Love this; soft, malleable, and so thin! Very happy with this, I just wish it had compression.

I have been using this backpack daily for work and short trips, and it has exceeded my expectations. The build quality feels premium, the laptop compartment is well padded, and the expansion makes it easy to pack clothes for a weekend. The straps are comfortable even when the bag is full. Highly recommended for anyone who wants one bag for office and travel. ❤️

Needed a backpack solution for my everyday gear (laptop / camera / notebook / headphones) and with the possibility of adding the Gym gear… this solves it! Great as well for a 5 day casual trip!

The wait was worth it

Best EDC I have ever used. Functional, not too complicated, no wasted space, travels well in airport.

The Black Ember Forge 30 is an expandable, premium urban pack designed to bridge the gap between everyday tech carry and short-trip travel. It’s part of Black Ember’s flagship Forge line — known for high-end materials, minimalist design, and a modular carry philosophy.

These fit my needs, nice to have.

Thank you! Quality is perfect 👌 Love it

Love the tote. One suggestion, please put the carry-on connecting strap on the other side. The open side pocket interferes with removal of the bag from the carry-on handle as its flap can open and stick on the handle.

Fast shipping great products

I bought this boarding kit for short trips and daily carry, and it exceeded my expectations. Build quality is solid, stitching looks clean, and the compartments are thoughtfully laid out for chargers, cables, and toiletries. The handle is comfortable and the bag fits easily in overhead bins or under the seat.

Ordering was a breeze and shipping was on time. A suggestion is to not print the logo on the box because porch pirates are in the rise.

I own many higher end bags and dragged my feet on purchasing this bag. Decided to buy during Black Friday week. This bag is very rich in storage and the capability to expand to 30 liters is comforting. The materials are top quality. The only issues I have experienced is how difficult it was to thread the anchors through the webbing with the compression straps and sometimes the magnetic buckles come undone. If you are in the market for a great edc and travel bag, give this bag a try.

Love my tote bag. Have been using it for about a year. One suggestion - move the carry on stroller attachment strap to the other side. The pocket on the current side folds outwards and prevents single hand removal of the tote from the carry on.

The clean modern aesthetics and premium black waterproof textile feels great.

Love this bag - so slick

Overall, it has exceeded my expectations and has given me a very versatile briefcase/ backpack that both looks and functions extremely well. My only wish is that the inside was more firm to allow it to stand upright like a standard briefcase.

unbelievable quality as always!
