Our legendary maximum size carry-on travel bag. Carry it as a backpack, shoulder bag, or duffel.

The Guide's Edition Synapse 25 takes all of the same clever features, bountiful organization, and top-shelf build of the original Synapse 25 and walks it all a bit further up into the mountains, a bit deeper into the woods. Rather than the all-too-common black zippers, hardware and webbing, the Guide's Edition Synapse 25 has gone terrestrial: it’s trimmed and lined in Coyote brown. The resulting aesthetic might be taken as an homage to another time; but to our sensibilities, bags trimmed in Coyote seem to be a little more at home in the great outdoors.

Customize your zipper pulls with color or your own custom knot pulls. Most of our bags come with a packet (or two) of Cord Zipper Pulls (the Aeronaut 30 , Tri-Star , Brain Bag , and Synapse 25 among many others). There are three advantages a cord pull can offer over a metal pull: the cord pull can extend the range of a metal zipper, it can wrap around the zipper and mitigate the jingle of the metal pull (you won't get as much of that "I'm being followed by a golden retriever" sound with cord pulls) and it can make the zipper easier to grab and use.

A clever travel sack that keeps clean and dirty clothes separated. Based on a design from our archives (circa 1981) and inspired by Tom's time hosteling around Europe, the Travel Laundry Stuff Sack works like this: start your trip off with the sack full of clean clothes, and as they become dirty, put them in the other end of the same sack. A floating divider midway keeps the clean and the dirty clothes separated. The volume of the clothing doesn't change, but the ratio of clean to dirty does. You don't need separate sacks for clean and dirty laundry anymore! Yeahh!

A good and strong duffel designed to pack your dog's stuff: extra leash, food, water bowl, Camp Mat and more. We started with our favorite classic duffel design, added some smart features, removed some stupid ones, and then put it all together with the best materials and stitching you can get. This is the duffel to take on road trips (for your stuff and your dog's stuff) or throw in the back of the truck filled with WCS (Worst Case Scenario) gear. And, sure, you can fly with it or take it to the gym. Webbing loops on the bottom and side for looping through our Lash Straps .
