Does anyone use them yet?

To be honest, I never really thought about how important a bag is in everyday city life. Until I started moving around the city more by bike and electric scooter, I thought that a regular backpack from the university would do. But after a couple of weeks of constant travel, I realized that it lacked convenience, access to things and protection from the weather. I recently came across the TechwearChest line of bags and now I’m wondering: are they really worth the money? Does anyone use them yet? I’m especially interested in how practical they are in everyday life, and not just in Instagram photos.

Yes, I just switched to https://blackout-techwear.co.uk/collections/techwear-chest-bags about three months ago, I can share a little personal impressions. I work in IT and every day I move around the city between coworking spaces, coffee shops and meetings. And for this format of life, these bags really made my life easier. Firstly, the main thing I latched on to was the location of the pockets. I have the UrbanShift V2 model, and it has very convenient access to the most necessary things: keys, headphones, bank cards - everything is quickly accessible. Plus, you don’t need to take off the bag to get something from the main compartment - it really saves when you are standing in the subway or on an escalator. Secondly, the moisture protection is just top notch. More than once I got caught in an unexpected downpour, and everything inside remained dry. I even once carried a laptop with me in the rain - I was terribly worried, but in vain, everything is fine. The water-repellent material is not just for show, it really works. The third point is style. Well, it depends on the person, of course, but I really liked this techno-aesthetics. Especially if you wear something monochrome or like minimalism. I would say that it is like an iPhone in the world of bags: like "just a bag", but with a bunch of little things that make you happy every day.

An interesting topic has come up. I don't use TechwearChest specifically, but I've recently started to notice how important such details are in the hustle and bustle of the city. I often run errands with a waist bag, but I'm thinking about something more functional. Especially after I dropped my phone once while fishing it out of the depths of my backpack on the go. Perhaps it's worth considering options in this style.
