Ozuko Backpacks – Potential Drawbacks to Consider
While Ozuko backpacks are generally well-designed and functional, there are a few possible drawbacks to keep in mind:
-
Weight
-
At around 1.69 kg (empty), some models are relatively heavy.
-
Once you add a 15-inch laptop and other gear, the total weight can become uncomfortable for long periods.
-
-
Limited Anti-Theft Features
-
Although some versions are advertised as “anti-theft,” it’s not always clear what this includes.
-
Lockable zippers, RFID protection, or slash-proof materials may not be standard.
-
If you’re traveling in high-theft environments, check the exact model specs before relying on security features.
-
-
Waterproofing Confusion
-
Listings use terms like “waterproof,” “water-resistant,” or “waterproof surface.”
-
Most likely, these bags can handle light rain, but full waterproofing (like during heavy rain or immersion) is not guaranteed unless explicitly stated.
-
-
Bulky Size (on larger models)
-
The larger capacity versions offer more space but may be bulky.
-
This can be a problem in tight or crowded spaces, especially during commutes or air travel.
-
-
Durability of Hardware
-
As with many similar backpacks, zippers, stitching, and strap joints are common stress points.
-
Unless high-quality hardware is used, these areas may wear out over time.
