The reviews keep getting better. I really appreciate the time and effort put into shows the good and the not so good about each of these carry products. It is great to be able to see the products in such detail before making a purchase.
Thanks for your feedback! We're glad to hear that you find our reviews helpful and informative. Our goal is always to provide detailed feedback about the carry products we review. We appreciate your support and look forward to continuing to help you find the perfect gear for your needs! - Kez
24 cans of beer? Found the perfect tailgating backpack. Honestly though, I love the look of this bag. $129 is a great price, wish it had a luggage pass through but that's just being nitpicky
The luggage pass-through will defintely make travelling a breeze, right?
Great review, I purchased this pack, the top pocket is way way too small to the point it's almost useless in my opinion. Everything else about the pack is great. I do love the outer fabric.
Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear that you're enjoying the Bellroy Via backpack overall and that you appreciate its outer fabric. It's unfortunate that the top pocket doesn't meet your expectations due to its small size. While backpack designs can vary and not every feature may be perfect for everyone, it's still valuable to share your experience and opinion. If you find the top pocket too small to be practical, you could consider utilizing other compartments or pockets within the backpack to accommodate your needs. Alternatively, you might explore other backpack models or brands that offer larger or more functional top pockets, depending on your specific requirements.
Remember, everyone has different preferences and use cases, so it's essential to find a backpack that suits your needs and preferences the best. Nonetheless, we're glad to hear that you're satisfied with the other aspects of the Bellroy Via backpack. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask:)
Reminds me of my CHZ22 from Evergoods...the Bellroy looks nice but the quick access pocket is pretty small like you stated. If someone has the extra funds, I would definitely choose the EG bag over this one but that's just my opinion.
Affordable no I thought it would be less around $90. Bellroy is still expensive I have never been disappointed in their products.
Bellroy is a luxury “affordable” edc brand
@@martinmaison6421 yes n I'm still planning to get one of their new products to add to my collection I'm def a fan girl
Expensive is subjective. Comes down to value in the end I guess, if the product is good quality and lasts longer than 3x $30 backpacks, then, what is the more expensive backpack? The $90 one or the $30 one? If the $90 one provides a better experience than the 3 $30 ones, then what was the better choice?
@@RushfasterTV I love bellroy n I'll continue to purchase expensive or not I'm getting both the sling n this bag just wish it was olive like the aer 😒
Aer pro backpack is a good backpack that's similar to this. I'm trying to decide which one to go with.
I bought tech pack 2 and feel sooooo heavy, even nothing in the bag 😂 also it said it only have 17L capticy but it looks great
@@sunnyleung4866 Yupp, Aer is sturdy and a quality build. But my Tech Folio feels as heavy as my HMG 3400 backpack.
Yeah echoing the comments here- got the travel pack 3 Small and it is just insanely heavy, feels like overkill every time i use it for carrying stuff around.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and suggesting the Aer Pro backpack as an alternative option. The Aer Pro backpack does seem to have some similarities to the Bellroy Via backpack, such as a sleek design and functional features. Ultimately, the decision between the two will depend on your personal preferences and needs. I recommend taking a closer look at the features and specifications of both backpacks to see which one better suits your requirements. Thank you for your comment! - Kez
I love Bellroy products. But Im from Mexico and the shipping fees plus import fees kill me! 😢 I have ended up paying from 20 to 40 % extra 😞
Sorry to hear that.
Qué bueno que vi esto! Estoy a punto de pedir, entonces me conviene pedirlo a Laredo e ir por él.
@ si tienes esa posibilidad es mejor que te lo reciban en Laredo. Claro, si tenias pensado ir de todas formas. No te vaya a salir mas caro el viaje que los impuestos jajaja. Yo estaba bien emocionada y cuando llegó el de FedEx le tuve que pagar como 600 pesos para que, el dejara el paquete 😢
@@misstubbie1313 gracias por responder. De casualidad has visto la Transit Backpack? Estoy entre esa y está Vía.
Si tienes Amazon Prime no te cobran el envío de algunos productos (de otros sí) eso te aliviana algo el costo final
that intro is so on point about minimalism and simplicity
Oh, thank you, Jess! 🥰
I just started to find video about this backpack and boom here it is omg should I buy this 😂 BTW do you guys have a comparison with the black and the slate colorway? I can't decide which color also. Slate is more like dark grey or light grey in real life?
The slate colour is a darker shade of grey with earthy undertones. If you're having trouble deciding between the two colours, we suggest checking out some customer photos or reviews to see how they look. Thanks for watching! Cheers
You're not kidding about the small size of the front stash pocket. Absolutely tiny! I can't fit my glasses case, and iPhone (not max) barely fits. Shockingly small.
