Carry-On Travel Backpack (38L) – Hynes Eagle – Pink

A: ** Update** Thank you Caley for your patience while confirming this information. After confirming with our production team, the current DWR treatment used on this product does contain PFAS, which has historically been used in many water-repellent textile finishes to achieve reliable performance. We recognize that the industry is actively moving toward PFAS-free alternatives, and we are currently evaluating and transitioning to newer materials that provide water repellency without PFAS. Future product updates will reflect these improvements as they become available. Thank you again for your question and for taking the time to learn more about our products.** Hi Caley! Thank you so much for asking this! We really appreciate customers who want to understand how their products are made. Our bags are treated with a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish. This is a light surface treatment applied to the outer fabric that helps water bead up and roll off instead of soaking into the material. It’s designed to provide protection from light rain and everyday moisture, while keeping the bag breathable and lightweight. We’re currently confirming the detailed questions you raised about PFAS. We’ll follow up here with an update as soon as those details are confirmed. Thank you again for such a thoughtful question! - Hynes Eagle

A: Hi there! 😊 Thank you so much for your question, we really appreciate you pointing this out. While the listing says brown, the color is actually closer to a burnt orange / rust tone in person. We’ve recently improved our color naming internally, and feedback like yours helps us make our descriptions clearer for everyone! It's a customer favorite because: • Carry-on approved (38L) for most airlines • Designed with a padded laptop sleeve, water bottle pocket, inner wet/dry pocket • Made with water-repellent fabric • Comfortable to carry with adjustable straps and a luggage pass-through Please let us know if you have any other questions, we're happy to help! - Hynes Eagle

A: Thank you for your question. This is an important detail for air travel. Based on its dimensions (13" x 7.9" x 19.7" / 33 x 20 x 50 cm), this 38L backpack is designed to meet the carry-on size limits for the overhead bin on most major airlines. Whether it can qualify as a personal item (that fits under the seat in front of you) depends entirely on your specific airline's policy. Budget airlines and some regional carriers often have stricter and smaller size limits for personal items. Our recommendation: Primary Use: It is ideal as a full-size carry-on for the overhead compartment. As a Personal Item: If you are flying with a generous airline (especially on a mainline carrier) and do not overpack it, it may fit under the seat. However, we cannot guarantee this, as airline enforcement can vary. Always Check: We strongly advise you to check the most current carry-on and personal item size policy on your airline's official website before you fly. We hope this helps you travel with confidence!

A: Thank you for your interest in our Hynes Eagle backpack! This backpack is designed to prioritize flexible internal organization and efficient packing, so it does not have an external dedicated water bottle holder. Its key strengths lie in its multiple internal compartments and organizational pockets, which are excellent for storing clothing, essentials, and a 15” laptop for short trips of 3-5 days, all while meeting most airline carry-on size requirements. While there is no external water bottle pocket, you can: Place your water bottle inside the spacious main compartment, which is designed to secure your items neatly. Use the side compression straps to temporarily secure a water bottle (depending on its size). We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. If carrying a water bottle is a priority, you might consider pairing it with a portable, carabiner-style bottle holder. Thank you again for your question. We hope this information helps you make the best choice for your needs!
