Filson m8.

>>8471401
They are a previous season and sold out.
I'm looking for an alternative to them.

>>8471294

want!

>>8471424
That's too bad, gonna sound real pleb but have you checked out eastpak/jansport they have some decent bag collab things

Anyone rec any simple black backpacks?

Here you go

>>8471442
not pleb at all imo.
I looked through some of them and they seemed pretty nice.

so what do you guys do with this thing?

>>8471443
rains make a nice one

>>8472249
Carabiner or key rings if you're ballsy

Triple Aught Design Fast Pack EDC

>>8471488
what's the quality of the fjallraven kanken like? first-hand impressions?

>>8471488

Fix'd

Left or right?

>>8472812
I have 40 year old one my mom gave me.
She got it when she was 10
It could be that they made them different back then but my experience with everything Fjallraven I have owned is that the build quality is insanely good. It's essentially designed as techwear for hiking and all sort of /out/ stuff and the quality/price ratio is just really good.

>>8472812
All of fjällräven stuff is very good quality.

>>8472850
Also I should mention that my older brother got a Fjallraven jacket form my granddad, god knows how old it was but he eventually trashed it because he wore it skateboarding and took a bad hit.
I also have Fjallraven flannel shirt I've had for 7 years and even though it's not as soft, it's still as good as new.
You can't really go wrong with Fjallraven as far as the quality goes. Fuck I sound like a huge shill.

>>8472850
>>8472861
cheers, gonna get a huge one (btw online store is having a sale)

>>8472844
go with right, you'll get shit on for having herschel plus eastpak is confirmed quality

>>8472912
Sweet, thanks. They're both the same price anyway.

>>8472850

They're all made in china now so corners cut, not as good as what you have.

Looking for sporty and big but also /fa/

>>8469098
truly autismal

>>8469068
why does every normie wear these now? literally I can't go a day without seeing one of them

I have one of these. Is small but resilient as shit. Also >plain black stuff going with everything. When I need to carry large shit I just use a rucksack

>>8474315
Hype "muh quality in the past"
Ubiquity: made in china - more made, more readily available.

The usual reasons when rot seeps into a once good brand that whores itself out to mass appeal.

>>8469098
Mission Workshop are great if you ride a bike everyday and panniers are too awkward to handle for you but GOD DAMN are they expensive

Mr. Porter has this back in stock for like $350

found this cheap at goodwill, I don't use it much but when I do need a small day pack for riding my bike, festival or a weekend trip or whatever it works great. It has a front pocket, big main pocket and smaller zip pocket inside

Seamrip the logo off a Jansport rightpack. Looks 100x better. This olive color is fire but its sold out everywhere.

I'll just use this thread.
Any opinions of Filson 256? Thinking of maybe copping.

>>8469068
Gettin the Pleasanton soon...

>>8475991
To be fair Fjallraven still makes pretty fucking good quality clothes even though they are manufactured in China, at least the few pieces I have are in great condition even though they have been in use 2-7 years.
But yeah it's kind of a shame it isn't based on Sweden anymore. And as much as I like Kanken, fucking EVERYONE and their grandmas dogs have some variation of it these days.

>>8477162
>Thinking of maybe copping.
What color?

>>8477270
Either the brown one of Otter Green one.

>>8477373
I hear the tan one looks beat up much faster, and that the green one looks new for longer. Depends what you want, really.

I got one of these recently: Billykirk carryall 165 (medium), for a general bag, but it's not the best shape for carrying a laptop (it's like an old doctor's bag and opens wide) so I'm looking at Filson as well.

Navy filson looks kinda boring, ditto with black.
Might end up with Tan as i'm not all too fond of the military-like green.

this one. OP pic looks autistic

>>8478310

>>8478973
its true :)

What about one for backpacking abroad?

Nordstrom has some decent shit but it's expensive for what it is.

>>8479066
This was so subtle. Nice job!

>>8479008
The reality is that it doesn't actually look homer simpson'y in person. The picture is just really unflattering I guess. I have one in navy. It is a little small, so I have to divide up my college courses into two main piles, but otherwise it is a good little backpack. Probably one of my favorite backpacks next to the one I got in a kickstarter a while back.

Have anyone tried the rush 12?

Planning to buy a bag that will last a long time (poorfag here)

>>8479089
you must be new

someday ;_;

Bumping this because im still looking for a good bag and wondered if anyone else had suggestions

>>8482942
just go with Kånken, it's a solid choice imo

i've seen guys with them, it looks fine
>also i have one but thats not why

>>8482953
“Hipster” is a term co-opted for use as a meaningless pejorative in order to vaguely call someone else’s authenticity into question and, by extension, claim authenticity for yourself.