Thank you for sharing your feedback on the front stash pocket of the backpack. It's helpful to hear about real-life experiences with the product. While some users may appreciate a small front pocket for keeping essential items easily accessible, it's understandable that it may not meet everyone's needs. I recommend utilising the main compartment of the backpack or other pockets if you need to carry larger items. Thank you again for your comment! - Kez
Think you forgot to mention stash pocket in front
Looks like competitor to evergoods half zip
Hi there! Thank you for your comment. The front stash pocket of the backpack is small. As for the Evergoods Half Zip, it does seem to share some similarities with the backpack. However, each backpack has its own unique features and design, so it's important to consider your own needs and preferences when choosing a backpack. Thanks again for your feedback! - Kez
The Macpac Tira 22L is quite similar and much cheaper, plus Aussie/NZ grown!
Thanks for your recommendation! It's always nice to show support for local businesses. Hopefully, we can create a review of the Macpac Tira 22L soon. Cheers!
Thanks for a great review. How rigid is the back? Is it possible to squeeze it a bit? I am looking for a personal item-sized back for airlines such as WizzAir and RyanAir.
Thank you! G;ad you liked it:) The Bellroy Via Backpack is not a rigid backpack, meaning it has some flexibility and can be squeezed a bit to fit in tight spaces. However, it is not a compressible backpack that can be folded down completely flat.
The backpack measures 19.7 x 12.6 x 6.7 inches, which is slightly larger than the maximum size allowance for personal items on airlines such as WizzAir and RyanAir. Typically, personal items on these airlines must measure no more than 40 x 30 x 20 cm (15.7 x 11.8 x 7.9 inches) including handles, wheels, and any external pockets.
It's important to check with your airline's specific size requirements for personal items before purchasing a backpack to ensure it meets their guidelines. If you need a backpack that is specifically designed to meet airline requirements, you may want to consider a travel backpack that is marketed as a personal item or carry-on bag.
What about Thule backpacks? Like the accent 20l, enroute 14l, lithos 16l or lithos 20l?
Both Bellroy and Thule are popular brands that offer high-quality backpacks with different features and designs. The choice between these brands ultimately depends on your personal preferences, needs, and budget.
In terms of the Bellroy Via Backpack, it is a versatile and stylish option that is designed for everyday use. It has a capacity of 18 liters, which is suitable for carrying a laptop, a tablet, and other essentials. The backpack is made of durable materials and features a weather-resistant design to protect your belongings from the elements. Additionally, it has multiple compartments and pockets, including a hidden front pocket and a quick-access top pocket, which make it easy to organize and access your items. As for Thule backpacks, they offer a range of models with different capacities, designs, and features to meet different needs. For example, the Thule Accent 20L is a spacious backpack that can hold a laptop up to 15 inches, while the Thule Enroute 14L is a compact option that is suitable for shorter commutes. The Thule Lithos 16L and 20L backpacks are both designed for everyday use and have a minimalist style with a variety of compartments for organizing your items.
When comparing Bellroy's Via Backpack to Thule backpacks, it's important to consider your specific needs and preferences. Some factors to consider include the capacity, features, and overall design of each backpack. Additionally, you may want to read reviews and compare prices to determine which option offers the best value for your money:)
@@RushfasterTV thanks!! I would love a review for the lithos because there are none online :)
Your reviews are really good. Any chance of reviewing Australian brands like Blackwolf or Caribee?
Thank you for your kind words about our reviews! I appreciate your suggestion of reviewing Australian brands such as Blackwolf and Caribee. We will keep that in mind for future content and recommendations. Thank you for your support and happy adventuring! - Kez
Highlight of the video has to be the Canadian tuxedo
To be fair, a Canadian Tuxedo should be the highlight of any video
I read a comment on another video about being convinced to buy the bellrpy after seeing someone fit 4 6 pack into the bag and turns out that was you🤣🤣🤣
Haha, guilty as charged! That's me. Who knew a bag could handle both style and functionality so well? 😄🍻
I’d say sub $75 is affordable like after tax $75 shipping none the less nice review nice $150 backpack
Hi, glad you liked the video. Thanks for stopping by. Take care!
can u recommend a edc backpack with a hidden pocket on the back panel? thanks!
For sure! Check the Wandrd Prvke line
Thank you!
You're welcome, Agnieszka! Thanks for watching. Cheers!
Bellroy’s is the best
Thanks for sharing your opinion! Bellroy is certainly a popular brand known for its high-quality carry products. We're glad to hear that you think they're the best. We appreciate your support and hope you continue to enjoy using their products! - Kez
@@RushfasterTV they are the best I have 2 classic backpacks I have brought in 2018. Still looks brand new till today😊
Fulfilling your wishes 😂😂
Just doing the sum ... 45x22x11cm = just short of 11L. Are those dimensions correct? Is this really a 20L backpack?
