Travel Collection: Hassle-Free Travel With The Toughest Bags & Packs.

Traveling abroad can be a life-changing and memorable experience, expanding your perspective of the world.

However, certain factors like sudden weather changes, heavy traffic, and delayed flights can cause stress, distracting you from fully enjoying your trip. Choosing the right bag as your reliable travel companion offers peace of mind for all the unexpected twists and turns on your adventure.

Whether you're embarking on a hiking trip, planning a weekend getaway, or jetting off with just a carry-on, Vanquest offers a wide range of versatile bags and packs to suit your travel and everyday carry (EDC) needs. You can keep your essential items organized, easily accessible, and enjoy a stress-free travel experience. Here's how to choose the ideal backpacks, organizer pouches, and packing cubes for your travel adventures.

Whether you’re hiking through heavy woods or traveling by air, you’ll want a durable pack that lets you explore with confidence and comfort. No one wants to deal with an uncomfortable backpack or experience a fabric or zipper failure while miles away from home. That's why Vanquest prioritizes comfort and durability with long-lasting performance in all our bags and packs.

When traveling, it often involves carrying your backpack for extended periods. For comfort, we design ergonomic carry into all bags & packs, so they ride comfortably and alleviate strain on your shoulders, back, and waist. This helps you to move with ease and reduces fatigue. On backpacks like the TRIDENT-21, we use ventilated mesh on shoulder straps & back panel with airflow channels for breathability. For larger packs such as the IBEX-35 backpack we include an adjustable shoulder harness/suspension system that accommodates for your torso length.

For unmatched durability, Vanquest uses military-grade Cordura fabrics, YKK zippers, and top-quality hardware. These materials have been trusted by military and outdoor users for decades due to their proven performance

Choosing the right-sized backpack is essential for a hassle-free travel experience. It helps you with efficient use of space, versatility for different trip lengths, and compatibility for carry-on travel. You can pack efficiently, stay organized, and enjoy freedom of movement while ensuring that your backpack is suitable for your travel plans. Consider the duration of your trip and mode of transportation when selecting a pack. To make sizing even easier, we include the volume capacity in liters in the names of our backpacks, such as the IBEX-26, which is a 26-liter bag.

On quick a day trip, the KATARA-16 sling backpack the right size for your overnight travel essentials. Inside, the main compartment fits an overnight change of clothes, and a padded sleeve holds a tablet or laptop.

If you need additional space, consider the JAVELIN-18 sling backpack, which features laptop/tablet compartments and organizing pockets for everyday carry (EDC) or travel essentials. This backpack can easily convert from double-shoulder to single-shoulder sling carry, offering both comfort and secure on-body access.

For a weekend getaway, the TRIDENT-21 backpack fits 1-2 days of clothes with built-in organization for your everyday carry (EDC) or travel items. Inside there’s space for a 15” laptop/tablet and a loop-lined interior with three padded dividers for customizable pockets and sections.

For a multi-day trip or traveling by air, the TRIDENT-32 backpack is the top choice. Its rectangular shape easily fits into the airline overhead bin as a carry-on. At 32-liter capacity, there’s space for 5+ days of clothes, travel essentials, and electronics, when packed efficiently. Inside, there is full loop lining and four padded dividers to create custom pockets/sections for your load-out. The rear compartment accommodates documents/folders, or a hydration bladder.

When traveling abroad in crowded areas, or on public transportation, you’ll want to keep your bags/packs on-body and easily accessible within your sight. This helps you avoid pickpockets looking for their next target and keeps your personal property secure.

Cross-body sling bags like the DENDRITE-Small provide a secure solution, allowing you to carry your essentials in front of you for added security. It’s a versatile sling bag that also doubles as a secondary personal-sized bag for air travel. DENDRITE-Large sling bag is perfect for storing your daily essentials, passport, and more while on the move.

To support your digital devices, tablets, and gaming units, step up to the TEKKO-4 or TEKKO-6 sling bags for weatherproof protection. These tech slings adapt to your lifestyle with multiple carry options for your devices and EDC in a manageable bag, helping to organize your life.

Thanks to its quick-adjust carry strap, the VERT sling is designed to be comfortably worn on either your chest or back, giving you carry options. True minimalists will enjoy the slim foot print and sleek carry profile of the VERT-5 tech sling with just enough room for a tablet, plus your daily essentials. While the VERT-7 sling bag supports your tech plus EDC items in a slightly larger overall footprint. These are the go-to slings when you don’t need a full backpack or larger carry bag

Keeping track of small, everyday carry (EDC) essentials simplifies your travel experience, ensuring they are well-organized, protected, while preventing loss and the cost of replacement. Organizer pouches are a portable and convenient way to carry many small items securely with quick access.

Our PPM, EDCM, and FTIM series organizers are perfect for daily carry, travel, preparedness, and toiletry kits. These pouches feature maximizer webbing, keeping small items secure and easily visible.

The Medical & First Aid series of pouches and bags helps you create first aid/trauma medical kits that keep you prepared for emergencies. They give you fast access to life-saving supplies when seconds matter.

Keep in mind that modular organization is creating your own kits for everyday carry (EDC), travel, or first aid. They can be transferred into your bags/packs or use MOLLE attachments for ease of carry.

Packing efficiently for travel helps you be mindful of what to pack, maximize the available space and save time unpacking/repacking items. Using a few packing cubes to organize your clothes and travel essentials can help make your travel experience more convenient and saves you from frantic digging through your luggage at the airport holding up security.

The STICKY CUBE-XS is a game-changer for efficient storage. These cubes come in five sizes (XS to XL), expanding in volume to store your travel supplies, and easily stick to any loop-lined surface.

For example, you can tightly roll your socks and underwear in a STICKY CUBE-Small or T-shirts and tops in a STICKY CUBE-Medium to save space. When you reach your destination, unpacking is a snap, and you can even separate dirty clothes as needed. For storing shoes, the STICKY CUBE-XLarge keeps them separated from your other travel supplies.

Travel is a significant part of the human experience, and having the right bags and packs can greatly enhance your travel adventures. We offer a diverse range of bags and accessories designed for travel, with a focus on comfort, durability, and versatility for our users. This includes choosing the appropriately sized backpack for efficient storage and comfort, as well as carrying a versatile sling bag for secure on-body access in crowded areas.
