The North Face Clear Backpack

I’ve used my old North Face internal frame backpack for all my travels since 1978. Now in my late 60’s it doesn’t fit or feel like it used to. I have read reviews on the 45L and decided to take the plunge and buy myself the Peak Design 45L for our upcoming European trip. I purchased it in sage which I love! There are so many cool features. Lots of compartments to keep your personal items organized and separate. The straps are easily adjustable and fit my body perfectly. There are a number of handles on the back so you can easily pick it up from various angles without having to grab the straps. I am very impressed with the quality of this pack and its light weight. I expect this will be the last backpack I buy. Hopefully it will take me across the globe like my previous one did.

After lots of research between patagonia, the north face, and nike/adidas backpacks, I finally bought the thule lithos 20L for college. And I feel like all my research paid off. This backpack is the perfect size for bringing all the supplies needed for class. The zippers are very smooth and feel high quality. The fabric holds its shape, so it gives the backpack lots of structure and a nice thickness. The waterbotle holders are roomy for my slim water bottle, but might not work for those huge hydro flask bottles. The front pocket snaps back into place very satisfyingly. And perhaps most importantly, it's so comfortable to wear!

Bought this after wasting a lot of money on a North Face equivalent. The design of this bag is extremely well thought out, and the quality speaks for itself once you get your hands on it. Money well spent.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have an old North Face duffel that cost a lot more and this one is much better. The detachable straps are great the compartments are perfect and the bag is super tough

My office is in the basement but there are a few windows (the windows face north and are at least 20 ft away from my computer). I've had the keyboard for a few weeks and it has stayed charged mainly from the overhead lights. This keyboard has an excellent feel to it and having a separate numerical pad makes it a great replacement for the Apple keyboard that came with my iMac.

I purchased this to replace an old North Face duffel. The layout and external and internal pocket design make it incredibly useful compared to a simple wide mouth duffle. This along with my Peak Design 45 liter travel backpack is all I need for efficient travel.

This is my 6th travel pack. And it's leagues better than all the others (North Face, Osprey, etc). I just took it on a 2.5 week trip to Guatemala and I was able to pack everything I needed: two pairs of pants, 4 pairs of shorts, T's, a dress shirt, socks + underwear, light jacket, waterproof pants, two pairs of shoes, computer + monitor, toiletries, camera gear, and more. I'm thoroughly impressed. Every time I thought I couldn't fit something, another pocket or nook seemed to appear. I convinced two other people to buy this bag while traveling. I'm pretty sure I could use just this bag for months on end (with the occasional washing). Highly recommended.

Due to some arthritis, it is easier for me to take my camera backpack off in a certain way. It always ends up face down on the ground, so the rear opening of the Shimoda bags is perfect for me. The insert is necessary for this bag but so worth it. I use the small core unit for my Sony G 100-400mm lens. It keeps the lens secure in its place.

the only way to buy it from North American

My only complaint (and its not really a complaint) is: It's so clear that on a bad day it shows up every imperfection on my face. It is clearer under bad lighting than every other square on a zoom meeting.
