What Is It: A 22″ inch wheeled carry-on bag.

Why It’s Smart:

• Spinner wheels let you smoothly roll the bag in every direction

• 22″ inch size fits the maximum carry-on allowance for most airlines

• Separated laundry compartment has an integrated air-valve so you can compress your clothes to save space

• Laundry bag zips out for easy cleaning

• Jacket strap on top of suitcase holds your extra layer when you’re not wearing it

• Expands an extra 2 inches

• Included add-a-bag strap lets you attach a purse or laptop case to the suitcase

• Designated umbrella holder separates a wet umbrella from the rest of your stuff

• Fairly lightweight (7.8 lbs)

Where to Buy: Available on Amazon.
