Bought the 45L Sage bag last minute for a 10- day trip to Scandinavia. It was perfect for carry on international flights, easy to check for Scandinavian domestic flights that have very small carry on bag restrictions. Once jammed- full, your gear is easy to access from every direction due to its multi- entry point system. Loaded with features, even after 10 days of constant use, I was still discovering new capabilities. I rarely leave a review but this bag was so good I just had to. Great job design team!
I carried this bag everywhere during a 2 week trip. Paired with some packing cubes, it has more than enough space to fit clothes, toiletries, and small souvenirs that I picked up along the way. The bag is super sturdy, although this means that you can't really fold it/crumple it up very easily, and it is a bit heavy when completely empty. Fully expanded, it just about squeezes into a standard-sized overhead bin on a plane. I used the outer straps to fasten an extra packing cube to the outside to hold more stuff in the main compartment. I didn't think I'd use it, but the side access comes in handy when trying to reach something stuffed at the bottom of the bag quickly, and the inner pockets help for small documents/pens/paper. Great bag all in all, and I'm happy I got it.
Can be used for just about everything, as I do! Not a 10/10 for hiking, but about everything else it’ll excel at. I find myself rarely using the expansion as it exceeds flight carry on limits, so i could’ve settled for a 30L, but it’s been nice and easy the times i’ve used it to fully pack it. The decompression partly undos itself if you use the side handles with any force, which is just about the only complaint i have.
Great organisation, customizability and adaption. The external straps and hip belt that can be hidden away are amazing.
This bag is bomb proof. Big enough to fit a bunch of stuff, but small enough to be a carryon. Great design. Plenty of pockets and organizers. Plenty of little thoughtful features throughout. All of the straps and the hip belt tuck neatly inside flaps on the back of the bag. I can't think of a single improvement.
I bought this bag a month ago and it’s amazing the design the thought put to the details of this bag. This one bag is all you’d need for your travel adventures.
best backpack and answer the most questions in this era!!!! I'm not going to talk about its use. Since you can easily find it from reviewers all over the world... But what I want to offer as a customer That's the best after sales service. And you must be impressed with the service of the team for sure!!!!! Trust me because I have proven it. from...customers in Thailand
This bag was my first attempt at 1-bag travel. I was able to fit everything I need for a week-long trip in the 35L (non-expanded) mode. I used it with a large packing. I’ve, small packing cube, shoe bag, and large wash bag. It fits easily in the overhead bins, and is comfortable for carrying. The ability to shrink it to 30L (“daypack mode”) once you get to your destination is a nice touch. If you need a bit more space, using the lashing straps to attach a shoe bag or wash kit on the outside works well. The variety of pockets is great once you figure out how to best make them work for you (watch the video for ideas!). The laptop sleeve makes you forget you even have it with you.