It serves no conversational function and imparts no information, save for indicating the opinions and preferences of the speaker.

Meanwhile, a market myth has sprung up around the term, as well as a cultural bogeyman consisting of elusive white 20-somethings who wear certain clothes (but no one will agree on what), listen to certain music (no one can agree on this either), and act a certain way (you’ve probably sensed the pattern on your own).

You can’t define what “that kind of behavior or fashion or lifestyle” actually is, nor will you ever be able to. That’s because you don’t use “hipster” to describe an actual group of people, but to describe a fictional stereotype that is an outlet for literally anything that annoys you.

The twist, of course, is that if it weren’t for your own insecurities, nothing that a “hipster” could do or wear would ever affect you emotionally. But you are insecure about your own authenticity - “Do I wear what I wear because I want to? Do I listen to my music because I truly like it? I’m certainly not like those filthy hipsters!” - so you project those feelings.

Suffice it to say, no one self-identifies as a hipster; the term is always applied to an Other, to separate the authentic Us from the inauthentic, “ironic” Them.

tl;dr: if you believe hipsters exist, you are a plebeian.

Do you guys remember that 1 backpack that was drenched in seawater or something before being sent to you?

bump

n e 1 know w2c?

need opinions

i want a new backpack and i was wondering if the herschel heritage or jansport right pack is better. i hear that herschel tends to be more durable, but i also hear stories of people using right packs for nearly two decades and not getting any signs of wear until recently.

both packs are the same price and i don't know if i'm willing to stretch my poor-ass budget another 10 bucks for the everlane snap backpack

>>8469068
I have the beige backpack OP.

Here's my review of the canvas backpack (pictured).

Got it from a Chinese wholesale website (That one with the weird name)
Great stability and comfort even after 3+ years. Front zippers failed, no longer zips up though. The pocket's inside the backpack are great but mostly useless for what I use it for (storing my laptop). I kind of wish I just bought a backpack with more outside pockets, because I never utilize the inside ones. The other downside is that the inside pockets are very flimsy as they have no backing material built inside the fabrics. Overall, apart from the shitty zippers, the backpack has shown 0 signs of failure or ripping. The leather is great too.

I should note I removed the canvas lace that closes the backpack up. I went to Joannes and bought some really durable, thick, cotton yard (like 1/8th or something that fits through the holes inside). Works great. I would recommend anyone a canvas bag in a heartbeat. I'm also pretty cross-faded

>>8483759
Aliexpress I think. Also it cost about $50 w/ free 3-week shipping. Worth it

If you need it to carry shit don't go with what's fashionable to with what works, you don't fuck up your back and shoulders dude
I have a great big ugly caribee backpack because I need to carry my work boots and uniform to work

I wish more people considered the C&C Isar. I get mad compliments on mine, and it’s still just like new after a year of quite heavy use.

>buying a WWI horsehair pack

Fucking /fa/

Faggots don't even know backpacks, fucking casuals.Get on my Level

>>8481550
i was looking at that but it seemed to tactical for me. went with a north face surge ii

Can anyone recommend more backpacks in the same vein as this one? Preferably black.

>>8472912
why no Herschel?

>>8483823
it was made to be used
it's fulfilling its purpose
it's happy

still, too bad its owner is an undeserving weakling fedora

okay so it cries a bit at night, but it's still happy being used

>>8483997
nooooo you look like a fagggggot

>>8469068

I use this at Uni, it was a free cop & the smaller size is perfect for my macbook, notebook, maybe a text book.

i don't like displaying brand names, but when i saw how it was stitched on and had the name on the zips too, i was sold. as long as I'm not wearing ray bans with the pack on, the autism feels subside.

>>8483823
Guy who posted that here

Saw it on eBay for $50, but there was a reserve so I didn't bid. I would have maybe taken it out once to show to my friends while being highly paranoid, then shelved it and took care of it.

>>8484501
But this guy's right. If you take proper care of it you can use it. And it looks pretty damn nice for it's age.

I've been wanting to get into collecting WWI Kraut shit for a few months now, but I'm too poorfag. If this didn't have a reserve I might have tried it since it was still at $50 with 30 min left.

>>8483794

I'm thinking of copping this when uni starts, what do you think?

Goddamn man, I just looked this backpack up. It looks great, but I can't find it anywhere in my country.

wut?

