The Pack Gear Story
The same is true of our team at The PACK. Our journeys take us all around the world in different styles and at different speeds. But there is one thing that brought our group of travelers together, the dislike of the packing struggle and knowing — there has to be a better way to backpack.
Our founder, Jonathan experienced the downside to travel himself on his trips to Djibouti, Tanzania, and Uganda during his year-long overland trip in Africa. As a fast paced traveler who prefers to see as many sites as possible, Jonathan found himself spending his days with a repetitive theme.
ARRIVE. UNPACK. ADVENTURE. SLEEP. REPACK. REPEAT.
Sick of this same anthem, Jonathan met with fellow Harvard classmates Lauren, Ty, and Mark. They shared many common interests including traveling the globe, kayaking, skydiving, hiking and swimming, but they — and the rest of the PACK team agree — packing is the worst.
Ever the problem solver Jonathan knew there had to be a better way to backpack. He met with Reggie and Laura, two prominent young designers who took the challenge to design a backpack that solves every traveler’s worst problem.
Reggie and Laura were well acquainted with the packing problems most travelers face, too. They’re also avid explorers fond of New England hiking and Greek Island Hopping. Together they created the PACK which has revolutionized the trips they take by saving tons of time, stress, and creating a better atmosphere in the room during their stays.
THE PACK IS CUSTOMIZABLE, ULTRA LIGHTWEIGHT, AND READY FOR THE TOUGHEST JOURNEYS.
The PACK is our MVP and pride. It’s been around the world and stayed in thousands of hostels in hundreds of countries and never once made us look at his Facebook photo albums or asked us to crowdfund his trips. His hobbies are flying carry-on only, well-sealed liquid bottles, and not getting caught in conveyor belts at the airport.
He’s a great guy to have hanging around, literally. Don’t believe us? Buy him!*
In fact, the PACK team is all about the travel game and are currently innovating many new products that help explorers of all kinds keep themselves organized and traveling at the speed of life.
That’s our story, but we want to hear from you, too.

Jonathan
Jonathan was born with his passport in his hands; he’s visited over 20 countries! Though he’s done his fair share of hardcore backpacking and camping he now prefers nicer, boutique hostels and even takes warm showers.
Mark
Mark’s a semi professional mountain climber and has visited over 15 countries trying to climb them all. He most recently visited New Zealand and Australia for a 3 week RV trip and we’re told he climbed on top of that, too.
Lauren
Lauren’s not here right now (she’s checking for fresh powder) so please leave her a message after the beep.
This girl loves skiing! During the winter she spends almost every weekend on the slopes…
