I’m going to be completely honest: I have never spent much time thinking about the backpack I use until very recently. For the majority of my life, I would get something generally sturdy and unassuming without much thought going into my choice. Years of mediocre backpacks that did nothing more than take my belongings from one place to another had left me without any sense of what I should actually be looking for. The Troubadour Ridge changed all of that.
The Troubadour Ridge has proven to me that there is space for luxury in backpacks that I did not know existed. It is well-designed to fit in a more professional setting and has served me greatly considering how unwilling I am to fully accept adulthood. There are several high-quality backpack brands that offer a number of unique features certainly worth thinking about, however, the Troubadour Ridge is unique among them for a few notable reasons.
One of the biggest differences between the Ridge and other higher-end backpacks is the fact that the Ridge is made of waterproof materials. The exterior, the zippers and the lining are all completely waterproof to prevent any significant damage. This came particularly in handy when I inevitably spilled on it while eating a bowl of cereal.
