Can you recommend a tool backpack? What is a good tool backpack that will hold up over time? What is a good brand?

I was going to buy MILWAUKEE Ultimate Jobsite Backpack 48-22-8201 for $99.00 at HomeDepot but I found out from product review webpages that the backpack has a tendency to lean forward and it starts falling apart after usage.

I used a Milwaukee for a few years. It finally started having a few seams separate but to be fair I did have it way over loaded. Mine never leaned, that all depends on how you pack it.

The Klien is good. Buy it from a dealer (bought mine through Platt locally) since Home Depot is a little cheaper, but is a pain with the warranty.

Or go all out on a Veto.

Good review here:

And not included in the review, but Crescent recently came out with one that seems to have good feedback.

Klein bags are well made and I wouldn't hesitate on them, but if you really just want to be sure you're buying the best the first time, go Veto Pro Pac. I've had a few of their bags and beat mine up daily. Absolutely top notch.

My local HomeDepot did not have any of the MILWAUKEE Backpacks in store so I could not inspect the build quality. Are all MILWAUKEE Backpack models built like ****?

Does anyone have the Klein Tools 55482 Tool Bag Backpack?

No. Imo mine was pretty good, I just abuses it. It still works perfectly
Fine I just moved on to packout stuff.

No, but I do like that layout and that it's designed to stay standing. I have the standard Klein that both sides lay flat when it's unzipped. Holds a lot of tools, but have some long bit sockets and things that will fall out when open. Also gets everything pretty soaked in the rain/snow when working outside.

Saw this brand on another thread some time back. I added it to a wishlist for the heck of it. Any feedback on this brand? May be a bit high price wise, but could be worth a look.
