Complete One-Bag Travel Kit (on a BUDGET)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 май 2024
- My one-bag travel kit is VERY expensive because I travel for work so frequently so the investments make sense for me as business expenses, but for vacationers and occasional travelers, money is much better spent on the destination experiences so in this video, I put together a COMPLETE budget one-bag travel kit including clothes and accessories.
👉 A portion of this video is sponsored by TomToc - a great fit because I've been buying and using TomToc products for years, but ethically, you should know that I was paid to feature their Minimalist Sling and Passport Wallet. 👀

If you have the budget, even though this is a BUDGET travel kit, if there IS one place to splurge, consider the Compact Travel Hoodie by Unbound Merino. It's objectively an expensive hoodie, but since very high-quality merino wool is temperature regulating, naturally antimicrobial, and tremendously odor resisting, it's one item I confidently recommend.

Popping in to say that my spouse and I bought 2 of these in our efforts to embrace 1 bag travel. We absolutely love them. We've testing them flying, on trains, and on car trips. These things really punch above their weight class in usability.
super appreciate how you took the feedback of your previous single bag video and made an alternative budget friendly video. Another banger video!!
Just ordered! Was gonna buy a much more expensive bag (aer, able carry, tortuga) but decided to try this first and see what things I like, dislike
Thank you for having the consideration of budget minded people and those of us who travel less frequent to make videos like this one.
I absolutely love how thorough your reviews are! Your focus on practicality based on your years of travel is exactly what we need.
I travel for work as I'm a truck driver & stay in hotels 3-4 nights per week & have been looking for a better replacement bag for my traditional backpack. I immediately used the link & purchased the bag!
Sir, your videos are a treat! Regularly found myself watching them for ideas and sound advices. I like the fact that you take time to review options for a large group of people instead of hammering your way of doing things. This is the way!
I really appreciate your videos, getting the best items, but as someone who flies 1-2 times a year on a budget I am so glad when you review items like this!
Agree. Great video highlighting cost-effective items.
I bought Tomtoc’s sling and gadget organiser earlier this year. Dare I say that I love how well designed they are, made with good quality and at such a great price point!
I not only love your videos, but I am always impressed by how well-structured they are
Just took the TomToc Backpack to Vietnam for a week, and it was perfect! It is very comfortable to travel with on my 5' 11'' and 250lb body. The only caveat would be the small depth of the cup pockets on the sides. If just a little deeper, it is the perfect travel backpack. And the side strap helps keeps it place for one side.
I bought mine for Vietnam in February!
@@chrislrob dang wish I saw this for my Vietnam trip that I just came back from :) But I bought a cabinzero which is nearly the same but even cheaper and about half the weight.
Hi. What r the dimensions? I need a bag to fit under a plane seat. Thanks.
40L, Dimensions: 20.5 ×13 ×8.66 in@@josephcollins6033 , but it feels more like 35L. The side straps make it easier to compress the backpack.
Excellent review of another great product. Because of Maurice Moves I bought a TomToc sling bag as my personal carry on. I have used it once on a short trip and will never travel without it again. The organization is excellent and it has extra space after I put all my necessary items and a couple extra items. I don't play video games, but I thought the Royal Order TomToc Medium size sling was beautiful and I had to have it. I think it is my favorite and most useful purchase of 2023. Thanks Maurice for your videos.
Such a high quality production, thank you. Subscribed! The only thing I would add is about the hipbelt. For me this is a must, why? It isn't only about stability but more importantly, the hipbelt allows most of the weight to be carried on the hips rather than the shoulders. Makes the carrying experience so much more comfortable and safer on neck and shoulders.
Good choice of equipment and excellent advice on where to pack your items. Thanks for passing on your knowledge to the benefit of others.
Thank you so much. I love your videos, and items you feature, $80 is much better than $375 for a travel back pack 😊 I am going to start buying one item at Unbound Merino every quarter until I get those 5 staple items I want
I watched this video twice. Great review! The review is organized and well-thought of -- convincing me to add the bag and the passport in my cart. I like the seamless flow of the discussion so I had to watch it again just to enjoy.
Thank you for making this video! recently I've been feeling so far away from your lifestyle and cost per value, but this is the perfect response. Thank you again for making this vid.
I feel like tomtoc is underrated. I have their edc sling in the 4L and 10L and i never leave home without one or the other.
