SOLD OUT - Check out the 35L Drifter HD 3.0 (Economy Version)

or check back for the 35L Drifter HD 4.0 in the first half of 2023.

Convertible. Modular. Carryon Approved. Nicknamed our “Mobile Closet”, the 35L SOVRN Drifter HD+ 3.0 is our top of the line model, 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 35L Drifter HD+ 3.0 is the premium (“+”) variant of our heavy duty (HD) convertible carryon backpack and comes included with 11 modular components: 4x removable premium compression straps, 2x removable padded handles, 1x removable messenger strap, 1x removable chest strap, 1x removable waist strap set, 1x removable waterproof rain cover & 1x removable velcro divider

The “+” variant is an organizational beast, featuring 9 extra interior zippered stretch mesh compartments, a removable internal divider, a 2 way USB passthrough, upgraded compression straps with Trimmers® anodized aluminum tension hooks & upgraded anti-theft double coil zipper chain for the main two compartments.

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