Tom on designing the Convertible Packing Cube/Backpack:

"I designed the Convertible Packing Cube/Backpack as a result of customer requests from our forums; in fact, I think it's the first product we've made that was 100% inspired by customer feedback. Many of the details, of course, reflect my design experience, and my sewing crew helped to refine some of the subtleties of the construction. Overall, it was truly a group effort.

Darcy and I took the prototype on our trip to Alaska in June of 2008, and we used it everyday: for grocery shopping, for organizing the trunk of the car, even for a short day hike. It's light-weight, compactable, and yet, because of the Dyneema ripstop fabric, tough as nails." -- Tom

The Convertible Packing Cube/Backpack is a Packing Cube that can be used with our Aeronaut or Western Flyer carry-on travel bags to organize and keep your clothing neat and separated from the other items in the bag. Once you reach your destination, you can remove the contents of the Packing Cube and right-side it out, transforming it into a backpack with two compartments, an "o-ring" for attaching a Guardian Light, Key Strap, or Clear, Padded, Cordura or Cork Organizer Pouches, and webbing backpack straps that are surprisingly comfortable for lighter loads.

It's a great, dual-function bag for those who travel light and need what they take with them to be lightweight and multi-tasking. Plus, the Convertible Packing Cube/Backpack gives you the option of bringing home more than you took with you (gifts, souvenirs, etc.) -- use it as an additional carry-on bag on your return flight.

Designed to fit into the main compartments of the Aeronaut and Western Flyer carry-on bags.
