I have tried many carryon bags as I travel a lot for work. Most recently I have been using a soft carry bag as you can definitely get more into this than a wheeled carry on and my previous Samsonite wheeled carry on was heavy and cumbersome.
However carrying all my bags has become more of a burden as I get older, so have returned to wheels! This bag is a fantastic mid way between a heavy hard wheeled bag and a soft carry bag. The multiple compartments make separating dirty/clean and compressing clothes easy and with a centre section for shoes.
so far it’s been across the US and a few places in Europe and is as good as new.
Required a travel bag to accommodate 2/3 days travel and found this excellent piece of luggage. Really pleased with it.
Originally bought it urgently as a temporary suitcase waiting to find something else and it happened it was a really good suitcase that was perfect for my short travels. So it will be my new cabin suitcase for now on.
Lightweight and easy to move. The two separate sections ( plus the middle section that is created when you close the suitcase) make it so easy to separate items for ease of access through airport security and on plane. I was able to slide laptop in and out with no fuss or spillage of other items. Robust as well as smart for long haul flights as well as day trips for business or pleasure.
Purchased for my fussy 20 odd son..
Loves it. Holds his laptop and all his clothes for the weekend
Very stylish and he has been asked several times where it was purchased
One of the best suit cases I ever bought, last for ages!
Perfect size and shape for trips to Ireland by plane. Looking forward to taking it on Eurostar next.and it doesn’t make a noise when being pulled along.
After many years with my old solid suitcase I’ve decided to go soft. This specific one is perfect, good for 4-5 days trip. Looks great and it’s incredible how much you can fit in, much more than the solid ones.
Wheels are very well builded, and the handle luggage is solid and feels it will never break!
I travel a lot, several times a week.Highly recommended!
Bought to travel to the US and needed a good quality cabin bag. This fitted the brief. Exact size for Virgin airlines.
Well thought out interior, can fit a great deal into this bag.
Would recommend
Good item if you’re looking for a lightweight case, only issue i had was i put a small travel bag on top of it which was fine when walking as item rolls but when standing it fell over which was frustrating in airport. Stood fine without additional bag. All round very good item., would recommend.
I’ve been using this case for weekly journeys and it is great. Really smooth wheels, hard-wearing and waterproof. Soft sides mean you can cram a lot in too and there are lots of useful pockets etc.
Right size, right quality, right price. I know Eastpak stuff is good and a massive guarantee makes a sound choice. Nicely laid out inside with external picket which is useful.
Only small gripe is the way the handle intrudes in the case but that’s the same for all wheelies, so its OK
It looks small but is like a tardis! I like the solid(ish) bottom with the flexible material on the sides and top to push things in and make the best use of space. The zip is sturdy and I love the combination lock built in. The wheels make little noise when being pulled and are smooth, with a long handle for pulling. All in all a great case for a few days away.
This bag is an unsung hero, the sort of thing that simply does it’s job with minimal fuss and you know you can rely on.
Have been on a handful of trips now and it’s always been reliable. Its got a 30 year guarantee, and definitely can see it getting a lot more use in the years to come.
The only change I would suggest is adding a padded laptop pocket in the middle, but wrapping a laptop in a jumper does the same thing.
I took this luggage on an overnight trip to Europe as hand carry. The luggage met the restrictions for all 3 airlines during my trip – Flybe, AirFrance and KLM. Fitting it into the overhead compartments was easy because of the slim shape (Flybe had the smallest space among the 3). There is some functionality missing because it has 2 wheels and not 4, but movement was very smooth. I don’t actually miss having 4 wheels. Delivery was also really fast (thank you). Great hand carry bag and highly recommended.
Becoming an age when pulling a wheeled bag becomes more attractive than carrying all the time. The design and looks are great and a local test out shows that the handle and wheels work well.
OK, so not a great number of compartments, but enough, and the use of packing cubes is recommended.
Am looking forward to doing more short breaks with hand luggage. Should be perfect for local carriers Jet2 & Flybe. Wizzair may be a problem. Probably good with others as well.
