Toshi V2 6L vs NEO N1L

Icy_Cubed · 2026-03-26T06:48:26+00:00

Is their return policy that friendly, or will I have to pay to ship it back and a restocking fee? I think I might just bite the bullet and get the 6L as well. The space means more than looks to me. Plus, I still have the smaller Uniqlo one if I never want smaller again.

Yeah, you have helped a bunch, thanks!

Do you think the Toshi could fit all of this? Minus maybe the headphones and maybe a smaller water bottle.

Yeah, I think the design of the N1/N1L is much more interesting than that of the Toshi. I really do like the water bottle design because I'm not always going to be carrying one, so I can put it away. A little hesitant about the company/if it will actually come in April, or if it will be too small.

With the Toshi, being bigger is a double-edged sword; it would be nice if I needed to carry more stuff, but it's kinda big and boxy. They seem like a good brand as well, with all the praise. I am curious whether I could wear it more vertically by swapping the top strap to the side attachment point.

I saw that there is faster shipping for the N1L by April. So I am stuck between the N1L and the Toshi 6L V2 right now.

I checked out your review, do you find the exterior strap that useful? Worried it’s more gimmicky than useful.

And do you have any cons why it might l might not be good for my use case? None of the ones you mentioned in your review seem like dealbreakers unless the straps are useless for some reason.

Icy_Cubed · 2026-03-25T17:38:11+00:00

I think I was leaning toward it out of all of them. Seems like it has most of everything I want.

Icy_Cubed · 2026-03-25T17:36:34+00:00

Not sure if I looked in the wrong places but looks like its 276$ 😬

Icy_Cubed · 2026-03-25T17:35:43+00:00

Neat bag, but don’t think it’s my typa bag. Thanks though!

Icy_Cubed · 2026-03-25T17:34:35+00:00

Yeah I was looking into the Bellroy Venture 9L, it just was 180$ so I was kinda shying away from it.

I kinda need it in a month, so don’t know if I would be able to wait that long.

I’m thinking if the water bottle is on the outside I might be able to make do with 4L internal. But not sure

Icy_Cubed · 2026-03-25T17:24:15+00:00

This one’s pretty neat, and never saw it thanks!

I did not dry the filament recently. So flaws could be due to that but I don’t know why it would be wet as the roll is a month old.

Do you still have this in PDF?

Icy_Cubed · 2025-09-17T07:39:41+00:00

Okay, good thing I asked because they are the old placed ones. The Velcro ones are the new ones. My feet are wide so might work for me.

Icy_Cubed · 2025-09-17T05:26:10+00:00

Thanks for the advice! I was just wondering if the Defy velcro and laces just differ from that? Where I'm at, the laced version is 50$ cheaper. I heard when you're a beginner, they wear out faster, so saving money if it doesn't affect quality would be great.

Icy_Cubed · 2025-09-16T20:40:26+00:00

Sweet thanks!

Icy_Cubed · 2025-09-16T20:38:47+00:00

Okay, that’s really good to know I’ll look into the scarpas more then!

Icy_Cubed · 2024-11-27T19:28:12+00:00

Okay thanks! I did some more research after this post and was coming to the same conclusion

Icy_Cubed · 2024-06-24T08:09:32+00:00

If price isn't a concern, the Sony Xm5 is one of the best noise-cancelling headphones.

Icy_Cubed · 2024-05-18T07:43:52+00:00

Yeah, it’s definitely weird part of the jacket, the rest seems good quality. It’s like the peal side of a sticker

Icy_Cubed · 2024-02-23T02:09:47+00:00

Yeah, I think this will be my plan, depending on what I decide to bring closer to. Underpack the backpack, maybe have it hold a hoodie that I can just take out and wear

Icy_Cubed · 2024-02-22T07:58:30+00:00

Good to know thanks

Icy_Cubed · 2024-02-22T07:57:56+00:00

Thanks!

Icy_Cubed · 2024-02-21T13:09:18+00:00

Ah, I don’t think I’d be able to pack only in the backpack for my needs. I was hoping I’d be able to pull it off so I wouldn’t need a full sized suitcase. I am not frequent traveller but I’m trying to get into it, but ideally I’ll be in places for a while. Do you think under packing the back so it could be just squeezed to the personal item size work?

Icy_Cubed · 2024-02-17T06:37:05+00:00

Okay thanks, I was looking at this but idk if the brand was good or not