Bought this bag earlier this year and have been using it for my monthly trips abroad. No issues with airlines as a carry on and has more than enough space for my work items/clothes, casual clothes, 2nd pair of shoes and tech gear for 2 weeks. I also include a portable day bag for my days off.
Does it fit under the seat?
@@mantiscity yes
is it well padded to protect my laptop (especially the bottom in case my bag falls out)?
Yay! Thanks for doing a budget version,I wanted to keep my new bag under $100 US, excited to try this.❤
I’m 66 and most of my traveling days are behind me, by choice. Still, videos like this one -and all the rest- are why you remain my favorite RUclipsr. 💪🏼
I have this bag in black and it works so well, took it on my first time 1 bag traveling. Started to regret not bringing a roller bag cause by back was killing me with how much walking I did but I did have to bring my work laptop and also brought a 12.9 in iPad. It is great little bag.
Funnily enough, I was watching his video on Pakt 35L video, and people in the comment section is criticising everything he is using is expensive, and here comes the video, Kudos to you!
You're awesome! One of my favorite travel videos by far! Thanks for the inspo, I am more confident than ever to travel internationally without checking a bag. ✈🌍
I finally bought the Tomtoc sling during Black Friday/Cyber Monday sale after watching your video on the 3 best sling bags many times over the last year. It was perfect during our last week just spent in Playa del Carmen! Wish this video came out earlier as I'd probably have bought the passport holder and travel pack as well. I don't need super expensive gear as I travel 2-3 times a year for vacation/quick getaways and 3-4 times for work, but i have been a big believer in merino wool for years and will continue to invest in it. Thanks for your great videos!
I have been enjoying the Tomtoc sling too!!
Love that you included budget choices, thank you :)
glad you addressed the washing of clothes.
Thanks.
I am just checking some of your older videos. They all have great info.
I hear you on recommending polyester clothing for moisture wicking but definitely not for undergarments. Also uniqlo airism looks and feels so cheap. They sweat stain so easily that you’re better off just getting wool everything
Thx so much for this more budget-friendly video, this bag looks wonderful!
Amazing bag that made my short list but last minute I chose the farpoint 40 because with that one you can store the straps
This is more my speed as I've recently just got into a financial space I can travel though not luxuriously. I mainly go on cruises and travel to countries with family. I'm on a significant budget and like you stated some of us aren't frequently traveling from place to place. Thanks for this set up for the blue collar types.
First time Viewer.
Appreciate the Speed & Brevity!
Good Job! 👍🏻👍🏻
I've had 3 of Tomtoc's bags (2 slings and 1 tech organizer) for a while now for everyday use and short/long-term travel, and I can attest to their quality and incredible value. This will likely be my next travel bag If I don't want to use a carry-on roller.
Awesome review, thanks for listening your audience, I am grateful you took the time for this video!
Props for making this video right after the Pakt backpack one. Most comment were asking for more affordable options
Another Amazing Video with just the right amount of information needed!! Thank you.
Good stuff man. I love your comment and presentation style. It’s great to see budget friendly options too.
Great video. May have to look into a few of these items for my upcoming trip.
I took this bag on a four day trip to a conference. It was so clutch to be able to collapse the bag after unloading all my clothes/toiletries at the hotel to get a nice slim profile
Packing toiletries can be challenging, even for experienced travelers! I often use lightweight zip cases designed for pens and pencils. I like the ones that can be found at LL Bean.
Very cool, I always dig consolidation options. Thanks!
Thank you for such an informative review and tips!
Thanks for this!! I loved your video on the previous back but it's not only sold out, but it's 325+ and there's no way I'm spending that money on a bag since I'm traveling on a budget. Thank you!!
Great review. I have been looking for a budget bag. Thank you
I have all of the tomtoc products in this video. From the backpack,sling bag and the passport wallet. I love tomtoc products because of course very obvious is the the price itself.
I used this all products in our holidays in the Philippines and i had no issues at all.
Well recommended for budget friendly and comfort wise it is all worth the money.
is it well padded to protect my laptop (especially the bottom in case my bag falls out)?
Listening to all your travel hack recommendations 👍
I have that backpack and took it for a 9 day trip to Japan. Feels comfortable enough, even when fully loaded.
Hi. Is it suitable as a personal items bag? Will it fit under a plane seat? Thanks.
@@josephcollins6033 I would think so, but I personally won't since it's around 40L. Better fit in overhead storage.
