Aer has just launched their City Pack - a pack for city dwellers. Aer's design language is very uniform and they make bags designed just for each use case.

**********

Get the Aer City Pack if…

✅ Get this pack if you love Aer's anonymous aesthetic

✅ Get this pack if you want a super comfortable backpack

✅ Get this pack if you are a fan of bags with a slim profile

**********

DO NOT get the Aer City Pack if…

❌ If you love the aesthetics, but don't want so many organization pockets, check out the link below... 👇🏼

→ Aer Slim pack → Similar, with fewer pockets

❌ You are looking at this and are thinking: "I want to use this for all of my tech gear." We suggest using the pack below because that pack has better tech organization and waterproof zippers… 👇🏼

→ Aer Tech Pack 2 → more waterproof, better for tech

❌ Want to check out a different take on an urban backpack? Check out the link below… 👇🏼

1. LOVE THIS CHANNEL! 2. They took the feedback from their Instagram post and Intergraded it into this bag which shows they listen! 3. I literally have like 9 bags from AER, and I think they just sit at the top and it’s hard not to talk about them. It’s like Apple :). 4. Keep doing what your doing!

Ok, this video is 3 years old by now but I watched it a few times last week and got my bag this weekend. 1st impressions are great.

One thing which actually impressed me as well is the delivery, or better the packing. You don’t do unboxing, but their box game is strong, gives you the right feeling for a product that cost over 150 £/$/€

Love this channel and all you do. Thanks for your thorough and fun reviews. I used your link above to purchase the AER City Pack for use at weekend sports cards conventions since I am a sports card collector and dealer. I need something light, yet roomy enough for my essentials as I spend hours on my feet walking around trade shows. I won't be carrying my slabbed cards in here as I have a separate briefcase for that, but things like my phone, wallet, pad, water bottle, notebook, thin sweater, etc., this seems like it will be perfect for that purpose. Thanks again!

Thank you guys! I'm so excited for this bad boy. I've got the 9L Bellroy Sling and I love it, but I've become remote recently so I need to lug my laptop, charger, and work headset along with me. So I think this is gonna be just right for me. I cant wait to get mine in 4 days!

The little clip guy on 5.48 looks to me like to attach either small torch, hand sanitiser pouch or fancy keychain to give it some personality

[MyCovertNarcissism]

FIRST!! Woohoooo best wishes from Australia.

[tayochoi]

the random d rings on aer bags are great since i like clipping flashlights on the outside that are easy to access

[fawksake]

I've been pondering whether to order the 1680D Cordura or the XPac VX42. Ultimately, I chose the 1680D Cordura version. I already own the Alpaka Elements Pro XPac, and I'm not a fan of the noise it makes when crumpled. While XPac is lighter, I believe Cordura is more abrasion-resistant. I prefer the classic, understated look. XPac, on the other hand, is a bit too shiny.

Great review!! What do you think of this one vs. the Aer Day Pack 2?

[itzcain]

I had just got the aer 16 inch laptop sleeve and was wondering if this backpack or what aer backpack preferably a sling would fit that case plus other things ?

[Ichiblox]

I have a question, will this bag sag and can it fit 1 iPad 1 MacBook 16inch, iPad charger, MacBook charger, both cables, phone, 4 books, AirPods, headphones

[keisuke]

Thanks for the nice review! I was worried about buying it, so I'm glad I could watch your video. from Japan.

[DanielAlvarez-vpiv]

Should I go for the City Pack or the Day Pack 2? When should you go for X-Pack? How often is Aer making changes?

[luca_ravx]

What about the "X-Pac" version? do you recommend this version? do you know what's the main differences?
In the pictures seems having PU coating on all zippers (other than, obviously, the X-Pac materials)

btw, great review, as always.

[mannykhan]

A padded harness and sternum strap looks good on video but for a 16L backpack, its really unnecessary. I like Bellroy and Alpaka who have adequate padding to support the backback.

[luvru]

Which of the two would work better as a college/work backpack. This or the City Pack Pro version? I've read somewhere that 24L is the most common capacity for a College backpack so I'm leaning more into getting the Pro. Are there any differences between this and the Pro version other than capacity?

[hhoebeke]

Looks like a nice - a bit tighter ? - update to the flight pack…

[Mattzerfyer]

I wish there was a way to properly secure the backpack straps so you could hold this in briefcase mode, like with the Aer Slim Pack.

[soumitsarangi]

Love the review. I just bought the X-Pac version of the bag. Love the organization and the slim profile. Only thing i don't like is, Laptop compartment is not suspended.

[abqyardbird]

Awesome review! I need something new for a city job and need durability, professional look, lightweight, and security. I have researched several options and am sold..however.. my only apprehension is there is no false bottom in the laptop compartment. Do any users see this as an issue?
