Hi, I need to get a new backpack, I have the following requirements:
1. It must be machine washable. I know sometimes this is counterproductive to keeping something for life, but for me this is a non negotiable.
2. Large enough to carry a secondary drawstring bag inside it, that would contain Blundstone boots - not that large a size - EU 39/UK 6/US Men’s 6.5 approx
3. Have a laptop sleeve which would provide some protection for a laptop (as opposed to those flimsy laptop sleeves you sometimes see) I appreciate that it wouldn’t be as protective as an actual laptop bag of course.
4. Be around the 30L mark - I am not that tall so don’t want a backpack that will swamp me.
Anyone have any recommendations? I liked the look of the Jansports but the suede bottom would be no good I assume. Anyone have experience with north face ones? #lifestyle
