What backpacks are you guys using?

RojoLoco

I've had one of these for about 4 years, still going strong.

I say wait until MangoCon and just see what everybody is carrying.

On a more serious note, company bought some bags and branded them. Its a Leeds Elleven, similar to one of these:

I use a Bag of Holding (the original) from ThinkGeek. It’s not a backpack though.

I have a swissgear that I bought at SAMS - but it isn't on Amazon.

Of course I have a Star Wars Rogue One laptop backpack.

I use an Ogio for my work backpack and a High Sierra for when I travel.

I have been using this one for 11 years. I bought another one 2 years ago when it was on sale to replace it when it failed. It just hasn't failed yet.

I like my Amazon Basics bag. Got it at a charity auction, so I don't know how much they normally go for. Does a good job of carrying everything I need for an overnight stay as well as the laptop and gadgets.

I use a Porter (from Japan) messenger bag for day to day.

I have a tech bag of some kind branded by CCB Technology for my tech gear bag.

I ended up grabbing this

My techs (and myself) run these : Thule Accent 28L
Perfect size for carry-on beneath the seat and hold enough equipment for most general jobs.
Side entry for the laptop makes stowing/retrieving a laptop quick.

EDIT: Should also mention that it has both top and side carry handle for whatever "floats your boat" and that we deal with a lot of Law Firms and other "prissy" environments and it's one of the few knapsacks that don't look "frumpy" and aren't made of leather

I have a Targus, the one from Spiceworld 2017 and 2018 (herchant and craft) and a Land's End one too. They have been pretty good so far.

Well I went to Walmart for something and decided to stop by electronics. They had this on sale for $70 so I grabbed it and canceled Amazon order.

@IRJ If it is of the same quality as the one I have been using for 11+ years, you won't be disappointed.

@jmoore my Ramstein messenger bag has served me well

jmoore
