https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/564x/a8/ed/b3/a8edb33fc0909a82675703ffa6dcc6b1.jpg
for about 4 years. it's p well made, has held together perfectly.
it is kind of ugly. my wife uses it mostly nowadays and basically hates the way it looks and constantly complains about how dorky it is and how she needs to buy a new one

I bought a stylish Converse pack last year for its looks and it makes me crazy that it's unwaxed cotton canvas that sticks to clothes and doesn't slide on and off easily, and that the cute retro metal zipper teeth stick and take two hands to zip up. I'm buying an ugly functional one next time.

Not exactly like that but close. Anyway. It's a cute pain in the butt.

I have a boring macpac one that is I guess looks like GEAR but in a non-performative way. Usually though I'm lugging around my bike pannier which is super ugly but hey.

that skagen backpack is nice, i am having a super difficult time finding one in black without a bunch of stuff going on.
bought an APC backpack a few weeks ago but it had giant silver buckles that looked shiny/terrible in person.. returned.. bought one from want les essentiels on sale and it's too big and boxy for me, returned. still looking. i want something i can take to work because my work tote bag is pretty old. and i hate 99% of all women's bags and purses especially ones with any kind of logo or hardware or stuff going on, but i also don't want it to be made of cheap looking material. thinking of ordering something from hope stockholm

Been using a North Face Recon backpack for several years now. Ugly, but it's lasted longer than any previous backpack/messenger bag I've owned previously.

That seems like it's just one deep pocket. Where do your pens and A5 / A6 journals go

It's not a backpack but I think this is the thing that'll replace the current bail out tactical man purse http://i.imgur.com/5Y0RAKM.jpg?1

new topo designs field bag is attractive but I think I hate the velcro closure too much and it's too small. I'm now worried I'll never get away from the tactical bug out bag.
