You can pack it almost like a small suitcase, and the internal compression straps keep everything from shifting around.

Water-Resistant Shell
Choose a soft Matte-X finish with a subtle raised X-pattern or glossy TPU with a subtle grid pattern. Both fabrics resist water and abrasion.
Padded Grab Handles
Two padded grab handles make it easier to lift your bag into an overhead bin or pick it up on the go.
Lockable Compartments
The main clamshell and laptop compartments have lockable zippers for added peace of mind in transit. YKK zippers and Duraflex buckles round out the hardware.
Front Admin Pocket
The pocket extends all the way to the base of the bag. Pockets are lined with soft fleece, perfect for scratch-prone items.

Pull on these straps to bring the top of the bag closer to your back for better load stability and a more comfortable fit.
Two Hidden Back Pockets
Keep your passport, cash, and small travel documents tucked into two discreet pockets against your back. Keep valuables close.
Dual Side Access
Reach into the main compartment from either side without opening the whole bag. Grab a sweater at the gate or a rain jacket when the weather turns.

Product
What’s the difference between Matte-X and TPU?
Both fabrics are water- and abrasion-resistant, with the main difference being their appearance.
Matte-X can pick up lint and pet hair, which can be easily removed with a lint roller.
- Matte-X: 500D nylon with Dyneema and TPU lamination. It has a matte finish with a subtly raised X-pattern.
- TPU: 600D polyester with TPU lamination. It has a slightly glossy finish with a grid pattern.
How much does the backpack weigh?
- Matte-X: approximately 1.76 kg / 3.88 lb
- TPU: approximately 1.71 kg / 3.77 lb
Are the shoulder straps soft or firm?
The OrthoLite® shoulder padding has a firmer, supportive feel. It’s designed to maintain support under a packed travel load.
If you strongly prefer soft shoulder straps, keep this in mind before ordering.
Is the backpack waterproof?
The backpack is water-resistant, not waterproof. Water can still enter through the seams, while the laptop compartment’s zipper opening has added protection from YKK water-resistant zippers.
For heavier rain, we recommend using a rain cover, available separately.
What’s included, and which accessories are optional?
The backpack includes six removable external compression straps, which can also secure additional gear to the bag.
The TrueFit Hip Belt, shoulder-carry strap, and rain cover are separate accessories unless explicitly included in the bundle you select. The hip belt and shoulder-carry strap are two different accessories; one does not convert into the other.
Which compartments can I lock?
The main compartment and laptop compartment have lockable zippers. The side-access zippers are not lockable.
You can attach the included removable external compression straps across the side-access openings to obstruct access and help deter theft.
Does the backpack stand upright when empty?
Yes, the backpack is designed to hold its shape and stand upright even when empty.
Is there a separate sleeve for a tablet or documents?
There isn’t a separate tablet or document divider inside the laptop compartment. The front vertical zip pocket can accommodate tablets or folders, but it is not a dedicated padded tablet sleeve.
Sizing
Is this backpack suitable for shorter people or smaller frames?
We generally don’t recommend this backpack for very small frames or shorter torsos. Please refer to our model images as a reference point when judging whether the backpack will suit your frame.
If you’re unsure, contact support@vrsatravel.com before ordering so we can help you assess whether it’s suitable.
Can I use it as a carry-on?
The VRSA Travel Backpack is designed for carry-on use. Compare its dimensions with your airline’s allowance for your specific ticket:
- Compressed: 51 × 30.5 × 20.5 cm / approximately 20 × 12 × 8 in
- Expanded: 51 × 30.5 × 22.5 cm / approximately 20 × 12 × 8.9 in
Dimensions are listed as height × width × depth.
How much does it hold?
The backpack offers 30 litres of capacity, expanding to 32 litres—approximately enough extra room for 3–5 lightweight shirts, depending on how you pack them.
Expansion increases its depth by approximately 2 cm / 0.8 in. Its boxy design makes it easy to pack with packing cubes and make the most of the available space.
What size laptop and water bottle will fit?
The laptop compartment fits laptops up to 17 inches.
The bottle pocket fits 32 US fl oz / approximately 946 mL bottles.
Will the hip belt sit correctly if I’m tall or have a long torso?
Hip-belt placement depends on your torso length and how the backpack sits on your body—not just your overall height. A belt can fit your waist while still sitting too high to provide the support you want.
If you have a particularly long torso, contact support@vrsatravel.com before ordering. We can help you assess the fit.
Is there a video showing how to fit and adjust the backpack?
Yes! Our fitting video walks you through adjusting the VRSA Travel Backpack, including the shoulder straps, load lifters, chest strap, and TrueFit Hip Belt.
