Cotopaxi Allpa 35L Travel Pack

Currently using this allpa travel pack on a trip and its been so great. It has all the organization needed and is comfortable to wear. The biggest reason i needed a new traveler bag was for the shoulder and hip straps. This is perfect for me.

I would rate this 5 stars-I do really love the bag but I got it and the zipper started ripping away from the bag fabric. When I got the bag, I immediately packed for my trip and left town. That area by one of the zippers on top of the bag that had already started ripping as I was leaving and is getting worse as I’m still traveling with the bag. I hope I might be able to have it fixed by Cotopaxi, especially since it is still in warranty. I did not notice the rip when I got it out of the packaging, but I suspect that the way it was sewed was faulty but I do not believe I was putting an unrealistic amount of pressure on the bag when it started ripping. Can I send it back when I return from my trip in a few days to be repaired? Once again, I like the rest of the bags features. Thanks!

I took my backpack to Norway - it was a champ fitting under the plane seat in front of me, being light enough to navigate through planes and trains and crowded tourist streets. SO glad I got the size I did thanks to the seasoned customer in the shop who recommended a smaller size than I was looking at - specifically because it fits so nicely under seats. Love the colors, too - color me happy with this purchase!

A friend of mine had this pack and highly recommended it, so I decided to give it a go for a month-long trip abroad. For context, I don't own luggage, am an over-packer, and this is only my second international trip, so I was really going in blind. Honestly, I was attracted to this Cotopaxi bag in particular because it looks fantastic in some of the Del Dia colorways. The one I chose has a beautiful purple outer panel, and the best mix of bright colors on every other part. I took it as a carry-on bag (very full: 1. 5 weeks' worth of multi-weather clothes, one of those hanging toiletry bags, an extra duffel folded very small for souvenirs, etc. ) on two sardine-packed Lufthansa flights to Georgia. It was technically a little bit over the dimensions, especially being so full (definitely over weight), and I did get funny looks from other passengers for having the largest and most colorful carry on bag. That said, even when passengers were being asked to check their wheeled luggage because the plane was so full, no one said anything to me. It also fit perfectly in the overhead. With this and a NF backpack as my personal item I was able to bring everything I could need for such a long trip without having to check a bag. The plane went well; now for the train. Traveling in the Republic of Georgia, I went to four different cities by train with this bag alone for almost a week. Again, it fit perfectly in the overhead, even very full (I couldn't leave much behind). The outer pockets are extremely convenient for easy passport/wallet/Nintendo Switch access (yes, I could fit my entire Switch in its carrying case into the large front pocket) and provide very welcome organization. I also really appreciated the laptop pocket because the inner sleeve fit my 10 inch Kindle, while the larger pocket is slim enough that I felt comfortable hiding my passport, ticket, and wallet there for easy access on my back without worrying about them falling out. I also couldn't feel them poking me through the padding. As far as the smaller features go, all of them are great. The corner gear straps aren't the most practical for larger things unless you have your own cord to lash on there, but I used a carabiner to hang a hat from one and strapped a neck pillow to another. The smallest zipper pockets are useful to keep me organized, and the two big ones inside are each a great size. I would definitely recommend packing cubes for the largest pocket if you're planning on a trip as long as mine, but you could go without if you have less stuff. The water bottle pocket is super stretchy and holds my tapered-bottom water bottle securely (30-oz. Owala). The best thing about this bag, in my opinion, is that you can stuff it entirely full with two weeks' worth of things or you can use it as a weekender. It's a big bag, but when left unstuffed it doesn't look comically huge. I'm 5'8" and a woman so it is a bit big on me when full, but the hip belt also helps to displace some of the weight effectively. It does get tiring to carry after a while and will poke into your shoulders, but probably only when it's very heavy. It's extremely comfortable to wear for short periods. It feels much lighter on my back than I would expect. Overall, I highly recommend this bag. Definitely get it in a unique, colorful, and sustainable Del Dia colorway if you don't mind standing out a bit while traveling. I recommend reading the PackHacker review on this bag before buying it as well.

The bag is really comfortable at first instance. I love how the bag has multiple pockets and they’re are curated very nicely keeping in mind the user needs. The straps are nice and wide which is very comfortable while traveling. The bag is now my go-to for any travel.

I was really nervous about buying the Del Dia version but I am so happy I did! I love the colors and I love how unique it is.

Came in exactly like the photos, seems sturdy and super cute! Backpacking for two months in South and Central America, and can’t wait to take it along with me! Definitely was pricey, but I think worth it!🩷

Really solid pack - great features, space, materials, comfort, style, and (most importantly) sustainably made!
