Details & care
Our newly redesigned Allpas reflect our quest for pack perfection. While all the customer-favorite features of our bestselling packs remain, we made a few game-changing updates. New features include air mesh shoulder straps for an ultra-comfortable carry, better weight distribution, an exterior stretch water bottle pocket, and a luggage pass-through strap that easily slides over the handle of a roller bag (like our Allpa Roller Bags). Most importantly, our Allpas are now made with 100% recycled fabrics.

Favorite everyday AND carry-on backpack
This baby is the best! It's got the perfect mix of pockets to carry everything. I move around a lot - commute in to NYC for multiple days at a time for work, on construction job sites across the country and frequently traveling for work and weekend fun. it's the perfect mix of work bag - with enough space for my laptop, second monitor and electronics to support a couple days in the field, and it also has enough space to hold 3-4 days (I've lived out of it for over as week!) of clothing and my bath dop kit.
And when I put too much wear on it and Cotopaxi was amazing enough to help replace my very well worn bag.
I love the new additions of the external water bottle pocket, the tiny external critical gear pocket, and strap to securely reset. This bag on my carry on hard suitcase handle for longer travel.
Those three improvements joot every tiny gripe I had with this. And love the extra strap hook connection spots for the occasional additional gear.
11/10 🙌
Ok would be selecting everything in tht "favorite features" and how I use it. . . This is my go-to everything bag!!

The zips are broken
I loved the color of this bag but I now have to replace it for another one as the zips came broken and jammed. It was a gift for my husband and was sad to see that it did not live up to our expectation. We are exchanging for another bag and hope it works out.

Great!
I did some intensive research on this backpack, i knew i wanted it. Once i got it it’s exactly what i need for my daily needs. The make of the backpack is better quality than i thought and this should last for years to come with daily usage

Well designed and well made
I bought this to be my personal item when flying. I travel a lot for work, so I needed something that is functional, durable, and fits under an airplane seat. This bag checks all the boxes. It has tons of space and a lot of compartments to keep things organized. The top pockets are convenient for small items you need access to during a flight. The suitcase style makes packing and unpacking easy. But I can still keep a book and a large headphone case in the main compartment of the bag like a traditional back pack.
If I didn’t need so much gear for work I could do a three week trip with this bag and a carry on.

Game-changer for organized travel
I am incredibly impressed with this pack. The 28L size is perfect for short trips or as a dedicated carry-on. What really sets it apart is the internal organization—the mesh dividers make it so easy to pack and find everything instantly. The build quality is top-notch, the zippers are tough, and it’s very comfortable to wear. If you’re on the fence about the size or the price, just get it. It’s worth every penny.

So much room!
I love the Allpa 28L. It hold so much stuff and comfortable for long walks through the airport. The hard shell is durable and super easy to clean. I love all the pockets!
