FAQs
How does the Bag Size Calculator account for multiple items?
Great question! The tool adds up the spatial needs of all the items you input, whether you pick from our predefined list (like a 15-inch laptop at 15x10x1 inches) or enter custom measurements. It considers the total volume and shape to suggest a bag size that fits everything, plus a 10-15% buffer so you’re not struggling to zip it up. If you’ve got oddly shaped stuff, it’ll still aim for a practical fit based on the largest dimensions.
Can I trust the recommended bag dimensions for my style?
Absolutely, we’ve got you covered. The calculator tweaks its suggestions based on the bag style you choose—backpacks, totes, and duffels all distribute space differently. For example, a backpack might prioritize height, while a tote focuses on width. We use those quirks to ensure the dimensions make sense for how you’ll carry it. That said, it’s always smart to double-check with a specific bag’s specs before buying!
What if I don’t know the exact size of my items?
No worries at all! We’ve built in a handy list of common items—like laptops, books, or even grocery hauls—with average dimensions to pick from. Just select what you’re carrying, and the tool uses those preset measurements to do the math. If you’ve got something unique, you can still pop in your best guess, and we’ll roll with it to get you a solid recommendation.
