Why compare these options?
Totes of comparable carrying scale, selected for a difference of 289.7 g in published empty weight and 2.5 L in published capacity.
- The listed capacities are 18.5 L and 16 L. Which can take your complete named load with the bag closed? Capacity ratings alone cannot settle this.
- The published empty weights are 589.7 g and 300 g. Do those figures include the same straps or accessories? Check the source scope before treating the difference as carried weight.
- Check the strap measurement type and usable pocket openings for your clothing and objects; neither wearing comfort nor combined loading has been tested here.

What changes between the published specifications
The published empty-weight values differ by 289.7 g. This compares manufacturer figures; accessory inclusion and weighing tolerance may differ.
Listed capacity: 18.5 L versus 16 L. Volume ratings do not establish a pocket opening or the shape of an object that can fit.
Outside dimensions stay in the order used by each manufacturer. Match labelled axes where supplied; unlabelled axes do not support a height-to-height claim.
With an illustrative 1 kg load, starting totals would be 1,589.7 g and 1,300 g before any accessories excluded from the published weights. This is arithmetic, not a comfort or packed-load test.
Questions these numbers cannot settle
- Will your phone and passport fit together with the bag fully closed?
- Can you reach the needed pocket while wearing the bag?
- Does the strap adjust comfortably over your clothing and body measurements?
- How does the particular material perform in your use?
Use the two fact sheets for model details, then check those questions with the actual bag or directly with its manufacturer.