The handle is sturdy and the wheels are great, minimum twisting on this bag.
Slight downsides: The amount of straps on the outside strikes me as excessive – they don’t add much considering the case does not expand. The organisation on the inside is not great – if you want anything like a liquids bag to be accessible without opening the whole case, you’ll need to store & carry it somewhere else.
BRAND – I’ve always considered the Eastpak brand name to be synonymous with affordable quality, and I knew that I would be getting a well made product if I decided to go with them. While user reviews are incredibly useful, I’ve known the Eastpak brand to be reliable for many years now and knew they wouldn’t steer me wrong
COMPRESSION STRAPS – The straps on the sides to help for compression really do make a big difference. Because of the lightweight cloth material used for the outer layer of the bag, you can really squeeze this bag into smaller spaces than expected.
AESTHETIC – OK so it’s not the most elegant looking carry on (the Away bags for me are much sleeker), it does retain that classic Eastpak feel. For me as long as you opt for one of the more understated colours (Black Denim, Grey etc), rather than the more outlandish options, this bag can look great being used for any kind of trip
A superb case.
It manages the compromise of sturdiness/weight very well. I like the top and side carry handles, the solidity of the pulling handle and the external straps on each side which enable you to compress the case to save space in transportation. I like, too, the way each half can be made a discrete unit with the zipped covers: you don’t have to rummage through the full depth of the case to reach things which makes for less disruption of one’s packing, and yet the case can be opened without things falling out from one or other half. There are sufficient internal and external pockets too for items you need to get at more easily.
What I don’t like is …….. nothing!
Really pleased with this, especially at the 60 or so I bought it for. Strongly recommended as a perfect plane carry on bag.
I bought this as a travel suitcase for a short weekend away. I already have a set of medium sized and one large sized in the Eastpak range, and I can’t fault them. There is ample room in each size, and the straps can be loosened or tightened, depending how full your case is. It has one compartments in the top and one in the bottom of the case, and you can fit lots in the middle too for when you fold the top shut.
When using it as a pull along, the wheels are smooth and relatively silent.
A recent addition to newer suitcases is the combination lock, which is supposed to be to replace padlocks so that airport security can open if necessary without wrecking the case. I must admit, I haven’t quite mastered how to use it yet, but its a good idea.
Highly recommended. And if you’re not too bothered about colour, you can get a fairly decent priced one here on Amazon.
I’ve tried cases with 4 wheels, they lose too much capacity for the convenience of the extra wheels.
I’ve tried the minimalist lightweight backpacks, but the lack of wheels can become a real drag if you’ve had a long week away from home.
I’ve tried the combo wheel/backpack cases, but they don’t really excel in any particular aspect.
This case gets the balance of portability and capacity just right.
The fabric sides offering a bit of flexibility to really pack things in combines well with the compression straps to make sure it will pass the airline size test, without the added weight from a hard shell case.
The wheels don’t take up too much space from the compartment, but offer a very smooth and effortless movement around busy airports.
There is only 2 main compartments and no real space to organise small items like cables, chargers etc, but honestly that’s fine IMO. You can really squeeze a lot of stuff in there, so you could get separate packing cubes and organisation items if needed, plus most airlines allow you to take an accessory bag (such as laptop bag), which is something I would recommend exploiting.
The handle is very good. Feels solid and well made, comparable to most other high end suitcases. If you have an accessory bag with a handle strap, there should be no concern with using it on this case.
It’s light, spacious and fits in overhead storage (it even looks small when fully packed so never gets checked on the weight)
Personally, I use this for travelling with work so I’m away between 2-4 days at a time. This case easily fits 4-5 days worth of clothing.
The maximum load I’ve been able to carry so far was 4 days clean clothes (both for work + the evenings), shoes, ipad and laptop all in this case alone.
Even if you you have to use a cheap airline and only 1 bag is allowed, you can slot your laptop bag in the top very easily.
It’s also great if you have OCD about packing and/or were a tetris champ
