The Homi Goods Expandable Travel Backpack combines a built-in vacuum compression system with a 40-litre expandable main compartment so you can carry more, check in less, and stay within airline cabin limits. Pack your clothes, compress them with the included pump, and watch the backpack shrink back to carry-on dimensions. A dedicated 16\" laptop compartment, anti-theft hidden pocket, and water-resistant construction handle the rest. Available in Dark Grey, Blue, Black, and Green.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0762\/5864\/0115\/files\/21b0f19c-8500-4cc1-8559-89e9e7887143.png?v=1778329512\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy This Travel Backpack Stands Out\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e✓ \u003cstrong\u003eBuilt-in vacuum compression system\u003c\/strong\u003e — the dedicated compression compartment works with the included pump to remove excess air from packed clothing, reducing volume by up to 40%.
