Really loving Pakt stuff. Hope they’ll make a 26-26L personal item size that’s “personal item” sized-still streamlined but commodious enough to flex as a travel bag. I think this is where one bag travel should be going-recoiling away from the bulky 35-45L overly complicated, over-engineered, fussy bags.
11/10 business papers man. I cannot express how much joy it brings me that that joke is still being made. I love it every time, but especially this time.
Just a note as you’re (maybe) scribblin ideas for the future. I’m not a guy, but I really appreciate your more coaching-oriented moments. They’re great.
This has to be one of your best, Chase! The backpocket papers scene got me laughing, and then you casually dropped the Meditation on Emptiness! :) A full time meditation teacher here, and a long-time follower of your channel. All the best stuff I have is from your videos - e.g. YNOT Deploy Multicam, I use it as my edc for years already! And of course you are funny, charming, authentic, entertaining, seem like a very decent fellow human being, and very inspirational in many ways! Thank you, Chase!
I was watching a Chase Reeves video the other night and my tired brain was like "that's not Chase Reeves, that's Steve Carell doing an amazing Chase Reeves impression" and now I can't unsee/unhear it.
"I've ditched backpacks entirely since getting the Timbuk2 Classic Messenger Bag. Being able to see everything inside when it's opened is a real game-changer. If only they had a way to convert the messenger into a backpack with two shoulder straps!" Love your Vids - Cheers from Goa, India
The laptop pocket keeps liguids off the laptop in the event the bag needs opened in the rain or is open when a spill happens. It also prevents the laptop from falling out of the bag and becoming damaged if the bag gets knocked over while open.
Chase, Moleskine is as beautiful as a Field note . ;) Though my current notebook/journal/calendar is a gutted Castelli cover filled with custom papers fixed with elastic rubber band loops. Love your videos!
Idk how this channel doesn’t have a million subscribers yet. It’s the best backpack review channel on RU-vid keep it up Chase. You’ve helped me with a lot of purchases.
Have you ever tried the Behance Dot Grid Journals? I love them for notetaking, great feel to the cover and the paper. I use them for reflections and planning at work and they hold up to a beating while feeling luxurious.
Someone's probably already suggested the Skillcraft B3 Aviator multipen to you. But if not you should check it out if ya haven't. It's a great EDC pen and pencil writing utensil. And it's one of 2 EDC items I've come across over the years that I recomend to everyone that has a need for a pen or pencil.
Oh and that wired notebook you use will probably allow the B3 Aviator multipen to slide down inside the wire ring for compact storage and the pen clip will clip over the outside of the wire ring and hold the pen securely in place.
@P90Camper I always recomend a Victorinox Swiss Army Knife to everyone that I can since there's such a variety of models and anyone can find one that suits their particular edc needs. Imo a good multipen, SAK, and your smartphone will pretty well handle most tasks that might need to be tackled on a daily basis.
I'm currently using this (flat full size): amzn.to/3xkVJk4 i'm on the fence about that one with the Expedition paper, but so far so good, and the flat is pretty great actually. The other i use is this (micro but decent size in the hand): amzn.to/4cHP1Vk
Great video. Question: I don't understand why Pakt makes 22-25L bags that don't qualify as personal items. This 22L bag and the 25L duffle are 19.7" and 18.9" long when personal item sizers are 17-18" long. If they made them shorter, I'd buy.
I always use the 25L duffel as my personal item for overseas stuff. I'll have to look into those restrictions. What regions/airlines are you typically flying?
@@chasereevesDomestic personal item limit is 18x14x8 except United (17x10x9) and Jet Blue (17x13x8). I know you can usually stuff a longer bag under the seat in front of you, but sometimes they get strict about it.
@@chasereeves excellent....I wonder about this all the time. I'm thinking of scanning all my old journals so I have them in electronic records, and have images of them to keep.
