As good as it gets for an Every Day Carry Pack
Beautifully sleek minimalist backpack that fits seamlessly in a boardroom and on the trail. The straps are incredibly thin, even more so than even the Nomin V2 (which I also own) yet strong as a harness. Material look and feel premium, particularly the black colorway - the matt material matches the texture and tone of the zippers, giving it a monolithic appearance. The main compartment is spacious, with 3 small organizer pouches, where the only complaint would be the pouch material being a flexible mesh material that feels relatively flimsy. Rear compartment fits a 16" laptop well, which does not need to be fitted within the mesh compartment, which I believe was designed to fit paper documents instead. There are two separate thin padding at the back that helps with comfort and minor airflow. Overall, a worthy success to the legendary Nomin pack

Unique
Really great looking EDC backpack. Comfortable straps. The material in black looks like leather. Fits my 16" macbook pro just fine. The clamshell is very functional. Holds it's shape when empty.

The better version of Nomin
Sleek looking backpack with tons of space and minimum weight. So many improvements from the previous generations of Nomin: The bag retains its shape even when not packed. Laptop accessibility finally at the top (vs. on the side), and don’t share the same zipper as the small accessory compartment anymore. Padding on back. So far the new material makes the black version no longer a dirt magnetic. Highly recommend!

Water holders
Not having water bottle pockets on the sides is a big deal cause I tried putting water inside the bag and it wet everything in the bag smh
arcteryx.com response
Hello Jay jay, thank you for sharing your experience with the Anodic Backpack. The side bottle pockets are intentionally removed to keep the silhouette clean and streamlined, but we understand how important external storage can be—especially when carrying water inside the main compartment leads to leaks or damp gear. Your feedback highlights a real usability gap for certain activities, and it’s helpful for our Product team as they continue refining how our packs balance minimalism with everyday function.
