Cotopaxi Allpa packs: sizes, Del Día and product details

Compare Cotopaxi Allpa capacities, redesign details, Del Día color options, materials, airline notes and warranty scope by product and market.

Cotopaxi sells travel packs alongside daypacks and carry gear

Cotopaxi's Allpa line spans travel packs, a smaller travel mini, daypacks, hip packs and larger travel gear. Start with the product family and intended pack type, then compare model capacity and exact variant; an Allpa name alone does not identify a suitcase-style travel pack.

Separate the redesigned Allpa from earlier generations

Cotopaxi's FAQ says the Allpa 28L, 35L and 42L were redesigned from 2025. It lists a front zip pocket, revised back panel, air-mesh shoulder straps, a tuckable hip belt, roller-bag pass-through and exterior bottle pocket among the changes. Store the model generation with the feature list; older Allpa pages and product photos can describe a different build.

Allpa capacity and airline badges answer different questions

The October 3, 2026 U.S. travel-collection snapshot uses different seller labels by model: 28L is personal-item approved, 35L is carry-on approved, and 42L and 50L are carry-on approved for domestic travel with a check-with-airline footnote. Cotopaxi also labels 28L for quick trips, 35L for week-long trips, 42L for extended trips, and 50L as a 2-in-1 pack. Those are seller labels, not universal baggage rules or a guarantee that a loaded pack fits a carrier sizer.

Material fields change by model, variant and store page

A Cotopaxi pack should not inherit one brand-wide fabric description. The U.S. Allpa 28L listing separates two shell layers and a lining but displays a conflicting weight/unit pair. The U.S. 35L Del Día page provides a dated indexed listing example, while the Canadian standard 42L page supplies a separate current regional record; keep product generation, colorway and storefront attached to each value.

Allpa 28L standard — U.S.The product listing reports 19 × 12 × 9 in / 48 × 30 × 23 cm and both 2 lb 8 oz and 1.02 kg; shell 1: recycled 840D TPU-coated nylon; shell 2: recycled 840D ballistic ripstop nylon with PFAS-free C0 DWR + PU backing; lining: recycled ripstop polyester.The displayed weight units do not convert to one another. Preserve the literal source values and keep the two shell fields, finish and lining separate.
Allpa 35L Del Día — U.S. listing exampleCotopaxi’s product listing states 35L, 22 × 12 × 10 in and 2 lb 7 oz; the Del Día description identifies one-of-a-kind remnant fabric. The indexed listing was about three weeks old when checked October 3, 2026.Keep this dated example with the Del Día listing; it is not a live selected variant, price or stock observation and should not be generalized to every 35L colorway.
Allpa 42L standard — CanadaThe Canadian listing gives 100% recycled 840D TPU-coated nylon shell, recycled 840D ballistic ripstop nylon shell, recycled ripstop polyester lining, 42L, 22 × 14 × 11 in / 56 × 36 × 27 cm, and 3 lb 2 oz / 1.41 kg.Keep the Canadian storefront, standard color selector and CAD market context attached; do not use its offer as a U.S. offer.
Measured protectionProduct-specific material text describes water-resistant treatment; Cotopaxi’s FAQ says it does not currently carry waterproof products.Do not promote a coating or DWR as a waterproof rating or guarantee.

Del Día changes how the exact color of a pack is known

Cotopaxi describes standard Allpa colors as planned seasonal colorways and Del Día as one-of-a-kind combinations made with leftover fabric. Current U.S. product cards vary: some show “Choose Color,” others “Surprise Me”; the help article says customers cannot request a custom fabric combination. Del Día Dark uses leftover black fabrics, but the exact appearance is still a surprise. Record the product’s selector and selected option instead of inferring the delivered pack from a collection label.

Water resistance and rain-cover availability are version-specific

Cotopaxi's help FAQ says the company does not currently carry waterproof products and describes most products as water resistant. The updated Allpa FAQ says a separate rain cover can be purchased as needed because the pack's materials are water resistant. Capture the exact coating or DWR treatment and whether a cover is included from the selected product page; do not turn resistance to light rain into a waterproof claim.

Cotopaxi warranty and U.S. returns use separate eligibility rules

Cotopaxi’s current U.S.-facing Guaranteed for Good page contains two different return windows: its U.S.-orders block says 30 days, while a lower general policy block says 60 days. The page does not reconcile those statements, so preserve the conflict and verify the live return flow. The separate U.S. warranty covers manufacturing defects for a product’s functional lifetime, which Cotopaxi says is not indefinite and is limited by published exclusions and purchase-channel scope.

Policy pathCotopaxi's published termsRecord separately
U.S. orders block — Guaranteed for Good pageWithin 30 days of purchase; Puerto Rico excluded; tags intact, unworn and unwashed; final-sale items excluded. November/December purchases have a separate January 31 deadline.This is one source block on the U.S.-facing page; do not merge it with the separate 60-day block below.
Lower general returns block on the same pageWithin 60 days of purchase; tags intact, items unwashed and in excellent condition; the text says full refund.The page gives no precedence or reconciliation. Preserve the source block and its 60-day wording as a conflict, not an alternative guaranteed policy.
U.S. refund method in the orders blockExchanges and store-credit refunds are free; original-payment refunds deduct a $5 restocking fee.Capture refund path and source block; do not apply the fee to warranty remedies.
Limited warranty — policy last updated February 1, 2026Manufacturing defects are covered for the product’s functional lifetime, which is an estimate rather than an indefinite period; Cotopaxi considers product type/material/use, issue and age.Keep warranty claim date, seller/purchase provenance and defect type separate from a return request.
Warranty limits and routeThe policy excludes cosmetic wear, normal/field damage and several accidental causes; U.S. limited warranty scope is direct Cotopaxi purchase or selected authorized U.S. retailers, subject to law. Collaborations follow the other brand’s policy.Do not label ordinary wear as a manufacturing defect or apply U.S. claims handling to an international purchase.

Offer and availability records need the Cotopaxi storefront

Cotopaxi says switching the site's country can change price, currency, shipping options and product availability. The Terms also reserve the right to change prices, product descriptions and specifications without notice. Store a dated offer against the exact model, variant and regional storefront rather than treating one collection card as a global price or stock signal.

Cotopaxi's Terms address automated collection and site data

The U.S. Terms say users may not use the site or services for data mining, robots or similar data-gathering and extraction tools; the same clause also refers to collecting or harvesting information about other site users. A separate clause prohibits bypassing access measures, and the Terms reserve changes to prices, offers, content, descriptions and specifications without notice. The page shows no general Terms update date; its September 21, 2023 date is for the separate Mobile Terms subsection.
