40 L Hiking Backpack - Travel 500 Black

The only issue with this otherwise perfect travel backpack is, for me, the shoulder straps. They are too narrow around the neck. I have to wear a fabric around my neck to protect it from scratchy shoulder straps. Otherwise, wow. Fits in the cabin perfectly, nice compartment

s, open like a luggage. Better than this would be a 18-22l bag we could attach on the back of this one as Airlines allows one carry on and one personal item…

All good thx

Great backpack overall.

If you were like me looking for a travel backpack that isn't crazy amounts of money I loved this backpack for a 3 weeks backpacking trip in Europe. - Zippers and construction were generally really good. Everything held up/didn't get jammed. - It opens up like a suitcase

- A little on the larger side for carry-on but I brought it on multiple RyanAir flights and did not get flagged. - Compartments make for great organization. - Straps provide decent support. I could comfortably carry 14kg loads. - Side laptop sleeve (15 inch) and top pouch can be LOCKED with a luggage lock! - Pouches are great for snacks, water bottles, and more. Genuinely recommend this to a lot of people. Plenty of space, great organization, great build quality. Unbeatable price point.

I love the clamshell opening with integrated packing sections for organization. I found they were very efficient for organizing my gear when doing a test pack which included 2 pairs of sandals, cloths for 5 days, medical kit, tech pouch and toiletries. I also liked the compre

ssion straps, top and bottom grab handles, easy access top pocket for storing glasses, passport etc. Locking zips on the main compartment are great. The harness system is well padded. I appreciate the included rain cover. Overall this bag is great value for money and almost perfect in my opinion. I bought this bag to use as carry-on for domestic and international flights. The downsides are: the pack exceeds the carry on size requirements for the airlines I will be travelling on as it is slightly too deep (27 cm) and there is no where to hide/stow the shoulder straps/hip belt. I like to get them out of the way when boarding a flight so they don't get caught on arm rests, or in the back of the overhead bin. I recommend getting the depth down to 23 cm and adding an integrated rain cover/shoulder strap zip up cover and this pack would be perfect in my opinion. Sadly, I will be returning the bag due depth of the pack otherwise I loved it.

Just hauled it to Montreal and back to Saskatchewan using it as a take-on carry-on. The hip belt and chest strap really made a difference when walking any significant distance. I was happy to discover a laptop pocket though because the pocket seemed to not have protection at t

he bottom of the pack, I stuffed socks down there LOL It seems extremely well constructed and up to the task of adventures this fall in Guatemala & Colombia.

Brillaint design and construction. Even came with a rain cover! Perfect for organizing and fits great as a carry on option on aircraft. Love this!

A little too small for my needs as the inside separated compartments reduces total space. Good waist belt and exterior pockets, rain cover and locking zippers are great features.

Great value!

We took this bag on a 3 weeks Italy trip and loved everything about it. Highly recommend it and good value for money.
