I think the V2 is an upgrade over the V1 in most areas. I do wish that they kept the little pocket in the backstraps, and that they made the top flap a little as neat as the V1's. The shoe compartment is brilliant though. I don't combine my gym stuff with my everyday stuff. I just carry a separate bag. My clothes need a separate place as well because they get sweaty too. Where the shoe compartment works well for, is a light raincoat and compact foldable umbrella. When you're back inside after a shower, you can pack it up in the compartment, the moisture stays out of the rest of the bag, but evaporates through the holes. Things I want to see in the V3: Standing upright - Despite they've improved it as you can see in the vid, in the V3 I want the Dayfarer to be as sturdy standing up as the Nomatic Backpack and Peak Design Everyday Backpack. Pockets - Extra pockets like a dedicated one for a TKL keyboard, another for a mouse, and another for a tablet. Straps - Optional sternum and waist straps. When you pack heavy, they're great. Securing the top sides - Buckle buttons for the top side. If you're not careful, the sides are not stowed underneath the top flap, and water can get in. Passthrough holes - One that sits between the middle of the pack and the laptop compartment (to pass through charger cable for the laptop). And another waterproof passthrough on the side to be able to charge your phone while on on the go. TSA locks - A TSA version or mod of the Fidlock lock. And loops next to zippers, so that we can lock them with TSA locks. Cleaning up the top flag - Make it as straight as the V1's. If they can keep everything else on the V2 as it is now (same materials, same weight, shoe compartment, toploader-clamshell hybrid design etc etc), then I don't even mind if they'd raise the price by 50€. It be my endgame bag.

Not gonna lie, this looks pretty great. I like the less bulky shape than the v1. Love the shoe compartment for my climbing shoes and chalk bag.

I have the v1 in XPac (which I got based on your review!) as my EDC. I adore it - best backpack I've ever owned. I added a magnetic latch for the key leash. The v2 looks sleek and I dig the new back panel, but I'm not sure it's worth the upgrade for me. I'm not sold on the 840D, and I prefer the side pocket to be as easy and accessible as possible (quick access ftw). Call me crazy, but I adjust the front strap often enough that I prefer not to have a dangle stopper there. Still love the overall design and functionality though. As always, great review!

Hi@@user-jo1yv6ss8w! Happy to help. I ended up getting the AER and I must say I really like it. The only downside for me is the fact that it does not stand up straight and will fall, so I need to put it against something. Its really versatile and fits my lifestyle. I can take it to sports, take it for a short two day trip, and daily office without having extra things inside works great too. On my way back from the office i sometimes stop at the supermarkt to do some groceries and this bag gives me plenty of space to do so. On full capacity (gym clothes, office stuff) it becomes a bit tight everything but I do not mind.

Hey Aaron. Appreciated how detailed this video is. I'm super interested in the Modern Dayfarer backpack but I'm a little torn between the two versions because it seems like V2 is slightly longer and wider in exchange for being flatter. I'm 5'2" which means 18" is about as long as a bag can be without feeling too long. Modern Dayfarer quotes V1 at 18" and V2 at 18.9". Did you notice those length and width differences/how is the fit different between v1 and v2?
@Nomads.Nation
Жыл бұрын
Hey RB, thanks for the question. So I did not notice at all, in fact although it might technically be longer, because of it's compression and less boxiness, it feels smaller to me. I'm 5'8 so my experience is obviously different but hopefully it can give you some direction :)

If you watch around 1:44 into the video, the V1 is falling over as Aaron lets go of it, but the V2 seems to be standing up on its own. Also around 6:20, it seems to stand up on its own. Not sure if it's due to the contents so take that for what it's worth.

I feel like the laptop compartment feels a bit tight and can't fit any more than the laptop. Like a charger or powerbank. I'd prefer my tech stuff to be all in one component. There's also only one place to put things, so I might be wary of putting two devices together inside. Like an iPad or powerbank and a laptop. The two will hit each other while walking and cause dents etc. Quick access is super important to me to be able to access things on the go.. I'm also afraid with the dual zippers for the middle compartment, the backpack might just open and give way if I try to unzip it while standing causing contents to fall out. Happened to me once in the train for another bag. I do like the shoe compartment that can be converted though. Thanks for the review!

I just bought this as it is exactly what I’m looking for in a work/gym carry. One question I have on this and other bags is, why does the laptop sleeve (perfectly position here) need to be padded on both sides? The back side I understand; but if you’re carrying items in the front of the bag, and even if you’re not, why do we need a second thick padding on the front of the sleeve, which after all is just the back wall of the main compartment, where presumably you have other stuff to act as padding? Seems like you could reduce weight and thickness by eliminating it. Thoughts?

Hey Aaron, have the straps broken in more over time, or are they still super stiff?

@@Nomads.Nation Oh right. Did the shoulder straps break badly or so? My V2 arrived on Friday and I love it! Very slick and professional but still super practical. But I also realised I don’t have that many stuff to put it in my bag other than the basic and gym clothes and shoes LOL

If this is how the bag looks like on your back when you max it out, I definitely don't want it. 3:23

The magnet in the front of the bag is usually more centered, but def was a bit crooked at that spot

What do you think about the strap shape/geometry? The V1s felt like they were attached too close and angled too vertically for me. I'm not a huge dude but the straps would always force their way out unless I used the chest strap to cinch them together. The fabric on the backpads on my V1 also pilled up like crazy. Really nasty & cheap material. How does the new fabric feel from a longevity perspective?

@Aaron Radcliffe (Nomads Nation) The mesh covering the pads. It got ratty looking really quickly. To be clear: I like my V1 a lot, but the worst made part were the pads. The rest still looks fine.

Buyer beware. It took more than 60 days between when they charged my credit card and when the product arrived. (read the fine print on their website before you buy) The bag was not even in production when I purchased it. When I tried to return it because it's a shoddy product with slick marketing I was told that I'd have to ship it from USA to Germany, which woulg cost me another $100 in addition to the $300 that I already wasted. Customer service is non-existent at this company. I'm selling mine on eBay if anyone wants to buy this at a reduced rate. Don't believe the hype. This backpack doesn't even stand up straight when you place it one the ground. It falls over on it's side. The side pockets were too small to even hold my water bottle. It's tiny and uncomfortable to wear. Slick marketing, bad customer service, middling product design.

appreciate your comment and sorry to hear about your experience. For what it's worth I will say that I respond to every comment on this channel, and this could be the first negative complaint I've heard about Modern Dayfarer's customer support. Hopefully your situation was an anomaly. Also, the bag isn't marketed as a self-standing bag, and not all side pockets can hold all water bottles, so I don't think these are valid criticisms. This is still one of my favorite bags ever, but also, to each their own
