We're taking a look at two top of the line carry-on backpacks today, the Greenroom136 Rainmaker and the Osprey Ozone Duplex 65L. Both are high-quality packs, but offer some unique differences that may sway your decision depending on your needs.
Greenroom136's Rainmaker is a beast of a backpack in its dimensions. Standing tall at 40 inches, 28 inches wide, and 21 inches deep, it's a pack that values function above all else.

Reviewers can't sing enough praises about the bag's customizability options as well as its balance of sturdiness and versatility.
The Osprey Ozone Duplex 65L, on the other hand, is a slightly smaller 23 inches tall, 35 inches wide, and 54 inches deep.
