FULL DISCLOSURE:

This video is not sponsored nor did I receive any money. While I sometimes get bags for free, I have to pay custom fees, shipping fees and all my videos have lots of production costs (e.g. software and musicrights). Therefore I invest my own money into all of these videos and I have no intention to be biased towards a product or company. Every review and quicklook is written by me and no company can pay for preferential scheduling or what is said in the video. Furthermore, the company sees the video the same time as all viewers here on youtube. All opinions in this video are my own unless stated otherwise.

HOW I REVIEW:

As you might know from my „How I make a buying decision“ video: Rather than just looking at the pros, I like to evaluate the cons or flaws of an item and then evaluate if I can live with them. That is why in my video reviews I concentrate more on the cons of an item rather than going over all the features. Therefore everything shown is just a fraction of all the points that go into the verdict and score of an item.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A QUICKLOOK AND A REVIEW:

A Quicklook usually covers pre-production units or items that I only used for a short period of time. While Reviews cover final items that I have reviewed intensively.

LINKS:

For all my videos I decided not to include links for the products. Everyone is living in different countries and therefore has to deal with different shipping and customs fees. That is why I would advice everyone just to Google the product within their country to find the best deals. For instance: I live in Germany, It wouldn’t make sense to give you a German link while you might be living in USA or Asia. I hope that is understandable.

Hey Bo,
kannst du dir mal den Rucksack von OneMate angucken? Deutsche Marke und meiner meinung nach ziemlich interessant. :)

[bikecommuter]

Interesting but they need to fix some details on your sample, maybe they will fix it later on.
I like the idea of using recycled materials.
Funny I watch reviews of things I will probably never buy, still interesting I gave you a 👍,

$400!! For a 100% recycled materials? Wooow... They're no different than the "organic" peddlers in supermarkets. Thanks for an awesome review Bo. It's a nice looking bag but for that price tag? I think a lot of people will pass.

Well for me this bag looks like a MODERN DAYFAREN copy

That'd look good to wear with a nice leather jacket
