Mantis 26 Ryggsekk

Nice sized backpack for hiking and carry on travels. Nice sized pockets. Great Quality material

We recently received this bag in the mail. It’s a great bag, but I feel for the price you pay the shoulder straps could be a lot nicer. They are very thin. Time will tell how comfortable they are

Great pack. Enough space to load everything I need Feels bigger than 26 liters.

There hasn’t been a day I haven’t used this bag since I brought it. Fits everything but the kitchen sink

I use this to carry small items while I board and it's perfect! Incredibly well made and very stylish. Highly recommend.

So much room in such a smart design! I bought the Beam collab pack a month ago in New York from the Broadway location. There's so much room, with a very durable outer material. I love the easily accessible zip pocket on the top, as well as the two surprisingly spacious side access pockets. The 24k on the white is so awesome. I wish it had a laptop sleeve (I just use a laptop case instead) and I wish the bottle holders could accommodate 32oz bottles (I just slide my bottle in the side pocket)

Compré esta mochila para usarla en trayectos diarios a mi oficina, tenía grandes expectativas ya que esta es mi tercera mochila Arc´teryx (mi primera Mantis) y esperaba poder sentir la calidad de los materiales a la que ya estoy acostumbrado con mis 2 primeras mochilas de esta marca (Arro 22 y 20). Cuando pienso en Arc´teryx pienso en calidad de materiales y esta Mantis 26 me ha defraudado, las correas se sienten de mala calidad (tienen poco relleno), no siento que se acomode bien en mi espalda, la tela y estructura en general se sienten de mala calidad. Vamos Arc´teryx ustedes pueden mejorarlo! Esperaba mejores materiales y Construccion, la relación precio calidad no es buena. Tengo menos de un mes de tener mi mochila, estas son mis primeras impresiones.

Mantis is really strong.Unable to find things in storage space is well nanueojya is comfortable, too.Laptop can safely carry, too! My nephew at Secondary is trying to take my bag away!

I have been looking for backpacks that can hold my mirrorless camera x100v and the binoculars. This is perfect for that purpose for easy side access swinging the back on each side. Both front side pockets are very spacious so that I can fit my camera easily with the hood on. For those who are concerned about whether it fits Macbook Pro 16 inches, it does fit the MBP 16 inches. However, the sleeves in this bag seem to be designed mostly for a hydration pack, and there is almost no padding. I hope it has some decent padding for the protection. If I have to bring some heavy books with my laptop, I would not use the sleeves to protect it. I would rather use the external laptop sleeves and just put them into the main compartments for protection. If you are looking for a hiking backpack with front side access for a camera or different easy-access things, this is a great pack. If you are looking for an EDC laptop backpack, there are better backpacks out there.

I wanted this bag to be my go-to 2-3 day jet set bag. Based on reviews and features, it was going to be just that. But I have found that it is actually, quite simply, awful to actually have on my back. The straps are dreadful- Arcteryx somehow thought that just adding extra padding to standard backpack straps would cut it. Instead, it just adds bulk and weight and is instantly uncomfortable on my shoulders. I’m admittedly a bigger guy, but the lack of adjustment means that I’m pretty much stuck with limited options here. I have REI brand packs that are more comfortable than this, so it’s really not what I expect from a premium brand. Love everything else Arcteryx does though!

I bought this in September and have used it everyday for university. It stores a tablet, laptop, chargers, and all other things you toss in day to day. It works great and looks great! I personally have taken off the waist belt too (which was very difficult). I took out the plastic frame in the back that makes it more comfortable for everyday use. It’s sturdy but I would say it’s frustrating how far the zippers open at times! Also, if you have heavy items in the small front pocket, it makes the bag look like a sideway U bent on itself. That’s the only complaint I’d have but I just don’t store heavy things there anymore!

Just bought this bag for college and it works great for me because you are able to pack the bag super fully as the zippers go further down the sides than a normal bag. This means that sometimes the front of the bag might weigh itself down and open autonomously sometimes but after a bit of getting used to it’s no big deal. Excellent storage and organization. Water bottle pockets are nice and snug. Overall great.

La qualité chez arcteryx est toujours au rendez vous

This bag has literally thousands of days of use and barely shows signs of wear. It's a classic. Totally capable for day hikes but really shines with the organization to use as an every day carry for school, work, and international trips.

