Valken Phantom Backpack Staff Report One Minute Review... Valken has recently introduced their Phantom gear bags, cases and backpacks, which include a large rolling gear bag, a travel duffel bag, a travel backpack and an entire line of protective cases that works in conjunction with the gear bags. Let’s have a look at the Phantom Backpack. First of all, picking one of these up you can see and feel the quality and the thoughtfulness of the design. Dual stretch mesh water bottle pockets are probably the first thing you’ll notice. Double stitching and durable mesh ensure these will last, unlike the mass produced back packs you’ll find in big box stores. The Phantom Backpack also provides and external, side- access laptop compartment that can accommodate laptops up to 15 inches in size (which is most common). There’s a nice internal iPad and documents pocket that will hold your device, a notepad, papers and any other standard letter sized documents you may have. The Phantom Backpack has a fleece-lined catch-all/sunglasses pocket that will keep things safe. And one of the nice extras of this backpack is the mobile office organizer which accommodates pens, back up batteries, hard drives, thumb drives and more. All of the main handles and straps are thick, comfortable and durable, as is the entire pack. The Phantom Backpack is finished off with the signature Valken logo.
