After searching for casual urban laptop backpacks under $100 CAD, I ended up between these two backpacks. I initially settled on the Fjallraven Raven 28, but it's over $100 and the design doesn't look as good IRL so I'm thinking of returning it unused.
Patagonia Arbor Classic Pack 25L in khaki ($94 CAD total) vs Timbuk2 Rogue ($89 CAD total, color doesn't matter)
At only a $5 difference between the two, it makes it pretty hard to choose. I feel like the Patagonia Arbor Classic Pack looks better, but its availability is kinda limited. What I mean is that only the khaki version is on sale on Patagonia's website for $50 off, but they cost $15 for international shipping from Nevada, USA to Canada. The Timbuk2 Rogue is regular priced in comparison, no discounts. I can get the Timbuk2 off Amazon, or pay for a $5 co-op membership from MEC and get it there immediately.
Looks like both brands are pretty well regarded on BIFL, any thoughts?
