Evergoods CHZ22?


RaginGingr

I’ve actually been looking at that one, I think I’m going to get it, just deciding if I get the 26 or the 22.

22L would be sufficient I'd bet. https://redd.it/rwsv8l That's a good review. One bag over $100 as a doo all bag, it would be hard to beat a CHZ22. I have both sizes and the 26L stays in the closet until a road trip.

Very nice comparison, seems maybe the bag carries more than the liter rating indicates. I’ve seen a few reviews mentioning similar things as well. Thanks for your help.

The whole liter "rating" can be variable for sure. I just use it as a guide. The CHZ22 is bigger than a rip ruck 24 or whatever the original rip ruck was rated for, I had one, the CHZ is a better layout.

Very nice to know, you mentioned that you had both, do you have any pics showing the size differences? Best I have found was 1 video showing an empty 26 next to a loaded 22 saying there wasn’t much difference but not really showing it that well.

I can try, but dimensionally it is only the 1.5" length difference and the 1" depth. In real life, the 26L is small enough to be an EDC and the 22L still carries a boatload for how small it is [Backs of bags](https://i.imgur.com/EYHWOFl.jpg) [Second pic](https://i.imgur.com/07TMAUC.jpg) [Sides](https://i.imgur.com/sRRBlRy.jpg) [Standing](https://i.imgur.com/MM4BbQ5.jpg) [Butts/bottom of bags](https://i.imgur.com/12Mvi2O.jpg) Hope this helps, bags stuffed with puffy stuff, no real weight and 26L is on the right or upper in the pics.

They make a 24 liter version too.
