Eastpak TRANVERZ S Suitcase, 45 cm, 42 L

Lovely little suitcase to use as cabin luggage. I have taken it on Ryanair, WizzAir and EasyJet flights and it’s never been a problem size wise. It’s surprising just how much stuff will fit in it. It’s also really tough, and it got drenched in Icelandic weather and still stayed dry inside.

I spent a lot of time researching which carry on bag to purchase. While there are more expensive, sturdier and better looking carry ons out there, I decided to go with the Eastpak, mainly for the following reasons 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

If, like me, you are constantly on and off planes and trying to utilise the allowance to the absolute maximum without compromising quality and comfort then this definitely a case worth considering. 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.

My partner has had this suitcase for a number of years and I always borrowed it, in face I actually used it more times than him. It's so sturdy, sleek, made from quality material, shower proof and finally some wheels that don't go wonky over time! With it's two large pockets on either side of the bag with zips, a strap for extra security, not to mention a locking mechanism, this bag is light, handy and well designed. Whether you're packing for a long weekend away or heading out for a weeks holiday, it has ample enough room for one and even has a sleek front pocket for a book, magazine or your travel documents and with a number of colours to choose from, you're spoilt for choice! I'm very happy with my purchase and will certainly be purchasing the larger version for longer travel.

Worked out well for first train trip.

Purchased it so we could have it as a carry on case that most airlines would allow. Used recently on a 3 week trip without any issues. It’s sturdy enough to be wheeled around with at least 6-8kgs of clothes, grab handles usefully positioned to be able to easily lift into aircraft overhead lockers & still felt lightweight enough to easily manoeuvre at all times. Good to have separate zipped internal compartments too, though we are also users of travel cubes which really help us to keep our clothes neatly packed plus easy to find. Would certainly recommend both this case & the use of packing cubes for all your trips requiring a reliable carry on bag!

A truly great suitcase. Quality materials, perfect colour and fantastic price

First off, the size is great for short trips or as a carry-on. You can fit a decent amount of stuff inside without it feeling like you're lugging around a behemoth. And the interior organization? Pretty handy. It's got two main compartments to keep your gear sorted. Now, onto durability. It holds up great. If you had an Eastpak before you know these bags last forever if you are a bit careful. The materials seem the usual Eastpak durable high density balistic nylon, but don't expect it to survive a tumble down a flight of stairs without a scuff. The wheels are really good and feel robust the same with the handle. My only concern is that the space between the two wheels is not protected, leaving the nylon material exposed. If you are planning to use it on normal flat surfaces, pavements, or normal streets, then you will be fine. However, if you are planning to take it on a trip to rugged terrain, you might scuff it badly. There is an upgraded version of this bag (perhaps not available on Amazon) with hard plastic protecting the soft material between the two wheels, but it will cost you a bit more. Personally, I opted for this one as it is cheaper and a bit lighter, as I was only planning to use it for city breaks, short holidays, etc., where I won't have to worry. Despite a couple of things the TRANVERZ S gets points for functionality. It's a practical, light, nice-looking bag, with TSA lock and when you have to store it it takes up much less space than a traditional hard-shell one.

Come mi aspettavo! un buon trolley, capiente, resistente ed elegante Soprattutto giusto per le mie necessità di viaggio

echte Eastpak en geen illigale namaak

Me ha sorprendido muy gratamente. Estaba un poco rehacea porque tenía en mi cabeza la típica maleta cuadrada y esta me parecía un poco mochila, pero es perfecta. Justo eso le da el toque! La maleta no ocupa nada en si misma y para guardarla es lo mejor. Tiene más capacidad de lo que pensé y es muy estable, no se va de lado al rodarla ni hacia adelante por el peso de la ropa. De hecho le he colgado la mochila con el portatil en el asa y va estupendamente. Las ruedas son grandes y todo terreno. He tenido que pasar por césped y como si nada y además las ruedas no hacen ruido cuando vas por las aceras. Se limpia muy bien. Me ha gustado que el asa tiene dos posiciones y se puede poner corta o larga. Yo soy bajita y la llevo mejor con el asa corta ( asi no tropiezo con los demas). Estoy encantada! Ah! Y lo más importante, tiene las medidas de equipaje de mano reglamentario de las aerolineas y ademas pasa desapercibida porque como parece blanda no le ponen ninguna pega.

very nice

I love this bag for travelling! It fits under the seat in front on the airplane. I pack it for 2 weeks vacation and it’s perfect.