@@seidreine Very kind of you to take the time to answer this. I think I'm going to have to just go with a sling bag for under the seat. I have a carry-on coming Wednesday. I just do not want to check a bag! Thanks!
is it well padded to protect my laptop (especially the bottom in case my bag falls out)?
@@royalhumbler2767 it has some padding, so a light fall might be ok
I've just got back from a weekend using that bag! (Haven't even unpacked yet). I got it for £45. It even fit my beast of a 17.3 inch laptop (but the top inch sticks out of the sleeve though).
I couldn't justify spending hundreds on a bag because I hardly ever travel. This worked well for my needs. Thanks for doing a more budget friendly video too 👍
is it well padded to protect my laptop (especially the bottom in case my bag falls out)?
Awww.. thanks for this. I really like the points you made in your videos but kept thinking i wont be able to afford it. Coming from an asian country, the products you previously recommend are so out of the budget but at least now, it's more affordable. Blessings to you.
You have really great content. The structure of the video is well edited too!
I like Uniqlo’s long sleeve crewneck in their Heattech tee shirt and long sleeve crewneck line. Looks good as a not too bulky substitute for a sweater or fleece over a synthetic tee shirt (I like Patagonia Daily), and in a pinch it’s fine just by itself while my short sleeve collared shirt is drying after a sink washing. Good in Asian hotels where the thermostats seem to produce too much cold air no matter the setting.
Thank you for introducing this bag. I’ve always wanted something for a one-bag travel. I used to do it for years carrying a Deuter backpack (I forgot the model already) but I know it’s due for replacement based on the new bag technology out there (the bag itself weighs a lot relatively). The only consideration I have right now is that I just underwent multilevel spinal fusion and backpacks might be a no-no now 😢
having watched a few of your vids I wonder if you will even cover water bottle space....please start doing this. It's a must for a majority. Thank you!
Really great to see the growth of your channel over the last year. The effort that goes into to the scripting, b-roll and sound design = massively appreciated. Well done Maurice.
Ps. Just went the more premium route for an upcoming trip to Canada after dropping $500+ on Wandrd kit … I’ve spent years doing budget so this time it’s the time to raid the savings and splash out. 🤪😃
Thks for being awesome
This is a great video, a good find, and better than the one I bought to carry for a a 4week trip in Germany.
I am a traveller and do need to be able to stop in a village and walk around for hours. This bag has no hip belt. It looks like it does have a chest strap though you didnt mention it. I saw no way to hide the straps if you have to check it in because the overheads are full. All these cons are worth mentioning.
The only way you have your stuff where you are staying and not in the bag is the days that you stay 2 nights or more in the same place. In between, you carry your bag.
I bought the $79 Rick Steves bag 9 years ago - so considerably more expensive than this bag - and as soon as I had to carry it for 3 hours, it was a terror and my shoulders were in pain - for days. But then every day after that I had to carry it and it hurt more. I was sorry I didnt spent $179 for the Osprey.
Awesome video. Purchased my Tomtoc backpack after watching.
Love the Channel! Appreciate the insights!
First time viewing your channel. Appreciate the talking speed! ❤
I've used ziplocs for years. You can't beat them and I bring extras because ts surprising how useful they are. I have been looking for this passport holder for some time. I have an old no name and want a better one, but nothing has come close to its perfect setup. This is almost exactly the same thing but not trashed from 20 years of use ;-D I detest airism. The feel is so gross. I bring linen and I don't care about wrinkles so it works for me.
Spent the last 3 years in Korea and recently moved to Japan. Got this bag a while ago and it's been amazing.
is it well padded to protect my laptop (especially the bottom in case my bag falls out)?
Just picked up this up on sale! Maurice you never miss.
Thanks, love the vids and the guidance.
One small item I disagree with, though is stating that cotton holds odors and then recommending Uniqlo airism. I love lots of things about airism - light, quick dry, etc. But my experience is that it retains odors quite badly. Many synthetics have this problem.
Its also a 70% cotton product. And as you said, the other 30% synthetic content holds odors worse than cotton does.
Not bad at all. I certainly will consider buying one.
Maurice, always inspired my travel decisions. Right now, I'm in Europe with, in traveling only with a carry on with 9 kg ....
I bought my Tomtic sling based on a previous video. Love it!
Amazing insights! Thanks for every thing.
