Transit Backpack
Twenty eight litres that still looks right when it is half empty.
Most bags are designed at full capacity and look slumped at every other volume, which is how they spend most of their life. This one collapses neatly instead. The fabric is weatherproof in the useful sense rather than the marketing sense. Be honest about the twenty eight litres though. That number assumes a tidy packer, and if you carry a lunch box as well as a laptop you want the larger one.
Four days out of one bag, with a laptop, a few times a year.
You need a personal item that slides under a seat. This is sized as a carry on and will not go under.
A carry on backpack with a clamshell main compartment, a separate laptop sleeve reachable from outside, and weatherproof recycled fabric. Three year warranty.
- Holds its shape at any level of fullness
- Laptop sleeve opens without unpacking the main compartment
- Warranty claims get handled without an argument
- Stated capacity assumes disciplined packing
- Leather trims scuff early and add nothing structural
