Pros
- So if you’re looking for bigger main space and don’t mind the less internal org, go tom bihn.
- I’ve spent years in envy of the folk on this subreddit who have found highly desirable bags made by the likes of ToughTraveler, Tom Bihn, or MEI at the thrift store.
- The Tom Bihn will have better straps.
- Tom Bihn- many to choose from that check your boxes
- I'm a Tom Bihn girlie, so I love to use their tethering system most of the time, but certainly not exclusively.
Cons
- Tom Bihn makes a more “unisex” backpack that was designed for heavy loads, IIRC, but I think it’s ugly.
- Tom Bihn - Too expensive
- Yeah I'm not a fan of Tom Bihn's aesthetic either.
- Tom Bihn is expensive as hell but has some AMAZING colours and amazing build quality but an expensive as shit repair and a warranty I have never seen them honour.
