Ask DS - Backpack
Posted: Mon Aug 28, 2017 2:06 pm
I am in the market for a new carry bag. Between office, kid, etc. I am always carrying a bunch of stuff. I have decided to go with a backpack design due to its ease of use in travel. What are the recommendations from this board?
If I could make my own, it would have the following:
- 40 liter capacity
- A removable waistbelt
- Front loading
- Internal supports
- Adjustable straps for shoulders, chest, and compression
- a warranty
- Hydration capable
- a hybrid (can go from messenger bag to suitcase to backpack sort of thing)
Do they even make such an animal? If so, where would you get it? What do you use and why? And finally, what other qualities do you want in an EDC bag?
I'm looking for advise, so please provide your best input. Thanks.
