Travel + Leisure / Joy Kim

We’ve all been there: gearing up for a long weekend trip with friends or a significant other. Or maybe a quick work trip for that special client. Either way, it’s not a long enough duration to justify a carry-on suitcase or checked bag, but you still need to make sure you have enough room for a few changes of clothes and accessories.

We gathered up 56 of the best duffel bags available and are putting them to the test in the Travel + Leisure lab. We judged them based on capacity, organization, design, portability, durability, and value, and will continue to test them for an additional six months to make sure they stand up to real traveling. These are the best duffel bags for any trip you may be taking, whether skiing or jetting off to a sunny destination.

Best Overall

Bellroy classic weekender 45l.

This weekender is lightweight and easy to pack.

We wish the clips that attach the crossbody strap to the bag were made of metal rather than plastic.

We think the Bellroy Classic Weekender 45 is the overall best duffel bag you can buy. It’s more affordable than many of its counterparts and earned a perfect score during testing. While measuring its storage capacity, we found that it easily had space for four days of clothing and shoes, and we made special note of the accessibility of the wide mouth. Other bags on our list may have more pockets, but the storage of the Bellroy Classic Weekender is extremely useful, including a huge outer pocket that has a key leash and internal organization for small items like passports, wallets, or a phone. The three inner pockets are modest but are ideal for keeping all of your knick knacks close by. Snacks, chargers, sunglasses, or anything else you may need to find are all available with just a quick glance.

Another other area that the bag accels in is portability. It comes with two hand straps and a longer crossbody strap, the latter of which kept it secure against our body when fully packed but also made it comfortable to carry with just a few items in it. When compared to another bag we tested that was the same exact size and packed with the same exact items, this Bellroy duffel felt so much lighter and easier to carry. Some large duffels get bulky and cumbersome on the shoulder, but this was not the case for the Bellroy — it stayed magically lightweight, and we can picture carrying this long distances through airports and train stations.

The Details: 14.96 x 25.59 x 15.75 inches | 2.16 pounds | 45-liter capacity | Polyester | Water-resistant

Monos Metro Carry-All Duffel

This vegan leather bag looks sleek and expensive, but it won’t break the bank.

It would function better as a supplement travel companion than a do-it-all bag.

If you’re on the hunt for a duffel bag that won’t make you look like you’re just leaving the YMCA, pick up the Monos Carry All Duffel, our pick for the most stylish of the bunch. It comes in four colors, each of which looks exceptionally fashion-forward and is made from vegan leather that will only get better with time. (Without completely draining your wallet like real leather would.)

We were big fans of the roomy interior and the thoughtful organization, which we think kept the large main compartment from becoming too much of a mess, even when fully packed for a four-day trip. If this four-day trip involves a lot of walking, we aren't worried. We loved the comfort of the two hand straps and were impressed by the versatility and comfort of the shoulder strap — the shoulder pad was plush and didn’t fall up and down the strap.

The Details: 20 x 12 x 10.4 inches | 4.14 pounds | 27.3-liter capacity | Vegan leather

Best for Commuters

July carry all weekender.

This versatile bag shines in crowded places where space is at a premium.

It may not be able to hold enough for a full weekend away.

Ideal for the commuter that travels by plane, train, or automobile, the compact, super portable Carry All Weekender from July is a great pick for short trips, either to work, the gym, as a personal item on a plane, or on a quick two-day vacation. The bag has an internal laptop sleeve and pockets to keep small items in their rightful place, while the easy-to-pack main compartment holds onto the clothes you’re toting along with you. We do wish it had a bit more storage, though, just to be safe.

The bag comes with a pass-through band so you can easily add it to your rolling luggage when trips go beyond a few days, while the brand’s signature QuickPass pocket uses a powerful magnet as its closing mechanism, meaning you won’t have to fuss with a zipper each time you reach for your passport or wallet. It also features a removable padded shoulder strap and external D rings to use as attachment points.

The Details: 10.5 x 18 x 8.5 inches | 2.2 pounds | 28-liter capacity | Nylon | Water-resistant

Best Convertible

Dagne dover lagos convertible duffel bag.

Dagne Dover

It’s one of the most versatile bags we tested, with the ability to convert it from a duffel into a backpack.

It’s much pricier than other bags on this list.

If you prefer a duffel bag that you can wear in any which way, the Lagos Convertible Duffel is an excellent choice. It’s got hard-wearing hand straps, just like your average duffel, but you can also transform it into a crossbody or a backpack depending on where you’re going, what you’re doing and if you might need to use your hands.

While its cavernous, pocket-laden interior is easily able to fit all of your gear, we loved that it still could be made small enough to count as a personal item on an airplane, leaving your carry-on slot for something bigger. The bag weighs just over two pounds when empty, so it’s easy to fold up and stow in that carry-on if you think you might be bringing home more than you left with. We also found that it was exceptionally durable and water-resistant.

