Hey!

 Im after a little advice. See if anyone can suggest anything.

Im seeking a day bag. I dont want it too big or too small. about 30liters, As i would like to use it for "round town". I wouldnt want it to get int he way. I would also like to be able to take it as "carry on" hand luggage on a plane.  This means a max of:

  • 56 centimetres tall (22 inches)
  • 45 centimetres wide (17.7 inches)
  • 25 centimetres deep (10 inches)


Ill be traveling with it to aus, tazmania. so id like to be able to use it round town, on carry on. However also for day trips on the small ammount of hills i will seek out in what time i have. Also i will most likely (unless i can borrow one) use for cycling, i plan to have to cycle about 25km. Quite ffrequently. I get quite sweaty but dont like having no room to pack between badly imposing ventilation system.

is there anything people could suggest?

Try looking at the Berhaus Roam 30. Its not flashy, but it looked like a good bag when I took a look at it in the shop. I dont have one myself, but I would if I could justify it I think they also do a Berghaus 25 if the 30 is a bit too big.
