Pacsafe Venturesafe X30 Adventure Backpack

Take one stroll across the main plaza in Lima, Peru’s historic center and you’ll buy this pack from a brand Active Junky’s proven in domestic and international travel scenarios.  Even without TSA-approved locks in place, this PacSafe backpack makes it harder for friendly fingers to ply their trade.  A list of top security features somehow gets worked into a pack that, by all appearances, is one to carry for casual as well as on-trail day pushes.  From blocking more sophisticated intrusions using RFIDsafe technology to defying slash-and-run attempts with eXomesh, Venturesafe is 30L of pure perseverance.  Testers accepted the notched up weight at 1.1kg given the total package that includes legitimate back padding, straps and right-sized waist belt (which testers recommend should be made removable). Many of the extra features such as mini carabiner zipper locks add only grams. And the integral raincover is a wise move with hook-and-loop flap access that takes some pulling power.  In addition, everyday and commuting use are viable as a 15” laptop finds a home through a secure top-zip main compartment. Active Junky recommends this premium pack as a carry-on and constant companion upon arrival, knowing its part of PacSafe’s “lock and leave” travel luggage system.
