TLDR: Want one bag that carries the whole trip then shrinks to your essentials when you land? That is the whole idea πŸ‘‡

Side by side: an overstuffed travel backpack with clothes spilled on an airport floor, and the organized Kuro Switchpack with essentials neatly stored

1. STOP UNPACKING HALF YOUR BAG TO FIND SOMETHINNG

You are at the front of the security line and your passport is under a hoodie, behind the laptop, somewhere near the chargers. The Switchpack gives your passport, phone, wallet and cables their own detachable pocket at the top of the pack. You reach for one thing and get one thing.

2. YOU ARE BUYING TWO BAGS, NOT ONE

Most travel backpacks in this class do not include a sling. You buy the pack, then you buy the day bag, then you carry them separately. The Switchpack ships with both, and the small one attaches magnetically to the big one.

3. WHEN YOU LAND, LEAVE THE BACKPACK BEHIND

Detach the sling bag, clip on the crossbody strap, and head out with only what you actually need. The main pack stays at the hotel. You are not walking around a city carrying your clothes.

4. IT PACKS LIKE LUGGAGE, NOT LIKE A SCHOOL BAG

It unzips flat, so you lay your clothes in properly and see everything at once. No excavating from the top. At 26L it stays in carry-on territory on full-service North American carriers, and there is a luggage pass-through on the back so it rides your suitcase handle instead of your shoulders.

5. BUILT TO CARRY A 17-INCH LAPTOP AND SURVIVE THE TRIP

A dedicated padded compartment takes most 17-inch laptops and sits against your back, away from the zips and the knocks. Around it, water-repellent 600D Jacquard polyester and YKK zippers, dual bottle pockets, a hidden valuables pocket and a scratch-resistant sunglasses pocket. The pack weighs 2.85lb empty, so the capacity does not cost you in carrying weight.

6. THERE’S NO BIG COMPANY BETWEEN YOU AND THE PEOPLE WHO BUILT IT

Kuro started because my brother and I kept running into the same frustrating travel problems ourselves. We spent years testing, changing and rebuilding the bag until it worked the way we actually wanted to travel. Even now, we’re still close to every part of it - reading feedback, answering customers, improving the product and seeing where it can be better.

7. SKIP THE TWO-BAG SETUP AND KEEP THE FEATURES

A comparable travel pack and sling from Aer or Peak Design often costs more, and the two do not attach. The Switchpack includes both bags and a magnetic attachment between them, so you are not juggling separate pieces.

More than 800 bags have gone out since launch, and the Switchpack has sold out twice. It is rated 4.9 from 50+ reviews. Free shipping, 33-day returns, and real people answering the emails.

Game Changer

The separate sling bag changes the entire game for travel. Detaching it and having your essentials on the go without lugging around a whole backpack is my favorite feature.

Room To Spare

My 16-inch MacBook, laptop stand, keyboard and lunchbox fit with room to spare. I love the separate compartments.

Retired My Tumi

I own a Prada and a Tumi backpack I used to rotate. Since getting the Kuro, I haven't touched either.

Not Bulky

The material feels durable and premium, and the best part was the extra sling bag. I can carry a lot without feeling bulky.

Absolutely Clutch

Got it for a trip flying and riding trains on the East Coast. Absolutely clutch. It freed up room in my carry-on for a week-long trip.

Very versatile. Having all your most important things in one convenient, detachable place is genius.
