Lastly, the way to open the main compartment from the top sucks. The pack is not rigid and easily collapses on itself, making it a pain to open the zippers, as you have to open two zippers around crumpled curves every time you want to open the pack, meaning a lot of pinching and re-aligning of material to get the zippers to go.

 The sleeve on the inside isn’t padded, so I would also be wary of putting your laptop in it (as advertised) without some extra padding.

I ignored my instincts to get an Osprey pack because REI gear seems to be getting better over the years, but as someone who works in state parks in the backcountry and travels frequently, I would not use this pack for hiking or travel. The design of the pack and pockets drastically reduces the amount of usable space in the main compartment, the materials the pack is made of are largely uncomfortable, the placement of things like the hardware on your hip belt don’t make sense, and actually opening and closing the bag is a hassle, every time.  I’ll be returning it ASAP.

disappointed

 The rough pack 18 have included a water bottle in each bag. Just to show what that looks like as well, so I am approximately 5 foot 9 around 200 pounds next finish up just want to give some quick thoughts on these bags. Now. To finish up, I did want to give just some quick thoughts on these bags

 The organization in the side pocket could be more thoughtful, but ultimately I love it on looks and utility, but already am struggling with the inadequate zippers. The sternum strap buckle feels ridiculously fragile, and please just put it on a ladder system. The hydration hose clip is fixed to the right side? WHY? I’m concerned about stitching as well. And put a rain cover pocket back in the bottom

Excellent design, inadequate materials

Hey Chris here today, I want to do a side-by-side size, comparison of the tried and true Aria, ruckpack 28 and the Aria signal 28. So let's go ahead and get started. Let'S begin by taking a look at these bags side-by-side next, I want to put these bags on my back again to show what that looks like. I do want to mention that I'm approximately five foot nine around 200 pounds

 Retails for around a hundred and thirty dollars, but again as of the taping of this video, this bag is on sale for approximately forty four dollars and if you haven't had a chance to watch my more in-depth look at this bag definitely check it out. One concern with this bag. The signal 28 is some of the negative reviews that are out there specifically in regards to the backpack strap coming undone, because one county neat thing about this bag. I guess is just that it

 The signal 28 is some of the negative reviews that are out there specifically in regards to the backpack strap coming undone, because one county neat thing about this bag. I guess is just that it. It does incorporate some security features and the ability to take one of your backpack straps off is a good safety feature when you're able to wrap that around an item. So somebody can't quickly grab it, but if it does fail again, that's a huge knock on the bag

REI Ruckpack 28 and REI Signal 28 Side by Side

  I found it not necessary to use however because the pack fits so well on the upper back and shoulders.  It really seemed to stay in place as I hiked.

  This was a little irritating at first, but I didn't seem to notice it as much as time went on.  I can overlook this because of how well I like the fit of the pack to my back.

A very simple looking pack, but as stated a very nice fit and good pack for day hiking and other day use activities.  The longer I've had the pack the more I've gotten to like it.  If it wasn't for the waist strap, the buckle rubbing under the arms, and the additional exterior pouch, I would have given it a five star rating.

The pack seems to be best for day use / commuting / and the like.  I did experience a little rubbing under the arms of the adjustment buckles that are at the bottom of the shoulder straps.  This was a little irritating at first, but I didn't seem to notice it as much as time went on.  I can overlook this because of how well I like the fit of the pack to my back

The best thing I like about this pack is how it fits on my back and shoulders.  The pack really contours to my back and fits snugly against it.  The shoulder straps are well padded and fit very well over my shoulders.  The waist strap does not seem very useful, because as a taller person when I fasten the waist strap it comes across just below my rib cage (rather annoying)

Good fitting day use pack

 The waist strap is removable, and although it isn't padded, it helps keep the bag in place and more comfortable under heavier loads. The straps fit me right where they're supposed to, allowing me to carry the bag comfortably on day hikes and aboard airplanes. Speaking of airplanes, this bag has been my go-to carryon, as it fits under most airline seats with ease.

The back panel and straps are incredibly comfortable...with just the right firmness of padding in the shoulder harness

Near-perfect day/light travel pack

 The side access is super handy! The side pocket with the extra loops and pocket inside make for great organization of items like utensils, pens, snacks and great spot for the rainfly.

Got this pack as a smaller light trail pack, to my trail 40. It was labeled as an overnighter but wont work for the PNW with ever changing weather and I knew before getting it wouldnt get used for overnight trips out on the trails. But it's a fantastic day hike and light travel bag. Love the pockets and locations

Overall solid pack

  Old version could fit a fleece and pair of chacos on top of my essentials and they did not fit at all in this version.  I do like the new top pocket design but cannot use this as intended due to the complete lack of capacity.  Seriously disappointed.  It's not a terrible backpack but it should have a different name and lower capacity than listed

  Well my usual gear that I've carried for weekend trips for years doesn't come anywhere close to fitting.  At all.  Old version could fit a fleece and pair of chacos on top of my essentials and they did not fit at all in this version.  I do like the new top pocket design but cannot use this as intended due to the complete lack of capacity

no way this is the same capacity as the older mode

Consumer Reports

The Tortuga Outbreaker 45L backpack is one of the most comfortable packs in our test suite. No matter how heavy you pack this bag, the even weight distribution, plentiful padding, and highly adjustable harness system will keep your body happy. While not above and beyond, the organization is suitable for the average traveler, and the padded laptop sleeve and plush tablet pocket offer just enough protection for all your electronics. This is not a budget-friendly option, but the high-quality materials ensure a durable, long-lasting travel backpack, making it a high-value purchase. 
The Outbreaker is covered in half-inch-thick Ariaprene foam, which is very comfortable and surprisingly breathable, but it can make the pack feel bulky. It comes in just one color, black. Most of our testers find the black-on-black to have a sleek and timeless look, but some would prefer a more colorful option. Lastly, the high price tag can be a difficult pill to swallow, but considering the quality of the materials, this bag is built to last. If you don't mind spending a few extra bucks for a high volume, high quality, and blissfully comfortable travel backpack, then the Outbreaker is a great choice.

Pluses: holds a lot, carries a 17" laptop, 3 locking compartments, load levelling straps really work well, sternum strap is movable! Minuses: hip pad, shoulder pads could be better (very good but not great), mesh back would vent off sweat

Great travel backpack

 Plus, the Osprey is unable to stand upright on its own (due to not having a flat bottom) and the Tortuga can. Thus, making it easy to put the bag down on the floor when not carrying it.  -comfortable carry-on bag that is designed as a minimal backpack. Can be incognito from budget airlines and can blend into a crowd of people in a city without looking like a tourist

 Though the Osprey had a better harness/waist strap system, but for the size of bag, the Tortuga's removable waist straps works just fine. Most times I don't even use the waist straps unless I know I will be walking for over 20+ minutes.

I was torn between this and the Osprey Farpoint 40L. After trying both of them out, the Tortuga won.

Best Travel Backpack

 Bag was comfortable and secure, travelled well around the city and doesn’t seem as big as it is. Highly recommend for travelers who want a lot of room but don’t want to check a bag. If you don’t have inserts of your own you might want to buy them to help maintain shape structure but overall highly recommended.

I took the 45L bag from the US to Rio and back as a carry-on bag. No issues from the airlines and I had the bag full to max weight with equipment and clothing. Bag was comfortable and secure, travelled well around the city and doesn’t seem as big as it is. Highly recommend for travelers who want a lot of room but don’t want to check a bag

Excellent bag. 45L will go as carry on.

 I hopped on and off buses, the subway, and walked around. I’m 62 years old and the Tortuga bag is a game changer.

Comfortable, well designed
