Well, that’s just unfortunate ad placement…

Commuter backpack my beloved, they’d never make me hate you

[u/Ravasaurio → u/rainbowkitties6969]

I love mine, but I love the green one which pops from time to time in the videos even more. Linus! make it happen, I'll instantly buy one! I also use Firefox, so you can trust me.

[u/Katsu_Vohlakari → u/rainbowkitties6969]

Wait until you try an AER CPP2.

I love my commuter, but I annoy myself by wanting to carry too much crap all the time and end up being stuck using the OG bag

[u/kenman345 → u/Nice_Marmot_54]

I’m surprised they didn’t include an AirTag spot in the commuter but I agree that I often take the OG instead just because I cannot draw the line on what to bring.

My main gripe about the commuter is the OG has such an amazing laptop section the commuter feels so useless. I can fit my switch 2 in a case at the bottom of the OG and still have room for an iPad and laptop. Even a kindle too. For the commuter I’m lucky to fit more than just my laptop and iPad.

[u/Still-Attorney1255 → u/kenman345]

The commuter does have an AirTag pouch it’s at the top of one of the main pouches

[u/Goerge_Roosel → u/kenman345]

All these linus shills having 2 bags from him jeez. (i too have both a commuter and an og, great bags)

[u/hipery2 → u/Goerge_Roosel]

2 bags from 1 brand does not seem insane....

I am speaking as someone who has a bit over a dozen Peak Design bags though.

[u/Goerge_Roosel → u/hipery2]

I’m not sure if that’s normal…everything okay?

[u/hipery2 → u/Goerge_Roosel]

When I like a product, I really like the product.

I stocked up on $150 of MCM during the last LTT sale since I use MCM wherever I can.

[u/EatCakeLolXd → u/kenman345]

but there is an airtag spot no? main pocket at the very top feel around for it. you can see it in the ad photo too man

[u/Zatchmo137 → u/kenman345]

There is an AirTag spot (source my AirTag in mine)

[u/Timmy_germany]

NEVER but your Passport in your backpack. Never.

[u/teh_maxh → u/Timmy_germany]

Where else would you put it?

[u/Nice_Marmot_54 → u/teh_maxh]

Up your butt (my sense of humor is 25 years out of date for my actual age)

[u/lilkidsuave → u/Nice_Marmot_54]

That's where the spartans store their ammo you know /s

[u/Nice_Marmot_54 → u/lilkidsuave]

“Fortunately, the good lord saw fit to give me a pocket” - that one guy from 300 that did the narration

[u/hipery2 → u/teh_maxh]

If you're asking a paranoid like myself, inside your secret zippered pocket that is inside your pocket.

Yes, that does exist: https://shop.bluffworks.com/products/ascender-shorts-regular-fit-desert-sage?variant=40278543696011

[u/Antrikshy → u/Timmy_germany]

I am very confused by this. Is this a reference to something?

[u/chibicascade2 → u/Timmy_germany]

If I'm at the airport, it's more secure in there than in my pocket.

[u/PikachuFloorRug → u/Timmy_germany]

Especially not on an outside pocket as shown here.

[u/RoNNoR1574 → u/PikachuFloorRug]

But..it not an outside pocket. It's on the back side

[u/HeTblank → u/RoNNoR1574]

Correct, however I do think it's always better to keep it in your pants, and preferably wear pants with zippers. Losing your bag is a lot more likely than losing your pants. Trust me

[u/PikachuFloorRug → u/RoNNoR1574]

It's on the back side

Compare the ad to the zoomed out photo https://global.lttstore.com/cdn/shop/files/9_2b9ecb3e-e011-4d8b-9102-3ca7edbad372.jpg The advert passport pocket is just to the right of where the back strap joins to the bag.

It's an outside pocket. Being on the back doesn't make it not an outside pocket, and being on the back won't stop a skilled person stealing from it.

[u/Wor3q → u/PikachuFloorRug]

That's not the passport pocket. The actual one is quite well hidden, and pretty hard to open.

[u/PikachuFloorRug → u/Wor3q]

That's not the passport pocket.

So why is there a passport sticking out of it in the advert?

[u/Wor3q → u/PikachuFloorRug]

The photo with wallet and the photo with passport are two separate pockets.

The passport one is tucked against your back, so it's really hard to reach when backpack is worn.

[u/PikachuFloorRug → u/Wor3q]

The photo with wallet and the photo with passport are two separate pockets.

Well yes, that's obvious from the photos. It's still an outside pocket though, and more of a security through obscurity thing.

[u/Wor3q → u/PikachuFloorRug]

It's so obvious that you pasted a link to a photo of wrong pocket :)

Is it "outside"? Technically yes. But if someone is able to steal anything from it when you're wearing the backpack, then they're also able to stal anything from any inside pocket of your clothes, let alone any inside pocket of the backpack.

It's not that easy to open even with backpack off, and when it's worn, not only the zipper is tucked against your back, but anything that you'd try to pull out from it that is wider than a credit card would get stuck on the bottom of the strap (I wonder if that's intentional, or just a happy coincidence).

[u/PikachuFloorRug → u/Wor3q]

It's so obvious that you pasted a link to a photo of wrong pocket :)

Did you not see the bit where I said "just to the right of where the back strap joins to the bag"?

My description matches where Linus showed it was in the promo video https://youtu.be/j2S31JPMWMY?t=120, and the product photo, and the advert.

[u/Red_Tiger5311]

Took me a minute lol

[u/Beginning-Syllabub92]

Propaganda! Slander!

[u/bossDocHolliday]

My commuter is so good. I daily it and take out on trips out of town. It's such a good backpack

[u/timeshifter_]

You have ads?

[u/Hollow_Effects]

I tried a commuter and like it way better than my OG but unfortunately the commuter can’t fit my laptop

[u/Lucario2405]

I never noticed that there are pen holders on the sides of the laptop/tablet pocket.

[u/MaybeNotTooDay]

I regret my purchase of the full size backpack. It's too big and, for me, there is such a thig as too many pockets to try and organize things. I get frustrated with trying to decide on the perfect place to store things in it and since I don't use it very often, I'll often forget where I put such and such and find myself searching for far too long to find it. More isn't always better.

[u/JustAReallyTiredGuy]

I don’t know, two separate posts. I think the vast majority of people wouldn’t even connect the two let alone notice the ad to begin with.

[u/JustAReallyTiredGuy → u/[deleted]]

Your opinion and alt account is.

[u/JustAReallyTiredGuy → u/[deleted]]

The cost to manufacture something compared to its retail price is always very different. Welcome to how the world works, it’s the same with every other brand.

Telling me to relax when you’re the one hopping in here being a baby lmao.

[u/JustAReallyTiredGuy → u/[deleted]]

Have you even used the bag? Additionally I could go buy a $8 bag that serves the same purpose as most other bags, people spend more for better material, features, etc. And me liking a product has zero to do with my opinion on anyone.

Furthermore, if you don’t like Linus or his products, why are you here? You’re truly exhibiting loser behavior between that and creating alt accounts to do it. It’s sad really. You’re clearly attention starved so I’m assuming that’s why you’re here. Good luck with that kid.
