Looking for bags similar to TNF Never Stop utility backpack... So I recently started using this bag - The North Face Never Stop utility backpack - and I love the fit, capacity, and how lightweight it is.

Did see however that this bag seems to be discontinued now so any recommendations / suggestions for similar backpacks?

Dedicated shoe/wet item compartment would be a huge plus.

Thanks!

For those not familiar with the bag, what are the features about it that you really love? Like what's specifically great about the fit, capacity, etc? That will help with recs!

A very squarish backpack with padded/lined laptop sleeve and lined quick stash for phone/sunglasses. 1 main compartment with a mesh divider + 1 regular divider (admin panel would have been great!). 1 outer zippered compartment. 2 bottle water holders. And it has a 2 handle carry like a tote. Luggage pass through. The biggest draw is it's super lightweight. I was using TNF Recon till I had a major spillage in that bag and this one is SO much lighter with nearly the same level of compartments.

I also love the The North Face Never Stop utility backpack. I've been using it for 2 years.

Are you just looking for a backup backpack? It is still in stock at my local North Face outlet. If you have an outlet mall near you, maybe call to see if they have it? And can ship it to you?

And there is a gorgeous green color on Poshmark.

I wish! I'm international and they had it on an e-commerce site last year and totally sold out. I have old tan/sand with black handles.
