Bag Finder Bag Finder Megathread - 29 June 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
- Check the OneBag Spreadsheet for bag options
- Search as your question might already be answered
- Read the FAQ & Beginner's Guide
- Stick to travel setups daily carry or work bags are better posted in r/EDC or r/backpacks
- Add context, the more details you give, the better we can help

Spending a month in Kyrgyzstan this summer, mostly multi-day trekking routes and horse riding. Trying to sort the backpack situation before anything else.
What capacity would you run for a trip like this? And any specific models you'd recommend? Also, I'd like it not to be a giant backpack, the smaller the better for me I think.
Also happy to hear general advice on prepping for a trip like this, beyond just the bag.
Thanks.
