What is the best brand for a heavy duty commuter backpack?
What is the best brand for a heavy duty commuter backpack?
I need to buy a really nice bag. I will be moving to Brazil so I need something comfortable that will breathe well. What is the best bag, or brand for bags. I was thinking maybe a deuterusa.com bag? Or how are mountainsmith bags? Jansport? If anyone has any suggestions please comment. I will spend 100-150 price range on the bag.
I will be walking, not biking. I forgot to mention that.
It depends on the size of the bag, your own physical build, and how the bag fits you. Backpacks are as individual as shoes.
Jansport: This bag was good 30+ years ago. They've become totally middle of the road since.
Mountainsmith have been around awhile and have a very good reputation
Kelty: I really like their Redwing panel loading (rather than top loading) mid sized backpack. It fits me really well, has plenty of room for most things I need, and a reasonable price.
I would seriously look at Jandd. They make both backpacks and panniers. Their build quality is second to none. I've had Jannd panniers for 10 years without a single hitch and they still look like new. I've had their expedition panniers and found they are quite water resistant. They'll keep out the majority of weather. And if you choose, they make water proof panniers.
The other really top end panniers and/or backpack are Ortlieb. They are best known for being waterproof and durable. These have a great reputation that has been earned. Their backpack is a little more of a modified dry bag with shoulder straps, but I haven't had an opportunity to try it.
