KORIN ClickPack X - Superior Minimalist, Functional & Anti-theft Backpack

The closing mechanism literally broke the first minute. The quality of the rest of the backpack is good, however, I would expect more given the price. Find something better.

During the first use, the main closing device broke while traveling from US to Europe when going through security. Kind of defeats the whole purpose of having an anti-theft bag.

I've lived abroad as a digital nomad for 4 years and used this backpack for 6 months.Pros:- The zippers lock so you're never concerned in public places about pick pockets- The cable lock is awesome for places like the beach or a coffee shop if you want to leave your bag unattended for a bit without worriesCons:- Much more expensive that past anti-theft backpacks (compare $40 to $150), but those didn't have the cable locking feature, though with a small lock you can still achieve this- It's really really really small- The strap is already fraying after 6 months, I've had others for over a year with no issues- The wire end of the cable lock is fraying and has stabbed my finger badly a few times- The flap does not close (doesn't have enough give to it) when the bag is fully loaded up for the dayIn the end I would not buy again unless they offered a larger pack, upgraded their stitching methods and made some other small tweaks. They have put a lot more thought into their bag than others, and I hope they take a cue from Elon to obsess about their product.. because they're on a good path, it just needs a few more cycles of engineering feedback to improve it from it's current form.
