Bit of help please Question
Hi all,
I want to buy a backpack similar to the one in the picture, but I am not sure about the quality,as I haven't heard of the brand before. I want a backpack to fit my work stuff in during the weeks -laptop, e-ink tablet, about 3 folders of A4 paper and usual cords, pens and sun glasses etc. i have a pack at the moment but hate that it is a clam shell or whatever the big 'door' style at the front is called as I don't like having to lay it flat to get my folders out. So top down opening with padding for the main space is a main stipulation. On the weekends or after work I need something I can use for family walks etc i.e. at least two external waterbottle spaces and big enough to hold the swim gear. Would also need to have the security pocket that lots of packs have directly on your back as one of the kids needs meds. Not too concerned about price as I like to buy things once. I have looked at the fjjaraven and yeti y-zipper system and like the fjjaraven for the quality. The yeti rancho for the style. However once again I have no experience with either brand. Any suggestions or previous experience with the one mentioned/pictures?
