Weekender Expandable Duffel Bag

I just took this bag on a long weekend vacation and loved it! It held basically everything other than my clothes, even a pair of big sneakers when I decided to wear flats on the return train. It was a tiny bit unwieldy on top of my wheeled carry-on, but that might be because the trolley sleeve is big enough to fit over the handle of checked luggage, and my carry-on has a narrower handle. But it wasn't a problem, I just had to be a little more watchful when going around curves.

This is an excellent travel bag! The jewel of the bag is that it’s expandable. It’s the perfect size and holds a lot for its’ size. It’s sturdy and well made. I got the two wheeled tote to accompany this bag for a sophisticated look whizzing through airports or relaxing in airline lounges. Highly recommend!

I used this bag as a personal item on top of my carry on roller during a two week trip to Japan and it was wonderful. Previously, I was using backpacks but I found them hard to retrieve stuff from in airport terminals and under the airplane seat. There are a lot of duffle bags in this space advertising many features but I think this is a good middle ground between price and quality. Its nylon construction and limited structure makes it light (This is important. Many bags are too heavy!) and easy to pack flat if not needed. The laptop compartment is nice to use for travel documents and there are plenty of other zippered pockets for further organization. When moderately filled, it easily slides under the airplane seat. On my return flight, I stuffed it with snack souvenirs and used the expansion zippers to get more space. The only drawback I would say is the included cross body shoulder straps don't have a ton of support but they can easily be switched out if necessary. It sits quite nicely on top of my roller bag. I'm excited to use this bag again for the holidays.
