Spring has sprung, and hopefully that means that you'll have more chances to get outside. Whether you're traveling to and from your local coffee shop to work outdoors, packing up for spring sports or taking yourself out to our country's beautiful national parks during National Park Week, warm weather brings with it different material needs—including a study bag for all your day trips. My go-to? The Got Bag.
Got Bag's line of bags are all made with ocean plastics and are designed for your travel needs. The Daypack is made with 60% ocean plastic, meaning that the bulk of the bag's composition comes from repurposed ocean impact plastic. An additional 20% comes from recycled materials and the remaining 20% is from non-recycled materials used to create elements like the zipper and buttons.
The Got Bag Daypack is one of my favorite things I've ever tested. As a stalwart REI Ruckpack user, I was skeptical when I was asked to swap out my preferred travel pack for testing purposes, but the Daypack exceeded all my expectations. It's sleek, very lightweight (a plus, especially if you take it on an airplane as I did) and has snug, organized compartments inside.

The material is stiff and structured, but to me, that makes the backpack look more refined. Its carefully positioned straps and lighter weight made it comfortable to wear while hiking around and spending long hours at the airport. Each Daypack can fit a 13-inch laptop, and you have many different colorways to choose from, including a bright lavender shade and classic neutrals like black and gray.
