Matador Travel Equipment introduced the Globerider45 Travel Backpack combining the architecture of a traditional travel pack with materials and construction often used in the outdoor backpacking industry.
“The Globerider45 is a giant leap for us, and it’s our first foray into a generalist travel bag,” said Chris Clearman, founder and CEO of Matador.
“We’ve harnessed our expertise in hyper-efficient travel and our experience crafting backpacks for the outdoors to offer a dream bag for adventure travelers. It’s full of features and organization options to satisfy every type of traveler and is full of surprises like hidden pockets. We can’t wait to see where this one goes.”
The Globerider45 is constructed with bluesign-certified materials and offers a clamshell design with flexible interior organization and external-access features, including a padded laptop pocket, a water bottle pocket and an admin pocket with layered organization. The pack’s internal aluminum framestay distributes weight evenly, and its padded, breathable hip belt, back panel and shoulder straps keep loads comfortable for long carries. The 45-liter capacity also meets most airline carry-on requirements.
Additional features include:
- Stowable hip belt and shoulder straps
- Large external stash pocket
- Sternum strap and load lifters
- Sealing YKK zippers and zipper security loops on all exterior pockets
- Reflective webbing
- External daisy chain on the front
- Smuggler’s hidden pocket behind the back panel
- Grab handles on the top, bottom, front, back, and side.
- UHMWPE-reinforced wear panels
- V-compression straps on the exterior
