Convertible Carry-On

• Carry-On with Confidence: It fits within most airlines' carry-on guidelines. (Note: It's possible to over-stuff soft-sided bags beyond carry-on limits, and risk rejection. Pack light!)
• Outside: The classic, Rick Steves outer-pocket design gives it a clean, efficient look. A full-length side zipper opens to reveal a 14" x 20" compartment (perfect for a jacket). Three additional front pockets, a mesh water bottle pocket, external compression straps, two grab handles, padded shoulder straps and waist belt, and a breathable mesh lumbar panel complete the outside.
• Inside: The generous main compartment includes adjustable compression straps, a clip-in document pouch with two mesh drawstring bags, and a full-width lid pocket.
• Convertibility: To use it as a suitcase (or check it as luggage), the shoulder straps and waist belt securely tuck away in the back. Handy D-rings give you the choice of adding our optional Over-the-Shoulder Strap.
• Expandability: Gain an extra 2 inches of cargo depth in a pinch (making it "fatter" than the carry-on limit, but perfect for checking).
• Colors: Available in black, graphite, blue spruce, and plum.
• Your Choice: Our no-frills Classic Back Door Bag is also sized to be European-carrier friendly.