Thanks for asking about the capacity of the Bellroy Via backpack. While the dimensions you mentioned suggest a smaller volume than advertised, the backpack's shape and design can affect how much it can hold. Nonetheless, it's always important to consider the capacity and size of a backpack before making a purchase, to ensure it meets your needs and expectations. Thank you for watching! - Kez
@@RushfasterTV I'm curious about the width of the bag. You seem to measure the bag about 11-12 inches wide but still "confirm" the official measurement of 8.7 inches. If the width is really 12 inches the volume could really be close to 20 l. Probably more like 15-16 l but still more than the official dimensions suggest.
Another suggestion that Bellroy gives the wrong dimensions is that the bag is supposed to fit a 16 inch laptop. The 16 inch Macbook Pro 2019 measures 14.09" x 9.68" (35.79 cm x 24.59 cm) meaning it's wider that the specified width of the bag that's supposed to fit it.
Bellroy's dimensions are literally wrong for almost all of their products, they always measure the narrowest portion of any side. Even on their slings for e.g. they measure zipper length vs measuring the entire width from middle. They're weird.@@ferinaf3070
Any thoughts on the via backpack vs the via workpack?
In summary, the Via Backpack has a slightly larger capacity, different access mechanism, and a sunglasses pocket, while the Via Workpack is more compact, has additional external and internal pockets, and includes a luggage pass-through for travel convenience. The choice depends on your specific needs and preferences, whether you prefer a larger backpack or a more compact and travel-friendly option.
I always like bellroy’s external design but when it comes to functionality, it is just okay level. Bellroy price is too much hype, totally overpriced.
I trust they'll be able to find a balance between design and function that fits the budget. Thanks for watching! Cheers
Sunglasses carrying case please
It has one right?
where's the rush faster Canadian site!
Hi there! Currently, apart from Australia, we only have the US site- rushfaster.com/, Asia - rushfaster.co/, and New Zealand- rushfaster.co.nz/
Glossy zips and no water bottle side pockets sucks 😕
We appreciate your input, Ned. Thanks for watching! Cheers
Beautiful Amazing backpack ❤❤❤❤❤
Hi there! We're thrilled to hear that you love the backpack! Bellroy is a fantastic brand that we're proud to carry in our store, and we're so glad that you're enjoying their product. Thanks for your support! - Kez
doesnt have front zip
Yes, this is correct.
Bellroy CHZ20
They're both great options with plenty of organisational features 👯🙌 Cheers!
Just like a premium-ish Herschel, similar features with higher quality bits. Make sense for Bellroy targeting that market but seems too overpriced. Might as well pay a bit more for something better.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the Via Bellroy backpack. It's always helpful to hear different perspectives on products. While the Via Bellroy may not be the perfect fit for everyone, some people may value the combination of features and quality that it offers. Ultimately, it comes down to personal preferences and priorities. Thank you for watching! - Kez
Alternativ? Fjallraven - Raven 20L for around 100€
Thanks for suggesting the Fjallraven Raven 20L backpack as an alternative option. It has many useful features and a similar capacity to the backpack. Thank you for your input! - Kez
Glossy zippers are a big no no for me. Otherwise the pack looks great!
Hi Ram, we're glad to hear that you still find the pack great aside from the glossy zippers. Thanks for watching
Yeah - it’s nice isn’t it
We're glad you like it! Thanks for watching
Wish they would get rid of the ugly Bellroy logo on the bag and hide it more. It really kills the streamline look
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the Bellroy backpack's design. I can understand how the logo might not be to everyone's liking, especially if it detracts from the streamlined appearance of the bag. However, branding is an important aspect of any product, and companies like Bellroy often choose to prominently display their logos as a way of building brand recognition. Nonetheless, we appreciate your feedback. Thank you again for your comment! - Kez
Very expensive bag without any reason.
We think it's fairly reasonably priced. Why do you think it's so overpriced?
Calling this bag affordable is misleading. I'd describe it as high value, but I personally think an affordable price is around £50
Thank you for your feedback! We appreciate your perspective on the bag's pricing. If you have any further questions or suggestions, please don't hesitate to let us know.
Thanks for the great review. Does it fit a 16inch MBP? Even though website specifications say "padded 16in laptop sleeve", MBP16 has a width of 9.8in and the width of the Via is 8.7in
Hi there! Given the dimensions, it may not fit comfortably. I can recommend the Bellroy 16" Classic Backpack, here's the link to the item: rushfaster.com.au/products/bellroy-classic-backpack-second-edition?_pos=3&_sid=067651aa7&_ss=r. Thanks for watching!
