so
all right so we are getting into the matin
uh lunch backpack um the reason they call it the lunch backpack
is you have a giant lunch compartment on the front so insulated which is very cool uh just
remember if you're going to put a bunch of stuff in here which they show on the picture they got
like tupperware and everything when you push that back that does take room into your main
compartment so just a heads up there before we get into all the pockets a couple things here
why would you choose this pack right so i'm an everyday carry um i'm an everyday carry backpacker
so uh in and out of work i always have a backpack to carry my laptop in there i carry documents
i carry you know external hard drives all my everyday carry stuff i always carry a backpack so
this backpack intrigues me because of all the compartments
i love having organization in my pack i like to know where things are i keep things very
consistent inside of my pack so all of the storage options and all of the compartments that they
chose to put inside these compartments it was very well thought out i'm really happy
just combing through this bag and thinking about all the options of where things can go
and at a 39.99 price point for a backpack with you know heavy canvas material material seems to
be really good metal zippers you know the black with the kind of army tan can you know uh color
i really like it i really like it a lot i didn't think i was going to like it this much but i
actually i like it quite a lot so uh once again 39.99 you can buy it on maintenance.com or you can
buy it on amazon you can hear the jingling it's all metal zippers everybody um so what comes with
it obviously the backpack itself and then there's a charge port here on the side which you can see
right there um it does have a cable that runs inside of the pack which i'll try to get a good
shot with that with my gopro and a flashlight but anyway you would plug that cable into your
portable charger and then you can keep that inside your pack you can run it to
you know the cord obviously charges this usb uh port and then you would just plug in your usb
to whatever phone uh charger uh end port you need and you can charge your phone while keeping the uh
the portable charger inside the backpack which i really like so i'm gonna go through my notes
here um so once again this backpack is all about storage and we're gonna get into all the juicy
pockets all over this thing because it's it's really well laid out really like it a lot so
food starved food storage compartment on the front here as we showed before open this back up this is
a nine and a half by six and a half it does have a front little uh front little grabber pocket here
where it's uh you can put your utensils or napkins or whatever you need there and then um it's easy
to clean up as well so it's like a you know it's a normal what do they call it like insulated
material where it keeps it's supposed to keep food and drinks cold or hot uh two to four hours so for
a backpack a two to four hour you know you may not think it's a lot when you're thinking about yetis
and the installation of those but for a backpack option that's pretty cool you know i could think
i could think about like going to the airport or traveling to the airport keeping your drink like
you know cold for a two to four hour uh duration while you're either going into flights or whatever
you're doing it's it's pretty neat pretty option like that a lot so i'm considering left pocket uh
this pocket over here um so if you open it up it has like elastic bands uh normal like kind of side
pocket but what's really cool it has this like slit in it where you can put in paper towels or
toilet paper or whatever you want you can pull it out this front little pocket or a slit here
and then you can kind of tear away as you need so you don't have to constantly be pulling out
the whole the whole package of whatever you're using for napkins or whatever which goes along
with the whole lunchbox theme here pretty neat uh the other side kind of saying pocket [ __ ] just
doesn't have the slit in front they say this one's like you know throw water bottles or
whatever if you want to do nalgene or something like that could fit in this pocket here so
uh very cool there uh front pocket so i'm considering this top part the front pocket uh
top there's a reason for that so velcro great addition i love when they put velcro because
you kind of add your own style you can add your own patches i'm a big pvc patch person so i have
lots of star wars patches and things like that i really like that and they actually embroidered the
mate in into the velcro awesome touch mate and i love those little tiny subtle specifics that
companies do so i really appreciate that i think it looks really really good really sharp
this pocket you know normal for has the key fob which is also reflective and this is actually i
believe yeah so this actually comes out as a full key fob so you could actually you know attach that
obviously to your keys and then clip them right in which is really neat good size pocket here you
could you know put charging cords put an external hard drive put your keys whatever you want to
want to do there a good size pocket so very well done on the top there uh where am i going next
so we're gonna go to the main pocket which is this top so double zipper if you can see that a double
zipper on the top like i said metal zippers it's kind of a three-quarter zip right so it doesn't
go all the way down to the bottom which actually i like because it's really annoying the backpack i
have now actually goes fully down and when you get that floppiness because i have a lot of weight on
the front end of these things you know this starts doing this and if i try to zip up the backpack
one-handed with all that weight it won't catch especially when it's all the way down to the
bottom so actually love the design on that with only going three-quarter because you don't get
that over floppiness in the front and most likely even with weight on that you're gonna be able to
