patagonia carryon backpack Black Hole MLC – V12 Outdoor shoulder bag or travel bag Outdoor Backpacks by Patagonia

In bold are my top picks for each group (based on trip length) If you tend to pack more or less than the average person, shift the trip length values accordingly If you're planning to get either one of them, I'd also highly recommend you to check out Osprey's own PackFinder tool as well

While a lot of these rigid units forego meaningful external pockets in favor of tight pouches that are difficult to get in and out of, the Trailmate has a roomy zippered pocket in front that slants at the bottom in an attempt to separate your gear from any water that may have seeped inside

Features include an interior zippered felt pocket, smooth leather trim and nickel hardware
