      The yikes threw me off as well because I’m trying to decide if I want to to pay the $120 for this wallet and when I saw yikes I thought maybe you had a take on the wallet that no other UA-camr has discussed. So I did think the title is misleading especially since you gave it a glowing review

    Was hoping you can help me decide on a bag. Love your videos and I’ve been binging and still can’t decide. I love my aer duffel pack 2 but the capacity is just too small for my needs and I’ve outgrown it. Do I gain a lot of capacity in something like the able carry max vs it? Or even the King Kong 26? Have my eyes a little more set on the able carry.

    • @Nomads.Nation
      @Nomads.Nation  3 роки тому +1

      The king king won’t be much bigger but at 30 litres the able carry max will give you a lot more packing space (and it’s a bag that I adore)
