Currently I favor the 40l Patagonia Black Hole Duffel. The straps are interchangeable with the checked size of the same duffel, and the bags stow smaller than the other options in those capacities. I don’t use built-in compartments. Fixed compartments seldom denominate the volume the way I need; they just result in an inefficient pack. I have found that packing cubes, poly bags, etc, result in better compartmentalization and a better experience. That might not look as good, but it works better.

@alx9r I always wanted to test that Patagonia black hole duffel and compare it with my North face duffel. Packing cubes is definitely a good choice to pack

I like the Peak Design original travel backpack. Has served me well since 2019. It’s got a good balance between organisation and a big open part, and I enjoy the side access to that. If I need to haul more I go with the North Face duffel 50L. Neither of these had excellent shoulder straps, but I’m not hiking with them. I appreciate the way the straps fold away on the PD, and there’s a hip belt for longer carries but you forget it’s there in the mean time. For a shorter trip I sometimes use the Mystery Ranch 2 Day Assault pack - it’s a bit “tacticool” but I really like how it’s configured and the access is awesome. And you really can hike with the MR 2DAP, it’s very comfortable.

Just got my GR2 34L in the star shrapnel pattern the other week, been using it all week with an alpaka tech max case for organization inside. my new paka is that deep purple, with orange interior, replaced zipper pulls with green ones, and strap with a green one, friend did some embroid work on that says NERV, EVANGELION, etc. My v4 wont be back for a few weeks, but had all the red converted to green, black stuff rekoted in a vibrant deep purple, and alot of stuff in copper orange to have that whole eva colorway haha. Having a custom made motorcycle harness chest rig made to hold my phone, edc stuff easy to access like flashlight, medical, etc. Finally got something to go over my armor for when I ride, and my leathers, which makes me go up a size in some clothing to cover armor, and chest rig. Now about to build a metric tool kit for my hijet, and my R1 to share as I use it to tow stuff to the track. Importing in a new hilux champ thats LHD from philippines to swap cab and bed onto a u.s. tacoma truck to replace my tired hijet haha

I started buying GR bags in their ripstop to address some of the issues you brought up. They are lighter, clean up better, break-in easier, and IMO are better looking and don’t appear quite as big.

if you gt the 26l this will solve your length issue. You should be able to fit everything in that sized bag. I got mine recently and thought it was too big until i started loading it with stuff and it fits like glove. Couldn't be more happier

I’m still missing an external water bottle and more important a sternum strap because when the 34L is fully loaded, it’s an heavy bag. The back side could also have more padding to improve the comfort during long carry period…..

Been using the GR1 slick for years after I saw your original video. Went with the 21 but kinda wish I'd gone with the bigger (27L?). Saw the GR2 and really considered it but it feels like a bit too much for most days. One question I have for 1 bag travelers is what do you do when you get to your destination? I mean, I'd want my GR1 for day trips traveling but putting it inside a GR2 feels strange.

The "German stare" doesn't help with confidence about vlogging in public at all 😅 Oh and being a huge guy (1.95m/110kg) certainly helps with perceived heft of a bag. I've taken the Peak Design 45L Travel Backpack (in its 40L form, not expanded to 45L) as my personal item on flights and nobody batted an eye. I do always buy extra legroom seats, though, so it doesn't have to fit under the seat.

True. Totally forgot about that. It's definitely not as abrasive like the old backpanel. It's good and isn't as stressful to your garments as the old material. But I would need to test it even more to actually see how it reacts to fabric like Merino in the long-run
