I'm in love
on January 29, 2025
Posted by: Chris P
Wow - is possible to be in love with an inanimate object (45L backpack)? I purchased this bag a month ago and have used it on two trips. Flawless, high quality and lives up to all the reviews! The packing cubes, tech and bath pouches, field pouch and 'stretchy' cubes rounded out the whole system, flawlessly. I could not be more happy with the fit, finish and overall quality of this bag and the accessories - well done!! Yes, the price is a bit higher than others, but you get what you pay for.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this to be more lean when I travel for business. The sleek design and strong lines makes it elegant enough so that I don’t appear to be “backpacking” with the client. The well engineered details do not go unprotected when using the pack. Can’t wait to grow my collection of these products.

Great bag for hybrid situations between travels and possible daily usage thanks to a much smaller footprint than the 45L. Very comfortable, at least for my body type, easily adjustable and great features and design.
I just miss some of the features of the 45L (full back access, side access, hip attachment).

This backpack served me well on my week long eurotrip. Unfortunately one of the plastic shoulder strap retainers broke off. I would recommend replacing these with metal hardware. I also would like a replacement.

Worked as a personal item on a plane
on February 14, 2025
Posted by: New Zealand Bro
I bought this "30L" backpack as a carry on personal item in it's 27L form for a one month trip to New Zealand. It fit under the airplane seat and although it's technically oversized no one looked twice at it. It also carried my 16 inch Mac Pro with plenty of room. It worked well with the PD toiletry kit and large gadget bag. You cannot get much into the bag without being well over the airline's ludicrous weight restrictions, but no one checked the weight of either carry on at any time. I also wanted a backpack that opened like a suitcase. The downside is that it is definitely not waterproof and some of my stuff got wet. I personally like that it keeps it's shape and can be expanded from 27L to 35L. Also the luggage pass through was a must as I also had a wheeled carry on.

I have the black 45L bag and it may go to every time I travel. It’s been to India thrice, Japan, Italy, Switzerland and countless local trips in California. It can easily be your bag for a 1-2 week trip.

Great design

I've had this backpack for a month and taken it on a few trips. The design is well thought out, making it very functional. If you're using it as a carry-on, you'll likely hit the weight limit before it’s full. Highly recommend!
