We like to think there's space in this world for people who a) love great quality gear, b) love getting deals on great quality gear, and c) find Black Friday kinda disturbing sometimes. Mostly we like to think that because we *are* those people. So: Good Vibes Weekend. Our attempt to take everything that's good – and nothing that's not – from all the madness. What's on the table? Grab a bag or bundle before Tuesday, and you can choose one of the following Good Vibes Upgrades (the options will automatically appear in your cart after you add a bag): 🤙 2x Free Accessories or Add-Ons bundled with any bag purchase 🤙 Free $100 Gift Card bundled with any bag purchase 🤙 75% off the Carry-on 2.0 or Original Daily bundled with any bag purchase Link in bio to start shopping. #minaal

Some days, you don’t feel like wearing a backpack. We call those “Crossbody days”. ☀️ 📷 @dan_undr

— GIVEAWAY — Our friends at @packhacker are giving away one of our new & very-nearly-in-stock Carry-on 3.0 bags! (If you’re a Pack Hacker Pro Member, you’ll also get access to an additional private giveaway.) The giveaway closes on October 15 at 10am US Eastern. See the link in bio for entry details - and good luck! 🍀

Pencil. Paper. A clean, well-lighted place. A bottle of white wine for the Hemingway fans. And a bag that helps you feel at home anywhere. These are the moments we (the team at Minaal) look forward to getting back when 2021 rolls around. Though we’ve been gradually realizing that you don’t need to travel across the world to find them.

One of the challenges of bag design is balancing two very different priorities: accessibility and security. The Daily 3.0 (like its predecessors) has a stash pocket for things you need at short notice - and within that pocket is another ‘secret’ mesh pouch which can be zipped shut for extra peace of mind. Of course, being bag nerds, we weren’t content with just one secret pocket. The 3.0 also has a new pocket hidden away in the back panel - perfect for passport, keys, gold nuggets, and other everyday items. See link in bio for more details🕵🏻‍♂️

We haven't been doing much self-promotion lately, but in case you missed it - our new 3.0 bags have landed. Available for pre-order now, shipping free worldwide, and equally at home alongside concrete walls and flowery gardens 😉 See link in bio for more details.

Hidden loops mean the Attachable Hip Pads clip on in seconds for an easier hike to your gate. Two layers of soft, supportive EVA foam provide plenty of cushioning for your hips, and the ergonomic design spreads the load to additional contact points on your body — leaving you fresher after a long day of walking through the airport, the city, or on the trail.⠀ ⠀ #Minaal

The Attachable Hip Pads are lightweight and stashable, but heavy on function. Clip them on when the trail gets rocky and head for the summit.⠀ ⠀ #Minaal

Big plans make for heavy bags. Use the Attachable Hip Pads on the Carry-on 2.0 to lighten your load and pair the Shoulder Sling with the Daily as your personal item to carry both backpacks at one time. It's easier on the shoulders plus, no more 'frontpacking' through the airport.⠀ ⠀ #Minaal

Remember, when the weather turns cold in the North, on the coastal trails of Bethells Beach, New Zealand, shorts still apply.⠀ ⠀ 🗺 Bethells Beach, New Zealand⠀ 📸 @nomadic.rufus⠀ ⭐️ @blakeehunter⠀ #Minaal
