UNPACKING OUR BAGS
ADVENTURE. PACKED.
YETI was born when founders Roy and Ryan set out to build a cooler that outperformed the rest. Now, we use that same engineering for bags built to go as far as you do. Whether you’re commuting across town with a tote bag, boarding a long-haul flight with a duffel, or wading waist-deep into a river with a waterproof backpack, you don’t have time to worry about your gear getting beaten up or soaked.
Types of bags
Not every day demands the same set up. Here’s how our backpacks, travel duffels, and submersible dry bags work for every type of adventure.
-
everyday bags
Slim, organised, and weather-resistant backpacks and tote bags designed to haul your laptop, work gear, and daily essentials.
how to choose a bag
Finding your ideal YETI® bag comes down to three fundamental choices:
-
capacity:
• 12L-20L: Best for quick daily missions, light commutes, or carrying just the essentials
• 22L-35L: Ideal for full workday setups, overnight trips, or day hikes in unpredictable weather
• 40L-100L: Reserved for serious travel, multi-day expeditions, and heavy gear hauling -
Weather protection:
• Weather-resistant models (like our Ranchero™ and Palo™ ranges) handle spontaneous downpours and everyday splashes
• Waterproof and submersible models (like our Panga® series) keep gear dry even when fully submerged in water -
Carry style:
• Choose between hands-free backpack carry, graband-go tote handles, or versatile duffel straps
Bags for any adventure
-
Daily commute and uni days:
You need quick access to your laptop, water bottle, and tech gear without worrying about sudden rain. The Ranchero™, Cayo™ and Palo™ series offer smart internal organisation, padded laptop sleeves, and all-day back panel support.
-
For the coast and outdoor activities:
Sand, mud, and wet kit will ruin standard bags. The Camino® Carryall features an easy-to-clean shell that brushes off dirt and can be wiped down in seconds.
-
For off-grid and marine missions:
When failure isn't an option, our Panga® Waterproof backpack and duffels feature impenetrable materials and airtight zippers that keep water out, come hell or high tide.
-
For trails and hikes:
Long hours on foot demand proper weight distribution. The Skala™ Hiking Pack offers micro-adjustments to fit your torso, breathable back panels, and instant access to hydration.
-
For travelling and road trips:
The Crossroads® luggage and backpack series combines suitcase-style clamshell openings with rugged nylon that easily stands up to baggage handlers and truck beds.
