About Knack

Knack sprang from the simple observation that too many people were carrying too many bags at the same time. This aha moment spurred our passion to live a One Bag Life. So we pulled together a dedicated group of frequent travelers and bag enthusiasts––from Tumi, Coach, North Face, Samsonite, and eBags––to create the one bag that’s clever enough to replace two.

Travel Backpacks for Men FAQs

Will my laptop and tech gear fit securely in a Knack Pack?

Each Knack Bag features a padded compartment that fits laptops between 15" and 17", depending on the Knack Pack size selected (some customers even report fitting multiple laptops in certain Knack Packs!). In addition to the dedicated laptop compartment, every Knack Pack offers pockets for chargers, headphones, and other electronics, ensuring there is a specific spot for both your laptop and other tech items.

Are Knack Packs water-resistant and easy to clean for travel?

All Knack Packs use premium water-resistant fabric and durable YKK reverse coil zippers, making the bag water-resistant and easy to spot clean after both short and long trips.

Are Knack Packs comfortable for all-day carry?

Knack Packs all have adjustable padded straps and reinforced back panels, which are designed for comfort, even on broader shoulders, or when worn for extended periods.

Can Knack Packs handle both work trips and weekend adventures at one time?

Absolutely. The Knack Pack’s expandable design lets it transition from professional carry during the week to spacious travel mode for short trips or weekend getaways. With dedicated compartments for tech, clothes, and daily essentials, it delivers the versatility, organization, and durability men need for both business and leisure travel.

Testimonials

This bag solves a problem for me. I regularly go on multi day business trips and I like traveling with a backpack instead of a roller. Large multi day backpacks are great for this but leave you without an obvious “day pack” option unless you pack one into your large bag. The Knack 2 lets me pack days of clothes (I get 4+), unpack at your destination, and then turns into a sleek day pack. Materials seem top notch and the organizing features are incredibly easy to use. I have tried and owned travel packs like this from several different companies and this one is head and shoulders above the rest for flexibility and quality.

From working as a traveling MA, to taking weekend trips across the country, to traveling overseas, to now medical school, this backpack has consistently been amazing. I have so many positive things to say, but to just pick a few, the expandable compartment is so useful when I need it and so easy to forget when I don't, the exterior and interior have held up far better than any backpack I've ever owned, and the layout of all the pockets is so well designed that I can't remember the last time I had to dig around looking for something at the bottom of the bag, especially with small things which fit perfectly into the many small pockets near the top of the compartments.

Yes. What a versatile bag. Short trip, medium trip, concise longer trip. Does it all. Even fits a bottle of wine in each of the side pockets.

I began traveling a lot for a new job and my wife bought me the large expandable pack. I can carry a laptop, charging cords, and 4 days' worth of clothes (including a spare pair of shoes). The construction of this pack is incredible, and the convenience of not having to carry an additional roller bag is a gamechanger for me. This is one of those instances where you get what you pay for. Definitely recommend this product.
