For $200, I can get about 3 weeks worth of meals. This drop sucks but not as much as the laughable price-point attached to the bag. It looks like a cool bag, but not for $200, that's insane for what this is.

m0arpheusI agree, this Everyday Backpack looks cool but the price point reflects the bags overall build quality and design.
All that aside what kind of bag do you use for your day to day travels?

m0arpheusNot to be mean but if you are more worried about the price of a backpack and comparing it to food, you got greater things to worry about. Its a camera bag with a unique design, using some pretty strong materials. If I didn't currently have the pack I have now, Maxpedition Falcon III with Tenba BYOB 9 Insert, I would have bought this when they launched their kickstarter. Not insane for a quality of backpack this thing is. However, again, if you are worried about how much food you could buy with that much money you aren't their customer and you might have larger things to worry about too.

JaysunThe best everyday backpack I every had was one I got on closeout at a B.A.S.S. store for $30. My son took it without permission and lost it...He's still on my shit-list for that one. :(

ZilventI've seen handmade bags more purpose-built that are lighter and better quality than this bag that cost much less than $200 to make is all I'm saying. r/ultralight is a pretty cool community filled with lots of very talented people. And, yes, I happen to care about eating food, it's important to me to eat food.

m0arpheusCan you find a comparable backpack to this for less? I'm curious because I like the Peak's design but it is indeed a bit pricey.

m0arpheusDon't get me wrong mate. Same here. Food is life. However, that being said, I think the price warrants the quality this. Handmade bag using what materials? I have never seen a completely handmade bag with higher quality, durability, and performance while being cheaper than these bags so I'm going to have to doubt you. From presumptions, you neither own this pack nor know the materials used to make the bag. But that's really neither here nor there. Fact of the matter is I disagree since I have never seen handmade pack with superior performance while remaining far cheaper. I have slid on concrete from taking 10-15mph tumbles on my Falcon III and it survives with hardly a scratch. If you know any packs, I would love to know though.

ZilventSounds like the Falcon III is tough as nails! And, you're right, I don't own this particular bag nor am I aware of the manufacturing process that went into it. That being said, if you give me some time, I'll send you links to homemade packs made by peeps at r/ultralight that I particularly thought were rad. I've just got a lot of work to do today so I can't reply right now. Have a good one homie :)

m0arpheusYou too man. I am interested in those kinds of bags since I do use them to carry my equipment during shoots and when I travel around school. The Falcon III is crazy strong. I also have its smaller brother, Falcon II, and its the one I have hit the concrete with. Though the packs are much heavier because of its material used to make it, but I rather have durability over weight. From what I understand, the 600D Kodra is a Korean made Cordora and is very durable. I own a couple Peak Design products and they are VERY well made so I don't doubt their backpack is any kind of exception. But if your bag doesn't fit your needs or isn't quite perfect for your use, then this is definitely not worth the price. From what I can tell, its a really good bag but you need to be able to use all its special traits for it to be worth it IMO.
