“It’s more than I expected. I use teck porch everyday with or without Shell All Black. I don’t need to move all small things because of Magnetic system. When I open the Shell from the top it’s difficult to see the inside well... I solved the problem with small “inside bag light”. Yes, I can recommend this Shell All Black to my friends.”

Thanks for the message Yukiko! With this, it will be easier to access your smaller items!

“The backpack is a sturdy piece of kit, I particularly like the clip-on toilet bag for easy access; however, the wardrobe system, whilst also well made, is too heavy for backpacking which kinda defeats the purpose.”

Hello Tommy! Thanks for your feedback! We're working on this matter, and our Product Team is looking into other materials that are lighter but that would still keep up with the expected quality and the performance of the Backpack.

“The bag is very well made and I ordered it because of the organizing insert. However, the insert is heavier than expected and I hope it won't affect the overall weight of the pack when it is full. I also can't remember all the options available for this bag and don't recall what the four "posts" on the front of the bag are to be used for. However, I like the overall design & accessibility of the bag.”

Hello Pearl! Thanks for the feedback! We're working on making the backpack and the wardrobe system to be lighter. As per the 4 buttons in front of the backpack, it is designed for the Accessories, like the Toiletry pouch and the Tech pouch to be attached here. You'll be able to check them out again in the near future, as we're working on having it available individually on the webpage soon.

“It's an amazing backpack, super comfortable and finally a bag that makes accessing your belongings really easy. I love that you can fully unzip the entire bag as opposed to digging through a small opening to get to the bottom. The only criticism I have is price, I would love to have had the shower bag included but it's like $78 which is really punchy.”

“The wardrobe system barley fits inside the backpack. Even when less than 40%-60% of the wardrobe compartments being used the bag strains to zip up around the sides. When the wardrobe is out it is fantastic and helps with organization. A dirtly clothing pouch that is attached to the bottom of the wardrobe would be great. The bag itself feels great and fits well. I'm a 5'4", strong shoulder weightlifter woman and it is extremely comfortable to wear. Still waiting to see how hot the padding gets in warmer temperatures. Hip belt works great, chest strap is fantastic, and the adjustability of the pack is wonderful and simplistic. Overall storage space is great when not using the wardrobe; I recommend compression cubes as a replacement. I'm looking forward to putting more trail time in with this pack. I'm just unsure is the wardrobe has room in my grear setup... It's great for organizing but again... Takes up A LOT of pack space even when compressed down.”

Hey James! Thanks for your message, we're sure you'll enjoy these travels with the Shell Backpack

“Wish the plastic was a little more hefty. Notably the clasp buckles and the 4 circular plastic pieces in the front. They scratch easily and feel a little cheap”