勤務先オフィスのフリーアドレス化に伴い、ノートPCをメインで使用することになったことに加え リモートワーク中心のスタイルになったためにノートPCを持ち運ぶ機会が多くなった。 かといって、手の大きな自分にとってノートPCの“小さなキーボード”を打つのが苦痛なので、 Bluetoothキーボードとトラックボール、そして折畳式のPCスタンドも自分には必須アイテムとなった。 加えて、毎日最低2Lの水を飲む自分にはオフィスのウォーターサーバーで水を補給するためにも 大きめの持ち運び用ボトル（1.5Ｌサイズ）も欠かせない。 それらを持ち運ぶのにちょうど良いデイパックを探していた。 マンティス32も候補だったが、26のサイズでも自分のアイテムが十分収まることがわかった。 コンパクトなのに収納力があり、まさに自分にぴったりのサイズだった。 電車やバスの通勤の時も邪魔にならないサイズ。 また、背面部には軽量のプレートも入っており、背中にぴったりとホールドされる。 左右それぞれのファスナーから小物を出し入れできるポケットはとても重宝しており、 手帳や手袋、ネックウォーマーも取り出しやすい。 上部にある収納からはすぐに財布やキーホルダー、社員証も取り出せる。 ノートPC（MacBook Air）は薄手のクッションカバーに入れたうえで背面部のポケットにぴったり収まる。 メインコンパートメントはチャックのスライド範囲が広いため、 気を付けないと中身がこぼれ出ることになるが、普段から気を付けていれば問題ない。 むしろ、チャックのスライド範囲が広いことによって、 丁寧に荷物を収めることができるというメリットがある。 そして、自分の場合はサイドポケットには飲料水ボトルを入れずに 会社スマホと個人用スマホの両方を入れるようにしている。 （飲料水ボトルを入れるにはちょっとタイトだと個人的に感じます） 飲料水ボトルと弁当はメインコンパートメントに。 個人的には機能性だけでなく、 スタイリッシュなのでとても気に入っている。

I bought this bag in my freshman year of high school and it's served as my only back pack for the past 10 years. I've traveled, hiked, and commuted with this bag and it has held up through plenty of abuse. It's definitely an irregular shape, however I like that the zippers go very low on the bag. It makes it easier to fill it to the brim (if you lay it down completely). In an upright position the low zippers can be annoying and they can come undone unless zipped fully. The water bottle nets on the sides of the bag are slim, choose your water bottle accordingly. However, the quality of this bag is pretty impeccable. I've pushed the zippers to the brink and could've sworn I was on the verge of blowing them out, yet they've persisted. The fabric barely has any signs of wear and is free of any thinning from abrasion. I was looking at maybe buying another in a more subtle color (why I'm on this page), but decided that I might as well keep the old one seeing as it still functions perfectly.

I’ve had this pack for a year now and absolutely love it, except for a couple of flaws. First the good: it’s beautiful, sleek and cool shape. Fabric has a nice quality shine to it, all materials and craftsmanship are top notch. Seams are very well reinforced etc. The organization is also very good, the pockets are well laid out and it holds a lot more that it seems it would. Water bottle pockets are great as they compress to nothing when not in use, maintaining the simple lines, but are fairly large so could hold a lot if you need them to. The elastic fabric of the water bottle pockets seems more durable than most packs. The carry is really good, very comfortable and ergonomic, especially with the frame sheet on. That brings me to one flaw: the sheet has an aluminum stay that gives a very nice contour to the back of the pack, but that same shape makes carrying a laptop or tablet in the “laptop sleeve” (more of a fabric bag with no padding) impossible, as the curve would place stress on the flat electronics if the bag is even moderately full. Fortunately you can take the aluminum stay out and the carry remains comfortable, so it’s not a terrible flaw but good to keep in mind, especially the lack of laptop protection. Second thing, as others note is that the chest strap is way too short, so just get one from another pack with the clip style system or modify this one. Also not a big deal but annoying. Third is that the main compartment opens very low, which would be a good thing if the bag had compression straps to stop the front of the bag from opening and spilling everything over if you open it standing up especially if fully packed out. Again, you can work around it by not opening the main part too much or setting it down to access the main compartment. All in all, these issues are workable because the pack just works so well otherwise. Comfortable, carries well, very light for how strong and well constructed it is, quality materials you can feel, has several pockets that fit a lot so you don’t need to access the main compartment that often, and the pack remains comfortable even with the aluminum stay off, so I definitely recommend buying it if you can live with the imperfections. Having gone through a few dozen packs looking for the perfect one, I can tell you there’s definitely no perfect pack out there, but this one comes pretty close!

Amazingly practical backpack - even the 26 packs loads of space. Was tied between the Blade & the Mantis I use it day to day for urban commute - I carry a 15inch laptop (I think you could even fit a 17 at a push) and have tonnes of space for jacket - shopping bags - light food shopping on the way home etc. nice compartment for small items - stationary, etc. super comfortable and ergonomic. I use other stash compartments for cables charger etc. nice heavy weight nylon on the bottom for increased durability. wouldn't mind seeing the arc logo (from mantis) on the sponge area at the back for increased appeal.
