Current racksack:
Just the right amount of pockets, no faffage, just a good solid rucksack. Fits my climbing stuff in perfectly.
Totes
Got loads. My comic shop sells them for £3 and usually gives me one free when I buy a fuck load of books. Favourite one is either my Alpaca one or one from Budapest.
Overnight bag
Not a fan of my overnight bag, it’s well awkward.
Messenger bag/satchel
Got a great crumpler messenger bag that’s waterproof.
Someone once complimented my taste in bags because of my messenger bag. Might be the only time I’ve ever been complimented for a sartorial choice in my life…
Have a small Gola holdall that I use as an overnight/weekend away bag. Found it at my nans when we were clearing out her house after she died. Similar to this.
I’ve not found a backpack without of of those cage things on the back which does this. And I don’t really like them so just suffer with back sweat
If anyone ever asks me what backpack to buy, I would say one of Alpkit’s Gourdons depending on size. Not the most breathable (I wear it to work every day on the bike so bound to sweat) but everything else about it is great. Totally waterproof, pretty cheap, seems indestructible. I have to 20 litre version and it’s my favourite bag.
Tote bags: my favourites are the ones I got at a music festival in Poland but I can’t find pictures of them online.
Got lots of bags! My faves are my North Face Borealis, Tatami daysack, Under armour gym bag, Some nomark duffel that I got from an army surplus store. My favourite tote which I take to the supermarket is this:
