The Yak Pak Chinook is my current trusty travel carry-on (as documented in this National Geographic blog article). It’s a nice day purse at your destination, too—not touristy-looking, yet big enough to house a map, a book, bottled water, even a sweatshirt, plus any small souvenirs and such you pick up along the way. There’s a little zipper pocket to corral small items, plus side tabs that snap open to create a titch more space. And? It’s washable. Love.
They must be phasing out the Chinook, as it’s hard to track down online. Thank goodness I got my hands on two for you guys. (The purple skull one on the far left and the green viney one on the far right—do specify your preference, if you have one.) Throwing in zippered toiletry pouches containing a few carry-on friendly goodies.

I’ll be focusing on budget-friendly gifts for travelers. To my fellow Americans: Happy Thanksgiving!
P.S. Yak Pak has a web special going on, where you get three random Yak Pak bags for just $15. Not a bad deal since their least expensive items cost about that much.






Ok - this is the perfect bag for travel - enough room for everything, plus it’s expandable - not to mention it looks good - I prefer the green viney one -thank you!
I love how the patterns of this bag are not so wild to label one as a tourist. I love the green vines!
i hope the bag isn’t being phased out - it’s a great size and so freakin’ durable.
i have thisbag, a gift from a wonderful niece, and it is great. it has been used as a purse and as an overnight bag. it wears well and can go right in the washing machine. the panda bears stole my heart. you’ll love it!
Looks good!
I think the camera would fit nicely in here, along with all the other stuff I have to haul! Both designs are great, definitely funky too!
this would be a perfect gift for my sister who is traveling to Europe over the winter.
Wow… a very cute and most important discreet travel bag!
What a wonderful size and fun fabric! It looks like a great travel companion.

My daugther would love a cute bag like this to haul her teddy bears around in. Thanks for the opportunity.
Cute, Durable, Practical, and Washable!! What’s not to love? I prefer the green viney one.
That bag looks perfect for hauling stuff anywhere!!
Love the size for a day out on the town or even a low maintenance ladies overnight. Perfect all-around bag.
Thanks for turning me on to a great deal and yet another cool product. I’d love either one!
My wife would love a cute bag like this. Looks really practical too! Green would be great, but skulls are cool too!
This is Lovely! I want!
[...] friend Berit at trustypony.com is giving away some of her favorite travel gear items. We love this Chicook bag by Yak Pak. It’s lightweight, waterproof, big enough for travel guides plus a few souvenirs. Plus [...]
what a great bag! it’s so hard to find things that are both highly functional and cute.
I’m always attracted to stuff I already have, and the bird print looks like a bag I already have. But this one is for TRAVELING. I like it.
I am liking those a lot…
ooh, fun! I’m crossing my fingers!
what a great looking bag.
OOO, i love yak paks they are so simple yet wonderfully complex, lol. please random gods, pick me!!!
That looks like the perfect size for traveling. I’d love to get my hands on one before my two week Xmas vacation.
Oooh, I’m going to have to check out that special they have going on. The green one looks fun, but whatever!
I LOVE the black with the birds!
I’m always scared of that grab bag because what if I don’t like any of their colors? Though, maybe it’s a good way to get stocking stuffers
Lovely bags!
What a great bag! I think my little sister would love it for her Christmas present! Happy Holidays!
Pick me! Pretty please.
What a wonderful thing to do. I really like the look of this bag. If picked, I could definitely use this one.
I like the green viney one! (LOL)
Thanks!
I love the fun designs available for this bag.
Who can’t use another bag? This would make a great gift…I prefer the “green viney” one, should I be so fortunate (fingers crossed!). Thanks for the giveaway!
i enjoy the green viney one, thanks!
Is that a panda in the yellow one towards the middle- how cute is that!? That’s my fav.

These are some of the nicest looking tote bags I’ve ever seen.
Roomy and squishable. Love them! I’d prefer the skulls, but I’m not picky. Thanks!
I love all the patterns. That way, you’re more likely to have the only one like it!

Love love love them all. Especially the green or gray birds or the overlapping green and blue flowers. Fingers crossed and whatnot.

Great bag — just what I’ve been looking for!
I love all those patterns!
Who can ever have enough bags? This would be perfect for travel or to use around town.
I love the shape of this bag…
What a wonderfully pleasing carry-all — I would probably use it for EVERYTHING, not just travel. Love the color, fabric, design. Nice job!
What a perfect neutral bag - love the pops of color.
Nice bags! I think I like the green vines…
