Took the Allpa 35L on a 5-day hop through Portugal and I finally get the hype. This thing feels like it could survive a tumble down a cobblestone staircase and still keep your laptop safe. The internal mesh compartments are game-changers packing cubes feel almost optional. Only real gripe? No external bottle pocket, which makes me do that awkward “where do I stuff this Nalgene” dance. But overall, for minimalist travel with a touch of grit, it nails it.
Anyone tried the Del Día version? Curious if it’s just about the colors or worth it functionally too.
