New day bag
« on: January 09, 2012, 06:05:10 PM »
I was browsing the stuff in T.K Maxx and found this backpack:

I just got a 5.11 Rush 12 small pack at Christmas, but I have to say, I like the look of that pack. Do you mind me asking how much?

It was £29.95 from TK Maxx.  :)  They had a few others to pick from as well.

Nice bag!

When I was looking for a new bag to get for uni when I was in medical school, I seriously considered the wenger bags.

One I ended up going for in the end was the Karrimor Saber Delta 35, and although expensive, I have found it to be an excellent bag, spacious in that it is 35L but it is a really nice shape, and I needed a bag of that size to take stuff to and from uni.

Yeah, if you need to move around any folders then this one isn't for you, not nearly wide enough at the top I'd say.

Even better, when moving stuff over from my old bag, I found a £5 note and £2 in change that must have been sitting there for goodness knows how long. :tu:  So as far as I'm concerned it only cost me £23. ;)

Nice results indeed. Knowing my luck I would give the old bag to my wife who would find the money and give it to our kids, ask me how I know this would happen!!!

Looks nice!  Seems more of a burgundy color to me than brown though. 

I used to be a total bag junky... I seemed to buy a new waist pack, back pack, whatever, every few months or so.  Ever since I discovered Timbuk2 messengers, I haven't changed bags in literally, years.  My laptop bag is 7 years old now, and my EDC bag is 3 now.  Love them both!
SAK pliers rock!!! Stop the hatin'!!!

cheers mate. :cheers:  The colour does have a little red in it, more of a chocolate or mocha rather than a pure brown I'd say. :)
