That time of year again for travelling wondering where is best to pick up a big backpacking style backpack for travelling. I heard namdaemun market is good. Anyone have any other suggestions? How much to these backpacks cost generally?
Thanks. |

Can you really not see that he/she is making a distinction between a backpack for carrying a pair of shoes to the gym and one that you would use to travel around Asia for 6 months? You must be a lot of fun at parties. |

There were several places in Namdaemun last time I was there with a pretty good selection. I didn't look to closely, though. They may be ripoffs. Probably cheap! |

I saw that link to G market for the Osprey bags.
I am sorry. But that bag is on sale at REI for like 150 bucks.
Do what the other self respecting gear heads do here. Go to the
store- try on the gear- then order it to your folks house and have then
send it over. Save yourself....i dunno 250 bucks. |

It was an attempt at humour. You read it in a snarky tone that wasn't intended. |
