Toshi Pack 20L

I’ve been using this backpack for about a month, and it has met nearly all of my needs: dual side pockets, a thick and soft handle and shoulder straps, a detachable sternum strap, and an internal layout with a decent number of compartments and pockets—more than enough for commuting. When packed properly, the backpack can also stand upright on its own, which is a nice touch.

The only drawback is that the strap adjusters don’t seem to hold the shoulder straps securely in place—they tend to slip, requiring me to readjust the length frequently.

Overall, a great backpack with just a small issue. I’d rate it 4.5 stars.

Just the right amount of space and organization for my regular work daily driver. I have a 16" MacBook pro, but I also like to carry my headphones, notebook, and pens. There's still plenty more room leftover, which definitely makes me feel confident I could use this as a travel pack when the time comes without getting too bulky. Love having water bottle pockets on both sides so I can have a water bottle and umbrella with me.

I love the look and comfort of of the Toshi 20L. It's so classy and sleek looking, and it feels much more comfortable to wear than other more expensive bags I've tried. The 840D nylon looks and feels great, and the padding in the back panel is awesome! I also love the zippers. There are a few things I would like to see improved in terms of functionality though:

1. It's a little light on pockets. I would love to see a 2nd pocket in the main compartment, as well as a pocket at the top of the tech compartment.

2. I wish the zipper on the pocket in the main compartment was at the top of the compartment instead of in the middle. I like to keep my foldable keyboard in there, but I keep having to fiddle with the top side to make it fit around the keyboard. I can't just drop it in and zip it up.

3. I find it most comfortable to place my laptop in the rear-most sleeve of the tech compartment, but I wish that sleeve was slightly more suspended like the other sleeve in that compartment.

4. I'm not a huge fan of the ambidextrous front compartment. It's nice in theory, but it's a small compartment with small openings, and it's kinda hard to fit the things in there that make the most sense to put in there.

5. I don't love the sternum strap. It's really thin, the clap is difficult to align quickly, and I find that I have to keep readjusting it downward because it keeps sliding up on my chest.

6. I wish there was just one dedicated pen pocket in the top front compartment, though I can still hook a pen onto one of the bigger pockets.

7. I find the shoulder straps to be unnecessarily thick and a bit stiff (though not as stiff as another bag I tried). For a bag this size, it just seems unnecessary and takes a little away from the comfort.

Despite these minor annoyances, this a great bag. I just wish it was offered in a slightly bigger size...maybe a 24L or 26L. I hope that's coming soon.

Great EDC bag. Great storage and super comfortable

I have been using the backpack for about a week now but it’s amazing with how compact or expandable it becomes when more storage is needed. The backpack is beautifully designed for easy access

I’m on day 10 of an 11 day, 5 city trip with this bag. It’s very close to prefect. I wish it was 25L because it’s just a little bit too small sometimes. Also, I don’t like how the bag sticks out further at the top of the front when you have anything in the admin pocket, it looks weird. I changed out all the zipper pulls because the original ones were too small and I kept grabbing the wrong ones. I’m a very petite person and thought the wide straps were going to be a problem but so far so good.