The Details: 16 x 11 x 11 inches | 2.15 pounds | 32-liter capacity | Polyester

Best With Shoe Compartment

Calpak luka duffel bag.

The shoe compartment makes this an essential bag for sneakerheads.

This might not be big enough for longer weekend trips, but it does come in a larger size.

We found that the Calpak Luka was perfect for two-day trips, but could easily be used on longer trips as a supplemental bag or personal item. The multiple interior pockets are ideal for socks and underwear, while the shoe compartment holds either two pairs of regular shoes or one pair of boots — a must have feature for a shoe aficionado.

The thick polyester material is nice to the touch, but we suspect that it won't be as long-lasting as some of the other bags on this list. However, at just over $100, this bag is chic enough to turn heads and spacious enough to keep all your gear in one place, including that ever important extra pair of kicks. It also comes in an impressive color range no matter what your taste.

The Details: 12 x 16 x 7 inches | 2.1 pounds | 22-liter capacity | Polyester | Water-resistant

Best for Camping

Yeti crossroads duffel bag.

This durable bag is built to last, with abrasion-resistant material that will stand up to rugged camping trips.

This is too large to be a carry-on, and the shoulder strap could be more comfortable.

Like all Yeti products, this duffel looks and feels like it was built to last, making it the ideal option for camping trips and rugged adventures. It's made of a proprietary TuffSkin nylon that helps the bag keep its shape and resist damage and dirt. The bottom of the bag is made of a harder shell for extra protection (though this means it can't pack down teeny tiny for storage). The Crossroads's interior organization features really stood out during testing with two dividers that create three sections for separating different types of items and several smaller pockets for belongings like phones, wallets, and chargers. Two exterior pockets on the top provide yet more slots for your stuff (though these two pockets are pretty small).

The bag has three handles for carrying — one on each end and another on top — as well as a detachable shoulder strap. The strap has a firm, flat section meant to mold to your shoulder area, but it could be a little more comfortable. Overall, it's a sturdy, durable piece with good organization, and it's a great choice for longer trips or outdoor camping adventures. Plus, the three-year warranty will give you some peace of mind as you take it on its first few forays into the wilderness.

The Details:  24 x 12.5 x 12.5 inches | 4.3 pounds | 60-liter capacity | Nylon

Best Budget

Gonex canvas duffel bag.

It's comfortable to carry and has generous side pockets.

Because you can pack so much in it, this bag becomes heavy quickly and can be difficult to carry.

Our favorite things about the Gonex Canvas are the price, flexibility, pockets, and durability. We love the sheer number of pockets and zippered compartments that it has. Aside from the main compartment, there are five additional zippered compartments on the outside, and the inside has an additional zippered pouch and two pockets for holding your wallet, keys, phone, and other small items. Plus, it's one of the  best lightweight luggage  options on the market.

The strap handles for this bag can be secured together under a flap, and the shoulder strap is nicely padded; carrying it was comfortable. The exterior canvas won't attract dirt, and the bag protected all cargo and showed no damage or scuffs during our durability testing. We also love that there are several color options and patterns to choose from.

The Details:  17 x 11 x 10 inches | 2.8 pounds | 50-liter capacity | Cotton canvas

Best for Long Trips

Thule chasm sport duffel bag.

It comes with a packing cube, and it's made of strong materials.

It doesn't have any external pockets.

Thule is best known for its car top carriers, but the brand brings its knack for sturdy cargo storage to this duffel bag as well. We were all impressed with the durable, waterproof tarpaulin exterior and the spacious, pocketed interior — though an exterior pocket or two would have been nice. It even comes with a packing cube that can be used for clothing, toiletries, or a smaller pair of shoes.

Coming in four sizes, we also loved that the bag can be held either by the handles or by the very comfortable backpack straps. It's a bit strange that there's no shoulder strap option, but we did not find ourselves missing it. The Chasm nailed our durability tests and is a great option for longer trips or even weekends in the outdoors.

The Details:  29 x 17 x 13 inches | 4.4 pounds | 90-liter capacity | Nylon | Water-resistant

The Spruce / Nick Kova

We've tested duffel bags on multiple occasions in our New York City lab, trying out 56 bags overall. First, we weighed each duffel bag with a luggage scale and noted whether the weight was the same as the weight listed by the manufacturer. Then we measured the length, width, and depth (height) of each bag and made the same comparison.

Next, we got packing. We ordered dozens of identical outfits and packed three pairs of pants (a mix of jeans and sweats), two coats (one fleece, one jacket), five shirts, two pairs of shoes, a full toiletry bag, and a coffee mug into each bag. We answered questions that included: how well does everything fit? Is there enough space to keep the clothes tidy, or do you really have to jam them in there? Can you zip it up easily? We also took careful notes of the organizational and structural features of each bag as we packed, looking for useful pockets, compartments, sleeves, and other features.

