Sojourn Porter 46-Liter Recycled Nylon Travel Backpack

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Haven't had it out in the world yet, but this bag is beautifully thought out. Amazing amount of storage, enough for a 4-5 day trip. We'll be using this on a liveaboard dive trip, and as a way to carry our important dive gear on the plane. It has more than enough room for that. The backpack set up is great. Nice breathable backing, comfortable straps, and the way they fold up in the back sleeve is very well done.

It’s an ok bag, but there’s a lot of room for improvement. The biggest issue is that the straps aren’t very comfortable and realistically, you’d be using it as a backpack 80% of the time. There’s almost no organisation in the main compartment. It’s a little bit too tall - if they shaved off 4cm or so, you’d be able to take it on the plane; right now - you risk getting charged by the likes of Ryanair. Back support… there’s none. It’s not that comfortable to carry on your back when it’s full. Overall, it’s ok, but there are better options (AER). It’s a shame though, because this bag could be great, but they really need to address some shortcomings

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't like this pack when you compare it to the 2019 version I had. It seems like a downgrade. Disappointed they don't have a shoulder strap attachment so you can carry it around like a duffle. The main compartment also was a disappointed. They designed it so it slants downward near the top of the bag. The old version had an equal height all around the bag which helped with keeping your stuff from exploding out when you over pack or want jam something in. Now as soon as you open it, things tend to fall out a big easier because of that slant. Also I miss the zipper pocket that was on the front for smelly clothes and such. They now put that pocket inside the secondary pocket which sucks and limits space. Finally the padding on the handles is much thinner than before. Will probably be looking for another bag. I used to be a digital nomad for 5 years and used this paired with a 2015 version of the 32L escapist. So for long term travel, I would recommend another bag and avoid this one.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I waited until I had used the pack on several trips before writting my review. It's very spacious; in fact, I can't load it to full capacity because it would be too heavy. I love all the various pockets; it's easy to take on flights. It's about the size of a carry-on suitcase, fully packed. I haven't had trouble getting it into overhead bins. Comfortable to carry. Very pleased so far!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Incredible! Classic Osprey. The pack moves with you no matter how much gear you have in it. The suspension system design distributes weight evenly whether or not you pack it thoughtfully. So if you are in a hurry to catch that next flight, bus, etc. and you pack the bag quickly, it will feel the same as if you carefully organized all your gear. Not to mention unparalleled comfort. The shoulder and hip straps pack quickly and easily making security, putting the bag in the overhead compartment or simply packing your friends car to the brim, a BREEZE. The mesh pocket on the inside is great for your dirty laundry (but could be a tad bigger). The exterior straps synch down a PACKED 46L size bag to fit under *most* airplanes seats. Multiple padded handles allow you to maneuver your bag around with ease.
