About Pakt

Our journey began in 2017 for a simple reason: to resurrect a cult travel bag. Industrial designer Malcolm Fontier’s Getaway bag had been out of production for several years when it was featured in the 2016 documentary, Minimalism, as the bag of choice of Joshua Fields Millburn and Ryan Nicodemus, otherwise known as The Minimalists. After receiving hundreds of requests to bring it back, Malcolm and The Minimalists decided to collaborate on a new, improved version of the bag. One wildly successful crowdfunding campaign, a handful of round-the-world trips, and thousands of happy backers later, we decided we were having too much fun to stop. So, as of the spring of 2018, Pakt the brand was officially born. Our mission is to create unique, refined, and responsibly-sourced products for our growing community of travelers. At Pakt, we value authenticity and quality, so we made it our business to produce top-notch products that enhance your experiences. You focus on the journey, knowing that your gear has many years' worth of adventures in it. Read their story
