Another awesome bag review. I really appreciate that you not only packed it out for just a day around town but also for travel. Keep up the good work!!!
Great review! Bonus points for being a RED SOX fan! 😂 Also I like the design, since it looks like I may be able to put a camera cube in the bottom section (where you have the jacket/tech bag) with my Canon EOS M (M50 MKII or M6 MKII) + extra lens or two. Two questions: (1) what’s the width and depth of the interior (bottom half of the main compartment), and (2) I have both a iPad Pro 12.9 in a Zugu case (8-7/8” wide) and a MSI notebook computer (8-3/4” wide x 11-3/4” long x 9/16” thick) - I am thinking both could fit in the two laptop/iPad pockets. Is there any padding on the pocket to separate the two devices, or do I need the notebook computer in a neoprene sleeve or such?
Hey! Thanks for the support 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 I have the wandrd mini cube and it fits in the bottom pretty easily and that cube fits my BMPCC 4k. As for the laptop and tablet separator there is a little padding and I personally didn’t use my iPad case and didn’t have any issues with it!
Nice review dude! been following for awhile, happy to see you get to collab with one of my favorite brands. :) Also, mind telling me about that travel wallet? I'm on the lookout.
Thanks for the support!! And it’s from monarc! I did a whole video on it a few weeks ago but it’s my favorite. Very well made and perfect for travel in my opinion!
Awesome review man! What’s your impression of the straps so far? I know that a lot of people were having issues with the straps on the original venture pack slipping and becoming loose
Looks like an ideal bag for the office, also for a weekend away. I like the colour of the bag. Talking of recycled materials, it looks like Millican is no more. Their website is offline and their social media postings have been few and far in between the last few months,
@@OdieMatthews That's a pity. The recently released some more budget friendly bags but there were zero reviews anywhere. I recently picked up an Oli Zip 15l bag. Will pick up the 15l Smith with pockets as well because they are on sale.
Great video odie - from a use case, would you say this backpack is slightly or significantly larger in terms of volume than the previous venture backpack? Thanks
Shout-out to a fellow Pokemon trainer 👊🏻 Did you use the feature where you can fold the top part down to get access to the top pocket on the inside? (With the diagonal zipper). In combination with the bag not always standing up by its own.
Apart from the water bottle incident, have you this bag get wet like in the train? I'm a bit concerned about the level of water resistance of this bag.
Ahh shucks, thanks, Odie! 🙏👏

Thank you!!!
Great review mate, I ended up getting this bag. Love your videos, love your work. You’ve got charisma 👌🏽👍🏽
Thank you!!!
This is a beautiful looking bag…i love that top pocket and divider! Love the color scheme and would go well with my other bellroy items
Were you able to test it in the rain? I saw a disappointing video on this topic.Thanks!

thanks for the great review! looks like an amazing bag for edc or travel.. and oh yesss itadori and red sox 🤘
YES! I was wondering if anyone would notice my Itadori sticker! My next tattoo is actually Megumi 🤣
Cool nail colors, man 👍
Strap Keepers.
Prefer a separate laptop compartment
I would go for this bag expect for the price which is too high for me here in Singapore... Here is Abt 300+ .... Any other alternatives?
What’s the pouch you had with the gameboy?
What's the stash jar called?? And it goes through TSA no problem?
I've heard them referred to as Strap keepers

I didn’t have any issues with that during my 3 week travels with it. It honestly stayed on really well especially with the sternum strap!

So they were bought by a larger company and it looks like they are gutting and changing it. My old contact told me, very very sad :/

What is the drop protection like for the laptop compartment, is there a decent suspended bottom?
It’s definitely decent. Not as padded I usually prefer but overall very solid.
Great video odie - from a use case, would you say this backpack is slightly or significantly larger in terms of volume than the previous venture backpack? Thanks
So it’s slightly larger on volume but not by much. To me they seem about equal for the most part in terms of space.
Which is your favorite between Venture backpack 22L vs Venture Ready pack 26L ? And why ?
red sox? you from new england? i'm originally from NH. Family in MA. :)
no strap slippage anymore?
Hi, wondering if you experienced a break-in period with the sholder straps? Were they instantly comfortable or did that take time?
Honestly after about 3 days of use they felt really nice. Very little breaking in had to be done on my part!

I did a little but in the way I travel and move about I didn’t use it very often!
Pokémon all the way! Working on my tattoo for Pokémon actually 😂
@@OdieMatthews That's awesome! I still collect trading cards and have played almost every game. Starting with red 😉
Apart from the water bottle incident, have you this bag get wet like in the train?
I'm a bit concerned about the level of water resistance of this bag.
Honestly this material is incredibly water resistant, I had 0 issues with any water getting anything damp.
how does the back support compared to the one on the venture backpack in terms of toughness and comfort? or are they the same?
Honestly slightly better than the other Venture pack.
👍
Would a 12.9 in iPad Pro fit in the tablet sleeve?
Yes! I have an iPad Pro and even with the very slim case I have on it, it’s a snug fit but it does fit!
Does anyone know what's the name of the wallet? I searched monarch travel wallet but found nothing... I think I heard him wrong😅
Go to monarcbrand.com and it’s just called “The Wallet” on their site!
the nails 💀💀
Red & White for the Sox baby!
Painted finger nails? Tf 😆. I know it's 2023 and shit is crazy now but cmon man
Why do painted nails bother you 😂
