As others have said, the outside-real-world-comfort section is fantastic. Should be a great add for every video imo

[normang]

I have the 26l venture ready and it is already a great travel pack

Damn this is the perfect reiteration, all the upgrades I would love to have.

[iantaylor]

I ordered the venture travel pack and really wanted to love it since I like the design and my family uses a lot of bellroy products. But I ended up returning it.

It just was not comfortable for me with the heavy gear I had. Also, I needed some more space. I ended up getting the travel pack 3 small X-pac through your alternate suggestion links on the venture-ready pack video.

It has been fantastic! It's more comfortable and feels more than just two liters bigger than this bag. I'm not sure how that works, honestly. Anyway, thanks for the reviews!

[Tubbytubsterify]

You often state that you like the key leash to be easily accessible and long enough to use so I think they put it in the perfect spot based on a lot of your videos. Looks like a great bag as usual. You did a fantastic job.👏👏👏👏

Thanks for all the reviews. I have an upcoming trip and I just like trying new gear. So I thought I’d get a new bag. But honestly I haven’t watched a review of a single bag where I see an advantage over my Addax 25 by vanquest. Perfect size as a personal item on flight and has such a good layout for a lot of different uses. I’m very surprised you haven’t reviewed it. You should take a look.

[AronConsuelo]

Wow, this is a thoughtfully designed backpack. That hidden tote bag is kinda cool too!

[BiggDeli]

The design, materials, and size of this bag is perfect. But that price! Wish it were $75 cheaper.

[czerie]

I love the hidden tote feature, it's so cool to have it on this bag. How I wish to have this kind of bag soon!

[irfanyang]

Safe to say, you've become my go-to bag channel. Keep up the ace work NNation!

[shirfong]

Finally this video is out! I am thinking of buying this one or the Peak Design 30L. May I check which is better for your personal opinion please?

[jaysax]

Love that stow-able tote system! Slick way to carry more stuff without it being counted as a second bag by airlines when it’s attached!

Also, was calling the Aer TP3 33L a typo, or did you guys double check the capacity. It’s always felt a bit tight for 35L to me too.

[TakeTheInitiative]

Hidden tote seems perfect for Japan travel when regularly popping into Konbini, ¥100 stores and Don Quijote!

[misstubbie]

Hey! Nice watch! 😎 when this bag was released, so was a new version of the regular Venture Ready. That led to nice discounts on the Ready first version. Long story short… I made myself with a Venture Ready version 1 for a very affordable price. Very similar construction as the Travel. The new details like the internal colors, the weather resistant fabric AND especially the that tote bag are genius

[jaykeltner]

Thanks for the review! Did I miss the additional information that you were going to discuss more how bottles may cut into the inside packing dimensions?

[supersnail]

I'd love to see an EDC orientated version of basically this backpack - I love the design and features, but a separate laptop zipper is a must for me for an everyday bag

[bani_niba]

I like the backpack itself - I think the organization of the pockets is quite smart. But the add-on tote is a total miss for me 1) I would worry that attachment method isn't sufficient and the tote would fall off if I was running around with the pack 2) I would want tougher materials for the tote if it's meant to go through all the same situations as the backpack 3) I would rather have some type of built-in expansion of the pack instead of an add-on. Also, the price seems high compare to its competitors. BTW, the Aer Travel Pack is 35L in size, not 33L.

[j.b.]

This is probably the most I’ve been tempted by a Bellroy backpack. (I like Bellroy’s slings, wallets, pouches, etc, just never been into their backpacks.) If I didn’t already have the CTB26 (which I adore), I’d be considering!

[forkfaze]

For travel i would use that key leash for my multitool or nitecore flashlight on a magnetic release clip. I literally got back from a 2 week trip to Portugal and using the able cary 13's key leash I did the same thing.

[terry]

buying it over aer! i love the design. simple and clean

[johncarlogamboa]

I got mine a month ago and I haven't had the chance to test it yet. But first impressions, I liked it.
