  • Quick comparison of the Aer Travel Pack 3 and the Alpaka Elements Travel Backpack which are two of the most popular edc / minimal travel bags I have featured over the past few months. Both have a versatile size, great organizational layouts and excellent build qualities, but have a few similarities and differences which might make it difficult to decide which one might be best for you.
    Which bag do you prefer? Any other comparisons you would want to see?

    You make great reviews. Very detailed. I love how you show the way these bags look on you while you walk, so I kinda get a feeling of how it looks on me. Keep up the good work!

    Great comparison, Danny! I always come to your videos when interested in a bag. Although the Alpaka pack seems a bit generous with it’s advertised capacity, the slightly smaller size actually works for my purposes better where I’m thinking of using it as a larger EDC for work and also as a personal item under the seat. Currently using the Osprey Nebula, so size might actually be pretty comparable. Thanks again for another great review!

      Thank you for watching and for the support! That’s a good point on the similarity with something like the nebula and I do appreciate the versatility of the size on the Alpaka

    The Aer x-pac version has all aquaguard zippers as well. The long/tall pocket in the main compartment can act as a built-in packing cube.

    Just in time for me. The exact two I was trying to decide between. Although I love the Alpaka products I own. Aer x-pac version is the winner for me. I just pulled the trigger.
    Thanks for your detailed review!

    would you recommend the AER Travel Pack 3 Small or the knackpack 2 Medium?

    • @dannypacks
      @dannypacks  2 місяці тому

      Thank you for watching! Overall I prefer the comfort, aesthetic and laptop protection of the aer, I would go with knack primarily if looking for something expandable that could maybe work a little better for daily and longer travel

    Do they fit under the seat? I need one backpack that counts as personal item.

    I have Aer travel pack 3 x-pac.
    this is one of my best backpack ever but I hate magnetic buckle. it's loose so easily. just put the backpack on the ground it will release. so annoying.

    The ALPAKA bag comes with the waist strap. It’s not sold separately.

    So alpaka is just lying each time they mention a volume.
    In the previous video you had to take the city pack instead of the pro to compare.
    Kinda a pain from alpaka.
    I mean you can be off a bit but those measurements can't be off by a bit.

    AER is just a more polished, professional-looking backpack. Prefer the magnetic compression locks and quick-release buckles on AER, plus the thicker top handle. Simply a more thought-out Travel (larger capacity) backpack. Not a big fan of those "half-zip" style openings like Evergoods Civic, preferring the more full open of AER. The AER Travel pack is simply the "Varsity" backpack while Alpaka is the junior league.

      I have been using the Aer Travel Pack 3 Small for about a year, but a friend let me borrow an Evergoods CTP26 which I actually prefer. However, I own 6 or 7 Aer products and believe that they are best looking bags on the market.
