Synik 26

Excellent—but with a caveat

I enjoy this bag a lot: at first, I thought it was much less spacious than my other former bag of 10 years; however, I soon appreciated areas of the bag like the water pocket: I really feel so much more of a difference when it comes to the weight distribution of my back. What I don’t like about it—or wish there was some type of improvement? I feel that with this price tag, it should come with a little bonus item aside from the snap hooks. I think because this bag features less pockets and areas to store items, it should have a free item like a mini ghost whale or something; to advertise the bag as customizable, I think it would be in the company’s best interest to do so. Why? Because as a consumer, I don’t know or can’t imagine just how an organizer like the ghost whale would fit nicely in one pocket or the other. But, I’m just nitpicking; I think the bag, overall, has held up pretty well these past few months. I really hope to get as many years out of it like my previous bag.

My new favorite

I am 100% satisfied with the size and versatility of my Synik 26. I used it as a carry on for under the seat and it was the right choice. The size fits right for my medium build and carries a lot. No issues with it and my order arrived promptly.

My perfect EDC

Huge fan of the updated Synik 26. It holds everything that I need on a daily basis with ease, and is super comfortable to wear. After buying and selling a ton of backpacks in the past, the Synik is perfect for me.
