Daily 3.0

Great bag, but the floppiness and dangling have room for improvement, especially the chest strap. I've wrapped the chest strap in a way that works for me, but Minaal charges its customers a premium for its minimal, clean aesthetic. At version 3.0, It’s not delivering. When you charge customers nearly $300 for a small daily carry backpack, you've set a high bar for yourself.

I got the Daily 3.0 for my trip to Colombia and it was better than expected. I used it to hold clothes and personal items. Although it looks slim, it had more room than expected. I took it to the jungle of Minca and the historic city of Cartagena - it was a perfect bag for both trips.

Big fan! Take this bag everywhere—literally. It’s my work bag (I am military and carry too much to base everyday) & travel bag when I go overseas (perfect for weight restrictions and backpacking). Love the hidden pocket compartments so thieves don’t take my passport. I love the load bearing aspect of the bag as well and I have had this bag for 4 years and the material is still almost like new (no joke—see photos of the “legacy” bag). I bought the cubes too cause it keeps me organized and if I need to get to something quickly I can (lots of hustle and bustle shopping in overseas markets). Can go on and on with positive things to say about this gear—invest in your gear and your back will thank you later fam! 10/10, thanks Minaal.

I went through several laptop bags before I found the Minaal. It's absolutely the best bag I've ever owned. It looks great, it feels great, and it lasts through anything. I love the suspended laptop holder - no longer need to travel with a case for my laptop.

A premium bag at a premium price. It feels great, looks great, and is a joy to use. It checked all of my personal boxes when it came to a backpack for travel whether it be for a day or for a few weeks.

The zippers are light and... Zippy. The seams and construction feel solid. The straps are comfy. The material feels strong yet light. The handle on the side was a feature I didn't expect to use but it's actually very convenient. The features of this bag are understated and intuitive, it's like they're not there until you need them, which I think is just awesome.

At 21 liters this bag is large enough to fit a 16" laptop, but small enough to not look like I'm carrying very much. In the future I plan to travel internationally with this bag as my only bag. After packing it out and testing how much I could fit, I was surprised at how much space this bag seems to have. Experienced onebaggers will like this one.

Some cons: the interior water bottle pocket is an interesting idea but I find it not to be super useful personally. I feel similarly about the way the rain cover is built into the bottom of the pack. It would be cool to see a version of this backpack that is built more water resistant so it wouldn't need the rain fly.

Really love this pack and I hope to go out and use it a lot more when it is safe to do so.

Loving it so far. Looking forward to the 4.0 as only minor improvements are needed for this to be the perfect bag. With that said I searched through reviews for weeks before deciding on this backpack and I'm happy with my decision.

I had a few emails back and forth with Maria regarding the July deal and I have to say Minaal's customer service reminds me of what customer service used to mean. Great company and I wish you guys much future success.

Water bottle holder inside makes no sense. Need more outside pockets.

My son is a heavy internet user and is constantly searching for things—skiing gear, gym equipment, car supplies, baby items, things for the house, work supplies—you name it. He recommended some backpacks to me since mine was heavy and not very stylish. I was looking for something lightweight, durable, and stylish that would also prevent me from carrying extra weight on top of my laptop and iPad, which I always have with me. Minaal was the perfect solution: practical, lightweight, stylish, with plenty of storage compartments, and durable. I'm thrilled with it.

I switched to this bag from a GoRuck bag because I needed a bag that could comfortably secure and carry two 16-inch laptops. I've had it now for around a year and use it daily. This bag suspends a 16" Lenovo, a 16" MacBook Pro, a 12.9 iPad Pro, and a Supernote Manta all in the back section, along with their chargers, travel dock, and assorted cables. In the front, I carry my Bose QuietComfort headphones, a large non-minaal tech bag, my Black Ember EDC bag, and a 20oz Hydro Flask.

Heavy as hell, but relatively comfortable wearing for upwards of an hour, haven't tried it longer. If you're on the fence, it's time to take the plunge and buy one. So far, the build quality has been excellent, with no zipper issues, blemishes in the fabric, or broken straps.

Highly recommended bag as it is very comfortable and practical for use as a daily bag.

I love the convertibility of this bag. Works great as a backpack for around town, works great as a crossbody or underseat pal, the problem is the shoulder strap system. You need to buy a dedicated minaal peripheral strap to make it work. That sucks. And the minaal strap sucks too because it has two strap adjustments cutting down the flexibility of the strap. I really and truly hate this "design decision". Feels like a money grab forcing customers to buy an inferior shoulder strap.

Compact, yet holds a lot of stuff. This was a perfect pack for my work trips.

I travel all the time with two laptops and needed to keep them safe. The backpack does exactly that and more, while also looking well.

I truly believe the the Minaal daily is one of the best bags I've ever used. I use for work, day trips, holidays... it is perfect for every situation. The 3.0 has improved from the previous version but at the same time keeping that wonderful mix between cool style and functionality. I am in love with this bag and by looking at the material, it will last a long time. Great work guys!

Excellent — unique, really — hybrid backpack/briefcase/messenger bag. Excellent design, extremely comfortable. Screams thoughtfulness and quality.

It looks great as a backpack and shoulder bag. Stealthy look. Nobody would expect expensive hardware.

Great quality!

Love my new bag so much!! My new everyday carry!!

Love the look of this bag and functionality. Works both in professional and personal settings.

Recently I have been doing a lot more traveling with work and it was becoming clear that my old backpack just wasn't up to it anymore. I found Minaal through some YouTube reviews and thought I'd check them out and I was not disappointed.

Everything from the slick website and product selection (I love the simple, clear product lines and it was obvious which bag was right for my needs) all the way through ordering, tracking, receiving and most important using the actual bag itself has been outstanding.

It is clear this bag has been designed with purpose, everything on it just makes sense, the look, feel and where all the pockets and compartment are. It feels really durable and well-made and it looks super professional while being really practical.

If I wasn't obvious I can't recommend Minaal enough!

I got my first Minaal daily bag as a team gift at work. I liked it so much I bought every single thing they make. With the 3.0 upgrade, I finally decided it was time to replace the old bag. I wanted to be lint-free (and corporate logo-free). Everything important is the same as the 2.0, plus a couple annoyances subtracted, and a nifty hidden pocket added. The only thing I’d change is making the bottle holder a little more elastic or capacious.

This has been my goto backpack for years. I’m, pleasantly surprised with the upgraded zippers. Much smoother operation.

This is the first high end backpack I have ever bought myself and I really love it. Just enough pockets to stay organized but not so many I can't find something. I especially love that it can carry two laptops.

I was searching for a backpack that I could use to carry my stuff to the office and a bag that I could utilize while traveling as a 'destination bag.' For this purpose, the Daily 3.0 is nearly perfect. When the bag is empty, it lays flat, and I can pack it in my checked-in luggage and use it once I arrive at the destination (when I don't use it as my personal item). On a day-to-day basis, it easily accommodates all my daily essentials, and combined with the Shoulder Sling, it transforms into a great briefcase. I really like this bag; my only wish would be for a lighter interior color, a reorganized admin panel, and a better water bottle solution (for example, the solution from Fyro looks very promising and could perhaps be adapted to this bag as well?). But all these issues are only minor nitpicks and will definitely be back if there is a 4.0 especially after the lovely support from the customer support/ member support.

Daily 3.0 Bag

I’ve had the Carry-On 2.0 since 2017 and it’s held up incredibly well on adventures around the globe. The business bundle (Daily 3.0) is an extension of that for smaller hops. The purposefulness of the design is appreciated more and more as I use the gear. It’s built to last, it has what you need, and it stays out of the way. Thank y’all :3.
