![]() On the opposite end, there are a few elastic pouches of varying sizes. You could fit a graphing calculator or even a Nintendo Switch in there if you want. Below those two slots are two stretch mesh pockets that are pretty gracious in space. I actually like sliding in documents and folders to keep from crumbling while I commute from work in these slots as well. Any reasonably sized tablet will fit in the second slot as my 11 inch iPad Pro also slid in there without any resistance. I house my 13 inch Macbook Pro there comfortably. The laptop slot is spacious as it can hold up to a 15” device. In what Boundary Supply classifies as the Workspace, a padded laptop and tablet sleeve is held together by a magnetic latch. Going back to the second way to operate the bag, a zipper path along the body of the bag opens up the entire pack like how camera bags operate. I don’t have any of that, but I do keep my tech cables and SSD’s in a bag that fits perfectly into where the official insert would have gone. While you don’t need to utilize the inserts and the cubes the company sells as additional accessories, the bag was clearly designed to capitalize on these things as an organization tool. There are lashes and latches throughout the exterior of the bag for compartment attachments and clips. ![]() Actually, the Errant Pack kind of resembles a rucksack more than a backpack in many ways. If you open the bag this way, you’ll have to dig your arm into the bag like a rucksack. ![]() You technically don’t need to zipper up this area as the magnetic latch can act as a closing method as well. You have to somewhat guide the nubs of the magnets into their groves by leading it under and up. The first is through an overhead zipper that is guarded by two magnetic snap pieces. You can open the bag to get to the contents inside through two ways. While this technically can be used for anything from city commutes, photography, and even for camping, I’ve personally found the functionality of the bag to resemble that of a bag I took backpacking through Europe when I was younger. ![]() Let’s try to characterize what this backpack is at a capacity of 22L, it’s on the bigger side of urban backpacks. ![]() I bought the blue Errant Pack for $219 earlier this year and since then I’ve found myself tethering back and forth between a mix of positives and negatives that keep me from making a clear decision whether I like or dislike this backpack. While I would say that Peak Design is still the king of minimalistic urban backpack design, Boundary Supply has done a good job of capturing that essence as well. Whether it be through Instagram or Facebook Ads, I was drawn to the minimalistic approach that the company’s design philosophy revolves around. The Errant Pack was originally a crowd funded project that helped propel the company into social media darlings. This is the Boundary Supply Errant Pack and here’s my full review nonetheless. After a trip to New York, as well as months with it on my back commuting from home to work, I’ve gotten to understand the ins and the outs of this neat bag. Conducting an extensive search on the internet, I settled on a bag that has a bit of a hipster following behind it. I started wanting to switch back to a backpack form factor instead of a messenger bag and began my search for a suitable companion earlier this year. It’s such a well built and premium feeling bag that it’s been hard to find something that matches that level of excellence. Over the last few years, I’ve been using Peak Design’s Everyday Messenger bag as my daily driver for work. ![]()
