Ed, just want to let you know that you do an amazing job with all your reviews. You always end up introducing me to new brands and new gear every video, like your Kinto travel tumbler (which is out of stock at this time of writing, dang). Anyways, I've been looking for a bag that I can use as my personal item while traveling & also use to commute to the office with, so I ended up grabbing this little piece after watching this review. I want to thank you for all you do, and also let you know that you have excellent taste in gear and aesthetic. Peace o/
The Aer Commuter Brief 2 Laptop Bag can likely fit a small packing cube for a short 3-day work trip. The main compartment is spacious enough for a laptop and a few clothing essentials if packed efficiently. Use the secondary compartments for smaller items to maximize space. For best results, minimize the electronics you carry and pack your clothes compactly:)
When choosing between the Aer 16" Pro Brief 13L and the Aer Commuter Brief 2, consider size, organization, durability, comfort, style, water resistance, and price. Research recent reviews for the specific model, and choose based on your preferences and budget:)
Not trying to bother you or anything, But could you PLEASE review the Adidas prime 5 backpack. I beg of you, Because I want to see how much it can hold and just how it look in general, and if I should get it over the north face borealis. I ask you this because there are no in depth reviews for in, only 2 minute videos, and your reviews are great, just please. Do Review on it!!!!!
Hey there Akuqi, thanks for shooting through your request! We haven't typically covered bags from mainstream sport brands but we'll see if we can look into it. Thanks for supporting the channel! :) - Ed
Good question. I think if you're not packing much in the front pocket and you wanna bring the cable kit with you, I think you could - but if the cable kit is packed bulky it could be a tight fit. - Ed
I really want this bag but I'm 6'4 and am worried about the strap being too short and the strap padding not lining up with my shoulder. Any tall people who have used this bag have any thoughts?
I’m 6’ and carrying it on one side isn’t too small but forget trying to fit it crossbody. You can always grab a longer strap which is what I did, I replaced the stock strap with a Tom Bihn Strap.
@@ErykBahla I appreciate the insight. That's so frustrating to hear. I definitely don't want to spend another $30 on a different strap. Really baffling why they would make the strap so short.
@@NoFutureInThis they really should offer a small/med or large strap combo with each bag. Actually that goes for all manufacturers, they should have options for straps when it comes to briefs/messenger/single strap bags.
Hmm potentially, depending on the thickness of the folder I'd say. It's a pretty tight fit. Here are the external dimensions of the bag (so pull back about 1-3cm). Length: 15.5" (39 cm) Width: 9.5" (24 cm) Depth: 3.5" (9 cm) Hope that helps! :) - Ed
Really depends on the width. If it's a 32oz Nalgene, probs going to be a tight squeeze. If it's a taller Klean Kanteen or Hydroflask, you might have a decent chance. Hope that helps - Ed
been waiting for this review. Really appreciate your work. Your reviews are very thorough and of good quality. Thank you and keep doing your thing.
Thanks man! Appreciate the support! :)
- Ed
Wish for 2 things with this bag....1) longer shoulder strap for better cross body carry, and 2) x-pac version!
Hi there! It sounds like the XPAC version would be great for the Aer Commuter Brief 2. I'm so excited to hear about the possibilities! Cheers

Appreciate your support. Will let Ed know. Cheers!
Thanks i have narrowed it down to this and the day pack 2.
Cool animation/graphics at 0:34. Great review!
Thanks! Glad you like the changes! :)

Love your vids! Would love to see some Filson, Arc'teryx, and Patagonia reviews.
Thanks mate! Yeah hoping to get more into Filson and Arc'teryx! - Ed
How wide is the main compartment? will peak design tech pouch fir there?
Please review the Aer Travel sling, and do check out if a 16 inch macbook pro fits in there! Thanks man
Thank you for this video
Thanks for watching! :)
- Ed
Why would it not have padded handles?? To me, that shows they want you to carry it messenger style primarily.
Thanks for the review. Do you think I could fit a small packing cube in this for a short (3 day) work trip?

Im torn between this and new Aer brief pro, what is your opinion?

Nice review :)
Please do the aer tech sling as well
Already on it's way ;)
Stay tuned

i absolutely love your reviews!! is it possible for you guys to do a video on the patagonia tamangito 20L bag? 💗
Hmm yeah maybe - we'll look into it and see :)

Can you make a comparison video with this and the new Aer x Oshman’s City Messenger?
I want this
Is the zips are water resistant?
Would a aer cable kit pouch fit in there?
Good question. I think if you're not packing much in the front pocket and you wanna bring the cable kit with you, I think you could - but if the cable kit is packed bulky it could be a tight fit. - Ed
are the zipper ykk aqua guard?
Hey bro, can I put the aer tech folio 16 in the aer commuter brief 2's laptop compartment? Thanks
Yes, you can fit the folio in the Commuter Brief 2. It has a padded laptop pocket with soft lining (fits up to 16" MacBook Pro). - Prikee

@@ErykBahla totally agree because at this point I won't be getting this bag for that simple fact.

where can you put your nintendo switch?
Hi Paolo! I'll put it in the padded sleeve then the joy-cons can go to the zipper pocket or any of the other pockets. -Rolan
@@RushfasterTV thanks for the reply, i’m just waiting for july to come for my wife to buy me this bag on my birthday 😅
Would this hold a 16” M1 MacBook Pro?
Hi there! Yes, it has a padded laptop pocket with soft lining (fits up to 16" MacBook Pro). - Prikee
@@RushfasterTV thank you!
Can it hold a legal sized folder?
Hmm potentially, depending on the thickness of the folder I'd say. It's a pretty tight fit.
Here are the external dimensions of the bag (so pull back about 1-3cm).
Length: 15.5" (39 cm)
Width: 9.5" (24 cm)
Depth: 3.5" (9 cm)
Hope that helps! :)
- Ed
Appreciate it
do you think you would be able to fit a 32oz water bottle in there?
Really depends on the width. If it's a 32oz Nalgene, probs going to be a tight squeeze. If it's a taller Klean Kanteen or Hydroflask, you might have a decent chance. Hope that helps - Ed
