Introducing the Kosan Travel Pack system, the world’s most comprehensive travelling system. A counter balanced, 5-in-1 detachable carrying system designed specifically for travellers. This incredibly durable two-bag system will change the way you travel, making your journey easier, safer and more comfortable than ever.
The only thing guaranteed in life is change. And your travel bag needs to adapt to fit those changing needs, and life's many unexpected adventures. We’ve designed our system with the versatility and flexibility to take whatever you throw at it. With 5 carrying options, each bag can transform to fit your needs from a weekend getaway in Amsterdam, to a month long safari through Tanzania.
We've designed two beautiful bags that work together seamlessly. Our Carryall Pack (35L) quickly converts from a duffle bag into a high performance backpack.
And our Day Pack (15L) quickly converts from a messenger bag to a backpack.
Your Day Pack can then easily connect to the main Carryall Pack via our durable spring clips. This two-bag system distributes the weight of your gear, allowing you to travel efficiently, securely and hands free to each new destination.

The design for the Kosan Travel Pack System began some 10 years and 30 countries ago. Ever since we started travelling, we felt like there had to be a more comfortable and smart way to carry your gear. After about a year of planning and research, we finally put pen to paper and began designing the bag.
Early sketches of the travel system
We are working with an incredible factory to design and produce this bag. Located in Vietnam, just outside of Ho Chi Minh City, they are absolute pros at making all sorts of technical bags, as well as paragliding equipment! When the quality of gear can result in life or death, we knew that this was the perfect factory for us.
After submitting initial sketches and the first few prototypes, we hopped on a plane to Ho Chi Minh to meet with our factory partners face-to-face. We wanted to be very hands-on with the factory, to oversee the quality and get to know exactly where and who would be making our bags.
We spent a week living at our factory manager’s dormitory, ironing out the finer details of the bag.
Every day, we worked alongside our team and met with and visited local fabric suppliers. We ate lunch with the factory workers (fish and rice) and spent a day testing out our latest prototype in the Mekong Delta with the team. We were even invited to a Vietnamese wedding where the karaoke was mandatory!
We spared you the audio...but in case you're wondering, they sang "A Whole New World"
We are Kosan, a small group of friends who love to travel. We started Kosan because we wanted to help travellers prepare for their journeys by making clothing and gear for world travel. And by world travel, we mean the kind where you submerse yourself entirely in new cultural experiences, which is at the heart of our business. We started Kosan for three reasons:
1) We love to travel. Like REALLY love to travel.
2) We believe with all our hearts that travel is fundamental to overcoming bigotry and prejudice. Through travel and trade, we can all work towards a more peaceful and accepting world.
3) It’s high time a company made goods exclusively for travellers.
Alex McAulay & Karyna McLaren, Co-Founders
We believe that travel can effect positive change by inspiring new perspectives about the world you live you in, and that the more you travel, the better off the world will be. We also know that the better prepared you are, the more you will be able to enjoy the experience. So, we’ve set out to build the best products for those who travel the world, and our mission is to help our travelers prepare for their journey. Thanks for all of your support! If you have any feedback or questions, please do not hesitate to reach out. We'd love to connect.
