Traveling By Duffel with Pakt

For the past seven years, Pakt has been designing a collection of travel and daily gear that experts have been raving about. Slings. Clip-in pouches. Backpacks. Even a coffee mug that took a team of engineers and designers.

However, when we trace back our roots, the Pakt story begins with the travel duffel.

Vintage shot (2017) of the crowdfunded Pakt One and Malcolm, the bag's designer & Pakt's founder.

The portability of a duffel and the organization of a suitcase. The Pakt One travel duffel was our first product, smashing our crowdfunding goal with a viral-online response to the unique design. After hundreds of trips and gathering feedback from our community, we sharpened our pencils and went back to the drawing board.

We refined the design on the Pakt One and created two sizes, 28L and 35L. Both feature our clam-shell design for more thoughtful organization that easily fits in the overhead bin. Additionally, we created the 25L Travel Duffel, a free-standing top-loader, designed to be the perfect companion for an overnight trip or a streamlined weekend. Like all our bags, our duffels are made with premium recycled materials and manufactured PFAS-free. 

For on-the-go productivity, our Operations Integrator, Melissa, prefers to carry-on the 25L Travel Duffel.  

“I love to use the 25L as my personal item. Fits perfectly under the seat in front of me. I use it for all my electronics, travel docs, and even tuck my purse in there.”

On the other side of the aisle, our Director of Product Design, Rawmin likes the organization that the clam-shell design gives him throughout a trip.

“The split case opening of the Pakt One allows me to use the bag at the destination, no need to unpack it.” 

From luggage pass-throughs to padded laptop sleeves, both duffels have expert-level travel features throughout, thoughtfully designed to simplify your travels and daily routines.
