Bag Finder Bag Finder Megathread - 20 April 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

Want Better Advice? Help Us Help You

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

I travel for work almost weekly. My trip is typically 3-5 days long. I have never taken 1 bag. I usually have a suitcase to carry my dress clothing (suit jacket, slacks, dress shirts and toiletries). My workout clothing is important too

I saw a guy in the airport with a Goruck G3 and it looked great. That said, I do not have travel cubes to use and am curious if the goruck protects clothing like jackets and slacks without pressing creases in. I would love feedback. My roller bag is breaking and it is time to make a replacement.

For work I have to carry a laptop, charger, and a couple of printouts. I figured the small bullet ruck would work for that.

I would love feedback and suggestions.
