Urth Arkose 20L Backpack (Black)

I was a little worried the weatherproof shell would feel stiff, but it’s actually quite flexible and the padded laptop pocket holds my 15-inch securely. The stylus pen insert is a nice touch I didn’t expect to use daily.

The 14 storage zones are incredibly well thought out—my laptop, tablet, and even a stylus pen all have their own dedicated spots without feeling cramped. Took it on a rainy hike and the weatherproof shell handled the drizzle perfectly, keeping everything inside bone dry.

The weatherproof outer shell kept my gear bone-dry during a sudden downpour on a hike, which was a huge relief. I love that the stylus pen insert and small valuables pockets are tucked away but still easy to access. This backpack has completely replaced my old, less organized camera bag.
