Western Rise has done it again! Their first foray into the world of backpacks is nothing but a success. Sitting right at 3lbs this is a definite contender for best travel backpack of 2025! Worried about only traveling with 35L? Fret not since this bag definitely feels more like 40L in terms of capacity. The aesthetic is premium and clean, with minimal branding, and hideaway everything. A weather resistance coating and YKK aquaguard zippers means you can probably skip on the rain shell as well. Coming in at $338 USD means this bag is right around average for bags of this quality and size, although it feels very premium.

The only complains I had were the nylon webbing style hipbelt (never liked these) and the sort of grab handle strap around the outside. However the bag is surprisingly comfortable even fully packed out so I never missed the hip belt and appreciated that it was removable. I was pretty rough when testing the handles to see if the stitching would be a failure point but it seems incredibly well put together, so I think it's more of a personal aesthetic choice.

Long story short, this is a great bag by a great company. Western Rise has been focused on making one bag gear from the very beginning and it is no wonder that this bag was backed in under 2 hours on kickstarter. If you have any questions or comments please leave them down below!
