Why We Made It

We seek work/life/travel balance, so we designed a backpack that can go from weeklong to weekend mode with dedicated Lifezone and Workzone.

Sleek, stylish and sustainable, the expandable zipper offers flexibility to pack light, or expand as needed. Like our award-winning Carry-On Closet, the Venture comes with a FlowCloset™, our removable hanging closet to keep a week’s worth of clothes organized and easily accessible.

We’ve traveled far and wide, tweaked and tested, to perfect our multi-tasking everyday and travel day companion. Travel everywhere and work anywhere.

Features

Workzone:

  • Padded, fleece-lined laptop and tablet pockets 
  • Large organizer panel with multiple pockets for all your work and tech essentials
  • USB-charging cable pass-through for on-the-go charging
  • Enhanced ergonomic foam padding for extended carry comfort 
  • Hidden, zippered lumbar pockets to keep valuables safe

Lifezone:

  • Signature FlowCloset™ system 
  • Two large internal zippered pockets
  • Anti-scratch zippered sunglass pocket 
  • Two expanding side pockets
  • Suitcase seatbelt 
  • Adjustable sternum strap 
  • Drawstring dust-cover doubles as a shoe or laundry bag

Versatile, well built & effective

I wanted a bag that would expand for travel and collapse for daily use. This bag was perfect. The removable closet allowed for quick unpacking. Comfy to wear all day in an airport. Plus it’s made from salvaged ocean plastic. Makes me feel like I’m doing something good for the planet & wont need to replace it for ages.

Great, flexible bag but pretty heavy. With a heavy production laptop, it feels very hefty. Seems well made. Attractive, clean design.
