The Outbreaker is available as a 45-liter bag (the max space for a carry-on bag), which we tested, along with the 35-liter version, which is compliant with some intra-European flights. And that’s despite the bag’s hefty (just over 5 pounds) weight when empty-it’s roughly 2 pounds more than most of our other picks, except the Peak Design Travel Backpack. Just as important, thanks to the adjustable torso length, shoulder straps, and waist-belt system (borrowed from hiking backpacks), the Outbreaker is the most adjustable bag we’ve tested three years in a row. That’s why we have picks that are great for people traveling for work, others designed to be carried over long distances, and budget options for travelers who want to give the one-bag strategy a try. However, finding the right bag is a personal choice, and no single bag will appeal to everyone. This is not a style of packing that’s for everyone, but once some people try it, they’re forever hooked. Though these backpacks are great as companion bags for any trip, they’re designed to ultimately replace all of your other luggage and become your exclusive bag as you travel.
Both bags are exemplary carry-on travel backpacks that are designed for comfort, durability, and organization. In the end, we chose two as our top picks: the Cotopaxi Allpa 35L (for most trips) and the larger Peak Design Travel Backpack 45L. We spent six months testing 22 bags and flying across the country with all of our picks. Some internal pockets are useful, but major organizing is better managed on your own with packing cubes.
