Review on Nelson-Rigg Black/Grey Hurricane Waterproof Backpack/Tail Pack by Jimmy Bhat

Revainrating 4 out of 5

pocket on the back.

Overall this is an amazing backpack. It's big, comfortable to wear, very durable and extremely waterproof. The included mounting straps are also a big bonus. I only have 2 complaints. The first little thing: there is almost no organization, it's just a large 30-liter cavity with a negligent laptop sleeve (there is one, but it doesn't protect your laptop in any way) and some kind of internal spider web. in case you want to do some DIY organization. At least I would like to see a keychain. Anyway, it's just a big black hole. Which brings me to my only other complaint: it's just a big black hole. For a company that seems to pride themselves on their yellow accents, I can't believe nobody suggested making the inside of the bag yellow! Basically you need a flashlight to find anything in it. All in all, you can't find a bag that's this versatile, durable, or waterproof without spending a LOT more money. Just plan to bring your own internal organization, including a padded laptop sleeve (in case you are traveling with your laptop). Give me the yellow interior, lanyard and maybe a small inside pocket on the top of the bag (for small items that get lost at the bottom of the bag) and I'll give it 5 stars. So close to the perfect Nelson rig. So close.
