## Description

The ALPAKA Metro Backpack makes everyday carry lighter and more organized — at 12L, it fits your essentials without the bulk, the top handle makes it easy to grab on the go and the clean silhouette works just as well with business attire as with casual clothes. Two zippered compartments handle your daily tech and work kit: the front pocket features a Mod Key Tether, 2 large electronics slots, and 2 pen slots, while the main compartment includes a soft fleece-lined sleeve for a thin 14-inch laptop or tablet, an internal water bottle pocket, additional slip pockets for a notebook, pens and chargers. In addition, a 3D zippered section for a mouse and miscellaneous gear. Ergonomically padded shoulder straps and a ventilated back panel reduce pressure and heat throughout the day and the Axoflux 400D recycled ripstop nylon construction paired with YKK AquaGuard zippers on the front pocket and standard YKK zippers on the main compartment keeps your gear dry and secure in wet weather. Shoulder strap webbing loops are ALPAKA HUB Accessoriescompatible: Zip Pouch Pro, or HUB Pouch (sold separately) to expand storage when you need more room.

Review: Top notch daily backpack - Fantastic well made small daily backpack. The quality is really good and feels like it will last for years. Very comfortable to wear all day as well.
Review: Perfect for Samsung Book5 Pro 14" and Galaxy Tab 10+ - This bag fits my Samsung Book5 Pro 14" and Galaxy Tab 10+ perfectly. Also have plenty of room for the mouse and charger. I will say, the Book5 Pro 14" is about the max for this size bag though. As small as possible with high quality construction was the goal and this bag does the trick. For a few years I have been using an E-bags Slim Pro backpack but since I downsized to a 14" laptop, I wanted a smaller bag as well. I like the minimalist styling to avoid extra attention and it is well built. Downsizing to this bag just makes life on planes and public areas easier. The laptop will not hit the floor if I drop the bag since it is raised from the bottom of the bag so it keeps tech safe. The straps are comfortable enough, with the weight I have in the bag it could have a little extra cushion but by no means a deal breaker. With just the laptop and no tablet, zero comfort issues. With both items, comfortable but eh, could use a little more padding for one shoulder use. The zipper in the main compartment can get stuck on the rain guard flap at times but you eventually get the hang of it and now it rarely happens to me. Ultimately, rather have the rain protection than not. If you are in a high theft area, I would be cautious what you put in the small zipper compartment since pulling downward opens it. Granted, the way the storage is set up in there, nothing should fall out. You can always remove the little pull tab as well if it is a concern. If I could change anything, just a pinch more padding on the straps and I would say adding more colors would help make this product even better than it already is.

## Features

- Compact Backpack for Minimalist Commuters: Purposefully designed at just 12L for professionals and urban commuters who prefer traveling light. This streamlined everyday-carry backpack focuses on carrying the essentials while maintaining maximum durability with Axoflux 300D fabric—made from 100% recycled materials and fully weatherproof.
- Space-Efficient Organization: Despite its compact footprint, the main section houses a soft-touch sleeve, perfectly sized for a thin 14-inch laptop and two slim water bottle pockets. A second zippered quick-access pocket includes small slip pockets to keep essentials neatly arranged.
- Comfort in a Compact Bag: Experience exceptional comfort with our smaller design. Ergonomically padded shoulder straps distribute weight evenly, while the ventilated back panel reduces perspiration—making this lightweight backpack comfortable for all-day wear.
- Expandable Carry When Needed: While intentionally compact for everyday essentials, this slim EDC bag becomes more versatile with our modular strap system. Attach the Zip Pouch Pro, HUB Pouch and other add-ons to your pack for additional storage (sold separately.) Perfect for days when you need to carry just a bit more

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ちょうどいいカバン
*by チ***ド on 8 December 2024*

パソコン+αと500サイズのペットボトルがちょうど収まるサイズ。 メイン収納にはボトルが収まるスペースがあり、中で散らからないのが良い。 「パソコン以外持ち歩かねーよ」という潔い方が飲み物買ったり荷物増えたりのイレギュラーに対応できるちょうどいいカバンだと思います。
