Global Travel Bag 30L

Pack light, travel far

What is it about packing for a trip? In everyday life, you wear and use the same few items day-in, day-out, but start laying out your stuff for a holiday and you’re like, ‘what if I suddenly need a pair of cowboy boots and an accordion?’. Our POV is that unless you’re planning gear-heavy activities like camping or climbing, 30 litres is more than enough for most trips and this global travel bag from Topo Designs is the way to haul it. With a comfortable padded back panel, you can carry it three different ways: it’s got stowable/removable mesh backpack straps and waist belt, a padded shoulder strap, plus grab handles on the top and side. The recycled nylon fabric will stand up to plenty of rough treatment, and the roomy main compartment has a U-shaped zip for easy access. Various internal and external compartments will help you keep your clobber organised, and the global travel bag is carry-on compliant so if you can bear to leave your penknife and jet-lighter at home with the accordion then you can skip the baggage queues too.

• Topo Designs founders Jedd Rose and Mark Hansen cut their adventuring teeth among the high plains, deep canyons and iconic mountains of Colorado. Growing up, they favoured simple, functional and durable kit the kind of stuff made by genuine hikers, climbers and mountaineers in basement workshops. But somewhere along the way, as the gear world ballooned into a multi-million-dollar industry, they felt like the kit they were being offered had lost its authentic connection to the real world of outdoor adventure.

  In 2008, Jedd and Mark set up Topo Designs to return to those roots. They started out making packs on a single sewing machine in a Fort Collins basement, and rapidly built a reputation for uncomplicated but stylish gear with outdoor-inspired design and urban utility. Today, their products are some of the most durable, versatile and good-looking crossover packs in the business built for trailheads, urban adventures and globe-trotting travels.

  They’re also not afraid to tackle some of the gear industry’s thornier issues head-on. Topo Designs are meticulous about their sourcing and manufacturing using recycled fabrics, reducing water and energy usage, and seeking out more environmentally friendly processes and treatments. Several product lines are still made in their home state of Colorado, while their international partner factories conform to the exacting standards set by the Fair Wear Foundation.

Lots of organisation options!
