i love this bag... but
By MarcoVerified Reviewer from Flushing, NY on 5/16/2008
Pros:
Good padding
Cons:
Not well balanced
Best Uses:
Work
Describe Yourself:
Casual/ Recreational
What Is Your Gear Style:
Minimalist
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Arcteryx Blade 13 Daypack:

This bag looks great. I live in NYC, and see a billion bookbags, most the North face kind... So looks-wise, this pack gets a 14 on a scale from 1 to 10. Style-wise, the fact that you can take the bag off and zip to the side and take out file folders with ease... I don't know, it's just such a mixture of professional and casual that I really love the bag because of this. My problem becomes this: this bag is DESIGNED for the tall man. I'm under 5'8" and this bag is HORRIBLY uncomfortable. So really, be tall to wear this bag. I put up with the discomfort, but alas, I'm from NYC.

Comments about Arcteryx Blade 13 Daypack:

I am a backpack addict. I have a problem, one can never have enough backpacks. I carry my laptop with me everywhere. There is not a day that goes by that I don't have my laptop with me. I use one with a 15.4 screen with an added external battery. So it is bigger than most. I have had this bag for over 2 years and it is still in perfect condition. I own laptop bags from Crumpler, Mountainsmith & Osprey. I never use any of them. I am always looking to replace my Arcteryx bag for no other reason than I am a backpack addict and I can never find one that is even close as good. In my world this bag is perfect. If you have lots and lots of files or lots of books get a bag with wheels or get the bigger version of this bag (blade 21). It is on the small side but I carry way more than I should carry. If anything for me it could be smaller. The padding is good but not over done. If you are really hard on equipment forget this bag and get a hard case. The side loading is the way to go. Sooo easy to get in and out. The side handle makes it easy to carry the bag if you don't have it on your shoulders.

It's not that big
By ButterburVerified Buyer from Connecticut on 12/13/2006
Sizing:
Feels half size too small
Pros:
Low profile
Cons:
Side access is awkward, Too thin

Comments about Arcteryx Blade 13 Daypack:

I thought this backpack was too thin. It holds my small laptop but not much else. Also, the side access which only opens the length of the pack does not allow for rummaging around to find things. Lastly, it does not expand very much at all, so it would be hard to stuff in that extra item that you sometimes need room for.

Very nice, well-thought out daypack
By IsamuMVerified Buyer from Tokyo, Japan on 1/31/2006
Pros:
Good padding, Very adjustable
Best Uses:
Day trip, Everyday use

Comments about Arcteryx Blade 13 Daypack:

This may be the best daypack I've found for everyday use. It has the padding to carry a laptop, and it's big enough to carry letter-sized documents and books.

Definitely a winner!

Pros:
For its size, it holds alot, Good padding, Large capacity
Best Uses:
Business travel

Comments about Arcteryx Blade 13 Daypack:

I do alot of business travel and have been looking for a daypack system that can carry a computer, files and other essentials. This is the one!. It fits great in the overhead and when things get crowded, it fits well under the seat. Its also very easy on the shoulder.
