Introduction (Does It Do What It Should)
I beleive that I first found out about Nomatic at CES last January, and like a lot of products that I saw back then, I am only just reviewing them now. This is the travel pack, and I believe that I could do a lot of traveling with it, if I am so inclined.
Now, this is a backpack, but honestly didn’t fully cover it in the video. As it was, I opened up the front, and found quite a bit of pockets there. I am actually told that there “22 purposeful pockets”, and this includes RFID safe storage and hidden compartments. I am told that it is good for one to three day trips.
There is one very efficient pocket on top, and what really makes it great is how expandable it is. With a pull of a zipper, it can go from 20L to 30L, and then when it is expanded, it can unfold horizontally, a feature that I most definitely didn’t show in the video.
In fact, I can really get lost in these zippers. It does help to have some TSA approved fold-down for your laptop. I believe that is also comes with this case made for your sunglasses as well.
What really makes it awesome is how it has these handles on the side that can essentially transform this backpack into a briefcase, and these handles are on both sides. Also on both sides are these magnetic water bottle pockets.
All and all, I would say that this is quite a great deal. You can get it now on the Nomatic website for a price of $349.99.
Facts About The Company
Nomatic was founded in 2014, and apparently was founded to be “A Life On The Move” and “A Life Well Lived”. They were originally crowdfunded, and they they have created some very innovative products for photography, travel, and everyday life.
What Does This Company Make?
I’m seeing all kinds of varieties of backpacks, not to mention travel bags, camera bags, collaspible bags, as well as luggage. There is also apparel, believe it or not. I hope we can review more of what they have.

Maybe I Want It, But Is There Anything Else Like It? Maybe For A Lower Price? Please?
I have reviewed backpacks in the past, but man, nothing like this. Really, I think there is a reason why this backpack is so incredible high-priced. It’s like the Cadillac of backpacks!
