Don't just take our word for it

I use it as my cabin bag and it holds everything I need… It fits perfectly under the seat, and I love the zip pockets to keep everything organised.

I have quite a few Foldie products. The backpack is very well designed and surprisingly spacious for how compact it packs down. I especially like the trolley sleeve, as it slides neatly over my suitcase handle.

This backpack is lightweight, with plenty of pockets. I like the outer side pockets — they’re deep enough to keep my water bottle secure.

I bought four Foldies for our trip to New York and they were the perfect underseat bags. We packed all our essentials into them, and they fit perfectly under the seats on the plane.

I love all my Foldie bags, but the backpack is my favourite. It’s lightweight with loads of room to carry my laptop, books and a raincoat — and still have space to spare. The high-quality zips and secure closure are excellent. I love the grey colour. Genuinely love this backpack!

    Perfect for my 4 day trip to the beach. Love the increased structure over the original Foldie

    I've bought several Foldies over the years (including the travel bundles) for both myself & my friends. We all love the back. But, I needed something with a bit more structure & that was easier to carry as I like to use it as my "onebag". Enter the Foldie Backpack. It holds alot & is surprisingly roomy for it's size & shape. I like the dedicated laptop sleeve, and the pockets & slots for my phone, charging chords/powerbank, & travel wallet. DO use packing cubes to help maximize space. I used chatGPT to help me plan my capsule wardrobe so I could get as much as possible into the bag. It fit fine under the aisle economy on an American 737 (seat 14C) . I personally LOVE the bright colors (Azure Blue is my favorite followed by the pink).
