Luggage Bags and Packs
-
It used to be $80 flat rate to uk. The last item I bought from them though the shipping was about $46 when I purchased something from their sale

Any know anything about Topo designs? They have the Mountain briefcase at a local shop and seems nice.

Decent quality. Made in USA. I like some of their designs and colorways. I owed a daypack about 3yrs ago but sold it. If one of the bags meets your specific use I'd get it. The bags with leather are really nice. They aren't as overbuilt as Goruck so just keep that in mind.

I don't know about hiking but walking 10-15 miles around the city it's very comfortable. Ask Jeff, he hikes with a GR1 and loves it.

Also recommend Tad Gear and Mystery Ranch (although the Mystery Ranch customer service sucks) if you're outside the usa

Yeah it really depends on what you want for a bag. Will you strictly only use it for hiking or will it slowly be an all around bag? The Tad Gear Fast pack and almost any of the Mystery Ranch bags will fulfill your hiking needs but for traveling they might end of being too bulky. The Goruck GR1 is a happy medium.

+1 for the Goruck GR1, I've used mine daily now for almost 18 months and it is comfortable, manageable and tough as nails. If I gave it a clean it would pass as brand new I reckon. Plus they are great for travelling, mine has done Tokyo, Jakarta, London and it will be coming to Barcelona with me next month, the full length opening main compartment is super useful when you're looking for something in the bottom of your bag on a flight.

This seems pretty helpful

Love this damn thing (Acronym 5A-TS). Just added a MOLLE Acronym "Kompression Pocket," which is ideal for sunglasses but large enough to hold a water bottle. In fact it, like the bag itself, is design to expand hugely to accommodate all kinds of stuff. Anything that I need to get to quickly goes into that. The Maxpedition bag (the one I put a velcro USA flag on) carries office supplies and electronic gadgets, including thumb drives, cords, a flashlight and CR123A batteries for it… I also have a third MOLLE bag which carries my bike stuff in it like tools, spare tube, CO2/cracker, Leatherman Wave, etc. This one uses buttoned straps to attach to the MOLLE so that I can detach it quickly and stick it in the large exterior pocket of my other, smaller Acronym bag (3A-1). There are hidden zippered pockets on each side of the bag that are good for small items like phones or keys, and then there is a detachable interior pocket that velcros in between the removable waterproof lining and the waterproof shell. The final accessory i added also velcros in between the shell and lining, right inside the back pad, and that's a padded laptop sleeve (the red thing in the picture).
