This bag is simple, tough, and backed by a well-tested repair-or-replace program. Short of purposefully slicing into it, there’s little you can do to it that it can’t withstand. But it comes with militaristic undertones that aren’t to everyone’s taste.

This backpack by Osprey is very well made but keep in mind this is a laptop backpack. It’s not going to take a lot and I am quite disappointed with the size. It’s long but thin. Zipper doesn’t go all around because of the bottle pocket will not allow for this

Way overpriced laptop backpack- long and slim

 Let's take a look. let's take a look at some of the specifications for this flagship bag. First of all, it's made out of 1000 d cordura front and back all around. It's got a uh, the Ykk zippers all throughout and these uh little paracord pulls on it so that's uh, adds

 And then they went to a naming convention where the Gr1 now has two sizes, the 21 liter and the 26 liters. So so what I'm gonna cover today for the Gr1 specifically is the fit. What size works best for you? Which one should you consider the function and packing all the different ways you can use this bag? Let's get into it. The Gr1 right up front and center

 Originally the Gr0 was the 21 liter size and then the 26 liter. The bigger size was the G01. And then they went to a naming convention where the Gr1 now has two sizes, the 21 liter and the 26 liters. So so what I'm gonna cover today for the Gr1 specifically is the fit

 soups and nuts, every version, every color. What? it's good for what it's not good for, What size is best for you, How to use the bag, how to pack it everything. Let's get to it. Take our Gr1 [Music] All right, this is it

GORUCK GR1: Fit, Function, Packing in EVERY Mode - 6 YEAR REVIEW

 If you're at all familiar with the backpack space, then you'll know of Goruck's for now. Having spent some time with the Gr1 for ourselves, we'll be the first to tell you the bag doesn't disappoint. However, it's important to keep your expectations realistic. The Gr1 isn't abounding with organizational provisions, and it won't wow you with a bunch of fancy bells and whistles

 Because it's designed to double as a rucking bag, the Jr1 boasts some of the beefiest straps you'll find on a backpack. Where most packs typically come with some plushy mesh padding on their straps, the Gr1 instead sports two layers of dense foam, one to provide structure and the other to add a bit of comfort. They're pretty stiff when you first get the bag, but they'll break in more and more with continued use. It's worth noting, though the straps are pretty coarse

 However, it also makes the pocket into something of a bottomless black hole. Not a deal breaker by any means, just something to consider if you're packing and unpacking on the move.

Where most packs typically come with some plushy mesh padding on their straps, the Gr1 instead sports two layers of dense foam, one to provide structure and the other to add a bit of comfort

 However, it's considerably more supportive, especially when combined with the interior frame sheet on body. It's completely absent of any hot spots whatsoever. No matter how much weight you're carrying, just be sure to check your size. Our tester stands a solid 511, and while the 21 liter makes for a great fit, the larger 26 liter model can be a bit long depending on the size of your torso

Hands On: GORUCK GR1 Backpack Review

 It just screams “chic”! This is also very comfortable when worn, as the shoulder straps and back of the bag are very well-padded.  • Durability: As noted, this is well-padded and made of a solid polyester fabric material. As I intend to wear this for walks to/from the office and daytrips, I believe this should hold up just fine.  In summary, I love the color and comfort

I’ve owned many different kinds of travel backpacks. Although my luggage collection tends to be quite nice, my travel backpacks tend to be of the lower-end variety. I’ve heard great things about this brand, so I decided to give this a try. Here are some thoughts after a few daily uses along with a short weekend trip:  • Size: This is labeled as a large backpack

 While it is certainly long and wide enough to fit a 15.6” laptop, the depth is not quite what I imagined as it is built to be a little flatter than most large backpacks.  • Pockets/Compartments: This is a fairly simple backpack when it comes to pockets/compartments. The front contains just one compartment

  • Comfort and Look: On the contrary, this is perhaps my favorite aspect of the bag. I got the Stargazer Blue and absolutely love the color. It just screams “chic”! This is also very comfortable when worn, as the shoulder straps and back of the bag are very well-padded.  • Durability: As noted, this is well-padded and made of a solid polyester fabric material

Not a full zip-around, but great for intraday use

 I imagine the carabiner on the right shoulder strap could come in handy to secure it to a chair or stroller when out in public and not wearing it on my back.

 I think this is due to the how little this protrudes away from your back, and the ridged foam back panel that gives it a nice flat surface that comfortably rests on your back. (pic of empty backpack staying flat when I’m holding it up horizontally) Photos are for size and volume. I do not have the best lighting, and the backpack looks much nicer in person. Also, in most photos, I left the water bottles in the outer pocket, which gives makes the backpack look uncharacteristically lumpy

  For the sake of this review and photos, I tried to fill the bag up to show what can fit. Even then, it was still very comfortable, definitely did not feel the weight like I would when using any other backpack I own.

