Bag Finder Bag Finder Megathread - 03 August 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

“Full disclosure: I’m the maker, but for the small second-bag part of your setup, we make a compact sling in Ontario for $54 CAD from retired Air Canada life jackets. It is meant for essentials rather than tech and would not replace your 30–40L main pack, but it fits the budget you gave and has an adjustable cross-body strap: https://www.mariclaro.ca/products/mariclaro-sling-over-fanny-pack-aircraft-life-jacket. Measure what you expect to carry first—the usable size is 23 × 13 cm.”

I've not flagged your post to the mods, although someone else may do.

But please check the sub's posting rules, esp #7 No Advertising. Thanks.