you're gonna be able to catch that zipper so being a backpack carrier every single day those are the
things that annoy me so i appreciate if that was the design to make sure that doesn't happen
uh inside um and i'll take some better i'll take some cut away shots of this but uh everything's
covered in like a uh like the inside of a suitcase like that kind of material where it's
like silky but it has mate in kind of uh etched into it or almost like screen printed into it it's
kind of like shadowed and ghosted which i really like and then there's um there's two pockets here
along the back wall like i said it does have the cord and then it just has kind of the open
vessel compartment already nothing on the side you do have your your top pocket which we'll get
into which comes down into this but two main uh two main compartments plus the open vessel
really like that it's all the kind of interior suitcase silky material really really nice you
won't get a lot of agitation on whatever you're putting in here and once again you have the usb
uh plug-in to go to a portable charger which goes to your side port very nice very nice inside
really appreciate the things that they did in there too very good very good so far love this bag
uh tech back pocket all right so let's go to the tech back pocket so not only the main vessel
you have a double zipper on the back side here which if you zip down so this one goes all the way
to the bottom right so that you get your full it's not a three-quarter like the front you're all the
way to the bottom for a full fold we'll fold open okay so this back part nothing right no pockets
no nothing you can kind of see that's how that the inside looks it's like that that silky you
can see the mating kind of shimmering there really like that so let's flip this over to the top and
on this side you have two actual pockets with with a containment strap here so uh top pocket
and these are these are um well my gosh i can't think of the word they're they're like insulated
they're stuffed they're padded thank you holy smokes couldn't think of the word i don't know
why i said thank you i'm thanking myself anyway they're padded laptop compartment in the back
and then you have your uh tablet pocket in the front and i have the laptop is up to a 17 inch
on the back here and then the tablet on the front is the 15.6 inch uh as in screen size that'll fit
really nice inside i love that shimmer of the made in just tiny tiny details embroider on
the front make them you know to to promote the logo on the inside like these are the
things that most companies don't do 39.99 again just just high quality high quality
so the price you're getting and the things that they did padded you know you know padded
to keep your laptops and tablets safe so the crew the screens don't crack because remember
the main compartment you're probably putting heavy stuff you're putting sharp stuff because
this protects it because your your back is going to be this thing's going to be slimming against
your back which is going to slam against the front so very cool i do like the full fold open on the
back end because it's easier to get your stuff in so very nice very thought out really good
really great job so far really surprised how how excited i am about this pack actually
didn't know what to expect just like the dry bag dry bag was very nice the compressibility
if you want to take that like this is along the same lines it's just very thought out all right
another one pocket that i love that not everybody does is the glasses pocket on the top right so you
know with the rest of the zippers you're right here along the top uh you have a glasses pocket
other piece of this it's it's like fleece lined felt lined so it protects your glasses from
getting scratched not everybody puts that inside these pockets so huge plus there very well thought
out safety glasses regular glasses whether you put them into a case or not you know you have
a nice pocket remember this does go into the main compartment so if you have things that can
slam against that you have a potential area for breakage there but if you don't you keep things
low you should be good there but felt lined really like that love the uh i love the patch you know
the black on the uh desert tan you know even the top part here the straps it's just just you know
added touches to make it all kind of flow together looks really good um okay so back straps here
padded good amount of padding you know we talked about padding with the dry bag wasn't a whole lot
didn't expect it it's 19.99 i get that this has nice padding goods amount you won't have a whole
ton of fatigue huge huge padding on the back here right or where your back goes again even has a uh
even has padding on the bottom here so really cool compartment here they have a little hidden
little hidden card uh card pocket inside the actual strap it's only the width you know from
here to here from the stitching but a little secret uh card compartment there if you want
to put anything in there that you got to reach that'll fit in that pocket so you won't have to
keep whipping around your backpack you can put stuff in here that's got to be easily successful
maybe like your credit card driver's license whatever that looks like passport probably won't
fit in there it's not big enough but just some of the general things um secret pocket i didn't see
online which will stay on let's say on the straps so you got some plastic d-rings plastic not a
huge ordeal for the money you're paying a lot of plastic on here but it seems like it's you
know gonna last you a decent amount um so you got the d-rings on the actual handles i know
all the buckles are plastic it does have the does have the waste the waste plastic just to keep you
know riding good if you're doing longer treks so you have a lot of weight in here so that's nice
there is actually so pretty cool here so they have a uh they have a strap here on the bottom
uh across the back not exactly sure what that's oh you know what that's for that is for to put it on
