Must have for long hikes!

I took my 45l out for a 15km weekend hike through the dense forest north of Lake Superior and this waist belt quite literally saved my back and shoulders. It took a bit of adjusting to figure out the proper spot so the weight went to my hips but once that was figured out it was smooth sailing!!

Thanks for sharing! So glad the waist belt made your hike comfortable—here’s to many more adventures!

Detachable Belt

I haven't used it yet but it would be great if you actually had a video showing how it is supposed to be set up. How it attaches to the 60L.

Thanks for the feedback! Here’s a video that shows how the detachable belt can be set up: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C3Y7jGmt7sO/

We hope this helps — and please let us know if you have any other questions!

Really glad to have this option

I was able to pack the 30L bag SO full on a recent trip that after running across two terminals to catch a connecting flight after a big delay, I bemoaned the weight and wished I had better distribution of it. This is exactly what I needed. It is easy to attach and should come in handy for my next journey in December. (And big Kudos - I was able to slide the 30L bag under the seat in front of me when overhead space was unavailable on my reassigned flight when I would have otherwise had to check my bag.)

So glad this option is working out for you—and wow, running across two terminals with a packed bag is no joke! We’re happy to hear the 30L came through in a pinch and that the new setup will help with weight distribution for your next trip. Safe travels in December!

Detachable waist belt

I order the back first, which I love and then followed up with the detachable waist belt and love the versatility it provides.

Thank you for your review! We're so glad to hear you're enjoying the versatility of the detachable waist belt—it’s great to know it’s working well with your bag!

Helpful

Used it with my fully packed 30 l duffle. Easy to attach and remove. It helped to distribute the heavier weight when walking around the airport and from the bus stop to the hotel on top of a steep hill. It really made a difference. I don’t need it when packing lightly but glad I have it.

Thank you for your review! We’re so glad to hear the accessory helped with weight distribution and made your travels easier. It’s great to know it made a difference, especially with heavier loads. Thanks for choosing Tobiq! 😊

Waist belt

Haven’t used it yet but since the 60L bag holds so much, I think the extra support the belt will provide will make all the difference along with packing the bag so that the weight is distributed evenly with the lightest pouch being toward the head and the heaviest packed on the hips

Thank you for sharing your thoughts about the 60L bag! It’s great to hear that you’re considering how the belt support will enhance your experience. You're absolutely right—distributing the weight evenly is key to comfort, and it sounds like you have a solid plan in mind. Happy packing!

Lightweight but sturdy

This is a very well made bag. Very light weight for its carrying capacity.

Thank you for your feedback! We're thrilled to hear that you find the bag well-made and lightweight while still offering great carrying capacity.

Looks great!

It looks really heavy duty and well made but haven’t used it or the Tobiq bag yet but our cruise in October will be here before you know it!

Pretty good

The belt attachment, secured well in the hoops it was meant to go into. My only drawback was that I had to stretch it to its very longest in order for it to go around and fit me. Yes it did alleviate some of the weight off of my shoulders by picking up the bag and giving extra support. But I would not be able to buy one of these for my fiance as he has a much bigger waste. Maybe thinking of elongating the straps or having adjustables to ensure the length can be secured for wider people. Thank you very much, continue to make great products.

Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear that the belt attachment helped alleviate some of the weight off your shoulders and provided extra support. We appreciate your suggestion about elongating the straps or introducing adjustable options for wider waist sizes. We're always striving to improve our products and your input is invaluable in that process. We hope to continue creating great solutions that meet the needs of all our customers. Thank you for your support!

Waist belt accessory

This belt is great if you want to take some weight off your shoulders... however I'd give it a higher rating if it came with clips for attaching. It is a bit of a struggle to get the bulk of the strap into the existing backpack clip.

Still too heavy for me when normally packed

I bought this to attach to the 60L since it felt way too heavy to carry without proper support. It helps, but I find this bag not supportive enough for the weight it carries. Maybe a chest strap would help- but as it is- I will not carry again.

Waist belt

The belt is comfortable in use. Struggled to figure out how to attach it to the backpack. Then it’s ackward when not hooked.

Thanks for that feedback Kim. I am sorry that figuring out the waistbelt wasn't straight forward, we'll work to make that better moving forward. Please reach out to us at support@tobiqtravel.com if you need anything.

Great Travel Bag

This bag has been so great. I've used it when attempting to travel light, and for trips where I knew I'd be carrying my bag a lot. I took this bag to Italy and was so grateful to have it when staying in tucked away places up many flights of stairs. I used to travel with large backpacks and despised having to constantly dig for whatever I was looking for, which inevitably ends up being on the bottom. These bags solve that issue. Everything stays organized and easy to access. I highly recommend!

Yay! Thanks for sharing this with us Amanda! Sounds like an amazing trip! I'm so glad your Tobiq bag was a helpmate on your adventure!

Waist belt FTW!

I purchased a 60L bag planning for an international trip. I knew my bag would be heavy so I opted for the waist belt for the additional weight distribution. I’m
glad I did! It is comfortable and lets the weight of my bag be more evenly distributed so I can carry it longer. Thank you Tobiq! Looking forward to future purposes.

Neck and Shoulder Savior

This waistbelt has been a savior to my neck and shoulders on my last trip. I had purchased a 60L TOBIQ duffel for a carry-on only trip. My shoulders and neck were hurting me by the end of my week long trip because of how much I was able to fill in the bag. I was hesitant on using the bag again, but decided to give it a try after purchasing this waistbelt. All the pressure was relieved from my shoulders as the bag was now sitting on my hips when adjusted correctly. Excited to travel again!

Thanks so much for that feedback NC! We know the 60L can get heavy once fully packed, I am so glad the waistbelt attachment was so helpful to you!

A Must Have for Long Trips

I absolutely LOVE my Tobiq 60 ltr big bag. Last year, my husband & I went to the Philippines for 2 weeks. This Tobiq bag held nearly everything for our trip. The bag was a bit on the heavy side & I'm short waisted. However, I managed it. When I saw the Tobiq Detachable Waist Strap available, I bought it as a Christmas gift to myself. Winner! The Tobiq Detachable Waist Strap takes the extra pressure off of your lower back & shoulders. It made me feel a bit more stable while carrying a big bag. Love it!

Such great feedback! Thanks so much for sharing Tina!

Great add-on

I purchased and used a bag for travel prior to the addition of the waist belt to the lineup. While wearing the backpack in the airport I immediately wished I had a waist belt for the extra support. It makes it much more comfortable and distributes the weight so much better. It is nice that it is detachable because most of the time I am using the bag as a duffel bag and don’t need all of the extra straps hanging everywhere. I am quite pleased!

Helpful

I wish I would have bought this with my 60L bag because it definitely helps distribute the weight more. The instructions are very confusing and I’m not sure if I’ve attached it correctly but still works. The product itself is good, wish there were better instructions on where to clip it on the bag.
