Thule Chasm Backpack 26L – Durable and Weather Resistant

Well constructed, light, with the right pockets and compartments to stay organized.

Thule product reference isn’t updated to show current fit. This bag will fit a MacBook Pro 16 even with a full cover, there’s plenty of room to move it in and out of the side access without struggle. Very nice bag.

I will admit Im a bit of a Thule fan girl. I really like their products and dont mind the premium price for premium goods. This backpack is good in the construction. I would like more padding on the shoulder straps. For some reason this backpack feels like it pulls back and down, I dont know if its a problem anyone else would have or my narrow shoulders but it feels somewhat awkward. there is a thin strap in front with a closure that gives an added feel of security. The construction of the pack is top notch and their is ample storage.

This is seriously the nicest backpack I have ever owned. You pay for what you get: solid construction, durability, great fabrics and materials, strong zippers, roominess, and pockets. The straps I would say are more durable than soft. They are still comfortable. If youre looking for a strong hiking/traveling pack, this is definitely worth it!

This is a super cute backpack thats good quality and the perfect size. It seems super durable and I think itll last for a long time.

This backpack is awesome. Waterproof, super comfy even when full, beautiful. I particularly love the little pocket to the front and the opening for the laptop/tablet to the side

Not worth the high price

Excited to try out the Thule Chasm 26L. It was listed as good for bicycling, so I figured it would be good for use on a motorcycle as well. It is a great option for this, didnt flop around while on the road. The straps made it easy to wear it snug- it would have been nice to have somewhere to tuck away the excess strap after cinching it. Pros: Stitching looks durable All smaller/ organizational pockets are micro-fiber lined 3 Pen pockets are full-sized (a bigger deal than youd think-- you can fit an Apple pencil in this! Quick access pocket is just the right size, not too big to lose items but not too small to render useless An elevated laptop sleeve keeps a laptop from getting damaged if the bag is set down too hard on its bottom Cons Only 3 admin pockets in the front compartment 2smaller slip pockets and one larger Bottom of the bag collapse to easily which prevents the bag from standing upright while loading or unloading the bag The only way to set the bag down without it falling over is to set it on its side after removing your water bottle The base of the bag has weather-resistant material that doesnt feel durable enough Overall I like this bag a lot (FAR more than the similar Osprey bags I tried) and will continue to use it.

True to their name, Thule made a very durable backpack which is great for rainy days. * Design * There outer material feels durable and its water resistance. There is a comfortable vertical handle to carry the bag which is a nice feature if you want to carry it by hand or remove it from the overhead bins when air travelling. The straps design means that the bag sits slightly higher then the shoulder line (which might help with easing back pressure). the bag is long and narrow so it wont fit bulky stuff inside. The straps are nice and wide and there is a chest strap. I didnt particularly liked that the main compartment opening is limited by the zipper going only half way (and thats only on one side, the other side is even shorter) There are three main compartments: 1. A small one to keep small stuff like phones (even an iPad mini could fit there). Its soft and will keep your screen safe 2. Mid compartment to keep all kind of stuff in organized pockets and a hook for keys. 3. Main comportment divide to two, one for a laptop (which could also be quick access from a side zipper) and various other larger items that you couldnt fit in the mid section * Functionality * The lack of a lower strap, for me, means that its not very suitable for longer hikes. It will be great for shorter hikes, specially when its wet outside or urban/work travel when its rainy to keep my laptop safe from the elements. Overall Its pretty comfortable on the back when its was about 75% loaded but, again, the long narrow design means that its difficult to put bulky items inside or else easily reach the bottom of the main comportment. Overall Its a great bag for urban and commute and itll keep you valuables safe. Made by Thule means its going to be one durable backpack that will last for quite a while.

I am using this to carry my streaming kit with the laptop, SOLID and best for the bucks. Looks very sturdy
