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
I'd vote the Cor Surf bag! The ease in opening it flat to pack and be able to maintain organization without the added weight of packing cubes seems like a huge plus! And I am older and taller than you, so that might affect the presentation, but I think the blue Cor Surf bag is really cute!

Do you always wish you went with a smaller backpack? 40L seems too big and cumbersome
I travel a lot with my grown son. He’s 32, fit and 6’. He carries a 38L. His clothes are bigger, so he needs the extra space. I’m 63F, fit and 5’4”. I only need a 28L to fit the same amount of stuff in. We both love the CorSurf Island Hoppers for their flexibility. However, If I’m just going somewhe

Fully-packed Review and Comparison: REI Ruckpack 30L vs Cor Surf Island Hopper 28L
I have the same Cor Surf bag, same color too. I was very surprised at how much I could put in it. A few things to add: Pros: Two 'secret' zip pockets on the back panel. One is under the trolley pass. Unless you knew, you wouldn't know. The top zip pocket fit my liquids and hard sunglasses case. It a

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
