Cheers for the advice on the second hand backpack. Got a bellroy classic in near new nick for 85 bucks, normally 220. No shame in jumping in at that price point.
yeah your deffo paying for a brand. I've got mates with them and they love them. but these are also mates who love B&O products when I'm just running around with a pair of cheapo bose and an old base iphone.
I like nice stuff, but I'm not paying for NICE stuff if you know what I mean.
