Oh, you think sneaker heads are an interesting bunch, wait till you see all that goes along with the EDC culture. Some names to look up, The James Brand, Giant Mouse, Garage Built Gear, Notorious EDC, Waterfield Bags, Tom Bihn, Code of Bell, and Goruck to just name a few. Enjoy and welcome for a wild ride.

Haha, thank you! Funny enough, I have some Waterfield bags from 10-15 years ago. Crazy. I've always been familiar with the local Bay Area brands like DSPTCH, Mission Workshop and Triple Aught Design, but I'm definitely getting exposure to A LOT of other awesome brands, and I'm in pretty deep. A lot of people seem to be big on Goruck and Evergoods, but it's not my personal cup of tea yet. I'm actually working to have a completely custom pack built by Arch Ind out of Italy. As you said, a wild ride indeed! Thanks for the comment and support! Much appreciated!🍻🤙

Looking back 7 months at this, is the Dsptch daypack still your pack to beat, or have you found something all around better for your needs?

@MattViral that is a fantastic question, thanks for asking! The DSPTCH remains the most battle tested by me, and I'm not sure with a 15 month old daughter that I'll be able to battle test anything else in a similar manner anytime soon. From a functionality and build quality perspective, I know and trust everything about the DSPTCH pack. It's objectively great. From a personal, 'I just like what this pack is doing, just because', I'd say Azo Equipment in general is at the top of the list. Azo build quality is unsurpassed and I just love all of the finishing touches that make each pack they make unique and special. If I did a month long international excursion tomorrow and needed a DSPTCH Daypack sized pack for EDC, I'd probably grab the Azo Fireproof pack I just got over the DSPTCH, but that's more just wanting to try something new and actually still trusting it than any indictment against the DSPTCH's suitability for purpose. Hope that long winded answer makes at least some sense. Always great to hear from you! Appreciate the comment and support as usual!🤙

@@FlawlessActivity Right there with you on Azo. I’m finding the Rabel is my pack to beat lately. There’s just something so right about the AZO aesthetic. They do a great job toeing the line between casual and tactical. Super functional but minimalist in appearance and not overtly tactical. Subtle and effective, not at all intimidating, like a small Swiss Army knife.

400 bucks for a pack that the side pockets don't even expand that's a huge deal breaker for me

I have a Coyote/Multicam. It is a slightly thinner X-pac fabric, (X22 and VX21 vs. X42) on the sides and back. I really like it. The colorways on that are an imitation of the initial Unicorn 1.0 which is still sought after. Worked for a number of years as a Wilderness Field Instructor, and my rig for the Field consisted of a Mystery Ranch 80L Terraframe and a Mystery Ranch scree 32 for my safety gear (worn front), both of which survived three years of hiking 8 days a week (then six days off) all year round in challenging conditions (Pisgah NF, North Carolina). Got a lot of abuse, and show almost no wear, so I am not worried about the lighter fabric. I no longer work in the field, I am working as a full time teacher, so this pack is going to be a very different carry from my Field Rigs. I actually appreciate the smaller size as I tend to fill up any pack I carry! This one is doing a great job so far of holding my laptop and associated tech chords, a basic FAK, sewing kit, my journal, pens, and daybook, an e-reader + book to read, and a rain jacket and my lunch for going out and about. Very well designed and looks really cool. Hope you enjoy yours and it gets out there, doesn't just sit on a shelf! TBS

Awesome insights and history! Thank you for sharing! Yes, I'm methodically getting this pack configured to do all of the things I need it to, so it will definitely be putting in work!🍻

cool this ain't no wall hanger pack! A quick hack is a bit of silicon lube on the zippers really helps. The waterproof zippers are gonna be stiff. Zpacks and Six Moon Designs sell a silicone lube on a brush bottle thingy which really helps those zips get zippy! @@FlawlessActivity

How much can the Unicorn 2.0 hold in terms of clothing? Every KZitemr just (un)packs camera gear. No one shows the amount of clothing the back can hold.

It's small. The smallest advertised 22L I've ever worked with. I have 20L packs that hold way more. I can't speak for others, but I never put clothing in my EDC packs. They just take up too much space relative to available volume. The only exception where I did show some clothes was the Filip Raboch Traveler, and that's because it's a travel pack that I actually used for travel and had to pack clothes. But I compressed them in packing cubes to save space.
