Thule Landmark now has significant travel depth in the live collection, including 40L, 60L and 70L versions plus a women’s 60L model.

Quick Answer

Choose Landmark 40L for carry-on-oriented travel, 60L for larger checked or extended-trip loads, and 70L when the trip genuinely requires substantially more clothing or gear. Bigger sizes should not be chosen simply because they are available.

Landmark 40L

Forty liters is the strongest starting point for travelers seeking backpack-style carry with a realistic chance of meeting some carry-on rules when not overpacked.

Landmark 60L

Sixty liters is better suited to extended trips, larger clothing loads and travelers who expect to check or otherwise transport the bag outside normal carry-on limits.

Women’s Landmark 60L

The live collection includes a women’s 60L version. Women-specific labeling may reflect fit geometry, but actual torso and shoulder fit should decide.

Landmark 70L

Seventy liters is a large travel load. It makes sense for long trips, bulky gear or users carrying equipment for multiple climates, but it is too much bag for many ordinary vacations.

40L vs 60L

Move from 40L to 60L only when the repeated trip load cannot fit comfortably into the smaller pack. The jump is large enough to change mobility and transport planning.

60L vs 70L

The extra 10L matters when carrying bulky clothing or equipment. For ordinary trips, the 60L version will usually remain easier to manage.

Travelers carrying unusually large clothing or gear loads.

Final Verdict

Landmark 40L is the versatile travel choice, 60L serves extended trips, and 70L should be reserved for genuinely large travel loads.
