        I’m gobsmacked that @Graeme is down to a single backpack. I’d expect him to have a closet full with his knowledge of the game.

        My travel has ramped a lot and I am so loving my Rofmia.

        Think it, be it.

          @veloaudio and @goosehd I saw a Böle King Rucksack in Harrods nine years ago. It was lovely.

          @mclaincausey I saw a post on the Carryology Facebook group where someone bought six fairly similar different bags. I don't get that. I'd either buy one of the six, or throw the money at Böle, Racing Atelier, or Mathias Steinhauser, and get something really special.

            I have accumulated some bags I don’t use but don’t want to get rid of (like a couple Acronym messengers) but I’m with you on less is more generally speaking. Generally the ones I use (not counting hiking, skiing, or mountain biking) are my Rofmia Day Pack unless I need the capacity of my Defy VerBockel and a B&R carryon. I need a replacement checked bag at some point but I’ve found bags that make me happy.

                @veloaudio 3A-1 and 5A-TS models from long ago and an attachment or two for the latter. Also added a Bagjack laptop sleeve for the latter since it pre-dates models which included them.

                On balance I just like having the load evenly distributed on my shoulders.

                Think it, be it.

                    Kit bag would be the only one that interests me but I'm set on my travel duffle

                      The 26L is the most interesting of those to me in theory, but it doesn’t fill a justifiable gap.

                                Price is steep but I've always liked the design aesthetic. I also like "weekender" they did for Art & Science in Japan.

                                Would be a great bag for hauling around on the boat 🙂

                                    I’ve been traveling more lately and thinking that my occasional back and shoulder pain might be tied to schlepping heavy backpacks and duffles. So I looked for a made in Japan wheelie bag. Ended up with a Proteca from Ace bags. 1 trip in, so far so good.

                                      @68degreesorless Nice, I've been looking at one of these for a while. Just can't seem to pull the trigger on a rolling suitcase. Switch to a duffle many years back and haven't really looked back

                                        Tried to order one these back in early 2021 and he cancelled the order on me in July (health reasons, no hard feelings). Fell off my radar for a while but I recently managed to score one second hand. I had ordered a custom in 500D Cordera but this is VX42.

                                          Nigel Cabourn has teamed up with Trakke for a new version of the Swiss Army Rucksack. Halley Stevensons has recreated the original nettle and cotton blend fabric that the originals were made from. It looks lovely but will be reassuringly expensive.
