Review on ๐ŸŽ’ Jack Wolfskin Jack Pot Rucksack Black: Unleash Your Adventurous Spirit with Style by Tyler Owens

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent backpack...

This backpack is positioned as Urban/Travel. And I see it as an essential companion for many of today's young adults, as it's specifically designed to carry a 10" to 15" laptop in a detachable, padded compartment that fits inside the main compartment. There is also an additional removable padded compartment for carrying a tablet or other electronic device. In addition, there is a second large compartment, ideal for carrying an extra sweater/jacket. There are two other smaller compartments designed for easy access without undoing the straps housing two large compartments. At the bottom of the backpack there is a special compartment that houses a yellow plastic rain cover. And there are two pockets, one on each side, for water bottles or whatever. The backpack design is strong, durable and long-lasting. The zippers are strong, as are the zippers. The material is dense polyester with a dense line. The back padding is also well thought out and thick. The straps are also soft and thick so as not to dig into the shoulders or other parts of the body. What I found unusual were two additional straps, one at the chest, one at the waist, to pull the device snugly against the body, which is much more common on 60-pound hiking packs. As it says on the Jack Wolfskin card that comes with the backpack: It should "snuggle up" to the body. Marketing. Marketing. Marketing. I also received a Tom Tom fitness watch as part of the Vine program. I found it ideal for my various hikes, measuring distance, time etc. and then displaying the route on a computer overlaying aerial photos. But the watch is clearly "sold" to the youth judging by all the pictures in the ad. However, there is a very real market for "oldies", although we now seem to be the "invisible man" for such products. The same applies to the backpack from Jack Wolfskin. It's unlikely I would carry my 15" backup laptop in it as I prefer a briefcase/sling bag in a business setting. But I could certainly use it for day trips in the RURAL area. A standard wine bottle fits in a water bottle bag; Carry spray or water bottle in another with straps to secure. Bread, cheese and olives can be in one compartment, a video camera for all the wildlife in another, along with other electronic accessories. And of course there has to be Du somewhere, Toy is more often written. Loved the CT review posted June 27, 2018 with plenty of pictures with descriptive overlays. This is the standard for a good review and I felt it was unnecessary to add my own photos. So I thought my best contribution would be to highlight both rural customs and the invisible market of the 'old men'. In terms of value for money, this is ideal at a price point of up to $100. A total of 5 stars plus the Jack Wolfskin backpack.
