Backpack Recommendations

What’s the name of the backpack btw? Been looking for something like this

Maybe use a backpacker instead?

The $10 Amazon Basics backpack. Laptop sleeve, big hole that has straps for my back for everything else. Small pocket in front with zipper. So far lasted 4 years in the rain and weather with its thin cordura. Why complicate things?

I use a backpack on an almost daily basis. I currently use the Aer duffel pack. I won't try to sell you on it except to say that I am happy with the bag. Here is the product page.https://www.aersf.com/duffel-pack-00001

I guess you would like to see this thread: "Ask HN: Do you carry a backpack? Which one?" - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13369197

Now I want one of these bags as my daypack.

Um... better than backpacks, I'd say.

I have switched to a basic Fjallraven backpack. Its very durable, no gimmicks, and fits way more than it looks like.

I like backpacks, don't have to worry about sizing, and they actually get used.

I bike 4 miles everyday to and from work, often with a laptop and always with a lunch. I've replaced my backpack with a timbuk2 bag 6 years ago and haven't looked back. I bike in pouring rain and snow and it still looks great. The cross strap evens out the load on my shoulder, works better than backpacks that gave me shoulder pain. Lots of great pockets for easy access. I doubt I'll need to replace mine but if I lost it I'd replace in a heartbeat.
