Omg, the back is really fantastic, where did u get it? and how much is it?

Hi,

Well actually you can walk into any major NIKE retailer in KL and they should have, but thats if its not sold out yet. This used to be a really limited bag. NIKE EPIC 2 had only 4-5 bags in Msia in 2003-2004. This one came with a bigger stock.

I think your best bet is to try out AL-Ikhsan Sports Store in KL....Nike Shops have them too but sell them more expensive at RM599. Al-Ikhsan sells them cheaper. Make sure you check the condition of the bags as they have limited units and a lot of the ones left are the display units which will be full of lines/scratches and creases. Funny thing is that I got mine in the Restoran Jejantas AL-Ikhsan Store on the North-South plus highway near Malacca . I got mine for little under RM500.

Seen one at midvalley not too long ago. But don't you guys think its a tad too expensive for a laptop bag?

Yeah, but if you buy it at the release price.....

wow...
army's bag...
ready for combat!!!

very nice design but the colour and pattern lok like turtle shell



is this for the notebook?

Not only looks like, it actually IS a hard shell exterior.

Yeah, its for notebooks and other stuffs....A Lot of pockets and compartments in there. The skin is waterproof and padded well. Adjustable straps and hip contact pads for weight managements. You can carry heavy things in this and your shoulders don't feel the strain...

I Admit the colours are a bit dodgy but its really very nice in the flesh. The turtle look is many due to the camera angle.....

Other Colour types not available here.....

Yeah it's the same as mine... welcome to the club... hehehe...
I thought u got the new model... somebody told me it's out... the price even higher this time... RM700++... being an epic fan, i might just get it too...

p/s: errr... regarding our NIKE EPIC GRAPHIC, does it actually comes with any warranty??? because the tag only says valid in America only...

RM700? Whoa I thought only Nike basketball shoes reach that price? Anyway I haven't heard about the new one. Even NIKE EPIC 2 hasn't come to Msia in the 2nd release but it does look a bit sissyfied compared to the EPIC GRAPHIC.

Anyway I've scouted for new ones and they aren't any but NIKE has made some new Lappy BackpackS with the same concept of weight management like the EPIC. It looks really nice and lighter than the EPIC as it doesn';t have the hard shell but instead a built in frame to retain the mould of the bag. Its slightly cheaper at RM300 and has lotsa pockets......Saw it at AL-IKHSAN when I got mine...

P:S If they would have been a new EPIC going for RM700..I would Never think about getting itV . This one is priced alright for me.....And YES Mine is also tagged with the warranty valid in America only, and the bag is made in China.,,,What happened to yours by the way?

Well... look at the pict.



I will send for warranty claim and see what gonna happen... wish me luck and pls be careful with yours... not too rough with the strings...

Oh, is it the gutter string which tightens your bag by pulling it over the zips and hooking it to the top portion? That can tear so easily?

The gutter string is strong... it's the small hole with that little metal thingy... that metal thingy got torn apart. I guess somebody might have pulled the string a lil bit too rough...

Oh...so your bag still functions lar....its just the metal thing which prevents the fabric from tearing has broken right???

Well I will heed your advice. Just that I feel the shoulder straps are prone to creases. When I got mine there were only 2 units and both had some creases. I picked the one with the least lines on the shoulder strap. After using yours for Months now, how bad are the lines on YOUR shoulder strap?

P:S on another note, if you search GOOGLE iMages for NIKE EPIC/NIKE EPIC GRAPHIC You will see that some parts of the bag are not the same as the ones we get here. For example the net thingy which you can take out have 8 hooks on it as opposed to 7 on ours. And on the back portion of the bag which keeps in contact on our backs. The ones we get here have 2 huge shoulder pad which protrudes to minimise contact and provide airflow. The ones on google have 2 S shapes facing each other on some glossy like fabric. Other deails the same....
Did you notice this Shinigami?

Yeah i did and i kinda like the black one... regarding the padding, i believe ours is better (theirs sure sweat if u carry long time) even though ours not better looking... I also kinda like our Dual-adjustable lumbar "S" panel better... better in design.

I See, so you noticed too...Well I was just wondering if ours can be counted as BioKNX technology? Cos I read the review of the other EPICS and its stated that you can adjust the curvature of the back of the bag os something like that...Are the ones here FAKES??? Or a redone design?

I agree with you the padding on ours is better as you really feel the minimal contact. As for Lumbar S panel, did you mean the 2 contact points at the hips with the netting?

actually to be honest i dunno what the heck is the "Dual-adjustable lumbar "S" panel" is... hahaha... since the shoulder strap the most adjustable, i thought that was it.. so what i meant is actually the S-shaped shoulder straps with dual-density foam and 35 degrees of articulation/customized it... ours is better.

i see....Thats why all those mambo-jumbo got me searching as the NIKE Tag which came with the EPIC just read EPIC and didn't come with an additional TAG inside with BioKNX written on it like in this pic below...And I think the 2 S shapes at the back portions are the lumbar thingy......
