Another potential alternative I have is the Chrome Ruckas 14l. It’s got the perfect gusseted outside water bottle pocket (and an extra internal bottle holder), a separate laptop compartment, sternum strap, a luggage pass through, and in my opinion the quick grab pocket is a perfect size for small items. I absolutely love that bag. I will say if I didn’t have the Ruckas I would have ordered this Alpaka bag. It’s really nice and streamlined.

I like this as an out and about city pack that still can hold a large ipad, laptop, or drawing tablet. Looks like a pretty functional use of the limited space. I do wish that in addition to the luggage pass through there was at least some webbing on the straps so you could add a sternum strap if you wanted one. Looking forward to an Xpac version for more weather resistance.
@Nomads.Nation
@Nomads.Nation 5 месяцев назад
I love sternum straps, but on a bag this size I think it might be overkill. XPAC version will be very cool
@husain7030
@husain7030 7 месяцев назад
Love this! Flying out in Jan so wanna get a small backpack to take with my carry on. But not having the luggage pass through is really a bummer. Also wanna use this for a small every day office bag. Do you reckon it could fit a lunchbox in at the bottom? Just seen your bag designs too so really torn whether to go for the metro backpack now or wait until yours comes out but seeing how early on your designs are I feel like it might be a while.
@Nomads.Nation

Love the review, video looks great! Alpaka has been in my daily carry for years now, amazing products! I was looking at picking up a smaller EDC, really struggling between this and the newer Able Carry 13. Material isnt the biggest concern between them, both would get the job done. Which do you prefer??
@Nomads.Nation
@Nomads.Nation 7 месяцев назад
If the water bottle holder difference doesn’t sway your decision, then I’d focus on materials. The Alpaka looks and feels like a great metro bag for those coffee shop visits and light days trekking the city. On other hand, Able Carry’s XPAC material means it’s more versatile and can be a great beach/outdoors bag as well.

Love the new format and especially the pastel full-sleeve tee. "No tattoos showing" almost. You could even have a long sleeve that hooks over the thumb so that the sleeve does not ride up the forearm exposing the tattoos. (Tattoos (any body disfigurement): uuggghhh!!!!) (my personal preference though) Great review on the backpack as well.

Love the size and organization, even if the layout of the pockets is not what I might have picked (not a fan of sideways pockets). And the lack of external water bottle pockets is a big pet peeve as you noted. But I'm just happy to see a genuine effort in a bag this size. Too many of the big/premium EDC companies don't go any smaller than 20L. Or if they do, they either go right to a sling (not for me) or think it doesn't require any features because it's so small. After years of hunting, I've only found a couple bags this size with the organization i like -- my point being that it can be done, but there still aren't enough options. It's a hole in the market I hope well get more attention in future

I’ve recently been giving Alpaka a closer look - just picked up their tech case mini, really digging it. I’d be considering this bag heavily…if I hadn’t just preordered the new Able Carry Thirteen. 😅 Question: how well would this pack crush down to serve as a packable day pack within a travel bag? I feel like the tough part is always the straps/back panel, but if it’s possible to get something like this into a travel pack, I’d much prefer that over an actual-packable daypack (i.e., Matador’s).

Nice little bag, great price. I wonder if they will scale it up for a 16” laptop version or if they will just use their current elements backpack as the next size up. It compares well as a value entry vs say the new able carry thirteen revision (I love they are doing a ripstop version of that one though). I think for a pack like this, I’d prob also look at that Moment everything backpack 17L. That one is similar in layout but has a separate laptop sleeve, luggage passthrough and external bottle holder.

Just got the metro backpack absolutely love it! It fits my need for small backpack and comfortable carry perfectly. My biggest issue with Aer City Pack (I had the Tokai) was that it is really slick and lots of compartments, but a tad too rigid when you don’t have enough items inside. No such problem with Alpaka Metro Backpack meanwhile! Icing on the cake is I got it on a discount at about USD 70 😍

Appreciate this review. I will hold out for a 15-19L release 🤭 with a more accessible laptop compartment. As a laptop commuter/remote worker, nothing annoys me more than the extra challenge when pulling out that laptop when the bag is filled out. It always happens as 90% of our local airports require them to be placed separately in a bin during x-ray. And as a freelancer, I tend to always use the laptop randomly, even during inconvenient times. So, I'm one of those who prioritize a superb laptop compartment that allows breezy access 😂 no matter the circumstance.

The external design is very similar to the Osprey Arcane Large Daypack (not to be confused with the Arcane Large Day Pack... OK Osprey needs to work on their naming). And that's no bad thing, it's a pretty classy/classic design I feel. Looks like a nice option for a smaller bag.

I want things to be secure in the pockets, and not sliding around. I also carry 2 A5 sized notebooks, pens, Small Bible, and a couple file folders to hold any loose paperwork.

all those cons for you are pros for me as I do not like water bottle holder and especially luggage pass through holder I hate that as it makes extra bulk. I prefer slightly larger capacity maybe 14 to 18L without luggage holder, without water bottle holder (especially if it's just one side of the bag that is annoying and unbalanced). I do not carry laptop to work just maybe a book and lunch and dinner plus other little gadgets I may need but still this 12L not sure as sometimes you need little extra space for umbrella, water bottle or thermos (I use 360ml thermos for tea to work and water on way back from work)

Agreed with the pros, no so much with the cons though... as for the internal water bottle holder, it's hygienically perfect. Don't really need a huge water bottle in the Metro area, do we.?
