GoBag Vacuum Compressible Carry-on Backpack
In a desperate effort to make the most out of his carry-on, GoBag founder James Fyfe began packing his clothes in a plastic garbage bag, sucking the air out of it with a household vacuum cleaner and quickly sealing it with a zip tie. It was an imperfect system to be sure, but it gave Mr. Fyfe the inspiration to design and manufacture the GoBag Vacuum Compressible Carry-on Backpack.
Featuring an internal Max Pack Bag that you can vacuum seal using a built-in hand pump device or an external vacuum cleaner it drastically reduces the size of the contents in your bag. Plus it includes a range of handy compartments for solid/hard accessories and equipment such as shoes, sunglasses, toiletries, and electronic devices.
Whether you want to avoid the baggage check line at the airport, pack more effectively for your hiking/camping adventure, or simply save space for more stuff in your backpack, the GoBag will change the way you travel forever. Even though this is still a crowdfunding campaign, we were so blown away by this product that we decided to include it her. Make a pledge and then just show the Kickstarter video to the person you're giving it to. He'll be happy to wait a few months to get this gift.
