The only place I found that sold backpacks in Kuta, that's where I am, was a place called Ace. They only had a few bags though. Should I be looking at shops in other locations like Denpasar? I have a scooter so could drive there. Are there other Kuta shops that I've missed that sell backpacks? Thanks

Take a look at [url=http://www.eigeradventure.com/]Eiger | Passion For Adventure[/url] - a Bandung based Indonesian brand. They have a store in Ubud near the Arjuna statue, and several further south, one in Lippo Mall, and a couple within Ramayana stores.

Thanks paulseawind and ronb for the suggestions, they had some 40L and 50L backpacks in the Discovery Mall. In the end I found a 65L backpack in the Matahari department store in Kuta-square. Cheers

There wasn't a lot of selection, the one I bought was reduced 50% and cost Rp 561000, the bag is quite good quality, though the zips feel like they might break if the bag had a lot of stuff in it. The bags at Ace were Rp 1200000 and slightly better quality materials.
