  • Thanks for watching... In this video I share with you the Thule Paramount pack. I love Thule they are always putting out very cool designs while keeping their prices very reasonable. This pack is made with quality materials. I think it is perfect for school or work. I only had one minor compliant about this pack and it's minor.

    Hey George - Great video and I'm glad I stumbled onto your Channel. I'm a Designer Manager at Thule and designer of this pack and all of the other Thule Paramount bags in the line. I'm glad you're happy with it and thanks for explaining all of the details we put into this bag. As for the zippers I hear you. We typically use #10 or #8 YKK zippers for main compartments and #5 YKK zippers on the smaller pockets and interior pockets. I think in future iterations it would be great to add some sort of handle at the top of the main compartment to allow for a faster opening. Great suggestion. Thanks so much for the review and I look forward to new videos! You've got a new fan.

    I'm so glad to see this review. I was considering this bag a couple years ago when realizing I would need to haul much of my office with me everyday to & from work. I think part of me is still considering it. I went with a different bag because I saw several reviewers on multiple sites reporting that the stitches that attached the bottom to the bag were coming loose. Did you ever hear anything about this issue? Any idea if Thule has retooled the design in the last couple years (to fix this problem)?
    Thanks for another great video -- I find myself often watching one of your bag reviews over breakfast -- much needed respite from the news over the last few years, & especially recent months. Take care man.

    Per the norm, excellent work George. Here we go, some WOW factor packed into an extremely reasonable price point. The Admin section on the side of the bag is a cool idea, totally digging this design. A design we don't see very often. I dig the gold/black contrast too. This is a nice looking bag for sure.
    Here is the question... is the brand name pronounced with a "Th" sound? Or is it pronounced with a "To" sound? I have heard it pronounced both ways many different times.

    Nice review man! A little long so I skipped around a little bit but you covered everything I wanted to see. I'm not feeling the top handle fo the angle it sits at I wish it were facing the top vs facing your back and also not a fan of the inner shoulder strap material, that usually frays after some time I would've preferred nylon or rubber. That being said, I'm buying it anyways! Thanks.

Since you've carried both, mind weighing in? Comfort at this point is #1 since quality and capacity's boxes are checked seems like.

    George, thank you for a consistent thorough review, as always. The first thing I would do to this bag is sharpie over the HUGE branding. It screams at me. There is nothing discrete about it at all. It has a lot of thoughtful storage and the use of magnets is smart and more bags should use it. BUT, I can't draw myself to purchasing it. The design falls between generic and feminine to me. Both of which I have nothing against of course but for my asthetics wants, i'll pass.
