When you’re constantly on the move between meetings, airports, and quick car pit stops, your gear has to work as hard as you do. The STM Myth Backpack 28L, priced at £119.95, has proven to be more than just a carrier—it’s a thoughtfully designed, travel-savvy companion tailored for today’s professional.
Function Over Flash—but With Style
The Myth’s exterior is sleek and modern, offered in smart shades like Granite Black, Slate Blue, and Windsor Wine. It looks right at home in a luxury vehicle or under the seat on a flight, and its understated design hides an impressively organised interior.
I’ve used this pack daily to haul a 14” MacBook Pro, headphones, a mouse, camera, snacks, a power bank, and more. What’s surprising is that it never feels overstuffed. The 28L volume hits that sweet spot for functionality without bulk.
Built for Road and Air
Traveling often by car and plane, I especially appreciate the PassPort luggage pass-through, which slots perfectly over a trolley handle. In the car, it fits snugly in the passenger seat or footwell, and its SlingTech protection system gives me confidence that my laptop is protected from bumps and jolts, even during quick stops or sharp turns. Oh more realistically when I have dropped the bag when putting it down.
Clever, Comfortable, and Cool (Literally)
The airflow back panel and shoulder yoke system keeps things breathable, even during long airport hauls. Inside, there are compartments for everything from AirPods to pens and chargers, with CableReady routing for discreet charging on the go. You’ll also find a fleece-lined pocket for sunglasses—a surprisingly useful touch. Meaning that you don’t need to bring your sunglasses case with you, or at least I don’t.
Real-World Reliability
After weeks of use, it’s clear STM designed the Myth to endure the daily grind. The reverse coil zippers are smooth and water-resistant, and the TPU-coated handles feel sturdy when grabbing the bag from a car or overhead bin. Despite regular heavy use, the bag has maintained its form and durability.
Verdict – A Smart Buy for Smart People
For business owners, frequent flyers, and tech-heavy users alike, the STM Myth Backpack 28L offers exceptional utility without compromising on aesthetics. At under £120, it punches well above its weight in quality, practicality, and professional polish.
If you need a daily bag that can carry everything you need, protect your gear, and still look good wherever you take it—this one’s a no-brainer.
