Stealth Hiking Backpacks

No matter if you’re traveling like a local or just keeping it local, it’s never the wrong time to tackle something massive, like a mountain or two. The Carry-on 2.0 and Daily look may look ‘all sleek and city-like,’ but under their minimalist exterior, they’re rugged hiking backpacks ready to handle whatever the trail throws at you, even if that means smashing through your inbox (like Sam) Scope out the gallery below as the Minaal crew hikes the mountain ranges of the world or grab your gear and set out to summit something yourself. Oh, and… when you come back down, don’t forget to tell us all about it so we can add your pics to the collection! Hit the form at the bottom of this page to upload your photos and story or tag #minaal on social media wherever your climb takes you.
