REVIEW – OnePlanet Tasman Hybrid Travel Pack
ITEM: Tasman Hybrid Travel Pack
MANUFACTURER: OnePlanet
DESCRIPTION:
A hybrid travel pack that is designed to be used for adventure trekking in the wilderness, or backpacking (dare I say even “glamping”) through the urban jungle.
Hybrid packs can be stowed as “normal” looking suitcase or duffel bag type luggage, with a hide-away harness feature that allows hip loading backpack to be used for full carrying comfort. Other sites like https://planettravelerusa.com/ often recommend hybrid packs for adventures in the outdoors, so it’s not hard to see why the Tasman was designed as one.

INDUSTRY NEWS – ATS
I’ve been a wee bit naughty everyone.
ATS has some fantastic news to share about their Cobra Packs, but I’ve been too lazy to get it posted up.
I shall put myself in the pain machine to make up for it.
They boys at ATS have some great news about the further development of their Cobra Assault pack.
