“I found this company on a whim while researching backpacks for a two-week stint in Italy - and it exceeded expectations! I fit a week's worth of clothes, my laptop, my documents, toiletries, a power adaptor, and even two pairs of shoes easily. The bag does not hurt my back when carrying it and I like the selection of different straps. And the final big plus? I can count as a carry-on for the airlines. I am excited to try this bag out again for some camping and hiking this summer. Needless to say, I will be recommending this company's products to my friends and family looking for reliable equipment!”
“Traveled for 14 days in Thailand with this bag and it worked great! I could have lived out of this backpack for a month easily. The perfect space for a backpack adventure and it fit as a carry-on, I never needed to check my bag once for international and or domestic flights. The only missing star is that the backpack is not waterproof and the neon straps are not always the vibe. The functionality on this backpack is what I needed and it delivered. The great thing is if Roark wanted to substitute those neon straps for a solid color and waterproof or design a slick waterproof cover for this backpack it will be a top 5 travel backpack for 2023!”
“I have bought so many backpacks in attempts to find the perfect one, and I think I did! This pack is big enough to fit my needs for a month of traveling and small enough to fit in many overhead bins. I haven't flown to Europe yet, and when it's full, it can be a bit of a squeeze, but it has made it! It's not so bulky that it adds a lot of weight. I like that it doesn't open like a clamshell, because I can put the top back over it after I've gotten what I need, and it doesn't take up too much space! I can put a ton of papers and a computer in the laptop section, and I think it's got the perfect number of pockets and sections. I love the shoe pocket on top. I feel like Goldilocks, and this one's juuuust right :)”
“This bag as perfect! I easily fit enough for a nine day trip, Florence and Rome, including a pair of shoes. It is incredibly comfortable to wear and easy to spot at baggage claim.”
“Took this bag all over Western Europe for 10 days. Held up well and was able to pack it more than full. Durable, good compression straps. Handle on the side is very helpful. From planes to trains, I can't wait to use it again.”
“I use this pack to do multi-day filmmaking trips for documentaries. I am able to fit my camera, all of my gear and suppliers, and a change of clothes in the backpack. And I can strap my bigtripod to the outside and it is sturdy and secure”
