I recommend Goruck GR2. It meets every requirements you listed and is built like a tank and it looks nice. I use it for work, trips less than three days, and grocery shopping. This is my one backpack for everything and I don’t plan to buy another backpack for the next ten years.

Con: expensive

I went with Osprey Nebula, but I’ve actually seen this recommended a few times on this subreddit but haven’t looked into it until your comment. It looks like a perfect fit! I might have to reconsider once the Nebula comes in. 🤔

Have to be honest tho GR2 is overkill for most situations. Nebula is probably more than enough. It’s not worth it for most people to spend $400 on a backpack, but I tend to buy more backpacks until I have my ultimate backpack so it makes sense for me to drop that kind of money. So far my craze has stopped since I bought my GR2 in June 2021.

Ahhh that makes sense. My husband isn’t too particular, so you’re probably right. Thank you for being honest!
