Best forWeekend trips and outdoor travel where weather might be a factor.Longer trips or gear-heavy travel.
Watch out forNo frame, so a full bag is rounder than a rigid carry-on.Too large for most carry-on limits when full.

Our take

The 40L suits weekend trips and may be a carry-on if packed carefully; the 55L is more at home in the hold. Soft bags change shape, so measure the packed bag against your airline’s limit.
