Kulkea’s Käydä Travel Backpack Wins Men’s Journal Best Ski Pack

Kulkea’s award-winning luggage continues to set the standard for adventure travel. The brand’s innovative Käydä Travel Backpack has been recognized by Men’s Journal as the Best Ski Pack, praised for its versatility and design that redefines ski boot and gear bags.

According to Men’s Journal, the Käydä serves as a “complete carryall for your next overnight hiking trip or backcountry skiing adventure,” while also performing “double duty as a carry-on ski and snowboard travel boot bag for air travel.”

Engineered for hands-free, hassle-free travel, the Käydä features a detachable travel kit that allows travelers to store the larger backpack in the overhead bin while keeping essentials close at hand. Constructed from water-repellent premium materials, it offers durable protection for gear in all conditions.

Best Ski Pack: Kulkea Käydä Travel Backpack

Why we chose it:

Think of Kulkea Käydä Travel Backpack as a complete carryall for your next overnight hiking trip or backcountry skiing adventure. Even better for powderhounds: This piece does double duty as a carry-on ski and snowboard travel boot bag for air travel. The backpack comprises two parts, a 40L travel backpack topped off by a 5L travel kit, the latter of which is great for stowing charging devices, snacks, hydration packs, and more. Of course, when you’re navigating the great outdoors, you don’t just want something that holds plenty of stuff, you need comfort. Käydä delivers in spades thanks to an ergonomic back panel design, an adaptable waist belt, and a detachable sternum strap. Other fave features? Transparent toiletry pockets along the interior, a magnetic side water bottle pocket, and a retractable sling for helmets or jackets.
