ThuleAllTrail X 35L Backpack

Great overall backpack

I've been using this bag for a couple of months now, and I must say it is a good design. The size is versatile, it is comfortable and robust, the bottle holders on each side are practical and keep the bottles in place, the main compartment opens deeply for easy access, and it is good looking. My suggestion for upgrades would be: - Thicker/more robust zipper for the main compartment; it would avoid the flap to unzipped itself when open for top access. - The possibility to remove the waist belt; sometime it is not required for day to day, and it is bulky when not used. - Thumb loops for zippers instead of the little cord wrapped in caoutchouc; it would make it easier to grab, even more with gloves and mitts.
