Patagonia Black Hole® Mini MLC® Pack 30L

A smaller version of the iconic 45-liter Black Hole® MLC®, the 30-liter Mini MLC is also built with recycled materials and a recycled TPU laminate. This travel-savvy, soft-sided backpack has tuck-away shoulder straps, plus a quick-stash padded hip belt that doubles as a shoulder strap. For use as a duffel bag or briefcase, tuck away all the straps and carry with one of the grab handles. The Mini MLC has plenty of room to keep you moving, but the bag also meets strict carry-on requirements. Made in a Fair Trade Certified™ factory.
