Commuter Pack

Sympl Commuter 2.2 Review

The backpack I didn't know I needed

I've been on the hunt for a new pack for awhile now. I've been using different ones over the past few years, and found that none of them met my needs. That's until I saw a review of the Sympl Commuter Pack 24L in Carbonate. After that first review, I watched more and more reviews of this pack than I can count. Until something clicked and decided, this has to be the right one for me. I received it in the mail. Opened it up. And immediately I knew something was different. The front admin/tech area is a dream. I am able to fit all of my quick access tech right there in front. It's easily accessible and easy to find. I love it. The clamshell opening is lovely. Great to load all of my daily essentials with the ease of locating exactly what I need without having to scrounge around to find it. The laptop sleeve is perfect for what I need. I don't carry a separate tablet, so needing another slot for something like that is unnecessary to me. The front quick access side pocket is perfect for my notebook/journal. It makes it easy for me to grab when I need to take some quick notes or just jot down what I am thinking about the day. I love the side water bottle pocket. It's a perfect size for my bottle. I don't use a gigantic one, so the size is perfect for me. And the other internal "water bottle" pocket is great for my umbrella. I saw a lot of reviews where they used that area for that, and I can confirm it work perfectly for that sort of thing. Overall, I love this pack. I think this is definitely my endgame EDC backpack. I'm so glad I pulled trigger and purchased it. I see myself using this until the wheels fall off. Which is something I don't believe will happen anytime soon.

My new go to bag!
