1. Waterproof Material
Although travel bags don’t need to be 100% waterproof (unless you’re doing multi-day hiking), still make sure the bag is made from at least semi-waterproof material so items inside the bag don’t get wet when there’s drizzle (most travel bags have canvas for you to cover in case of heavy rain).
Moreover, make sure the material doesn’t stay wet for long and is prone to mold. Among bag fabric materials, treated nylon fiber is a thick but lightweight material, very suitable for making travel bags for backpackers.
You can test by pouring a glass of water on top without getting wet inside. Although I don’t travel or backpack much in heavy rain or monsoon, I have experienced light rain before and because my travel bag was made from good material, I never had to open the bag to check if clothes got wet.

2. Zipper Locks
Make sure each travel bag compartment has two zipper locks so you can lock them together. Although you don’t need to really worry too much about stealing dirty clothes or miscellaneous items in the bag, you can’t fail to prevent cases that may occur.
It’s not about fearing theft, but the possibility of someone putting unsafe items (or even prohibited items) into the travel bag when you’re not paying full attention to it can still happen. This is really unsafe not only for your belongings but also for yourself.
If you’re really concerned, you can also consider specialized anti-theft locks (no one can steal your belongings and can’t even break them) to ensure more safety for your luggage.
3. Multiple Compartments
A good travel bag must have many compartments. With this design, you can divide your belongings into smaller parts for easier viewing and searching.
For example: my clothes are in the main compartment of the bag, umbrella and flip-flops on top, and shoes in a separate side compartment (so it won’t dirty everything). Multiple compartments will help you save more time and effort when organizing and searching for items in the bag.

4. Internal Frame
Most travel bags today have internal frames, meaning support bars and frames are attached inside the bag. However, some still have bags with external frames, bars separate from the bag and protruding outward. But the advice is not to use them because external frames will be heavy and easily entangled when you move.
Those with internal frames not only look better but the bars won’t get caught on anything and your bag will also be thinner, making movement easier. In addition, bags with internal frames tend to be lighter because frames are made of carbon fiber or hard plastic, helping you move easily and more durably.
5. Padded Contact Areas
Most of the weight you carry will be pressed down on your hips, so a padded hip belt will support the weight, making you more comfortable. The padded hip belt helps support and distribute the load more evenly on your back, causing less strain. The hip belt should also be adjustable so you can easily tighten or loosen it.
Padded shoulder straps make carrying more comfortable, because although there’s a padded hip belt, the main weight of the bag still presses on the shoulders. So padding will create less pressure on shoulders and also reduce pressure on the lower back.
Travel bags with foam padding on the back create a small gap between the back and bag, allowing air to move through and helping keep cool, not stuffy, and not sweating a lot when wearing.
6. Front Opening
Usually travel bags only have a top lid, so only allowing you to get items at the top lid of that bag. This makes getting your belongings (especially if it’s at the bottom of your bag) really difficult. Therefore, a travel bag with a front opening helps you a lot in getting all items and equipment in your bag.

7. Travel Bag Size
You need to determine whether you want a travel bag large enough just to fit the things you’re carrying and no more, or a bag suitable for carrying everything you want, a little more spacious and feel comfortable, then you should learn about the capacity of each type of travel bag.
Most luggage sizes are 45 inches (22 x 14 x 9 in) or 115 cm (56 x 36 x 23 cm) including handles and wheels, so you can consider backpacks of that size to see if they’re suitable for you to carry on backpacking trips.
Travel bag manufacturers also suggest body and waist sizes for each model they produce, but the best way to know if a bag fits is to try it on, thereby making more accurate decisions.
