I bought this primarily for longer trips and varying modes of transportation because I didn't want to have to drag a suitcase in varying terrain, and on the other hand, at least my own rucksack is quite clumsy and doesn't have room for large individual items. This, now called a backpack, has actually worked surprisingly well for that purpose. It's easy to pack larger items here, for example, I've kept my packed daypack inside this backpack, which has been especially handy when traveling by train when the backpack and its essential contents can be used quickly if necessary.
It is also easy to pack other large items inside this, e.g. an unopened box of wine, from which you can get to the reverse side of the bag, which is the lack of a hip belt in heavy glasses. For me, about 15 kg has been quite tolerable, but after carrying around 23 kg for a few hours, it was no longer very pleasant in the heat. If the bag had a hip belt, this would probably be quite easy, but on the other hand, the shoulder straps are now a pretty good balance between sturdy enough and compact enough.
In terms of size, at least for my own use, the 90 l version would certainly have been enough, but at least this won't run out of space. A bit of a downside is that the content tightening straps are inside the bottom of the bag, not against the back, so when the bag is empty the bag hangs or the items fall to the bottom. The straps for tightening the depth of the bag could be useful here, although of course they would create extra straps, which we have specifically managed to avoid on the outside of the bag.

A good, big travel bag for sailing or canoeing. There is plenty of space and, thanks to the handles found on all sides, it is easy to handle and comfortable enough to carry on the back despite a large load. The carrying straps of the backpack can be comfortably hidden when you don't need to carry it on your back.
