How to Choose a Travel Backpack (and Ditch Your Suitcase for Good)

Choosing the right travel backpack can make your trip dramatically easier — but choosing the wrong size, fit, or features can make traveling with it miserable. In this video, I’ll show you how I choose a travel backpack for real-world travel: what size you actually need, which features matter, how to make sure it fits properly, and how to avoid buying way more backpack than you need. I’ve been traveling backpack-only for years, and one of the biggest things I’ve learned is that bigger doesn’t automatically mean better. Whether you’re planning a short trip, long-term travel, or want to start traveling carry-on only, this guide will help you narrow down what actually makes sense for your kind of travel.
