The GR1 is a pretty simple bag. The features and organizational design are straightforward. What GORUCK is known for (hardcore durability) is definitely reflected in the bag. This bag would be best for someone who isn’t looking for a hundred features...
GR1 - GORUCK
You can use the GR2 for EDC (work, gym, commuting, etc), but it’s a little bulkier than you might want. If EDC is your primary concern for your GORUCK sack, the GR1 is less cumbersome and lighter weight (and still has a secure laptop compartment). GO...
GR2 - Cordura - GORUCK
This is a heavy duty, solid backpack with quality materials and a very high manufacturing standard which I would expect from Tom Bihn. The exterior of the pack is made from ultralight 400d Halycon and 420d ripstop nylon and ballistic nylon material, ...

Civic Half Zip 26L | The Classic Daybag Elevated - evergoods
I have the two versions. The first one was great. The tanker v2 one was ok but I noticed some fraying inside the pack after a number of months. I'm still considering the V3 version though because this pack is very functional and great for the price.
The first mystery ranch pack I had was the UA21 in the wax canvas I ordered from Japan. I loved the quality and how conformable the straps are. This set off my next purchases from the brannd.

Slings
I just wanted to try. This one caught my attention and decided to buy it. The organization was great, but I I wasn't too used to its shoulder stap. My daughter now uses it.
Bravo Tote - ALPAKA
I discovered Defy from the carry forums and decided to get the insidious junior. It's a bit pricey for a small sling, but It's worth every penny. Build quality is amazing. This is still my favorite sling for weekend walks around Singapore.

Honestly, this sling has not seen much use because of the other great slings I have. Great quality like other evergoods products.

AON has always got me interested, but I found their backpacks too bulky/big for office use. I'm glad they had this sling. Great quality. I use this from time to time.
Alpha One Niner, CHIO-X Bag
the first Alpaka sling I got. During this time I was looking for an x-pac sling. The pack was too small for my weekend use ( Your mileage might vary). I normally use this for short errands where I dump the contents of my pockets.
