PHOTOGRAPH COURTESY OSPREY

These new backpacks are endlessly customizable and versatile

Nat Geo's Travel editors picked Osprey's new Archeon collection for the Best of the World "gear of the year" roundup (read it here)—and it's easy to see why. The collection comes with multiple pieces that let you customize your pack via quick-release straps. Start with the Archeon 24L day pack (pictured above, $200) and add accordingly.

AMAZINGLY ADAPTABLE BAGS

PHOTOGRAPH COURTESY AMAZON

If your journey includes cobblestone streets, stairs, or other rough surfaces, consider the newest Cotopaxi Allpa. It has two sturdy wheels made to handle tough terrain—and like earlier versions of the bag, it's constructed of 100 percent recycled pre-consumer waste.

PHOTOGRAPH COURTESY PROPS LUGGAGE

PROPS Carry-On Bag

Let's give props (sorry) to the PROPS 22-inch carry-on. This hard-side bag has fold-out legs that turn the suitcase into a footrest or a table for your laptop during layovers or travel delays—perfect for small hotel rooms without luggage racks.

PHOTOGRAPH COURTESY BEIS TRAVEL

BEIS Mini Weekender

This Béis Convertible Mini Weekender—a smaller version of the original—is just the right size for a short getaway (hence the name). Our favorite part? A detachable lower zipper compartment roomy enough to store shoes.

INNOVATIVE APPAREL

PHOTOGRAPH COURTESY PATAGONIA

Patagonia Boulder Fork

We love Patagonia's new rain jacket for its adjustable cuffs, hem, and hood (great for keeping extra dry)—and the three zippered chest pockets, which give you plenty of places to stash your things. An added bonus: It's the first from the 50-year-old company that you can recycle.

PHOTOGRAPH COURTESY IBEX

Ibex Woolies Pro Tech

This new collection from Ibex is made from Nuyarn—purportedly the world's first performance wool. What does that mean for you? According to Ibex, it dries five times faster than conventional 100 percent, ring-spun merino wool, weighs less, and offers more stretch.
