The Best Travel Bag for Weekend Trips
on August 1, 2022
Posted by: Taylor
from New York, NY
I travel back and forth between Seattle and New York on a monthly basis and this is the only bag that can keep up.
It has a combination of large storage spaces combined with organizational pockets that allows you to pack clothing, work supplies, and a neck pillow in addition to spaces for chargers, wallets, keys.
I have found that the handles located on all sides of the bag are super helpful when taking the bag down from the overhead bin or when grabbing it out of the back of a Lyft. It's a convenient size and collapses when traveling empty so you get more leg room on an airplane.
There's not much that I would want to be changed in the bag. It's been my go-to travel backpack for the past year.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought it a month ago & planning to go to Europe for a month. This backpack plus a small suitcase and you can carry everything without checking any bags. This is perfect.

Spacious and Sufficient

This bag is the beefy carry-on you've been looking for. I was blown away by how much it could hold and all the added features. It's ideal for traveling professionals looking to protect their gear. My only complaint is that it's a bit too big to make sense as a day pack. Can it work? Sure. Is it a little conspicuous? Absolutely.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I’ve had the travel backpack for almost year now and there hasn’t been a single trip or even weekend getaway that it hasn’t come with me on. The organization options are intuitive and endless, and the convenience and comfort can’t be overstated. I’m incredibly happy with it!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Love this backpack

Bought this to avoid checked baggage on a trip with several flights. Impressively made. High quality. Just enough separate storage spaces so you know where things are, without being overwhelming.
I would recommend this to a friend!

It just works, You can configure this bag in so many ways that it should fit you needs if you want to travel compact/light. I can only say only good things about it. Quality construction and thoughtful organizational features throughout.
Thank you!

Big and full of cool features
on August 9, 2022

from Charleston, SC
Swapped on old messenger bag piece of luggage I've had as a carry on for this bag. Taken it on two trips so far, one a road trip and the other a flight, and the bag did well for both. The fully open back is super handy for loading and unloading, the straps are comfy, and the way they tuck away is great for overhead bin space.
I haven't used the side pockets for my trips much, and as far as a day pack on your travels goes, it's very bulky. If you are a one bag travellers the extra versitility to use that way would be invaluable, but it is too big to replace my normal carry back pack on a day to day basis.
The build quality is great, all the magnets snap in a satisfying way for the back panel, the zippers are beefy and the pockets feel substantial despite being mesh. It compresses down super well even if you over pack it.
All that said, the pricetag is steep. I hate roller bags and never use them, but for this price, you can get a really solid one that would have very similar space and useful features, just without the backpack straps. For me it's worth the money for something I hope to use for years to come, but for the price there are other great options too.
If roller bags are not your thing, this bag is a good choice. All the same space with the added bonus of being able to tote stuff for a hike or shopping trip when you get where you are going.
I would recommend this to a friend!
