My old toolbag is pretty well toast and the other day I saw a guy working with a backpack and thought that was an interesting idea. Anyone using a tool backpack? Any feedback? Brands? Comfortable? How long do they hold up to the everyday grind?

I had the tool backpack. it was ok i guess, not waterproof so you have to be careful where you sit it down, i didn't like flipping between the sections to find what i needed, and since you can put so much inside it, you will grow to hate the weight.. i love my veto

veto pro pack rule! i havent lost a tool in months! and everything is where i left it and i dont have to worry about any tool falling out when im climbing a ladder I have seen the back pack version of something, kinda cool but i dont know what brand makes it. Veto would be the only option for me any ways.

somebody recommended here a tool backpack sold by Lowes, I picked one for $50, been using it for a year and so far I'm very happy with it. Thinking about grabbing another one just in case they discontinue it.

One of my guys picked up a CLC version of the backpack at Johnstone's at the beginning of winter. He seems to like it. I think that he sprayed the bottom with Camp-Dry waterproofing spray to help out the bottom of it when working on MUA units on snowy roofs.

I prefer cantilever tool boxes.
