      I do not currently have any of the three bags you mention... but I do have an MCB and perhaps by virtue of the shape and use of space...or sheer magic...I'd say the Icon holds a bit more. Hard to explain...it's a different bag...that does what it does remarkably well. Really, the origami-osity of all TB designs is astounding to me...To understand so clearly and design so particularly that the carrier can feel like they have a bag that will carry what they need in a remarkably maximally spacious and tidy way and at the same time look so darn cool.

      How would you compare the volume of the Icon with TB other zippered shoulder bags like the Packing Cube Shoulder Bag or the Daylight Briefcase? Even a SBC size and volume comparison would be really useful.

      While I use the FJN for journaling during the year, I need to move its content when it is full, usually at the 6 month mark or later and certainly at the end of the year.

      Some years, the volume amounts to a really big paperback, much too thick to fit into my previous setup of a folded Large OP. TB small shoulder bags to the rescue, it seems.

              That is a beautiful color choice for the Pick-Up Truck. I just ordered one in Burnt Orange.
              I feel like it's such a good stay-at-home bag.
              And that dog is such a poser!

                I was excited to receive my pre-ordered Guide's Edition Synik 22 in Ursa. I'm seriously considering hanging it on the living room wall near my door as an optimistic sign of things to come, for when this pandemic is over.

                It's more beautiful than I'd anticipated. I love the details, including the coyote-colored o-rings. It goes well with the Burnt Orange pouch I ordered alongside it.

                It's too nice to be used solely for commuting. I've made a pledge to myself that I'll start hiking with it once it's safe to do so; maybe even now if I can find out about local trails that are not too crowded, which can be an issue here in Rhode Island.

                    I wish I could've afforded the synik 30 in the same colour to have both S22 and S30!! Im in LOVE with constellation! Shame I can't test any of this out for the foreseeable future (I don't hike -I just like guides editions lol!) Click image for larger version

                        Such a beautiful set! Is that a small or large Snake Charmer?

                          I haven’t seen the all coyote ge get much attention. I think the new colors were more popular on this run but I’d been waiting so long for this one that I wasn’t going to get anything else! That said, I’ve got my fingers crossed there’s another ge production run later because I love wilderness.

                            That is the small snake charmer in blue :D Got everything to be able to fit in the S22.

                              Siblings! Finally got a look at my new Mini Yeoman today and I love it. I’m glad I ordered another in Steel.

                                This is what an awesome Synapse 19, a camera, two speed lights, and boredom from being under mandatory shelter in place from Covid19 produce. Click image for larger version