>>8472812
I have two that are older than I am. It'll fade, but that just improves it imo. I think the new ones are made of more synthetic materials that don't look as good, so try looking for an old one online.

I've been looking for a good backpack that'll go well with my Flecktarn.
I often carry around a lot of books and my laptop, so preferably a bad that does not get uncomfortable with a lot of weight in it.
Anyone got any recommendations?

Any thoughts on the Nike All Access Halfday? Looks pretty decent for twenty bucks

>>8483931
nice choice

>>8477187
>>
it looks like shit in real life. cheap and fake

>>8483794
Which material is your bag? I know they have yarn and canvas and some other stuff.

I love large camping and mountaineering backpacks! they're so cool looking, and you can literally cary your entire life in them.

>>8472015
those wwi backpacks are amazing looking. they're so interesting i've never seen anything like them!

>>8472249
lots of things! if you're into hiking or climbing you can put all kinds of stuff through them. like hang ice picks off them, or hang shoes by the laces. idk why you'd put your keys on though, sounds like kinda a dumb idea.

>>8483997

>>8487579
i agree

IS THE KANKEN WORTH BUYING

is there anyway to buy everlane in aus?

>>8469068
thoughts on this, use it everyday

opinions on the jansport oxidation?
just the appearance, unless you own one have personal input.

>>8483718
my right pack was shit
it was the one with the leather on the bottom, right?
ripped in less than 2 weeks, hole became a quarter after like 10 days
would not recommend, returned it and got the City Scout (same thing but bottom is nylon, not leather)
mine is still fine, but seems like its wearing away slowly.

>>8490411
i prefer the baughman

>>8490075
yes, nothing groundbreaking but a good and durable backpack and there's a high chance that people who see your backpack think it looks great because unlike /fa/, the real world still seems to like the brand

Does anyone know of a backpack that kind of looks like those Eastpak/Jansport/Herschel backpacks but without that dumb boxy front pocket?

>none selfidentifies as a hipster
yeah they do
it is like "nerd", they are terms with glamour now
hipsters were probably urban faggots with unique specialsnowflakelike cultural costumes as nerds were basementdwellers

now nerd and hipster are words for a set of superficial aesthetic values

>>8491356
it also comes in a military green

>>8472850
>>8472861
>>8472875
nah, maybe a step above jansport, but really not THAT good...

>>8472880
>>8472812
don't expect a miracle for 75$, man. i can't speak for older ones, but these days North Face backpacks are probably more durable, if that gives you any perspective...

>>8476235
no offense, but this kinda reminds me of the girl in high school who lived in a trailer and probably smoked weed with her mom, and who really didn't grasp any of the concepts in chemistry class and probably didn't have plans to go to college after high school - and not that that's a bad thing because it's probably not for everybody - but you just knew she wasn't going on to do good things after, either. her future was fraught with unplanned pregnancies and drunken fights with ex-boyfriends, and she was never going to own a car nicer than a beat up cavalier, and you felt kinda bad for her, but at the same time, she didn't even give enough fucks to do well in school, so she sure as hell didn't give a fuck about random people 'feeling bad' for her. she probably gets in nasty facebook arguments with random other shitty people often.

yeah, that's the sort of bag she would put her shit in.

>>8483997
will go well w/ur upside-down nike visor and fubu sweats

>>8491531
god dammit anon i know exactly the type of person you are talking about and i can totally see her having that bag. fuck.

>>8484563
not too bad. i feel like it could be hella bad if the wrong person was walkin around w/it. you seem self-aware/confident enough to pull it off tho.

>>8491575
just go full-on poverty slut core, and u should be good, friend!

Will the Fjallraven Kanken actually hold up or should I just go for a jansports right?

>>8491871
for the price i'd just do jansport as a shit-kicker, and put the difference towards something nicer than both

where do I get a briefcase... that I wear on my back
I think it would be sort of like a randoseru

i'd pick the transparent bag over the jansport any day but i'm afraid it'll kind of look like i want to get my shit jacked

>>8492992
Any idea what brand this is?

>>8490331
I have one. It's pretty good. Fits my winter coat and a bunch of papers. It looks decent, but my aesthetic changed a lot since I bought it. I'll sell it to you for $50, though.

some sort of Fjallraven. Browse their number bags. I cbf but it is one of them

>>8494869
A neutral tone canvas one is a must-have for me. Never tried other materials though.

>>8493836
Great quality, I know the dudes who created it and helped them out at a trade show once. They are sometimes sold at opening ceremony so take the bag for a run.

I would bathe in the leather they use it's so nice.

>>8494869
im also looking one too for everyday trips
