There are a lot of factors that go into what makes the best travel bag for each type of trip or activity. Over the years, we\u2019ve gathered our favorite bags to pick and choose the right one for each adventure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what\"><u>What to Look for in a Travel Backpack<\/u><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When we started our search for the best travel backpack, we had a list of requirements. Over time, as we found more features that we loved, that list grew even bigger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also acknowledge that everyone\u2019s needs are different. For us, we carry a fair amount of camera gear. Regardless of our different needs, here are some features you should consider when looking for your bag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:5px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Size<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Size matters. You want a bag big enough to hold what you need (plus some extra space in case you pick up items during your travel), but not so big that it\u2019s cumbersome. Also, will you primarily be using it to get your stuff from point A to point B? Or will you need to wear it while you explore? Here are a few general rules to follow:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>15-30 L<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 Good for weekend trips and as a day pack. Perfect to pair with a <a href=\"https:\/\/localadventurer.com\/best-carry-on-luggage\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">small suitcase<\/a> and our current preference.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>35-45 L<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 Nice, all-around size (unless you\u2019re small like me). It can be used for week-long or even month-long trips but feels large to use out and about during the day.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>50-65 L<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 These are bigger if you need extra space. They may also get flagged as a <a href=\"https:\/\/localadventurer.com\/best-carry-on-luggage\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">carry on<\/a> depending on the size of the plane and how you pack.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>70-120 L<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 Way too big for the average traveler. This is moreso used for multi-day backcountry hiking. It\u2019s also really heavy.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:8px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Weight<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The lighter, the better! With that said, you still want quality and durability. A light bag that falls apart won\u2019t help you on your travels. Also, consider the weight of the bag after it\u2019s filled. It might not seem heavy at first, but it all adds up. As we get older, we\u2019ve realized that we prefer a smaller backpack paired with a <a href=\"https:\/\/localadventurer.com\/best-carry-on-luggage\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">small suitcase <\/a>to relieve the weight we carry on our backs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:5px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Durability + Weather Resistance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Where will you be wearing your bag? Outdoors? Rainy weather? In the city? You want materials that can handle all your adventures. Since we\u2019re carrying a lot of electronics, we try finding waterproof or water-resistant bags, or ones with a rain fly if we\u2019re in a severe downpour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:5px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Design + Access<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This all comes down to preference and covers the aesthetics of the backpack and also the usability of it. Do you prefer a top-loading backpack or clamshell so you can access everything without pulling all your stuff out? We always prefer one that also has easier side access to our camera gear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, pay attention to how the straps fit and if they pack away. Do they come with separate handles to help you pick up the bag? If the bag is larger, you may also want waist straps to distribute weight and lighten the load on your back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:5px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Compartments<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>What are your travel essentials? It\u2019s helpful to put that list together so you know what type of organization you\u2019ll need. Do you travel with a laptop? Camera gear? Extra shoes? A non-negotiable for us was a place to keep our camera gear safe and secure and easy access for any unforeseen photo ops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:5px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Additional Features<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s impressive to see how bags have evolved over the years. What other features do you want in your backpack? Here are just a few that we\u2019ve loved:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Compressions Straps \u2013 help pack more without making your bag bulky. It also helps make the bag smaller when it\u2019s not full.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lockable Zippers \u2013 extra security when traveling.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Secret Compartments \u2013 another feature for security.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sternum and Waist Straps \u2013 help lighten the load but can cause more dangly straps that get in the way if not designed well.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Back Panel \u2013 A well-designed back panel can be the difference between a soaking wet back and a nicely ventilated back.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"all\"><u>Best All-Around Travel Backpacks<\/u><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first few bags that we\u2019ll look at are all-around travel backpacks. They are flexible bags that can be used in most scenarios. These are generally larger bags, and I usually don\u2019t carry them because of their sheer size on my petite frame, but luckily, I have Jacob, who likes to travel with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. <a href=\"https:\/\/peak-design.pxf.io\/Dy00Eo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Peak Design TRAVEL backpack (Editor&#8217;s Pick) \u2192<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As you scroll down, you\u2019ll realize that we love Peak Design bags. The main reason is that we always carry camera gear, and they build their bags with cameras in mind. When they announced a&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/peak-design.pxf.io\/Dy00Eo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Travel Backpack 45L<\/a><\/strong>, we knew it would be promising.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The bag is well-designed and packed with a ton of features. They excel at giving you a clean, minimalist design but still have many ways to customize the bag to how you travel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They also released a&nbsp;Travel Backpack 30L&nbsp;version, which I like much better.
