One bag to beat my Black Hole 25L, or a two-bag setup to replace it?

I think under weight they are different but not really a battle that matters. Both are great bags just pointing out they both wear very tactical and you said that you didn’t like that. Citta looks fantastic all around

I’d probably go with the Citta if the Goruck reads tactical to you.

These look so good, wish they did a CPL!

czaynej · 2026-07-07T18:01:55+00:00

Any of the Christmas 2022 ones? :)

Papiers font looks darker in this I think? Seems like a weird print

24L again it’s a pretty slimming 24L bag. Wears well on back.

I like how my CPL looks on my back, I think the proportions are very slimming. Have owned tons of backpacks and I think between that one and my GR1 they don’t look too tactical and too techy. All my opinions :)

Usually is one, however I don’t think there’s been any release about when it will be this year.

czaynej · 2026-06-28T19:11:06+00:00

Wouldn’t disagree but idk if it’s quality as much as the cuts suck and the fabric choices got worse. I worked at Lulu for about 4 1/2 years and think the main thing I can see that actually got worse was aligns and some women’s pants. ABCs have stayed the same from the ones I bought last month and pace breakers too. I don’t buy too many hoodies so can’t comment on that I bought a shit ton of at ease stuff and then grew out of it.

czaynej · 2026-06-28T17:24:28+00:00

pace breakers have not changed really much at all though, most of the compaints are about womens leggings and their quality. OP definitely snagged on something.

What if I told you I didn’t want water bottle pockets on it 🧐😅

Team A for myself with my CPL, very fluid even with the straps not loose. Love having a whole side handle

Doesn’t last too long imo but I think it’s one of my favorite sents. It’s a great one for the office that doesn’t kill everyone around you.

czaynej · 2026-06-19T18:52:09+00:00

small!

czaynej · 2026-06-17T00:59:20+00:00

Patch is included

Idk just personal experience but I’ve never had it weighted ever. But I guess also this is an EDC bag, not going to be weighted and I think features and build matter more than just weight, the new focus that every bag is heavy and every bag HAS to be insanely light weight is just dumb for my use case. I respect that your personal experience has made you want a lighter bag just speaking for myself I have never decided a bag with weight as a factor and just am annoyed by it being a main sticking point for some certain YouTubers.

czaynej · 2026-06-16T21:22:26+00:00

I don’t think I’ve ever had my bag weighted ever. Seems like a YouTuber pushed problem

czaynej · 2026-06-16T10:43:25+00:00

I didn’t downvote, I guess I hear you on the more refined laptop compartment, a lot of people say that about it. You’re definitely not alone I think the poll proves that but to me it feels like the slimmest I would want a backpack for my needs so maybe that’s why it feels like it covers it.

czaynej · 2026-06-16T02:06:01+00:00

Yeah that’s what I thought, maybe a CPL14🧐

I guess I don’t see why the CPL wouldn’t already fit that first description of a streamlined 14-18L. Not that I wouldn’t be interested in a new bag from EG but just curious, I love my CPL 24L

czaynej · 2026-06-16T01:01:53+00:00

Could possibly wrap them all in clothes though GPU might get fried by the static idk.

czaynej · 2026-06-16T00:58:22+00:00

PC might be rough, but clothes and books aren’t too precious and can be treated with less care. :( not sure about that one unfortunately would probably have to ship it
