Greenroom136’s Rainmaker bag is a trooper. Not only is it crafted out of 1000D Cordura—a fabric renowned for its toughness—but it is also impressively water-resistant. Standing tall at 40 inches, this bag has the capacity to contain up to 22 liters. This is conveniently more than enough room for your essential electronics; you can safely fit a laptop up to 15 inches in its dedicated compartment. Furthermore, the Rainmaker is generous with its organization—a feature that conscious packers will truly appreciate. The bag is a perfect travel companion as it is compatible with all airlines.
In contrast, the Aer Go Pack is designed for those who value style and compactness. Despite its relatively smaller size of 13 inches height, this bag doesn’t compromise with its 21.4 liters capacity. It’s got the versatility where it counts. Made of 300D Cordura ripstop exterior, the Go Pack is as robust as it is sleek. It also impressively caters to slightly smaller 13-inch laptops. What sets the Aer Go Pack apart is its slim nature that allows it to lay extremely flat—think the height of two folded t-shirts. 84% of airlines compatible, this packable bag is quite the trendy traveler companion.
