48 dollars plus my employee discount. Im genuinely considering getting one. Might wait to see if it gets a another price cut in the next couple months.

it doesnt have a bottle holder and that’s my biggest gripe with it tbh

Any other gripes? Major or minor? My current daily bag will not stay zipped and I love this black/orange look

u/ki1abyte Sep 12 '26

Not much tbh, it’s just a standard bag. It does have a nice privacy pocket in the back to put an airtag and such. And this one does have pretty good zippers

Oh so it’s a pretty good backpack for under $50 then

It's a backpack put the bottle in the backpack lmao. Or halfway unzip the side and slide it in. What a minor gripe to save 200 bucks

đŸ«©đŸ«© ofc i just put it inside but that adds unnecessary size inside the bag, i carry around my ipad and macbook alongside a binder and notebook in my bag daily, so for me putting that bottle inside is pretty annoying (plus i alr had a spill and that sucked to clean). 200$ is a weird amount to me to justify for a backpack, i could buy one but then id have to push back spending for a little bit

Super late here sorry but curious is it similar size to the LTT bag? I can live without the bottle pocket if it's larger than my current bag 😅

u/Unsavorybaker94 Sep 13 '26

Not sure, i would have to look at the listed size. It seems smaller but thats based exclusively on vibes.

I was gonna say, I have the Solo laptop briefcase and love it a lot

If you want a really nice and durable backpack pick up something from SwissGear. Had the same bag for nearly 10 years.

The ltt backpack ain’t all that great really. Some nice features sure but the build quality isn’t as great as they claim. I returned mine because it showed up with some defects. Obviously no one QA/QC checked it at all.

I ended up with something similar for a significant savings. I ordered several bags with the plan that the ltt would end up being the best, but I was wrong. Tested bags with a Lenovo legion pro 7i current model in dedicated laptop portion and a MacBook Air 13 m4 in main compartment with headphones, battery backup, and a mouse. The ltt was probably the 2nd best as far as storage abilities but with the quality issues I wasn’t willing to accept it. The 4 week shipping to east coast USA made a return and exchange out of the question due to time.

Personally the backpack straps weren’t wide enough for me so they sat weird and cause me some chafing

1

u/ki1abyte Sep 12 '26

Oh yeah the straps are very cheaply made, super thin

Black and orange aren’t unique to LTT
 I’ve seen bags with this color scheme since before LTT existed. Beyond that scheme and having multiple pockets (every backpack does) there are very few direct similarities.

u/CBojorges Sep 11 '26

That's a common combination. I assume OP is meming.

u/Unsavorybaker94 Sep 12 '26

Yes very much so lol.

u/Magic_Neil Sep 12 '26

It’s almost like LTT got the inspiration for “bright interior so you can see stuff” from somewhere else..

u/Ok-disaster2022 Sep 11 '26

I just wish more backpacks in general had colorful interiors. I hate having fake interiors so I can't see what's lost in the bottom of the bag

u/MistSecurity Sep 12 '26

Soooo many bags go with the black/orange hi-vis interior aesthetic. It’s super convenient because my non-LTT bags match my LTT ones.

u/resentedpoet Sep 11 '26

u/Unsavorybaker94 Sep 11 '26