the uh the rollers so you're uh you're rolling like carry-on luggage instead of having to use
your straps and then use the waistband to keep it on this is a separate strap that is tight against
and you don't get any play there right so not a whole lot of play on the strap it slides right
down over your long handle for your roller and you have a bag sitting securely on top of your
carry-on luggage great idea i've never actually got a backpack with this uh with this concept out
here really really cool idea uh last little cute compartment here on the bottom but this even does
have padding but you also have a secret pocket here so you get out you know you can have some
really valuable wallets passports right on the small of your back so they're not hanging out here
right they're not hanging out where pockets where people can zip open and grab stuff or you forget
to zip something they can jump in and grab stuff you can put protective stuff with your straps
right against the lumbar so nobody can get to them without you knowing what's going on haven't
seen that a lot either this whole lumbar you know this uh secret pocket really really really great
thoughts there a lot of a lot of really cool stuff so i think i'm through all the pockets
three two buckles for mats for blankets oh yeah so these uh so another cool thing here at the
top you know they have i think they have this one cinched down more but essentially you have
kind of two loops here at the top where you could put like a blanket or you know a picnic blanket
or a tarp or whatever you could actually loop them through the top even while you're carrying
you know a load with a backpack you have an ability to strap something in here and cinch
it down so these go right to the d-rings here so you have a nice like a cylinder there where you
can slide stuff through so used every inch of this pack i know we didn't talk about the front
but i think we might have but the mold gear on the front on the front pocket here we could you could
actually slide your utensils in here you could slide a knife in here if it has you know a belt a
belt holder spot for it but thought of the really good stuff really good stuff i can even see this
it never stops there's rubber feet on the bottom
so that it actually doesn't just get totally dirty on the bottom it can keep it off the ground
and they're raised a little bit they got a little uh territory to them a little bit rugged
just really really cool stuff thought about everything really actually thought about
the product and what it was going to be used for really impressive um strap roller curve
oh this uh so all the material it's kind of like you know like a jean or a canvas backpack material
but they do say it's water resistant as well i'm not going to test it like i do the dry bags
because you know i have to send these back but just really really well done i really love the
color huge fan of the color here uh polyester fabric okay there you go so polyester fabric
double zippers all over the place i think there's double zippers on every pocket except for the two
sides and the front top and then the sunglasses right everything else has a double zipper so main
compartment has a double zipper laptop tablet has a double zipper and then the lunch also
has a double zipper which i enjoy because i can bring them up to the middle and then choose which
direction i want to go so i really appreciate that so real life application here one for me
i'd use it as my everyday carry because it literally could carry everything i want to carry
plus they'll be able to put my lunch in there and keep it semi-cold or hot which is kind of neat i
don't have to carry a separate lunchbox your lunch can be in your backpack um business travel school
all of the above you can add your own personal style with the velcro patches you want a star
wars day you want to have a nickelodeon day disney day whatever you want to do
just i'm really impressed really impressed by the quality heavy stitching stitching
double stitching in certain areas to make sure it holds strap is strong i knew you've been hearing
the jingling because i'm super kind of pumped about it that are that is all my notes on this
i hope it came across how actually impressed i am really impressed really impressed with
the company the other thing i did say in the dry bag review as well is i the company reached out to
me on twitter and we've been we dm back and forth before they actually sent me the packs because i
wanted to be clear on expectation for the videos the first time i've ever done a product review
that i didn't actually buy and the communication was great they got back to me quickly i wasn't
waiting for answers it wasn't annoying because if it would have been annoying i just wouldn't have
done it because it's not my thing if i if i can't i communicate with people and set expectations but
they were very very easy to work with so if their customer service is anything like my interaction
with them you should have a problem with you know warranties and things like that very impressive
this backpack is really impressive i would use it for an everyday carry um and once again for
39.99 i think my my backpack i carry now i think was anywhere from 60 to 80 bucks i'm pretty sure
if i don't remember or if i remember correctly so obviously twenty dollars cheaper at least
and uh about the same quality but actually more options for pockets than what i currently have so
i don't have any side pockets on my on my when i have now and i actually really appreciate that so
really cool um if you have any questions just like all my videos leave them in the comments
below i get back to every question up to this point um i don't get a ton a ton of comments
so i'm not bombarded that i won't be able to get back to people so reach out to me if you
have any questions and then once again check out matein.com if you want to check out their
website or check them out on amazon as well for this pack or the dry bag pack because these are
the two i got to review really impressive so uh we will catch on the next video thank you
