Vantage Endless Promise 20L Backpack

Beautifully functional. Functionally beautiful.

I’m a remote worker and this bag has been great carrying my work gear to various coffee shops. Sits snug and comfortable on my shoulders. Love the color and the compartments for organizing all my gadgets. I know this isn’t what most people will be considering when purchasing the Vantage, but I find the versatility is a big factor in that it can double as an urban bag as well as for the outdoors.

Outstanding Backpack

I have been using the Vantage 20L as my commuting to work backpack, and it is everything that I need in a backpack. It organizes and protects all my work essentials and looks good on the train, street, and in the office.

Killer bag!

Hands down the coolest daypack / citypack I've ever owned. Do I wish the zipper went down a bit further? Sure, but who cares? Amazing design and attention to detail. It feels incredible to wear. The straps are beautiful. The fabric is clutch. It stands up by itself! And the Endless Promise is the real deal. Great work, NEMO!

My daily go-to bag

This bag exceeds all of my needs. Everything I throw into it fits perfectly as though it was built specifically for me (I like to think that it was). It carries very comfortably and is also easy to stow in various locations due to its compact size. Keep up the good work Nemo! You never disappoint!

Well thought, a bit heavy

Nice bag, a bit heavy though. Zippers kind of hide and cannot been seen very easily as well as the strap hook. Good commuting back though

Excellent daily commuter, great weekend carry-on!

The Vantage 20L has completely replaced my old commuter bag. It's a good looking bag with smart organization to keep my laptop and essentials tidy. I live in the PNW, so the tough, water-resistant fabric is a lifesaver – my stuff stays bone dry regardless of the weather. Plus, I love knowing this whole bag is made with recycled materials. But what really sold me is the surprising capacity. At first, I thought it might be too small for weekend adventures. Yet, it easily handles a change of clothes, tech gear, and even some snacks for a quick trip. The comfy straps and that sweat-wicking material are a game-changer, especially when I'm out exploring – you barely notice you're carrying it. I've used it cycling 10+ miles at a time, and worn it scrambling up a cliffside. Incredibly versatile.

100 pros, 2 cons

Almost there. I’m a huge fan of this pack and what NEMO is doing with their endless promise line, however, there are a couple things i’ve noticed while using this pack so far. First of all, it feels a bit narrow, meaning the lower part of the shoulder straps sit right against my side, which is noticeable but not yet uncomfortable. Secondly, when it have it packed with my work stuff, it feels a bit like it’s wanting to pull me backward a tiny bit. May just need to get used to it, as i’d rather support nemo and endless promise than the other guys if possible.

Great compact bag!

I love this bag. I've barely used it yet, and I'm already very impressed with the material and craftsmanship quality. It has the perfect number of pockets, and my laptop fits very securely. I love that the laptop is in the center of the bag and not next to my back when I wear it. I am looking forward to taking this on trips and having a compact carry on when I fly.

Great commuter bag!

Familiarity:

I've put it through the wringer

There are so many organizational pockets and storage options in this bag! I also love the location of the laptop sleeve so it does not rest directly on your back. The shoulder straps are very comfortable and breathable. The front stowage area is expandable the easy to stash my water bottle and an extra layer.