I evaluated this bag and ultimately did not use it. But it is absolutely unbelievably value packed for the money. I wish I would have kept it but circumstances did not allow for it. You really don’t need to look any further than this one and you will will be very happy.
I will recommend swapping the shorts for a soft beach bermuda/surfshort, that way you can use it as pajamas but also can go and get wet if an opportunity appears
I literally just bought this bag today! 😮
Awesome bag at a great price. I'm holding out for a sale, but it's great value at full price too.
Thanks for a budget friendly video. Cheers Vancouver Island
I also have this bag but in black. 👍
Very informative and great points
Excellent presentation!
Furoshiki is the cheapest and most versatile bag I have ever seen, it can transform a piece of Cloth to a hand bag to sling bag and to a backpack😊 just RUclips Furoshiki backpack and also Furoshiki sling bag the videos will show you how to use this ancient Japanese art😊
TomToc does it again. Wow, wow, wow!
Hard disagree to the "if there is one place to splurge, consider a Merino Hoodie" part. The advantages of merino are particularly noticeable in the next to skin layers. So if there IS one place to splurge, consider Merino T-Shirts, Socks, Underwear.
Also i think a combo of a modern synthetic hiking midlayer + ultralight wind jacket is lighter and more versatile than a merino Hoodie. And nowadays, there are many options that don't scream "hiking clothes".
Excellent video as always

great info thank you
Your videos get better and better.
These videos are my happy place. The organization, the systems, the attention to detail...🤌
Thank you for another helpful video. What are your thoughts on the 28 Liter version of this backpack for travel?
Maurice, this was great. I really enjoyed your “best bag ever” video a month or so ago, and if I were ever doing a lot of work travel or going full nomad, it would be my pick, no question. But…I’m lucky to get a vacation once every five years and my work travel is mostly driving in my state. Fun. And not exactly making me want to invest in the exquisitely curated kit you use. Today’s bag was a winner, I’m almost certainly getting one. But the load out was awesome, too. I already love Uniqlo undershirts and underpants, so why not just go all in? Or choose a lightweight Paka hoodie for my warm piece? I mean, you’ve inspired me. Thank you. And I love how you ditched your beloved Seikos for a $30 Casio, just to say in the budget mood for this.
Hey man! I really appreciate this video! I'll travel sometime soon and walk a lot, so I'd like to know if those Hanes boxers are great for long walking? I use Fruit of the Loom but I don't know if it is better to buy others more appropriate.
Your “secret power” is a really simplified wardrobe.
Although maybe not fashionble, you all may want to consider sandpiper of California for an overhead bin backpack
Love it!❤
You convinced me
Bought it. Love it! Now let's see how it flies. 😃
i love your videos about travel, etc. but would you recommend merino wool on hotter countries? if not, what would you recommend instead?
Yet another great video! Any rec's for budge one bagging business travel?
Thanks for the vid. You have links for any of the clothing you recommended other than the hoodie?
I wish I saw this video a couple weeks ago before purchasing the AmazonBasics 45L backpack.
On my last 1 day trip I only carried a medium totebag that fit in the airplane seat backseat holder
Finally, a cheap clamshell backpack. While Aer backpacks are really cool, they're too expensive for me
I wish that Tomtoc sling came in the opposite configuration too (worn on right shoulder).
I wish Belroy would add a zippered pocket to the back of their slings.
As for this, I would like to see more pockets in the 'business' end of the bag.
Please make a video on Backpacks or Laptop bags for University Students 🙏😭
You're literally the only reviewer I trust on this stuff!
I got a tomtoc Vintpack TA1 a month ago, I think it is a nice backpack for college students or carrying on campus with a spacious main compartment, adequate laptop protection, and a wonderful look. Yes, tomtoc always does it well on the device protection.❤
I've had this bag for a year and now finally I know I've made the right choice. Traveling to 4 states I was wondering if this would be a good overseas 15 day travel bag that I don't mind ruining since it's at such a reasonable price point
is it well padded to protect my laptop (especially the bottom in case my bag falls out)?
Still prefer my YOREPEK Travel Backpack, Extra Large 50L Laptop Backpacks. It's water resistant, tough, holds tons and fairly comfortable to carry. I did add a cross strap to it but that was easy and cheap. It runs around $28 on Amazon and has a 4.7 rating from over 40K people. I've used for both local and overseas travel.
