I wish I would have seen this video (and the IG ad for this bag) like 72 hours ago. I've been looking for a portable way to pack for using mass transit to get to conventions I work at. This bag, and those packing cubes, look like I should buy them. I know this vid is 2 years old, but you nailed everything I look for in review videos. Thank you!

I have been comparing travel backpacks for a few weeks now and I’ve settled on Nordace! I can’t afford it quite yet but when I purchase I will be sure to use your code!! 💕

I love your channel, it inspiraties and helps me with organization, being myself and keeping up with you. Thank you so much for making these videos and having this channel. Love you Xx
I've got two questions: 1) is the beige color more pink-ish or yellow-ish?? And 2) does this discount code also work when they already have discounts on their products?
It is definitely not pink, it's a very sandy beige. The discount code works on top of existing discounts :) Let me know if there is anything else I can help with!
I love the brand, cubes and backpack. I have all in black colour and agree the zippers are very high quality. Although packing cubes main zip doesn't fully close which is annoying for me. I never used packing cubes before so not sure if this is common. I actually compress alot with it and that lots of stuff pushes the zip away open. It might just be the way I do it but for me I had to remove them orange "lips" to stop it from opening mid flight
I have one of these I love it The only thing is it would be better if it had a strap across your chest because it makes it lighter I’ve done this with another strap Also it stops the bag from sliding of your back while your walking
I throw mine in the delicates wash once in a while and it works perfect!! If you do decide to get them make sure to enjoy an extra 10% off with the code “sofia10” at checkout :)
Just the packing cubes! The bag has a usb plug so I don’t put it in the washing machine. A wet cloth with lukewarm water and some clothes soap cleans it very well! The bag is water resistant so there’s a layer of protection that keeps the cloth of the bag from getting too dirty. The code works for both!
Hi Sofia I’ve been thinking I’m ready to purchase this backpack with your code 😊 Do you find that the cream color gets dirty often? I’m wondering if I should pick the cream color or the grey. The cream looks so good but I don’t want it to stain 🤔
Cream is my go-to color with Nordace products, honestly it is so so easy to keep them clean. For example, the backpack is water resistant so it doesn't stain as easily, but when it does (I toss it on the floor a lot) I take clothes cleaning liquid and a wet warm cloth and it comes right off! The packing cubes I throw in the washing machine. Hope this helps :)
I know the bag is water resistant but have you had any scuffs or marks on the beige bag? I am worried about spending all of that money and then getting marks on it.
Any mark I’ve gotten on it before has come out with a wet cloth and a bit of clothes detergent easily. So of course it gets occasional marks if you put it on the ground etc but nothing that you won’t be able to clean! I have my bag on airport floors constantly and it’s still good as new
They are useful for organization in general! I use some to store seasonal clothes such as summer tops and shorts. Or if you go to the gym or something :)
How would you compare Nordace's packing cubes to the ones you can get off Amazon, especially since Nordace's ones are pricier? Definitely going to get the backpack though :)
Hi Fiona! I could honestly go on and on and on about the differences but mainly: the zipper quality. I’ve had amazon ones for years (the ones usually priced at like $10) and they last me 3-4 months before they rip, zipper breaks, net breaks, etc. I travel a lot, so in the end I was spending a lot on replacing them. These are incredibly sturdy. Zipper, material, everything about them. The other thing is definitely the cool compression system that goes around the pouch: the amazon ones you pretty much have to squish things in and then zip. These ones you zip the zipper around several times and it compresses everything for you. If you’re planning on buying the bag, it’s especially nice because it fits two PERFECT whereas the amazon ones you have to sort of puzzle in. The amazon ones definitely do the trick if your budget is saying “bag only”, but definitely invest in better quality cubes when you can; worth it. And btw, because of how much I rave about their products, they sent me a discount code to share so if you use “sofia10” during check out you get 10% extra off (even on top of sales). Hope this helps!
@@SofiaAbrantes thank you so much for your thorough and fast response - very useful! I'm definitely going to purchase them especially as they're on sale + with your discount code! I have two trips coming up so I can't wait to use them then :)
Smart bags are actually not allowed by TSA, so the way it works is you plug in your power bank on the inside of the bag, and you use your phones charging cable on the outside. This way when you're flying with it, etc, you wont run into problems :)
@@fairysaurus7557 I travel with mine absolutely everywhere (just came back from New York and Florida with it) and I honestly put WAY too much in it and it always holds up. The bag comes with a warranty, and if it breaks within the warranty period they send you a new one for free! It's water resistant, which means it barely ever gets dirty. I honestly highly recommend it. The original video I made of it (on my channel) got so many views that the brand actually gave me my own discount code to thank me, so if you want an extra 10% off your purchase use the code "sofia10". Hope this helps!

Been using these for two years now and had no issues with the zippers on the backpack or on the packing cubes. Will say these leave a small gap between the zippers when closed super tight. This has never been an issue but I know it annoys some people 👌
