Best Business Travel Backpacks

Each Knack travel backpack has a spacious dedicated compartment for everyday items, tech accessories, and traveling essentials. But what really makes these travel business backpacks fundamentally different is our patented suitcase compartment designed to expand when you need it and zip away when you don’t. With our business backpack design, travel becomes effortless because of the thoughtful functionality we’ve put into each backpack. With dedicated pockets for laptops and everyday work essentials, these work backpacks are an all in one solution for your business travel needs. For frequent flyers who are on the go for business, you want easy access to your bag’s main compartment for easy packing and unpacking. The functionality of our suitcase compartment with an expandable design does just that: it makes packing and unpacking for business travelers seamless. Trolley sleeves, TSA locking zippers, and carry-on compliance are just a few additional features that put Knack’s business travel bags at the top of their class. Whether you're heading out for a quick business trip or just commuting to the office, your Knack Pack pulls double duty as the perfect work backpack and luggage, and keeps you moving with ease and confidence.

Whether it turns into a longer trip or just an unexpected detour, your Knack Pack shifts easily from everyday backpack to expandable backpack, so you're always ready for what's next.

  • Trolley Sleeve

    Sometimes, your trips require a big piece of wheeled luggage. Don’t worry, it’s easy to bring your Knack Pack along too. Our integrated trolley sleeve lets you slip your Knack over the handle of almost all sizes of wheeled luggage. Designed for life on the go, your Knack Pack doubles as a sleek business backpack that meets the everyday needs of the frequent business traveler.

About Knack

Finally, say goodbye to the hassle of juggling multiple bags! Knack sprang from a simple observation that too many people were carrying too many bags at the same time, leading to an epidemic of overloaded shoulders and cluttered lives.

We pulled together a passionate group of frequent travelers and bag enthusiasts (from Tumi, Coach, North Face, Samsonite, and eBags) and created a revolutionary expandable backpack that transitions as easily from work to working out as it does from a client meeting to a weekend with friends. We called this backpack a Knack Pack and it was the first everyday bag that’s clever enough to replace two.

While Knack today is more than just backpacks, each of our products’ innovative designs and thoughtful features continues to help you effortlessly carry everything you need, while keeping you organized and hands-free at the same time. Experience the difference that Knack makes in every journey.

My new Knack Pack is simply fantastic. It offers everything I’ve needed in a one-in-all bag for short business trips and day-to-day work trips to the office. Intelligently designed with ample storage space and zippered pouches. High quality craftsmanship for durability and aesthetics. Could not be happier with my purchase. Highly recommended. Will purchase again as gifts for fellow travelers.

John S. • Series 2 Medium Expandable Knack Pack®

I am beyond impressed with this bag! Having owned many bags over the years, this one definitely stands out as the best. What truly sets it apart is the exceptional storage capacity—it’s perfect for both everyday carry and travel. The thoughtful design allows for efficient organization without compromising on style or comfort. The color and feel of the material are fantastic, and I love the durability it offers. It's refreshing to see a New England-based company creating bags tailored for busy leaders who need to pack heavy yet travel light. This bag has exceeded all my expectations, and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase!

How does the Knack travel backpack compare to other brands?

The Knack travel backpack is the best business backpack for frequent travelers and daily commutes. With padded shoulder straps, a dedicated laptop compartment, spacious main compartment, and zippered pockets, it keeps work essentials, tablet, phone, and accessories organized and easy to access. Its lightweight material and style make it perfect as a personal item for airport travel, school, or life on the go. One single bag holds plenty of stuff, from shoes to a briefcase or messenger bag, so you can travel smart without compromise.

Does the Knack Pack fit under airplane seats and in overhead bins if I have to go on a business trip?

Yes! We specifically designed the Knack Pack to meet airline carry-on requirements because nobody has time for checked bag fees or the anxiety of wondering if your presentation materials will make it to your destination. It slides smoothly under most airplane seats (perfect for those long flights when you need your laptop or snacks), and fits comfortably in overhead bins without that awkward wrestling match everyone's watching. You know that relieved feeling when your travel bag actually fits? That's what we're going for every single time.

Is the Knack Pack durable and professional-looking enough for business settings?

Absolutely. We get that you need something that can handle the wear and tear of constant travel while still looking polished enough for client meetings and boardroom presentations. Our premium fabrics and clean, sophisticated design mean you can confidently carry it from the airport to the conference room without switching bags. It’s the best business backpack for professionals who want durability and style in one daily carry. This travel pack is built tough enough to survive baggage handlers and busy terminals, but refined enough that it actually elevates your professional image instead of detracting from it.

Are Knack Bags comfortable and practical enough to carry around at conferences and for extended business travel days?

Trust us, we've been there – we know how heavy your bag can get during those all-day conferences where you're walking miles between sessions, carrying everything you might possibly need. Each Knack has ergonomic, padded shoulder straps and a comfort-cool memory foam back panel to keep you comfortable all day. The quick-access pockets mean you can grab your business cards, phone, or notebook without unpacking everything in front of customers and colleagues. After those marathon business trips, your Knack bag helps you come home feeling less wiped out—making it a little easier to switch into “you time”.
