Check Price of This Bag

The Federate Adapt from Kathmandu converts between three separate modes: a 28L daily carry bag, a 38L carry-on travel bag, and a 50L check-in bag.

Extreme conversion… from daily carry to carry on bag to 50L check in bag. This thing has tons of room.
Very comfortable back panel… very breathable and cushy. Also nice to have hip-straps built in with the ability to hide them away.
Very limited external access… this is my big gripe with this bag (but it does the other stuff so good that this bag is a real option for lots of folks).
