Backpack for travel/carr on too

Check out Osprey farpoint/fairview 40L. It’s a travel backpack so it also has a clamshell opening that’s easy to get stuff in/out of like a suitcase. The backpack straps are actually really comfortable so you can walk with your pack fully loaded for longer distances, up stairs, etc. It’s very resili

Advice for a big pack for homelessness/temporary displacement/no vehicle

If you really, truly, need it to be 100% waterproof, I'd go for 40-50L dry bag backpack, there's plenty out there. They're intended for raft/kayak camping, but I've seen them used heavily by boat crews and people that work out in the elements. If comfort matters more, there's plenty of 50-70L backpa

Big carry-on backpacks - how critical is a hip belt?

Not sure how much you're planning to pay for the Deuter, but the osprey farpoint/fairview 40 has an adjustable back that allows it to work for people with lots of different body types. The Deuter has a good harness system but not adjustable, which means it either works for your body or doesn't. With

Backpack Recommendations?

The usual first recommendation is the Osprey Farpoint/Fairview. I think it looks pretty neutral, especially in a conservative color.

Can My Think Tank Bags Fly as Personal Items on American Airlines? (737-800/A319)

This is not a camera bag, but our family uses Osprey 40 Farpoint/Fairview backpacks as carryons which are 9H X 14W X 22D IN on American and Spirit and never had an issue. We just try to look "skinny" as we jokingly call it when boarding. You should be fine.

Travelling Backpack recommendations

The FarPoint 55 will count as 2 bags for Delta (USA): 40L qualifies as carry-on, and the 15L as a personal item. The 15L is actually smaller than would be permitted as a personal item, so you are giving up a bit of packing room if that is important - it worked fine for us, traveling as a couple (wif

Travel with Onebag

“I have quickly prerused” 🤣🤣🤣 Honestly with kids? Osprey of various makes (Daylights, 26+6 for the olders, Daylights for youngers or maybe Osprey/ Aer packables? — unless you are talking tiny tots) and the Farpoint / Fairview for adults, or Tom Bihn 25 Synapse / 26 Syniks. That’s my rec for first- o

Realistic for Japan winter travel with 25+7L bag(s)?

25 liters would be a bit small for me. Possible, but it will be tight. The REI Trail 25 or Patagonia Black Hole 25 come to mind. would wear my midlayer on the plane to save space. Seeing that you will have a personal item, your other bag is going in the overhead regardless. I would use a Black Hole
