The Greenroom136 Rainmaker is a well-built and versatile backpack that does not skimp on function. I have to admit, the customizability options are superb, giving its user the freedom to adapt to their specific needs. It ticks all my boxes, it's made of 1000D Cordura which means it can withstand the hustle and bustle of daily activities, and yes, it is water resistant. Being airline friendly, it's a preferable companion since it is compatible with 100% of airlines. It’s fairly spacious, capable of loading up to 22 liters and carries your 15-inch laptop comfortably. Reviewers have praised its value for money, considering its incredible features.
On the other side of the scale sits the Cabin Zero ADV 32L. A bit lighter than the Greenroom136, it weighs 0.875 pounds but packs an impressively large capacity of 32 liters. It's pretty good for those long hours of constant carrying. Made of Nylon 500 Denier Rip-Stop fabric, it is strong and can resist abrasion to a good degree. Its laptop compartment can fit a 14-inch laptop quite snug, making it an ideal backpack for the tech-savvy. It may not be as airline friendly as the Greenroom136 but 82% compatibility is not quite bad.
