Passenger 27L 2.0 Bag

I’m a military guy, so I appreciate durable, functional gear. This is exactly that! There are some nice touches to this bag, including the passport pouch, magnetic roll-top opening, soft pocket for sunglassss, and the rear access zipper. I also really appreciate the depth of the water bottle nets. All in all, a very thoughtful design. Now I want the bigger one!

Going to Europe this summer and needed a sturdy bag with lots of pockets. This bag is exactly that. Good size for a “personal item” on a flight.

I was in bad ned of a work backpack upgrade, and this fit the bill. Great room for folders and I loce the LapTop Access "Back Door". I have been using it now fora bout a week and have had two separate comments on what a nice looking bag it is. Planning to use it on a short hike this weeked, so we will see how it performs in the wild. Thank you!

This backpack is fantastic! Based on someone else's review, I ordered it for my trip to Japan. So glad I did! There's a perfect little pocket on the back for your passport. Kept all my things safe and organized. Kept my waterbottle in one of the mesh pockets, my sunglasses and gloves in the other. The magnetic closure is awesome and I love how it closes like a dry bag. It's stylish, comfortable. Can't say enough good things about it.

This is my second Roark backpack, first being the 55l Mule. This bag is a great, everyday carry bag but also worked out great for me for international travel. Lots of little compartment and hidey-holes - It's pretty water resistant and quite comfortable. I made some additions such as a hip belt and stash pack that made it great for hiking and lugging more stuff than I'm sure it was designed for. It's great for my valuables/devices as well since it's relatively pickpocket-proof (as much as can be expected & more). There are multiple ways to attach additional gear to the outside; which is always a plus. The only addition I'd like to see is compatibility with a hydration bladder, but that's something I'm sure could be rigged up easily.

This bag is the bomb. I love the magnetic top and all the pockets.

Quality piece of equipment

Very good quality. The side access pocket is very useful.

OK bag. But not more.

I purchased the blue version from Roark, and I have to say, it's been an awesome experience! I've been putting it through its paces in some pretty rugged conditions, and it’s held up really well. The quality is top-notch, and it's clear that the gear is designed to handle the "trials and tribulations" that come with real-world use. What really stands out to me is the durability, accessibility, and how stylish it looks. Whether I’m for work or for everyday things like the gym or to run errands or even travel , it’s been reliable, functional, and stylish. Would definitely recommend, I want to buy all the colors now!

Bought for my dad who took it on a 24 day motorcycle trip up and down the east coast through rain and back roads. Kept gear and electronics safe. Comfortable for 8 hours of riding.

awesome bag! not too large, but carries a lot. really well made with durable seams and zippers too. I traveled all over Ireland with it and it was perfect. carry groceries in it every week. most surprisingly is the balance, i have put up to 20 pounds in it and it sits so nicely on my back it never feels heavy to me.

Awesome deep pockets. love the design. awesome on the back.

Looks small but holds a ton of stuff. Very nice!

When I originally ordered this bag, the order went through but the bag was actually OOS - and Roark sent me a $50 rebate to use on my 2nd choice. The bag I ended up choosing had a wear issue with the water bottle pocket, and Roark replaced the bag for free. I dig the gear - but that's almost beside the point. When you have customer service like this, it keeps you coming back. The design of this bag is thoughtful, and the moving parts have held up for me well. Highly recommend!
