To be honest I can't remember the last time I wore my backpack fully on my back other than the airport It's always on one shoulder that's why I love bags like this you swing it around and have quick access to the vertical pocket.
Thanks for checking out the video! Agreed, only when I have other bags that I need my hands free for and I now started using a sling lately so that is even lighter and easier.
Thanks for checking out the video…I have yet to buy or own an Alpha One Niner bag at all..but I keep hearing more good things about them…may have to check them out.
I have the CTB20 -- and think it (overall) a great design for its size -- and have the Whitley on order (which I expect will be arriving soon). May I ask what things you prefer about the Whitley?
@@doubleohhhhseven The Whitley design keeps it much closer to the body, and doesn't stick as far out from your back. It also wears "Longer" against your back. It doesn't feel humped up at the top of your back.
@@brochg, thank you for the response. I can understand what you mean about how the CTB20 can feel against the back, so I'm glad the Whitley wears "longer." I'm also not thrilled with the CTB20's _sticking-out_ aesthetic, but it does make for excellent interior flexibility and capacity, definitely carrying bigger (and carrying more) than, say, my Bellroy Venture Ready 20L. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing what I think of the Whitley. Thanks again.
@@doubleohhhhseven Any time! I have purchased dozens of bags this year in pursuit of the perfect bag to take a a convention I am attending at the end of April. The next closest 2 bags for me are the Aer City Pack Pro, or the newer Alpha One Niner Evade 1.5
Hey, thanks for the review! Just to point out an audio issue that I've noticed you've had on previous videos as well, the sound is coming out only from the left speaker/headphone and it makes it difficult to enjoy this otherwise great video. Also there's some stray music that comes and goes at around 3:18. Thanks again for the review!
Thanks for checking out the video and thank you so much for the feedback. I realized I had the switch on my mic. receiver incorrect so moving forward I should have the left speaker fixed and the stray audio must of snuck in there when I was pasting the audio track for my outro…The left speaker thing would certainly bother me…thanks for sticking it through!
People are selling it on eBay for $500 and change. Listen I get it's sold out. Make a couple of bucks but don't be greedy. Go like 40-50 bucks over what you paid..... What a joke I hope none of them sell can't stand greedy people.
Yes, agreed...I ordered a second one with my bag sometimes I try and make a few bucks to keep paying for more bags to review! LOL. But for this one I wasn't sure if one of my family members was going to use it as well. Ultimately I didn't even want to play in the resell game so I just shipped it back to Evergoods...it never was even opened so if you want are still looking for one definitely sign up for Evergoods back in stock alerts. They will at least have one back in the next week for sure.
