30L Drifter 3.0

SOLD OUT - Check back for the 30L Drifter 4.0 in the second half of 2023.

Convertible. Modular. Carryon Approved. Nicknamed our “Mobile Closet”, the 30L SOVRN Drifter 3.0 is a rugged travel backpack designed to maximize budget airlines’ smaller overhead compartment while also fitting below every airline seat*.

The bag quickly converts from “backpack mode” to “duffle/carryon mode” with the roll top designed to unroll and cover up the shoulder straps, resulting in a more manageable experience when traveling with multiple bags, such as a personal item backpack (28L Ambassador 2.0) and/or gear bag (surfboard, snowboard, golf, etc.).

The 30L Drifter 3.0 is our entry level convertible carryon backpack and comes included with 8 modular components: 4x removable economy compression straps, 2x removable padded handles, 1x removable messenger strap & 1x removable chest strap

Maximize your carryon allowance on budget airlines and skip the checked luggage carousel with SOVRN Republic travel backpacks.
