Is this bag enough for this trip?

Trip length alone is a lousy packing formula. Laundry access and fixed gear can matter more than the calendar, so this tool lets your own measured packing habits drive the answer.

Volume budget

Use your packing numbers, not ours

Measure one normal day's clothing at home. The tool handles the arithmetic and laundry cycle. It does not invent a universal liters-per-day rule.

Your result

Build the bag budget

Measure one normal day of clothing, then add fixed gear, toiletries, the laundry cycle, and room for the trip home.

    No fake packing standard

    Measure one normal day at home

    Pack the clothing you expect to wear on one ordinary day, compress it the way you actually travel, and measure its liters in a known container. That is more useful than somebody else's neat "ten liters per week" rule.

    Fixed gear is counted once. Clothing repeats only until the next laundry opportunity. Toiletries and return space stay visible instead of disappearing inside a generous guess.

    Duck's call

    What to do next

    Plan the clothes, fixed gear, laundry break, toiletries, and return-trip space together before deciding that a bag is big enough.