4.5 stars, Great day bag / diaper bag

Great build quality, looks nice, minimal and slim despite the fact that it fits way more than it looks like it does. Great laptop and secondary laptop/iPad sleeve inside. Water resistant material, great ergonomics and spaces/pockets inside. Feels good on the back too

 On the other side, there's dual zippers there and you simply use that to zip it up, zip it up, and there you have it in its stashed, packed state. You have a little bit of matador branding packable backpack 16 litre. This is great because you can just chuck this inside your rolling luggage or your duffel if you're going traveling and then when you need to use it, you simply unpack it put all your stuff in and go out for a day trip, and this is what makes These packable bags so good the fact that they can go into such a small state and use very little space when packed. So this is the matador on grid backpack, i'm 510

 But for now this has been the matador on grid backpack, take care and we'll see you next time: [ Music, ], you 

 This is my 32 ounce nargin water bottle and it sits in there really nicely it expands out to accommodate that space, which is great you've. Also got that same water bottle pocket on the other side as well, so you could have two water bottles in there if you wanted to - or perhaps a compact umbrella, some sunglasses anything that you'd prefer to stick in that pocket. Another really cool thing that matador has done with the on grid series is that they tried to remove as much top stitching from the bag as possible. The stitching that you see around the edges that kind of stitching and they replaced it with minimalist bar tack, stitching in various points in the bag, where it's needed, and this has really helped with the overall refined, look and minimalist aesthetic in the bag, which, i think Is really cool? Turning to the back panel again with matadors packable bags, you're, not really looking for a super plush dense, you know eva foam type, padding or things like that

 So if you are using a laptop with this bag, i would highly recommend that you pair it with a protective laptop case or a protective laptop sleeve, just to make sure that it protects the laptop from any bumps or falls because there's no internal protection in this Bag, while we're here we're going to perform the rush faster, big capacity test, to show you just how many tinny six packs can fit inside this bag. Now i wouldn't necessarily use this bag as a drinks porter, because there's probably not enough strength to hold the weight of these beers, but just to give you a sense of the size we're gon na perform the test all right. So that's one! This is two now keep in mind. This is a 16 liter bag, so not sure if we can fit three but we'll try, maybe looks like maybe just maybe just yeah there

Crazy Lightweight Packable Bag - The Matador On-Grid Backpack

 So you can see on the inside of this top pocket. We'Ve got the logo here and i'm actually going to open this up a little bit just so. The air can escape, but you can easily just pack this into itself here and i like that - i think that's better than other matador bags in the past that have come with separate compression uh bags. So here it's a dual sided zipper, so you can get access to each side

 So i think this is the best of the bunch. Personally, although it's even a little bit larger, i do appreciate that the fabric is a little bit thicker a little more robust. We got the ykk zippers on there and i feel much better about the durability than i do in the advanced series i mean you can already see here on the advanced series we brought this up, but after only a little bit of testing, we already had some Kind of stitching issues on this here and then they use the different zippers on here. Non-Ykk zippers, so definitely appreciate that in the on grid series, the on grid is my favorite of these three

 Here, that's packable and durable as well here to kind of adjust the backpack straps a little bit of bar tacks down here to help reinforce, pull that up, so you can see it to help kind of reinforce that attachment point so definitely like what matador has here. As far as the durability is concerned, and a little mini strap keepers down here as well, just to kind of keep things a little more managed but yeah, i feel like in the advanced series they it was just it wasn't quite there with the fabric. I, like the on grid series fabric a little bit better and the most important part is that we're using durable, ykk zippers here and on the previous iterations. They were using sps, though they were a little more weatherproof

 So that's about it as far as what's going on in the outside of the bag, let's jump into the pocket here. Let'S this front pocket, you can see there's a bit of like fabric welting here which helps cover up the zipper. Coil gives it a little bit more of a clean look matador logo up here, nice and subtle, and this is where i've been kind of just dumping in my tech, so i haven't been using pouches here. I'Ve been trying to utilize these pockets

Matador On-Grid Packable Backpack Review (2 Weeks of Use)

 So let me zip this back up, zip, the main compartment back up and i'll just show you how it compresses, so we unzip the front part. This is a double sided, ykk zipper, so everything just starts to stuff away in there, and i really really like this solution again more than the previous matador bags as well, where you kind of had this separate stuff sack and iteration one had these clips or iteration One had a zipper, but iteration two has these clips on the little packable bag it comes with, but i just think a zipper is a much more integrated and better solution. So let me just zip this up there and there you have it. The 16 liter matador packable tote from the on grid series check out packhacker

 This goes all the way down to the bottom of the tote as well. So ykk zipper is really nice all that stuff. So let me zip this back up, zip, the main compartment back up and i'll just show you how it compresses, so we unzip the front part.

Matador On-Grid Packable Tote Review (Initial Thoughts)

  The laptop sleeve on the inside fit my HP Elitebook 14" well, most 15" laptops would be no problem. This is a packable daypack, so don't expect any laptop protection, so you need to be aware to set it down carefully, but it's nice that they include a laptop pocket.  The shoulder straps are sufficient for a packable daypack, I wore this bag for 8 hours at Legoland in Orlando a month ago with about 10lbs in it, and can't recall it being uncomfortable at all even once. This bag has nice strap keepers built in which help maintain a clean look

Perfect Packable Daypack!
