Luggage Bags and Packs
-
So who's owned a Vasco bag? What'd you think of it? I've zeroed in on the large black postman bag, seems to be all I want. Just would love to hear some thoughts on the quality — it's Japanese so I'm expecting top notch, but of course some verification would be good

Thanks for the tips on superlight packs @Manticore and @Graeme . I’ll be hunting down the lightest HMG I can find an report back.

I've enjoyed my synapse 19 from Tom Bihn…I use it as my day to day pack for work and has been really great on my motorcycle. Decent pockets accessible from the side for grabbing my wallet and phone out quick, and a water bottle pocket in the front, center I've used primarily for coffee

Second vote for any bag from tom bihn. I have 2 and another on order plus lots of accessory organizers. Great stuff.

The Collection is growing, slow but steady. The Backpack started it all 7-8 Years ago, then i bought the RG 3-4 Years Ago and now the Rack-Pack 89 because i needed a Bag that can carry Work and Leisure Clothes and Shoes for at least a Week. No Wheels or Frame because its 95% of the time going to be transported in the Trunk of my car.

Nice one. I'd be embarrassed to post my collection
There is no shame in buying quallity german made products. I will get some more in the future when travel/my work picks up again. I´m eying the "Big Zip" for longer (work) trips in the winter when I need even more gear, I cant stand the traveling with two Bags and three Totes situation anymore
I hate looking like i got kicked out of my house when checking into an Hotel

Has anybody owned a goruck GR1 and would be happy to share their thoughts? I’m considering one, I bought a blue de chauffe woody less than a year ago thinking it would be the one, but and am finding it to be a bit pants, want the next one to be right!

Hi Iron Baggers
I'm looking for recommendations on a good quality backpack or messenger for motorcycle riding.
I am a retro old geezer and prefer leather.
Thanks in advance

Don't know if this is what you want but I like my Vasco Postman Bag a lot.

Thanks @endo yeah they are the sort of think I'm looking at. I can't work out what their lead time is from the website primarily in Japanese

I like this Vasco, but sold out at one UK retailer I looked at
This Horsehide McCoys is pretty sick too, pretty sick price as well … thankfully sold out

I like the Kasperi backpacks. But they look like they ride quite high, which might be a problem with a motorcycle helmet. I don't know how far they can be rolled down.
Frank Clegg do some nice leather backpacks. I'd check out the one of a kind range, as they currently have a 25% discount on them.
Racing Atelier are a more modern take. It's best to check them out on Instagram as the website only shows one of the three or four styles of rucksack that they do.
Mathias Steinhauser posted an awesome deerskin rucksack to his Instagram feed. I don't know anything about it, but I want it.
The Vasco bags look lovely, Herz do a range of leather bags, and Bleu de Chauffe are another option.

If they're all too cheap, then there's the Bole Tannery Prince Rucksack. This is really lovely, but costs €5,000…

I'm happy with the one I have. It's been 7/8 years now and I use it mostly as a travel pack. It gets the job done and has proven to be pretty bombproof

@graeme that one still haunts me!
