I travel 365 days a year and live out of one backpack. Here is my travel gear setup. CuteThere are SO many cute backpacks for back to school. We’ve spent days pouring over thousands of packs. But we had a mission! This list contains backpacks that are both stylish AND comfortable. If the pack didn’t have cushioned shoulder straps that could withstand the massive weight of the many books we are required to lug around all day…it didn’t make the list. We will save those packs for the weekend and save our backs while we are it! Backpacks can be a big investment but when you think about it, we carry them five days a week and put a lot of wear on them. So, the list includes bargain, mid range, and splurge packs. The splurge bags are more of a financial commitment but they will withstand some mileage and years. Another thing to consider: Will you tire of the design? Is it cute but will it clash with your clothes every single day? We got you covered with classic designs that will go with everything you wear and never go out of style.

But that doesn’t mean we left out the bananas, stickers, and our little friend at the end! How could we resist? Custom Prospect BackpackCalling all designers.

After making the mistake to travel with a checked bag (albeit small) on our first trip together, we’ve decided to do whatever we can and stick to carry on only. Traveling as a couple means we can play with how it best works for us and right now we use two backpacks: a larger one and a smaller one.

They were picked in such a way to meet the size limitations of the airline we fly often. When you decide to pick up a backpack for your carry-on travel, make sure to check the size limitations of the airlines you fly with. You don’t want to carry a bigger than accepted backpack or a heavier one. One trick we use is to get them couple of inches bigger than the required size but we just don’t stuff them until they burst. In this case, if we need to put them in the “cage”, they easily fit in. >>read here about how to pack your back for carry on only travel I’ve put together a list of backpacks which can be good choices to get you started with carry-on only travel.
