This is gear built for serious use. Look for options with high-tenacity, water-repellent fabrics and protective TPU coatings. You’ll find backpacks with advanced adjustable back systems like Osprey’s Airscape for a superb fit on the trail. Our wheeled luggage features large, all-terrain wheels and tough frames for rough ground, while our duffels often include stowable shoulder harnesses for easy carrying to basecamp. It’s the perfect gear-hauling solution for your climbing, hiking, and overseas adventures.
The Osprey Farpoint/Fairview 70L Travel Pack is an excellent choice for versatility, featuring a detachable daypack and lockable zippers. For rugged adventures, the Mountain Equipment Wet & Dry Roller Kit Bag offers durability with waterproof tarpaulin and reinforced wheels.
The best type depends on your trip:
- Backpacks: Ideal for trekking or multi-day hikes.
- Duffel Bags: Great for flexible packing and bulkier gear.
- Wheeled Luggage: Perfect for urban or airport travel.
Avoid:
- Luggage without durable materials (e.g., weak zippers or thin fabrics).
- Bags lacking secure compartments or lockable zippers.
- Overly heavy designs that add unnecessary weight to your load.
Carry-on luggage sizes vary by airline. For instance, British Airways allows 56 x 45 x 25 cm, while Ryanair permits 55 x 40 x 20 cm. Always check your airline’s policy to ensure your bag meets size and weight requirements.
Select luggage based on your trip length and airline policies. Lightweight, durable materials like polycarbonate or ballistic nylon are ideal for frequent travelers. Ensure it has sturdy wheels and handles for convenience.
Use packing cubes to organise items, roll clothes to save space, and place heavier items at the bottom for stability. Maximise space by utilising pockets and compartments in your luggage.
