Whether you're catching a morning flight, commuting across town, or navigating a new country, these backpacks are built to simplify every step of the journey. 

The Hugger Carry-On Backpacks.

A staple in the Db lineup, the Hugger Backpack series delivers streamlined silhouettes with purpose-driven structure. Redesigned for improved comfort, these backpacks keep their shape while protecting everything you bring onboard. 

Both models offer the signature Db rib-cage construction, intelligent pocket placement, and a protective laptop compartment that makes airport security smoother than ever. 

The Ramverk Carry-On Backpacks.

If versatility is what you’re after, the Ramverk Backpack series brings everyday practicality with carry-on-ready features. 

  • Ramverk 21L – ideal for daily commuting and short trips, with a padded laptop pocket and mesh interior organization.  
  • Ramverk Pro 26L – adds more packing volume while staying within most airlines’ cabin requirements. 

External pockets, structured interiors, and robust materials make these bags a reliable option whether you're heading to work or boarding a flight. 

The Roamer: Your On-the-Go Carry-On Duffel Pack.

Meet the Roamer Duffel Pack, Db’s modern interpretation of the classic adventure bag – but sized for cabin travel. The full-open main compartment makes packing effortless, while ergonomic straps transform it from a duffel into a backpack in seconds. 

Compact and sleek, the Roamer is perfect for weekend trips or as your main carry-on travel backpack when you want maximum flexibility. 360° grab handles mean it’s always ready when you need to move fast.

Using responsibly sourced, durable textiles means your backpack lasts longer and performs better, reducing the need for early replacements. These are bags crafted for today’s trip, next month’s adventure, and every journey after.

Your Questions Answered.

Carry-on backpacks.

Does a backpack count as a carry-on? 

Yes – a backpack normally counts as a carry-on as long as it fits the airline’s size limits. Smaller backpacks can also count as a personal item, allowing you to bring both a carry-on suitcase and a backpack.

How do you measure a backpack for carry-on?

For each Db Journey backpack, you’ll find the measurements listed in the product description, making it easy to check if it meets airline carry-on or personal item size limits.

Are Db carry-on backpacks airline-approved?

Most Db backpacks between 20–30L, including the Hugger 20L/30L and Ramverk 21L/26L, fall within standard cabin luggage dimensions. Always check your airline’s specifications to ensure compliance.

What are Db carry-on backpacks made of?

Db uses tough, weather-resistant polyester and nylon – many of them recycled. Premium zippers, reinforced stitching, and protective foams give each backpack its structure and durability.

How should I store a carry-on backpack?

Ensure the backpack is clean and fully dry. Store in a cool, dry room away from sunlight. You can hang it or lay it flat; avoid compressing it heavily so the structure stays intact.