Then we walked around carrying each bag after it was packed, spending several minutes trying out each possible carrying method and noting comfort and ease levels.

Finally, with the bags fully packed and zipped closed, we pushed them off of a ladder or table several times each, trying to make them land on different parts of the bag each time. We examined them for scratches, marks, scuffs, etc., and we opened the interior to be sure everything held up. We then carried the bags around again to check for any changes or problems.

After our lab testing process, we sorted through our team's feedback and analyzed the information to recommend the highest quality products. We continued to test each of the winners over the course of six months to make sure they held up in our real travels. We also will continue to update this article as we test even more duffel bags worth buying.

Other Duffel Bags We Liked

Some of the duffel bags we tested did not make our list of recommendations. They all had positive attributes, but a few things held them back.

The North Face Base Camp Medium Duffel Bag : This bag performed so-so on most of our tests, but a finicky zipper that kept getting stuck kept it off our winners list.

Tumi Double Expansion Travel Satchel : The bag looks good but it's a little too expensive for the very limited capacity.

Baboon to the Moon Go-bag Big : While spacious, we found it awkward to carry for longer than a minute or two.

Carhartt Trade Series 2-in-1 Packable Duffel with Utility Pouch : It was fine overall, but the near-complete lack of organizational features meant it was not a standout.

Briggs & Riley Weekender Duffel : This straightforward bag has everything you need for a weekend trip. It’s not packed with features or fashion, but if you’re looking for a standard, no-fuss option, this duffel may be for you.

Herschel Bennett Duffel : With a special shoe compartment and a suite of pockets, this bag from Herschel is one of the most spacious duffels we tried. While we wish it had a dedicated laptop sleeve, we think it’s great for someone who’s looking for a large duffel bag.

Tips for Buying a Duffel Bag

Comfort is key.

If your duffel bag doesn't roll, then you will be carrying it, so you want to make sure it's comfortable to do so. Look for duffels that are lightweight and have padded straps, as well as different carrying options. Many duffels come with a detachable and adjustable shoulder strap so you can ensure your bag is the perfect length for you. Consider a convertible duffel with backpack straps if carrying by hand or perhaps a rolling duffel with wheels. A good goal may also be to find a bag under three pounds so it starts out lightweight and won't minimize the amount of items you can pack.

Know your organization needs

Some duffels are simply single compartments, some have dividers, some have lots of pockets. For business travel, look for bags with laptop sleeves and pouches for things like chargers, keys, and wallets. If you're more of the spur-of-the-moment roadtripping type, a simple one-compartment bag lets you throw all your belongings in with ease and without too much thinking. If you want to keep dirty clothes separate from clean ones or your shoes away from your shirts, look for a bag with interior dividers. It's a matter of personal choice; just be sure to pay attention to details about pockets, pouches, shoe bags, and other special features before making your purchase.

Look for durable materials

Whether your travels include packing for an Irish vacation or a hike to your local campground, you need a bag that will survive the journey. Bags made of materials like nylon, polyester, and most vinyls are likely to be waterproof, protecting your bag from the elements. Meanwhile canvas and leather bags may not be water-resistant, but the thick and durable materials should prevent against rips and tears.

Frequently Asked Questions

It all depends on the size. There’s no hard-and-fast rule because duffel bag sizes widely vary. But as a general rule, if your duffel bag can fit beneath the seat in front of you, it’ll be considered a personal item . If it’s too big to fit underneath an airplane seat, you will then need to place it in the overhead bin, and it will be counted as a carry-on. If the bag exceeds your airline's carry-on size restrictions, you will need to check it.

Yes, in almost all cases you can check a duffel bag. Just be sure to secure the straps and handles so they don’t get caught during processing. If you have a high-end duffel bag, just be careful as checked baggage is susceptible to rough handling during transit. And keep in mind that if the duffel bag does not have a lot of protective padding, your items inside may break, so be sure to keep any fragile or valuable items in your carry-on.

It’s best to pack your heavier items first so that they act as an anchor and keep your bag in position. Apparel such as shirts and pants should be rolled up in the shape of a cylinder to prevent wrinkling. Then you can store smaller items such as socks or accessories in the extra free space or in dedicated pockets. You can also use compression packing cubes to help make the most of your space.

How you clean a duffel bag will depend on the material and the manufacturer's recommendations. Sometimes bags are machine washable, but we'd suggest spot cleaning to play it safe. You can usually use mild dish soap and a damp cloth or paper towel to get out dirt or stains. Water-resistant materials may help protect your bag more than materials like cotton or canvas.

Other Duffels We've Written About

If none of the duffel bags above are catching your eye, here are some other standout duffels that may suit your needs.

