30L vs 40L bag, help me decide!

40l will be too much for a lot of carry-on options. 30L is what I'll use at most, and still I get stopped to check my bag in a sizer. Especially on Wizz flights. I use a Patagonia Refugio 30, and it fits for multiple weeks of travel. I usually combine it with a tote, or a tote bag If I have a carryo

supposedly skilled guy looking for suggestions for a 14kg "around the world bag"

Fucks sake mate, you're carrying 7 kilos too much stuff. Firstly**, get a smaller 30L backpack** for starters, that weighs no more than 1.2kgs. Even better, get a Patagonia Refugio 30 that weighs 700 grams. Pair it with an osprey packable backpack that weighs 200 odd grams. Your two bags now weigh 900 g

Looking for a Backpack for school and travel

Based on what you wrote, I’d look at school/commuter bags in the 30-32L range, not pure travel packs. Your real requirements seem to be:good comfort under a heavy load,compression straps so the bag does not feel sloppy when half full,actual water bottle pockets for a 40 oz bottle,and durability that

Daily gym backpack

I don’t know what your budget it (these are probably too expensive if you’re looking at Jansport) but check out the Patagonia Refugio day pack 26L, and the Aer Duffle Pack. Both have a duffel front, to keep clothes seperate. The Aer in particular would be a great gym bag but it’s very expensive.

Some questions on Patagonia refugio 30L

Very late to this post! I have the Patagonia Refugio 30L and have only used it for airport travel so far. No issues with it, and I think the specific airlines I used it with were Delta and American Airlines. I always used it as a carry-one, and it fits well underneath the seat. All of that to say...

Help me decide between Quasar, Refugio, and Nebula

Update: After a lot of research I decided that the Osprey Nebula was too big for what I would be using it for day to day. A lot of comments even made me consider going into the 18-24L range but ultimately my choice came down to the Osprey Quasar and the Patagonia Refugio. I really enjoyed the fit an
