I bought a Thule Crossover eight years ago and the zip on it has finally gone. Short of getting a local seamstress to fit a new zip, I think it’s time for a new one, and am a bit tempted by the Thule Crossover 2 30l. Are Thule still good? Is there anything else of the same sort of size that I should be considering?

As other people mentioned, an Osprey. I recently gave away an old shoulder bag by them that I got back in the early 2000s. That’s 20 years ago! Still works, just didn’t need that kind of bag any more. Currently have one of their newer Arcane bags, and so far, it’s been promising after a year.
