Hesitant To Try It, But Elated That I Did!

I bought this backpack to contain study materials for an exam that will take months to prepare for. After passing that exam, I will have my final exam to study for, which will also take months. I ended up loving the backpack so much but I bought the 22L. After having both sizes, I turned the 27L into my work backpack. The external laptop sleeve is better for work. The extra size means I can pack my supplies, which I top off every morning with the large YETI rambler with my ice water. I still have space at the top to put a sweatshirt at the end of my workday. The front zipper means easy access.

27l Ranchero Is A Winner!!

I’m very happy with my purchase of the 27L Ranchero. It’s sturdy with lots of room but my favorite thing is it stands on it’s own.

Well Made

Good backpack. Sturdy and well made. Love the color black and the zippers are sturdy as well. It sits up by itself when I put it down.

Not Good

Not much room for anything to put inside. Wish I could return

Great Everyday Bag!

Been using this bag as a daily commuter bag! Love it so far!

Built For The Wild Or Not

Bought the 27L Ranchero 2-3 months ago and I've had plenty of time to get acclimated to it before reviewing it. I love it to pieces and would've given it 5 stars but for a few reasons...My only gripe is that the TuffSkin fabric is like denim; hard to break in, but with heaps of use it's slowly starting to give. However, that's also a "gift" about it but for it's amazing quality..and with such stiffness, the bag stands sturdy by itself, but then that also makes the bag poke out a lot and feel too big as an EDC. Even still though, the whole reason i purchased this bag was for the RipZip opening that allows me to quickly access contens inside the bag and it's a serious game changer with its convenience. I bought it in two different color ways, but the Cherry Blossom is hands down my favorite as I appreciate the lighter grey finish, especially on the back padding as well as shoulder straps. If you're iso a dope bag, take a chance on it--it will seriously change the way you #backpack whether you're using it for an EDC or as travel.

Not My Favorite

Not a comfortable backpack to wear, zippers aren't very smooth. Bag size is nice, holds everything in need it to but I wouldn't purchase another one.

Great Commuter Backpack!

I really wanted to give 5 stars for this 27L backpack but my yeti 36oz doesn’t fit in the side pocket. Although I love the material of the side pocket is pretty strong and expandable. So far it hasn’t lost its elasticity.This back pack is super durable, I love the inside compartments and the Tri-zipper system. The backpack are pretty comfortable for everyday commutes. I love the separate compartment for the laptop it fits my 15” MacBook pro with ease. As a side note took it too Hawai’i and it perfectly fit under the seat of a southwest plane.

Yeti Ranchero

I have only used it a few times but I find the bag very comfortable and sits high enough on my back even when fully loaded that it does not dig into my lower bag as some have stated. I think this bag will work for some people and not others. My wife has a very small torso and the bag was not comfortable for her. I love the quality and the look of the bag. Most importantly I love the tri-zip. I am hooked. It is so easy to get what I need out of the bag and not have to dig. I have been using this with packing cubes and a small camera cube. Its been nice to open the bag like a duffel bag to pull out my camera gear or to leave the bag standing and opening the top compartment to get a jacket or small items stacked on top.

Simple And Functional

Size and simplicity are amazing! Even a simple hip strap/support would be great to at least secure the pack better. Shoulder straps are great though.

The Bomb Dot Com

If you’ve been looking everywhere for the perfect bag, stop. Buy this one. Not only is it super durable and the color is beautiful, it’s all around just a great bag. Zippers are in the correct spot and even has a nice spot in the back for my laptop to take back-and-forth to work. So it could be used for travel, hiking, or as your everyday bag.

I own the the Ranchero for 7 months, here is my feedback: + backpack looks great and solid! + very durable! + like, that it stands on its own. - cant fit any bottle i own in the side pockets, so i have to stuff it in the backpack, loosing inner space. - the key carbiner hook is hard to operate with one hand, while holding the backpack. the key ring gets caught on the tip of the carabiner. - top shoulder adjustment straps get loose and the ends just flap around. Need to be connected to the straps, to be more sleek.

A Great And Sturdy Pack

I keep my laptop, drone, notebooks, etc in this pack. As a land agent I needed something tough and this pack delivers. It helps me stay organized and more importantly keeps my gear protected.

Great Bag

I’m primarily using this as a work commuter bag. It fits my laptop, wireless mouse, full size keyboard and all the usual cables along with it. I still have space for a sweater, headphones and a water bottle. It’s great quality. The only thing I’m not happy with is the shoulder strap width. It’s too narrow and it digs into my shoulders when I’m carrying heavier items.
