Fastpack 15

I was searching pack for running between work and home with laptop while listening music from my phone. And now I have found the perfect pack for that! My 15" MBP 2016 fits easily inside the laptop compartment and my iPhone 6 plus into zippered front pocket.

That zippered pocket could be just a little bit wider. With my Griffin Survivor Core phone cover I can just barely get the zipper closed. And its not the larges phone cover available on market. Right side pocket has more volume so I will propably use that for phone.

15" laptop in it's own compartment won't bend around your back as the pack itself would when filled with something more bendable. I have ran only one time with the laptop, 8km / flat and had no problems with anything.

I certainly will use the pack also for adventure / multisport training/competitions.

I love it!

I've owned 3 of the FastPack 20's and have put them through long training runs, commutes, multiple 170-mile stage races, and the Vol State. So, I am no stranger to UD and their amazing products. I'd been looking for a pack that was a little smaller for commutes and for my next Vol State. and I think that this is the best of their fastpack line for that purpose. I've been training in it for a few weeks and here is my assessment:
Qualities:
- I love the zipper that allows easy access to all areas without unrolling the top.
- I love the size and the outside stretch pockets on the back
- The fit is fantastic, as I've come to expect from UD
- The material and the build is very durable and will take a beating
- It will hold a 3 Liter reservoir snugly and without bounce
Wish List:
- I would prefer bottle holder pockets on each strap
- I had to remove the back padding by cutting and resealing the pack, due to chaffing and would like to see this removable as it is in the larger packs
- Gear loops on the back to run a shock cord through for compression would help.
That's it. It's a fine pack and aside from self-supported multi-day stage events, this is my go-to pack for commuting and day-long self-supported runs.
Thanks to UD for the best running packs ever made.

This pack is amazing, with the laptop sleeve I am using it as a school bag, for my commute ride to work and for running. With the front pocket I can have an easy access to all the stuff I normally carry in my pants pockets (phone, keys, wallet) so I no longer need to have pants or long shorts with pockets, from now its all about split shorts!

Thanks UD for this amazing pack!

This pack is incredibly versatile & comfortable! I use it for run commuting, biking to the gym & trekking around town. It cradles my MacBook Air 13" securely. Unlike the other Fastbacks, the front zipper allows quick access to the main compartment while the fold-down top expands storage. The convenient front pockets set UD apart from all other brands...I can grab my phone, wallet, keys & energy bar without removing the pack. When biking, the stretch pockets fit the U-lock perfectly and the reflective details let drivers see me. This has become my "go to" pack for everyday use.

For multi-activity days, this is my go-to pack! Legitimately runnable (it's just a little larger than the PB Adventure vest) the Fastpack 20 is also a great, comfortable pack for hiking, mountain biking, climbing, coffee shop haunting - you name it!

I absolutely love the back two outside power mesh pockets: good to put additional food and water, clothes, and perfect for a second pair of shoes. Bike commuting to work? Pop your work shoes in these pockets and swap your shoes right after you lock your bike up. The pack can hold additional volume to grab some grub from the store when riding home.

The orange is a great, bold color. The left cellphone pocket holds my large cellphone with equally monstrous cellphone protector just fine.

As well as comfortable, this pack is made to LAST, being one of the most bulletproof UD product I've ever had the pleasure of using.
