My requirements for a “perfect” onebag 👇🏼

Описание: ✨ Open suitcase style
✨ 35-40 liters (typically can fit under seats or go in overhead bin)
✨ Durable (especially the zippers)
✨ Comfortable hip belt
✨ Multiple pocket sections

Thoughts on the Gregory Border 40L so far:

I really like it. The pockets are perfectly placed and you can really maximize the space in this bag. I was worried about the hip belt comfort, because they’re not as cushiony as the ones on my Cotopaxi, but I haven’t felt any discomfort carrying it around on a long travel day. The s mell sealed compartment for shoes/dirty clothes is so nice to have. Oh and it has a water bottle holder!!

Reasons I love the Cotopaxi Allpa:

This thing is insanely durable. I have put that thing over everything over the past 3 years and the whole bag is still holding up great (especially the zippers and I have TESTED those things). The organization within the bag is great and I love the compression straps on the inside… but apparently those aren’t in the new bag versions anymore? 😢

Other backpack recommendations:

Logan has used both the Tortuga Travel backpack and the Aer Travel Pack. He loved the comfort and design of the Tortuga, but it broke for him after 2 years of wear. It looks like they’ve made some improvements in the newer packs. The Aer is super sleek and has great organization. So far after 1 year of solid use it is still holding up great. I’m actually interested in trying out the Aer on a future trip.
