Just as an aside since we're talking about zippers and backpacks, if you ever want a truly amazing zipper experience out of a pack, get a GORUCK GR1 (or any GORUCK, really).
These are built to tolerate being used for rucking with 100 pounds or more of weight plates inside. So the zippers are tough, but ultra-smooth as well, and the metal zipper pulls have been removed and replaced with loops of para cord that are shrinkwrapped with rubber tubing. Easy to grab even with gloves on.
Also the best backpack in the world for carrying a laptop safely and easily.

- selectodude 4y agoIf we're pitching our favorite bags, I'm going to throw in DEFY bags because they're made in Chicago up the street from my house. I've owned one for 5-6 years now and it's been absolutely bulletproof carrying all my shit all over the world. A good deal cheaper than GoRuck as well. https://defybags.com https://defybags.com
- Bud 4y agoIs it? The Goruck is $325 and the competing bag from DEFY looks like it's $303.
