If you’re obsessed with every tiny item having its own home, you can’t go wrong here. It has a grand total of seven exterior pockets in addition to the main compartment, which might be the most I’ve seen on any backpack, ever. But combine this with the lack of hip belt and the relatively high weight, and I think this is a pack that will more likely work for larger people than smaller people. This is only something that’s going to happen for smaller people, so if you’re any larger than I am (I wear a men’s size small t-shirt), then you’re going to be fine. The straps on the Aer are also just a teensy bit closer together, meaning that when tightened up as snugly as I would have liked, the straps started digging into my neck on either side, so I had to wear it just a bit lower than usual. For comparison, the Minaal’s are 2.5″ wide, and my Synapse 25 has them at about 2.4″. On the subject of straps, this is another area in which this pack will work for certain people, but not others the straps are a little wider than I’ve seen elsewhere, at 3.25″ wide. That sternum strap could be removable, which hopefully is a change we’ll see for the next version. But those grab handles on the top and side are certainly useful, especially for getting it in and out of overhead bins. But if you only ever use it as a backpack, and never check it, then you might be fine with this (especially since it’s designed to be a mini-carry-on, which is smaller than North American carry-ons). One of the things this pack does differently from some of the other travel backpacks out there is that it’s only a backpack the straps don’t store away anywhere, and there’s no shoulder bag option. Weight is definitely going to be one of the drawbacks to this pack, as it’s one of the heaviest I’ve seen (just behind the GoRucks), but because it has more built-in organization than just about anything out there, you might carry (and buy) fewer items like packing cubes as a result.
It was a little heavier on my scale at home than the listed weight, but it was fairly close. It’s packed with features, but let’s start with the numbers. Here it is: It also comes in grey, but it sure looks great in black.

If you’re organizationally obsessed, you’ll definitely want to give this a look.Īer sent me a free test sample to try out, and I’ve had it for a couple months now. Here’s what I think. It has more organizational options than just about anything else I’ve seen, along with the conveniences of laptop storage, panel-loading access, and carry-on dimensions. The latest offering I’ve had the chance to try is the Aer Travel Pack, from a small company that got its start in workout bags, and have entered the travel backpack market with quite a strong offering.
Back several years ago I was going crazy with just one or two options, and then a perfect storm of a bunch of pissed-off travelers with enough free time to deal with this problem all seemed to hit the market at the same time, and more and more people have realized how much better everything could be ever since. The wonderful world of travel backpacks is getting better and better every day.
