"Professional Affordable"

Very simple bag, no frills, super-light and excellent expandability.

More on the Almond Oak Travel Backpack (25L + 5L)

What I like

  • Extremely lightweight
  • Expands out and contracts back down, so it doubles as an excellent daily carry bag
  • Made by a really spirited founder designing the stuff he wishes he'd had
  • If I were 20 and just starting minimalist, lightweight travel, this is one I'd look at

Watch for

  • Not a lot of frills in the design and features

Specs

  • 25L, expands to 30L
  • About 1.8 lb
  • 280D nylon
