PROs: - design, modularity, look. CONs: - materials (annoyingly cheap for such a high price range, almost at the same level of bags I get for free when I attend some conferences...); probably the durability (I can expect with those materials the tear & wear will impact it quite soon; the straps on the bottom (you need to make them adjustable so that if you use the bottom pocket to store shoes in, you can tighten the straps to avoid the risk of having a wobbling part of your bag); having to pay for returning a pricy item that you cannot test in any shop is really not fair! Final considerations: the design and idea look great, you've thought it through but unfortunately, you chose to use materials that do not feel nor look as good as this backpack would deserve. This could definitely be in the top3 backpacks on the market, but some of the materials look so cheap that it is definitely not worth the ~230 euros price range. I decided to return it right away before using it to avoid disappointments, but being a proud owner of a first gen Boundary Supply bag (whose features btw do not look too far from the ones of the Hive...), I could immediately spot the cons and possible improvements.

It’s perfect. Had it on a trip in Norway and it was absolutely a good companion

Way better than the Shell. Better back support, better straps, better laptop sleeve. Still don't get why there aren't 2 bottle slots, one on each side, instead of just one. Wished that the fabric on the external "flap" was just a bit stretchier too.

Love this backpack. It stands up by itself- hangs on one shoulder well… stylish!

I was very excited to get the backpack and was waiting for the opportunity to test it. I went on a weekend trip and was happy to take the backpack with me. Anyway my biggest issue is that even with the zipper that adds a bit of wollen to the backpack it’s still not enough room for the rest of the stuff. For example I used the wardrobe and I didn’t really stuff my wardrobe I only needed clothes for 2 days and I couldn’t really fit my laptop. Which was really sad and disappointing. This was actually the main idea of buying this backpack and being able to use it on my trips. I loved the pockets and hidden pockets those were nice but the main reason and the idea of modular backpack was why I bought it in the first place. Now I have a very expensive backpack which I feel like a cannot use in my day to day life and it will only wait for the moment when I go on a trip where I wouldn’t need any of my gadgets(laptops or iPad)cuz they don’t really fit into the backpack

It's a nice bag and does what it says. For what it costs it would be nice if they put some padding in the shoulder straps. I was expecting more for that price. Feels like it was only designed to hold luggage, not to be used as a daily backpack.
