Backpack

Perfect size to pack in your suitcase to have when you get to your destination. This is my second one. The first one developed a hole when the stitching came out.

Another Quality Product from SF Bags

Bought this packable backpack to replace the one my wife “borrowed” a year or so ago. If you are looking for a great travel bag, look no further than the packable duffel and the packable backpack from SF Bags.

Quality Pack

Didn't rate it a five due to the following: I purchased the pack because it is packable, its structure, water resistance, and size. Don't like the limp day packs. Where it could use improvement, without going to deep: A sternum strap is a must. A ventilated back panel is needed. And side pockets with some grip and give would be nice. No need to pick more, but I think these would be extremely beneficial.

Haven’t used yet but it looks just as advertised. Love the green color. Now my husband plans to order one too!

Design details

THE MAGICAL MATERIAL

With input from over 1000 customers, we set out to design a packable bag ideal for both travel and every day. 

 

To support multiple uses, we created a custom-made material that combines Taslan — a modern, high-tech woven fabric that feels good and substantial — with a layer of tricot mesh for structure and a water-resistant coating. 

 

This durable, lightweight textile still looks crisp and unwrinkled even after it has been stuffed or folded.   

A PACKABLE BAG FOR EVERY DAY

The Packable Backpack squishes down quickly and folds into its own pocket. Weighing less than a pound, it's designed for using in a pinch or for every day.

 

For extra comfort, you'll find features not found on most packable bag, like a strap lined with moisture-wicking mesh, interior lining, and pockets secured with waterproof zippers.

 

Good luck keeping this Packable Backpack packed up. 

HOW TO FOLD

 

1. Lay the Packable Backpack flat and take out the interior pocket. 

2. Fold into thirds toward the middle. Be sure to include the straps. 

3. Roll from the bottom toward the pocket.

4. Turn the pocket inside out and flip the roll into the pocket.

5. Zip it up and go.

THE PACKABLE BAG COLLECTION

These bags are designed to be both packable for taking on trips and usable for daily carry. The WaterField Packable Collection uses custom-made lightweight, durable, water-resistant material that stays crisp and wrinkle-free when unpacked.  This gives all the bags a clean, professional look. 

All the Packables fold into their own pockets so they can be stashed in your luggage without taking up much room. The Packable Backpack can hold small tablets and laptops in their own protective sleeve. The Packable Duffel expands to accommodate multiple items.

YOU MADE IT HAPPEN

We asked our community what their ideal packable bag would include. They told us they wanted the convenience of a packable bag with the functionality of a regular WaterField bag. 

 

Using the right textile was key, so we set about creating one that combined packability with style.

 

The community also had different ideas of the type of packable bag they wanted, so we created a collection. See the process from start to finish here.
