Reasons to buy

  • Great construction and quality materials are used.
  • Remarkably lightweight but highly reliable.
  • The clamshell opening makes packing and unpacking easy.
  • Highly flexible because of the "Three ways to carry" design (shoulder bag, briefcase, and backpack)
  • Features a lot of organization plus there's an attachment option on the outside of the bag in which you can attach smaller topo bags.

Things to consider

  • The laptop compartment can be too tight.
  • No pocket for your water bottle.
  • When overpacked, the bag's dimensions don’t align with most airline carry-on size restrictions.

What reviewers said

  • "It obvious that a lot of time and attention was given to the design and construction of this bag. Perfect for taking on a trip where air travel, public transportation, and walking are required. Easy to carry, plus the interior is broken up into easy to pack sections that keeps gear and clothes organized."
  • "This bag is everything that I expected it to be, and that's a great thing to be able to say. The overall look has visual impact, not only because of the color blocking, but the style just screams adventure."
  • "For me, this one was a perfect size and quality. Very well made. The material feels great, there are plenty of pockets and room for everything I need. I wouldn't change anything with this one."

The Topo Travel bag has a playful style, which I like a lot, but it is very serious about being a great travel bag. This is a classic.
