Tortuga Outbreaker 45L

I have no major complaints. This is a great backpack.

Tortuga brand backpacks. I have a 45L Outbreaker and love it for urban/vacation travel. Their backpacks open like a traditional suitcase, giving you much easier access and packing/repacking ability. I really like the quality and have recommended them to lots of friends.

I personally love my outbreaker 45l, granted I have only used it on a handful of trips, and I am sure there are better bags for the money ($150) but is pretty comfortable. I use as my winter pack and it has enough space for my needs. My only real gripe with it is lack of an actual water bottle holder, but I use a carabiner and one of the side pockets which works ok.

Headphones/kindle/charging cable/passport went in the small zippered compartment closest to my back. Fully packed out with all that stuff it came in around 10kg. On the way down to patagonia, aerlinea argentina made me weigh it, but they allowed me to fill my pockets stuff which easily got it under the 10kg. This bag really performs exceptionally well at his price point and I can't say enough good things about it.
