What travel backpack brand is the best - both for value/comfort and quality
15 years ago, June 21st 2008 No: 1 Msg: #39448  
I'm travelling for 2 months to SE Asia at the end of the year (During summer) and was wondering if anyone could recommend a travel backpack brand they've used or people they know have used that has been good.

Also what sort of size ( 65lt, 70lt, 90lt!) do you think I'll need for a trip of that length, considering I will be packing lightly (just t-shirts and shorts and little of them)? Reply to this

Hey ned,
im gunna assume from where you are going u r ozzie! i got a black wolf bag (70L i think) which im happy with and got it from anaconda which were easily the cheapest. Size is all up to you i guess, depends how much stuff wanna take an buy when there..... but definatly try it on, put a load in it while in the shop and test how comfy it is as that most important. Also will get idea of how much can cram into it! Definatly recommend one with rain cover for the SE asia monsoons and a detachable day pack is also handy. Make sure it has some easily accessible pockets as well. Could try searching net for reviews, im sure there out there if you know what you want.
have a great trip sounds like fun Reply to this
