PROJECT AN01: Style, Comfort, and Quality

The PROJECT AN01 Waterproof Aviator Bag from Expedition Units delivers solid performance and thoughtful design, particularly for users who value durability and weather resistance. Whether used for short trips, daily commuting, or outdoor excursions, it performs reliably in keeping contents dry and protected.

The aviator-style design has a clean, utilitarian look that works well in both urban and travel settings. The bag offers adequate storage capacity for essentials such as clothing, gear, or work items. Zippers and closures feel sturdy, and the seams appear well-finished, reinforcing the bag’s overall durability.

In terms of comfort, the bag is reasonably easy to carry, though when fully packed it can feel slightly rigid due to the structured waterproof material.

Having said that, the PROJECT AN01 Waterproof Aviator Bag is a well-built option for individuals seeking a rugged, water-resistant bag with a minimalist aesthetic. While it may not offer extensive customization or softness, its durability, weather protection, and clean design make it a satisfactory choice for practical, everyday, and travel use.

Great but needs a few tweaks...

Found these online - they are durable and waterproof - bought 2 and the inners to match, only feedback after road tripping them is zipping and unzipping these can be difficult as there is nothing to hold onto when you go to unzip the bag and the bag is a bit formless in that it crumples when trying to get a grip on it. Needs a side sleeve for the airport so you can stack it on a suitcase handle - but otherwise size and durability and waterproof is great

Aviator bag

Perfect carry on bag. Truly waterproof. Strong zipper. Collapsible. Stands on its own. Just got back from a rainy week in Europe. No issues to date. Would like the shoulder strap set higher up to provide a more stable load when lifting or setting down.

Great bag

I have used the bag on several trips and it has proven sturdy and capable. Great as an aircraft carry-on, legal size and easy to manage. Only issue is that the shoulder strap may be set too low causing tbe bag to flip when lifting or carrying.

Gorgeous, utilitarian, spacious

This bag is pure space, and almost as large as a carry on luggage. I love the minimalism and matte black finish. No frills. Pure storage! Love the ability to hook accessories and my water bottle on the side.

Expedition Units just take my $...

Best Travel Bag I've ever owned and I've gone through a lot of them. Gone are the glory days of packing what you can carry! Now everyone is rolling cheap nylon luggage through an airport terminal and tracking all of that dirt into their destination. I love that I can carry all I need for a long weekend adventure and not worry about the weather! 11 out of 10 stars

Beautifully Made, but Larger Than I Expected

This bag is beautifully made, but larger than I expected. (I should have checked the dimensions more carefully before placing the order.) I thought it would be more like a briefcase; it's really the size of a small overnight bag. I returned it in exchange for a backpack, but if I had been looking for a larger bag, it would have been perfect.

A Few Words From The Founder

The idea of this brand was born in Bali, a place that naturally stimulate adventure and the pleasure of discovery.

Why did I launch the Expedition / Units and why should you want to be part of this world?

There are 3 main reasons:

  1. Creating premium gear with an innovative and highly functional design for the most demanding outdoor activities, but at the same time perfect for use in the city and in everyday life.

  2. Empowering the community of people who see life as an adventure, daily growth and discovery.  Not shy to pursue their individual path in life, no matter how off-the-beaten-track.
    This is for all the adventurers, explorers, travelers and digital nomads.

  3. Reducing single-use plastic bottle pollution and bringing about real change in the world. By using recycled and environmentally sustainable materials and supporting the people who strive day after day to rid our planet of plastics and educate the younger generations to protect the environment.
