Hey mate. Im looking at buying one of these bags to commute to work on my push bike. Just tossing up between the 32 and 42L. I’m going to ride to gym then to work. So I’ll have work clothes, shoes, spare change of workout gear, lunch, bottle and few other bits. Do you think this would fit in the 32 or should I get the 42L? I’m leaning towards the 42L cause in winter I may need space for longer gear too. It’s an ideal bag cause it’s got the compartment for shoes and also a bottle holder on the side of the bag. The big opening makes life easier accessing things when I get to gym rather than having to unpack the whole backpack to get the shoes at the bottom. Any advice is appreciated. Cheers
Hey! I'd recommend the 32L for gym/work bags. The 42L would be a bit overkill, think of a full size carryon bag as the 42L size. Also the 32L has the bottle holder on the side, the 42L doesn't have that. The separate shoe compartment on the side is really nice to have!
The 42L is too big to fit under an airplane seat. The 32L might squish under it, but I find my 25L backpacks do tend to fill up most of the area under an airplane seat
Carry on size airline/TSA limits is 22 x 14 x 9 inches. (exception Southwest airlines is 24x16x10) This bag is listed as ~ 23 x 15 x 10 inches. Since it's soft and if you don't stuff it too full it's a very good carry on. If you're a stuffer then the 32L version would be better at 22.7'' x 13.8'' x 8.7' but you loose the 2 wide carry handles
Correct, I've stuffed it full and I still have had no issues using it as a carry on bag. And it still looks smaller than most other bags when I put it in the airline overhead compartment
I'll try to get to it one of these days! I haven't used the 32L version yet since I always end up going with the 42L for all my trips. The design of the 32L is just like the 42L except it also has a pocket to insert a water bottle on the outside. I could see the 32L great to use as a day/gym bag
@@kirbykaikai I went with the 42 ans its perfect for a weekend get away. The bags are actually smaller than the specs say. The 42 works perfect for a carry on as well.
For outdoor use and gear I'd go with the Regular Base Camp (more heavy duty). For everyday use whether between work and home or flights and hotels I'd go with the Voyager series since it has better compartment storage, a wider base, and a clothing divider inside
@@justinsmith2530 yeah! It's the perfect carryon. I've used this bag as a carry on for 6 separate flights and lots of weekend trips. Honestly it's my favorite travel bag now. The zippers feel great compared to the original Base Camp and the divider in the middle held up perfectly in all my trips
The material itself is water proof/resistant, but not the zippers. The top main compartment lid does have overhang past the zippers to help keep rain away from the zippers when laid down flat
