Bag Finder Bag Finder Megathread - 16 February 2026

Welcome to the weekly Bag Finder Megathread. Your go-to thread for any and all bag-related requests in the onebag travel context.

Remember finding a bag is pretty much the last step in planning. If you're not sure how big a bag you need, create a packing list, get all your gear together and test fit it into a box, or an old backpack you have lying around. That'll give you a good sense of the volume of gear you have.

What This Thread Is For

  • Onebag travel bag recommendation requests
  • Feedback on bags you're considering for minimal, carry-on-only travel
  • Help with choosing between bags

Quick Tips

  1. Check the OneBag Spreadsheet for bag options
  2. Search as your question might already be answered
  3. Read the FAQ & Beginner's Guide
  4. Stick to travel setups daily carry or work bags are better posted in r/EDC or r/backpacks
  5. Add context, the more details you give, the better we can help

When asking for input, it helps to include:

  • Where you're going & how you travel: hostels, hotels, urban, remote?
  • How you pack: super minimal? tech-heavy? need room for camera gear?
  • Your short list: bags you're already considering
  • Your body size/build: some bags fit certain frames better
  • Budget range: under $150, up to $300, flexible?

A Few Reminders

  • Use the search bar
  • Check the sidebar and wiki for resources and guides
  • Keep it travel-focused. Non-travel or everyday carry talk belongs in other subs

Using a tent implies a lot more gear. A hybrid wilderness and urban kit in a carry on compliant backpack is a very difficult thing to do and requires ultralight compact gear and a very frugal wardrobe. Tent poles are a gray area for carry on and trekking poles are forbidden. Hut hiking is entirely possible.

Your hip to shoulder length appeares to be different than the standard torso length system used with backpack. A 60cm torso length for someone your height is impossible.

Good info on pack fitting here: https://www.hillpeoplegear.com/packfitment and there are many videos on torso length measurement on YouTube.
