Surely the world’s most adaptable travel pack?

Tropicfeel's game-changing modular travel backpacks are already whipping up a bit of a cult following. Seriously expandable and comfortable, each pack is at the core of a sort of 'ecosystem' of bolt-on accessories – making them incredibly versatile and adaptable. Take the Shelter pack, their most technical and outdoorsy model. In its most streamlined configuration you can get it down to 30 litres, but expand it right out and the core bag will go up to 54 litres – with 12 more if you add on an optional extra front compartment. Just think about that for a second – the same rucksack could do double duty as a day pack for mountain hikes or a 65+ litre load-lugger for extended international backpacking trips. In its basic form, the Shelter is a superb bit of kit, but part of the fun with Tropicfeel packs is deciding how you're going to mod them. Accessories that would be on our wish list are the 'wardrobe' – an integrated clothes storage system that compresses your stuff down by up to 20% – and the 12-litre front pouch that detaches to become a fully waterproof daypack. New for autumn 2024 is the concealed V-strap attachment point on the front of the pack, allowing you to attach smaller pouches from the Tropicfeel range.

  • Tropicfeel are relatively new on the scene – but appropriately enough for a company that started out making ‘the world’s most crowdfunded shoe’, this Barcelona-based brand has hit the ground running. 

    Their story started in 2016, when co-founder Alberto Espinós and his mate returned from a backpacking trip to Thailand with a serious gripe. The problem, as they saw it, was that their gear just wasn't versatile enough. They were ponying around multiple sets of kit for various different activities, spread across a mismatched set of duffels, day-packs and bum-bags. 

    Alberto’s vision of travel was one where a single set of apparel would do for hiking, adventurous activities and city breaks, and where adaptable, modular luggage could be combined with an efficient 'ecosystem' of accessories. Working from the ground up, he began by designing a multi-functional travel shoe, pitching it straight to a worldwide community of globe-trotters through an ambitious and meticulously planned crowdfunder. 

    What followed was one of the most successful Kickstarter campaigns ever to come out of Spain, and Tropicfeel have been quietly rewriting the backpacker rulebook ever since.

    What's kind of special about Tropicfeel is an obsessive desire to move forward – to make each new product and iteration that bit cleverer and more versatile than the last. They're also hugely conscious of their own impact, with recycled materials and ethical manufacturing at the heart of pretty much everything they do.  

It is a very practical and comfortable backpack. I love it.
