They are both 23L packs, but the Accent can hold a 15.3" PC or 15" MacBook and a 10" tablet, whereas the Accent can only hold a 13" laptop and a 10.1" tablet.
Wow the Accent sounds like quite a deal here. Hold all the things!
I bought one of the Thule backpacks a year or so ago for when I started going back to school. I’ve finished now but still take my backpack with me everywhere. Worth every penny.
@stinks that’s fair. I did roll over one of the clips with my office chair but I didn’t really need it so it probably wasn’t worth THAT penny, but the rest hoo boy
You want to carry a laptop around in a pack that’s quote unquote designed for harsh mountain conditions - let’s face it bruh; you’re climbing the mountain of trying to hook up with your manic pixie dream girl.
@Aspirant_Fool Wait, what? I’ve been to Kimball’s Crater - at least that’s what they told me when I paid the admission, and then were so nice to park my car for me. I remember that because I couldn’t find my house keys or car registration after that. Nice crater, tho.
/giphy nice crater
@tartanknickers It is EXACTLY like a big lunch bag. I own one and rarely use it because of the extreme lack of compartments. My 17" laptop/transportable fits in it nicely though, so when I want to haul that beast around, this is the bag I use. For virtually all other computing or backpacking needs, I use something entirely else.
I will agree that Thule makes great gear though. My EDC is a Thule 13" from a 2017 Meh offering - love that bag. Super well made, and holds my Surface Pro 4 in padded comfort.
@slipperyp whole heartedly agree on that bag, really well built with nice features. The top and side entry laptop sleeve is very clever with nice edge padding
I feel like a Thule every night at precisely this time.
@norman8 It’s pronounced “too-lee” so I’m not quite sure what you’re feeling like.

@jdp Damn, you beat me to it!
@jdp Ok ok, you got us! Fixed!

@vinuash Except one. You’ll never get that penny back.

I can’t believe they are selling backpacks from the Kuiper Belt!

Departer sort of looks like a big lunch bag.

This item just isn’t my bag…
Sorry I’m only interested in one of those new, fashionable person-sized ones.
So where’s this Sausage place?
Departing this deal.
@mike808 I’m not sure where the Accent goes.
Not a bad way to use up that quip coupon code. Definitely going for the Accent as it’s more workplace-appropriate.
Hate to break it to y’all, but it’s actually pronounced
“Thoo-Lee” So maybe we want to “Rulee” the world?
I love it. Tired of the bags getting worn and floppy. This one may not do that so fast.

Noo
Pfft! I’m not going anywhere.
Meh.
I thought the bags of crap were supposed to be on that other site?
Is Meh really selling good looking bags at a decent price? The hangover must still be going. Wow, what a party. Where am I again?
I got this old one and love it

Now I’m wondering if I could use the 24L to carry one of these 23L packs…
@slipperyp That is my go to bag too. Love it.
I would buy another if it comes up again. https://meh.com/forum/topics/thule-24l-backpack
@slipperyp whole heartedly agree on that bag, really well built with nice features. The top and side entry laptop sleeve is very clever with nice edge padding
wait… did you mean Ranier or Rainier?
The smaller one holds… 4-16oz can 4 packs. The larger one can hold more beer. Durable and strong.
It’s not water proof or water resistant, is it? I’m commuting by bus and train, and need something that’ll keep the contents dry.
