Anything better or similar to the Cotopaxi travel pack?
You want the Cor Surf bag travel bag. No I haven't tried it. Same concept, lower price. I've always liked the thought and look of the Cotopaxi. Saw someone talk about Cor Surf one night, then looked it up. Island Hopper.

"COR surf" backpack.... thoughts and opinions?
I have the Cotopaxi Allpa 35L and COR Surf Island Hopper 2.0 28L. Been a Cotopaxi fan for awhile, but my Allpa just gets less and less use these days. This is partly due to the fact that I’ve been reducing my one bag content so I don’t need the space of a 35L anymore, BUT I also don’t feel the Allpa

Fully-packed Review and Comparison: REI Ruckpack 30L vs Cor Surf Island Hopper 28L
If cute is a factor, what's your thoughts on Cotopaxi? At "only" twice the cost of the Cor Surf they're very cute and similar. But... my wife has that same REI Ruckpack (I assume it's the female version you have) in that same color and she loves it. She has that for her bigger travel bag, and the Ru

Backpack Recommendations - Work Travel
The Island Hopper from COR Surf checks all your boxes. I think they had some colors on sale last weekend. Picked up the 28L for my wife in pink.

Returning Osprey Transporter Global Carry-On, Need Recs
COR Surf Island Hopper 2.0 is pretty much the Cotopaxi Allpa but understated and way cheaper (even more so with frequently available discount codes, search online). Order in sleek but not too shiny black. 34L but consider the 28L, which for me is a perfect size.

What’s the best backpacks for travel for people who are short and hate bulky bags?
I’m 5’4” and 63yrs old. I add the age because I can’t carry as much weight as I used to. My absolute favorite travel backpack is the CorSurf 28L Island Hopper. It has an excellent laptop compartment, lots of hidey pockets, luggage pass thru, it fits under the seat in front of me with plenty of room

Best 40-50L travel backpack?
Osprey Farpoint is really popular. Cor Surf Island Hopper if you like the Cotapaxi but maybe want to go a little cheaper. I actually love my Ebags (now Samsonite) Motherlode. No frills but it does everything I need it to and holds a lot and has traveled everywhere with me and I have no complaints. I

Fully-packed Review and Comparison: REI Ruckpack 30L vs Cor Surf Island Hopper 28L
Theyre about the same around $100, so its negligible. That's the reason I went with the COR Surf instead of the very similar Cotopaxi Allpa 28 at $200

Looking for the ultimate hybrid travel & work bag!
I had a rec recently for a COR surf island hopper. Very affordable. I haven’t road tested mine yet but it seems like it’s going to work well. The original model comes in various colors while the 2.0 is only in black.

I need a backpack without a computer compartment
Osprey Aoede Briefpack 22L, Cotopaxi Allpa Mini 20L, or the Eberlestock Apprentice 27L and on sale right now for 50.00, or the CorSurf 28L Island Hopper. All of these are extremely good bags and very similar to one another. Yes, they have a place for something flat, but that’s where I would put my t
