One of the internet’s most beloved backpacks due to its accessibility, organization, build quality and capacity. Dad-bag looks tho.

The “Synapse” available in 19L and 25L, not clamshell opening, older straps. (Watch the “>19L is real minimal and light and great for day hikes.

Incredible materials, not just on the outside. The liner feels insane and different in a very good way. Lots of organization — kit this thing out however you want, hidden pockets, visible pockets, very well thought through. An incredible silhouette — I just love the shape of this bag. Oh, also, RAD back panel.
