensive I would probably have bought both models! Lol😁 What I don´t like are the bottle-holders, on the outside as I usually travel in hot tropical climate bottles will quickly get very hot, so I would prefer some zippered inside pockets on the side to hide the bottle from direkt sunlight, and the backpack would also look more sleek without bottle-wings on the sides sticking out. Inside zippered side pocket would also be perfect to keep an umbrella or small tripod, it would take up some of the space inside, but for a day-trip to the jungle or the beach I only keep some camera stuff and a towel in the main compartment anyway! 🙂
