Tortuga Travel Backpack

avg. reader score

HAVEN'T RATED

Checking in bags can be costly, both in terms of money and time. The Tortuga Travel backpack aims to keep your hard-earned cash in your wallet by bringing everything you need for your trip in a carry-on sized bag. The 44L volume offers enough space for longer and shorter trips, with a front-loading design for convenient packing – plus no need to unpack half the contents to reach items near the bottom. A sternum strap, padded hip belt and shoulder straps provide carry comfort and thoughtfully situated quick-access pockets let you reach items without taking the pack off. The pack fits up to a 17-inch laptop, with other travel-friendly features including lockable zippers, internal and external compression straps and a strap cover to create a clean silhouette for carrying the pack by the side handle or storing it in overhead luggage bins.

the good
  • Excellent pocketing, padded hip belt, comfortable handles
the not so good
  • Almost too large for overhead bin
  • Zippers grab occasionally
