Reviews

Handy, stylish travel & everyday bag

"Great value bag which has useful compartments to pack all your travel needs I got this particular bag for holidays as it meets hand luggage dimensions! Easy to travel with rucksack alongside carrying a large suitcase Also have been using this to take to work."

— Anastasia R. (5/5)

We have a few Antler

"We have a few Antler bags now, British company, always preferred. The backpack is wonderful, zipped compartments everywhere, small and light and fits most Airlines, ideal for storage. I’ve been travelling regularly since 1968 at 8 to and from the far east till 1999 with work and definitely the best hand-baggage i’ve had. Still to use it in anger but if like our other cases / bags, sure it will be fine."

— Mark V. (5/5)

Function and Form: the Holy Grail of Backpack Design

"Of course you want functionality from a bag: pockets in the right places, straps that work, that sort of thing. But you also want style. Not ostentatious, "look-at-me" style, but elegant, understated style -- you could say British style. Amazingly, the Antler backpack gives you both. Sounds too good to be true, doesn't it?"

— John P. (5/5)

Sturdy

"SOOOO many pockets and compartments - the main reason I bought them (bought a set for the fam). Gorgeous muted earth colours, and really sturdy construction. Look lovely as a family set. I look forward to forgetting where I put everything. Rather pricey but I figure you get what you pay for, and hopefully it will prove its value and last forever."

— Abi B. (5/5)

Sleek, surprisingly spacious, and built for modern travel

"The Antler Discovery 28L Backpack in Carbon Black is a sleek, highly versatile bag that balances modern aesthetics with serious functionality. Its clever pocket layout and 28L capacity make organizing work essentials and travel gear effortless, even when packed to the brim. Durable, weather-resistant, and incredibly comfortable on the shoulders, it is the ultimate upgrade for daily commuting or weekend getaways."

— Kane R. (5/5)

Good, solid product

"Good design with solid construction that is comfortable to carry. Lots of functional compartments. The water bottle pocket has an popper/clasp which sometimes catches on my bottle when I try to put it in, but that is the only (small) issue that I have encountered after a months use."

— R D. (5/5)

The backpack is a present

"The backpack is a present fpr my granddauter. Sshe loves the numerous compartments and the lovley design. It's very well made."

— Brigitta J. (5/5)

Great bag with 2 minor flaws.

"Overall this is an amazing bag. The quality feels nice and the zips are great. Compartments are very nice also, as I travel a lot I think these are great without the packing cubes FYI. 2 Flaws…. 1) bottle holder in the side is a none stretch fabric so you can’t fit most water bottles in it at all…. 2) The shoulder straps do not have adjustments at the top to bring the top of the bag closer to your shoulders, meaning it can be a little annoying at times. Without these 2 points 5/5 (With them 4. 5)"

Amazing

"★★★★★ Fantastic Backpack – Lightweight, Stylish and Great Value! I recently purchased the Antler Discovery 28L Backpack in Carbon for £98, and I’m absolutely delighted with it! I’m using it as my holiday carry-on bag, and it’s been brilliant. The 28L capacity offers plenty of space for everything I need, but what has impressed me most is how lightweight it feels, even with everything I’ve packed inside. It doesn’t feel bulky or heavy, which makes a real difference when travelling. The Carbon colour looks really smart, and the design is modern, stylish and practical. It’s a great-looking backpack that I’ll happily use for holidays, work and everyday travel. I’ve been so impressed with the Discovery range that I’ve also bought the next two sizes up, both in the Mustard colour, which I absolutely love! It’s such a fantastic colour and really stands out. Clearly, I’m becoming a bit of an Antler fan! At £98, I think this backpack is excellent value for money. It combines style, practicality and comfort really well. A fantastic bag, and one I’m genuinely pleased I bought. Highly recommended!"
