Disappointing

19 days ago
The quality is atrocious on this pack. Thin straps, cheap thin polyester material, and the zippers get stuck often. Luckily, I returned it within the 30 day return time for a full refund. Go elsewhere if you actually want a quality pack to last you long. Arcteryx just isn't what it used to be.

Great backpack. This is my first backpack in Arcteryx. But I’m surprised to get this back because it’s a good size and really lightweight.

Best Travel Backpack

28 days ago
I mainly use backpacks for travel and I have used 4 different backpacks at this point. The Mantis 26 is the best backpack I've used for travel. I recently went to Japan with this backpack and it checked all my requirements. The main opening is big enough to fit everything we needed for 2 people. It's nice that it can zip down to almost a clam-shell style so it's easier to grab things. The shoulder straps have lots of padding so they were comfortable the whole time I wore it. At first, I thought the plastic interior on the back of the backpack would bother me but it turned out to be a great benefit as it protected my back from anything hard in my backpack that may poke me such as an umbrella. It has 2 water bottle holders which is great since I can carry for 2 people. The side pockets provide extra room to carry more things that don't get in the way of the main pocket. The backpack also looks great. The only small downside I have with this bag is the long straps that hang down.

Arc'teryx Mantis 26L. Best bang for your buck bag

2 months ago
EXCELLENT !every day bag for me especially commuting going to work. Perfectly fits my knife bag and extra shirt on it. I can also put my Arc'teryx jacket inside.. One thing I love the most on these bag are there's a lot compartment features in it that I can put on my some other stuff like head phone and my portable charger. May be soon I'll try to used and try this on a hiking trip. But as of the moment I really like for my work bag. Oh lastly, the strap below is useful for me especially when I'm bringing my work clogs at work I just fine with me. Very ergonomic. Well done ✅👍

Poor quality. The zipper broker after one year

4 months ago
After one year the zipper broke. Arcteryx is not what it used to be. Now, it is just an expensive brand with medium quality. Sad. I still have an old Blade20 (for more than 7 years... and it looks like new). The new ones... do not last.
Q: Pros:
A: Look

Amazing Space In The Main Pocket

4 months ago
What I love most about this backpack is how spacious the main compartment is. In my 26L bag, I was able to easily fit my laptop, lab textbook, iPad, and even a leather coat—without having to force anything in. Despite being fully packed, the exterior still looked sleek and stylish, without any signs of being overstuffed. I also appreciate that the waist straps are removable, and the back panel fits comfortably against my back when I wear it. My only small gripes are that the hydration sleeve is a bit too tight, making it difficult to open wide enough to fit anything, and the main straps, while durable, are a little on the thin side. For reference I am 5 feet 6 inches tall
Q: Pros:
A: Fit, main compartment space, style.
Q: Cons:
A: Thin straps, tight hydration sleeve
