Overall, this is a very minimalist backpack, which is common for Bellroy - there isn't a ton of organization, and what is there is thoughtfully placed. One thing to note is the color scheme of "lunar" with its yellow highlights. We are big fans.
Bellroy made The Melbourne backpack out of recycled materials, which is something we really support here at Nomad's Nation. Being made of plastic, it has a texture that feels like plastic -denim. imagine if your jeans were made of little strands of plastic bottles.
**********
Get the Bellroy Melbourne Backpack if…
✅ You are a business professional, but you're sick of matte black everything.
✅ You are a minimalist
✅ You dig the design - it's a modern backpack with an old-school design.

❌ You want more features. You love almost everything else about this pack, but the minimalism is not up your alley? Check out our alternative below... 👇🏼

Based out of Australia, their mission of sustainability is quite impressive - most of their products are made of recycled materials and "eco-friendly leather" ( they mean they use less water and chemicals in the tanning process).

Love your reviews. I have a sling bag for when I am solo and a peak design backpack for when I need all the things. This is my in-between bag and probably gets the most use. I really love it. I honestly think this is the ultimate mom bag for moms who are into more casual bags and just want something comfy and practical that still looks nice.

I've purchased this backpack and I'm in love with it, after so many others I didn't like at all. It is minimal and doesn't have a lot of organization, but it is FAST. The magnets are the best thing ever for fast laptop access, and the side pocket is perfect to access glasses, keys and earbuds. Great review too. Wish I have watched it before to buy with your codes though.

@Nomads.Nation 3 года назад
Thanks for the comment Victor - I too think the bag is incredible, but I can see where people come from criticizing the magnet opening for their lack of security. But if you live in a safer city (like me in Hong Kong) it's a stellar pack 💪🏼

Yesterday, I thought I found the perfect backpack. Went down a deep rabbit hole as I watch one review after the other of your videos and am completely undecided now because they're all extraordinary (I own a laptop sleeve, tech organizer, and crossbody from Bellroy). Their backpacks weren't even on my radar until now. All this to say your reviews are EXCEPTIONAL (so appreciate that you dig into every bit of it) and incredibly convincing, hence the indecision now.

Great review! Do you think the flap magnets are strong enough so that stuff won't fall if the bag is upside down or on its side (like when I sling it on one shoulder to the front)? Also, are you guys working on a review on the new Aer Active Series 3? Thanks :)
@Nomads.Nation
@Nomads.Nation 3 года назад
Hey Tom, great question. For the Melbourne magnets, would say it depends on what you had packed in the bag. A few small things? Should be good. Larger/heavier items? More of a gamble. And yes, we are going to review all of the packs in Aer's new fit series - coming soon!! Thanks for the support man 💪🏻

I got it as I gift and the magnets aren't that strong. Bellroy Customer Service said that my item is not faulty and I should be packing less.. The side pocket is impossible to use without the magnets opening. It is advertised as an 18L bag with "SURPRISING STORAGE" but you will be able to carry max a laptop, a water bottle and a pouch. Maybe an umbrella. If you put a jacket in it that will open the magnet as soon as you move the bag to put it on or dash to take the bus. Of course, your experience might differ based on what you carry but be aware that you might experience some of the issues I had or all of them.

Would probably buy it if they didn't use magnets... If you live or work in even the "safest" city you'd still want something that has a better closing mechanism... It is begging thieves to come right in! The design looks nice though.
