Aer Travel Pack 3 Small X-Pac

I never had a true, solid travel backpack until I started going to all the events in 2025. This might be the best backpack you can buy. I used to throw my laptop in one of those over-the-shoulder briefcase bags, which was totally stupid because all it carried was a laptop and a charger. Everything else had to go in my pockets.

Now I just carry this. Laptop, charger, whatever else I need, all in one bag. The middle compartment fits clothes or gear. It works perfectly as a personal item on a flight, fits under the seat, and then you can use it to get around town at your destination. I had to get the X-Pac version because the Ultra was out of stock, but the X-Pac is solid. I might go Ultra next time.

I was worried the water bottle pocket wouldn’t fit my 26-ounce Yeti, but it does. I’ve already converted two other people to buy this backpack based on my recommendation. Tons of pockets, great build quality, just a fantastic travel bag.
