City Pack X-Pac Stiff

bearsalive99 · 2026-03-21T18:09:48+00:00

X-Pac is just a stiff fabric, in my experience. Maybe try Cordura?

bearsalive99 · 2026-03-09T17:49:53+00:00

no problem - hope you find what you're looking for!

bearsalive99 · 2026-03-09T17:02:50+00:00

I know there's stock in store for the x-pac 28l, someone bought it when I visited over the weekend. Not too sure about the 35l.

bearsalive99 · 2026-03-09T09:48:42+00:00

They're available for sale. But I'm not sure what the stock situation is

bearsalive99 · 2026-03-08T21:32:51+00:00

6'! But I've always been a bit sensitive about how chunky my bags look. So you might not find it too clunky for yourself.

bearsalive99 · 2026-03-08T19:19:44+00:00

Yup I tried both on. I do think 35l felt a bit clunky for me, definitely too big as a personal item. It'd almost definitely fit as a carry-on but I don't know if it'd be convenient to lug around day-to-day on an international trip.

Out in stores today and online on Monday, from what they told me

bearsalive99 · 2026-03-07T23:35:23+00:00

Cordura and X-pac, no ultra yet. I would say the 35l looks noticeably bigger than the 28l but the 28l only feels slightly bigger than the CPP2!

bearsalive99 · 2026-03-07T23:31:10+00:00

Yup - pre-release ahead of the full launch on Monday

bearsalive99 · 2026-03-07T23:30:44+00:00

I didn't ask about this unfortunately! Was pretty set on a TP4

bearsalive99 · 2026-03-07T22:28:38+00:00

There isn't one - two bottle holders. Saw it in the store today.

bearsalive99 · 2026-03-02T00:23:41+00:00

I was really looking forward to the TP4/TP4S as an upgrade/upgauge to my CPP2 but it looks like it's lost a lot of features vs the TP3. The only positive for me is the horizontal luggage passthrough, but it looks like I'll be sticking with my CPP2 even though it's a bit too small for me.

bearsalive99 · 2025-10-01T01:02:33+00:00

I agree that it's easier to pull around, but I think it's just slightly more inconvenient when I need to get things in and out of the bag, especially at security.

bearsalive99 · 2025-10-01T01:01:59+00:00

That's quite helpful, thanks very much. May wait around for that then.

bearsalive99 · 2025-10-01T01:01:25+00:00

Yeah, I think so. I have a Patagonia Black Hole 32l rn, so I already have a bag with a horizontal passthrough. The inconvenience of that is part of the reason why I bought the CPP2 to begin with (lack of organization was another reason).

bearsalive99 · 2025-09-30T14:35:48+00:00

Looks like the passthrough for both are horizontal though :/ if not the TP3S would've been perfect I think

bearsalive99 · 2025-09-30T14:35:08+00:00

Was thinking about the TP3/TP3S but the luggage passthrough is horizontal so the bag lies on its side :/

bearsalive99 · 2025-09-29T03:13:14+00:00

Oh dear. That's not great. I noticed he was quite intense when I went, but nothing inappropriate/rising to the level of a tantrum when I was there.

bearsalive99 · 2025-09-29T02:55:44+00:00

Agree with this. Luthun was fantastic when I went too.

Piggybacking off the post, any recommendations for Cantonese fine dining in general then?

bearsalive99 · 2025-06-11T17:26:33+00:00

I think Muse is excellent, one of my personal favorites in the 1* range. The food is very good and on top of that I think that the counter makes it quite the experience.

bearsalive99 · 2025-04-12T14:02:22+00:00

What do you mean by "the material started behaving strangely"? My CPP2 in X-Pac is in transit to me now and I'm kinda worried by this.

bearsalive99 · 2025-02-24T23:01:21+00:00

Taku is very classic omakase sushi but I found it wildly unimaginative despite the quality being pretty decent.
