I don't own one but I read that vx21 is a material that doesn't do well against abrasion but it's lightweight and extremely water resistant.

but need see context, those ang mohs will thrash their bags on their floor/pickup trucks, bring it to shooting range and drag around the floor..

for me, i office boy nia, i never once worried about the strength of material between 500D, 1000D, VX21 or Ripstop etc :o

just to manage expectations, the zips will continue to be stiffer den your usual bags because it is a water-resistant zip

Got used to it. Need to hold the bag against the direction of the pull. It definitely packs more than typical 16L. I have a mystery ranch streetfighter which is 16L, and the MR packs less than Granville zip.

Was at clarkquay yesterday and saw a cacuasian carrying a nomin. Quite gians - the nomin looks nicer with the scuffs and white scratches.

Anyone has experience with Able Carry backpacks?

I bought one last year after seeing it in person and falling in love with its looks. I still think it's one of the best looking bags. I used it as an EDC for about two months before selling it. I tried very hard to like it, again because of its looks, but I just couldn't in the end. One reason is it's not as easy to load because of its fixed structure. Like, there's quite a bit of space at the base but sometimes it's not that easy to get big stuff in there. Also, the interior is not rectangular so it's quite inefficient. Then there were little gripes like the sternum strap not staying inside the little holes for them and the sunglasses compartment being a little too snug for my liking. Ultimately, I realised that it just wasn't a fun bag to use. Some bags you can't wait to carry and feel good using it, but this wasn't one of them.

Look like a duffle bag with backpack straps.

Does anyone have both the cpl24 and errant backpack? Wondering if the errant does indeed fit lesser stuff despite the same capacity
