CK Tang.
I know the one at Vivo has more selection than the one at Orchard.

The Wallet Shop has Bellroy smaller items like wallets, passport holders etc but i do not recall seeing bags at their shops.

PS: will you kindly share your review of the Bellroy pack u are getting? i've always been curious about their packs but their price is too high for my liking given the materials used.

Woo ok. Will go down to Tangs and have a look. If it's available and I get it, will share my review here!

And yep, The Wallet Shop only has bellroy wallets, no bags. Checked with their sales people already.

Nowadays the wallet shop has far too many things....

I Won't be surprised to see a bellroy backpack but well hidden between all the XD Bobby backpacks

Just wondering what kind of prices are you willing to pay for what kind of material since you mentioned that it is too expensive.

Although not really my type, I really like their innovative storage ideas not found on most backpacks
Especially the routing of the charging cable to the shoulder strap, that is really convenient charging on the go.
The other would be the internal vertical storage pocket, which I previously suggested when backing another Kickstarter bag as it is useful for bottles/flask/umbrella but it was never implemented. I even mention about having a slim minimalistic holder along the shoulder straps for card/wireless earbuds but to no avail.
Eventually sold it off.

the way they improvise many of the ideas from other backpack KS campaign is really the main attraction.

so now it is really the day-to-day usage once i received it.

right now, my daily beater is Boundary Errant

It be nice if we can combine the best aspects of ones favorite bag design with such innovative design.
Looks like I can't have my cake & eat it too

actually if you really know what you want, you can consider contacting https://hitchhikers.sg/ and check with them on a customised bag.

they are local-based and they will provide some technical knowledge towards your bag (instead of some people who even forces you to give the exact dimensions).

me and my friends have done some custom pieces from them and the quality and price point is satisfactory

Hi guys, the Forge by Black Ember is now out on their main website. I’m looking to get one. However one bag doesn’t reach the US$395 to qualify for free international shipping.

Currently the price is US$295 (for the MAX black version) before 15% preorder discount which translates to US$251.

If there is anyone else who is interested in the bag and missed the kickstarter campaign, do let me know and we can combine our orders to get free shipping.

The GST split between us would roughly be SG$23-25 per person, which is way cheaper than shipping alone and avoiding GST.

I also made a pledge for it on kickstarter about a week or two ago. Really liked the pouch with the maglock but didnt get it in the end. Just got the clickpack x only since i would not get to use the pouch much.

Looking forward to receiving it, probably sometime in Jan 20 right?
