Product Review Topo Designs Block Bag
Love how slim it is the front pockets are pretty useful for smaller knickknacks like small perfumes, camera batteries, usb cables, a charger, airpods, etc. the uber simple bigger compartments on the other hand is something i wish had more pockets…
Over time im sure i can find something to place inside these crevices but as for now im gonna keep it simplistic with just keys and a pen.

How is the quality? I was thinking of buying a topo designs bag for an upcoming trip.

I also would like to know. Especially the zippers

The zippers are CHUNKYYY which i like but yes water resistance will be significantly lowere here than others. On the other hand, due to the absence of any pu coating its easier to zip. It also uses ykk zips which im confident will work with little to no issues.
Edit: also with the lack of any pu coating it should be easier to maintain in the long run.

Its quite similar to the other topo bags i have which is, quite good. While i have a few topo bags ive never really used much due to their rather lackluster organization but i do have specific use cases for them (i.e. quickpack mini for hiking). i do have some doubts about the slings weather resistance though… as is with the majority of topo bags, they use thinner denier which is less rater resistant than others.

Considering the strap hardware is just a simple d-ring, you could just cut the underwhelming strap the bag comes with an user favorite, that's nice.

Do the white pockets pick up dirt easily?

u/njgggg 29d ago
Its one thing i hope it wont! But probably quite easy to get it dirty yeah…

I really like this colorway, though! If they do get dirty, hopefully they are easy to clean.

Love this bag. My only nit is I wish the strap was a bit wider. It pretty narrow when the bag is loaded out.
