Our thoughts
The Neekfox backpack is more of a hiking backpack, but that doesn't mean you can't use it for one-bagging.
Hiking is One Bagging
What's the difference between a one bag carry on and a hiking backpack? Both are designed to be light, durable, and be useful for a long-term trip.
Both have to survive bears or boat trips, trees or tuck tucks. Hiking bags probably have a lot of weight and durability advantages over traditional one bags . There may be a lot of underrated hiking bags out there that would work perfectly for one-bagging.
The only major difference would be size. Some hiking bags are pretty tall with have semi-rigid backs so they may not fit into a carry on compartment. The Neekfox is pretty small for a king bag so it does fit inside most airline carry on compartments.
Some airlines have fixed dimensional restrictions which means if you violate one of the dimensions like height or width, then the bag isn't compatible. Other airlines have linear restrictions which mean as long as the sum of the dimensions is within the limit, then the bag is ok. Hiking bags have weird dimensions so the bag will be more compatible with linear restrictions.

What reviewers said
- "The Neekfox allowed me to have something more functional for casual walks around the city (and more importantly, outside!) while still carrying my daily supplies (laptop, Switch, some cables, and on a recent occasion a Roland JU-08 sound module for a recording session).The first thing I noticed when opening the box -- this is a surprisingly well-made bag and a great deal of care went into making it. It’s not what I expected at the price point (an incredible value)..."
- "The pack seems durable enough that I can just leave it there in the heat or the cold and it won't deteriorate. So far it's holding up well after taking it on a few hikes with me. The pack is comfortable if you pack it correctly (You need spare clothes or soft materials on the back so it molds to your back when you carry it). This little pack can hold a lot of stuff it's actually shocking..."