Patagonia Wheeled Duffel Bag : Having a wheeled option means you can easily roll your duffel around the airport instead of carrying on your shoulder, and this Patagonia option is our favorite out of all the wheeled duffel bags we've tested. It comes in three sizes, and we tested the massive 100-liter version, which is impressively spacious.

Travel + Leisure/Jhett Thompson

Yeti Panga Dry Duffel : If you need something that will stand up to rainy destinations, this large Yeti bag is our favorite waterproof duffel. In fact, you can fully submerge it in water three feet deep for up to 30 minutes, and nothing inside will get wet thanks to the locking, leakproof zipper.

Aer Travel Weekender : If you're looking for something smaller in size that you won't have to pay to check, this 35-liter weekender topped our list of our favorite carry-on duffel bags . It's easy to carry with the adjustable shoulder strap, and it has a padded laptop pocket.

Royce New York Leather Duffel Bag : This pebbled leather duffel is our top pick for leather duffel bags , serving as a stylish carry-all for weekends away. There's an option to monogram the bag for a special touch.

Calpak Luggage Is Worth Every Bit of Hype

By Meaghan Kenny

A collage.

All products featured on Condé Nast Traveler are independently selected by our editors. However, when you buy something through our retail links, we may earn an affiliate commission.

Calpak first caught my attention when I got my hands on its popular Luka duffel bag that had previously racked up a 44,000-person-deep waiting list. It quickly became my favorite weekender bag of all time, accompanying me on all of my NYC weekend getaways to New England and the Jersey Shore , and as my personal item on several flights I took this year—and that was only the beginning of my love affair with Calpak. Since then, I've tried out a variety of bags and travel accessories from the brand and I've never been disappointed. As a chronic overpacker, I look for smart travel gear that offers me ample space, pockets, and ways to stay organized on the go—and Calpak gets it . And my fellow Condé Nast Traveler editors agree: Calpak is consistently designing reliable and functional luggage that gets the job done in style.

Something our editors love: Calpak has luggage for every type of traveler, whether you're an outdoor enthusiast requiring durable, water-resistant gear or a commuter who needs comfortable bags that are just as protective as they are aesthetically pleasing. And even better, Calpak proves you don't need to spend an arm and a leg to get quality luggage that won't break or dent after one run-in with baggage handlers' less-than-gentle care.

Our editors spent the last several months testing checked suitcases, carry-ons, weekenders, and backpacks from top-selling brands as a part of our first-ever Luggage Week . Among those brands was Calpak, the Los Angeles–based travel brand I've come to rely on, not only for long-haul flights , but for day-to-day, too. Below, we've gathered the best of the best from Calpak: the essential suitcases, weekenders, backpacks, and travel accessories that are absolutely worth the hype. If you're on the hunt for some new travel gear ahead of your next adventure, these are the suitcases and bags from Calpak we recommend bringing along.

This article is part of Condé Nast Traveler' s first-ever Luggage Week , for which dozens of suitcases, backpacks, and weekender bags were road-tested by our editors.

The best luggage from Calpak:

Duffel bags, backpacks and totes, travel accessories.

travel women's duffle bags large

What we love most : The exterior pocket keeps your laptop protected.

Dimensions : 14" x 10" x 21"

Every traveler needs a go-to carry-on they can bring just about anywhere. This sleek, hard-sided carry-on features a protective front compartment that's designed to fit tablets and laptops that are up to 16 inches. Calpak's carry-on is the perfect combination of functional and stylish, with dual spinner wheels and a TSA–approved lock. Inside, you'll find two main compartments, multiple side pockets, and compression straps that help you pack a few extra outfits. This carry-on is a favorite of executive editor Erin Florio : “The inner compartments make it really easy to organize all your items, which helps you fit more,” she says. It's lightweight, durable, and well-designed for every type of traveler, whether you're a minimalist who packs just the essentials or an overpacker in need of the compression straps and extra pockets.

travel women's duffle bags large

What we love most : The design and chic color options, dual spinning wheels, and expandable feature

Dimensions : 19" x 12" x 30"

For international vacations or long road trips when you need a little extra room, this large checked suitcase is a perfect option. The Ambeur large luggage offers a packing capacity of 112 liters, so you have a lot of space to work with. Global director of audience development Lara Kramer was able to pack enough clothes, shoes, and toiletries for her and her husband on a four-day trip to Valley Cottage, New York. “An individual traveler could easily get away with packing a week’s worth of clothes and accessories, possibly even two travelers with the right packing skills,” says Kramer. This checked bag features two spacious main compartments and three additional zippered compartments of varying sizes that are ideal for packing delicate items like jewelry or beauty products. Kramer loves this suitcase for its generous size, chic style, and reasonable price point. Plus, the Ambeur large luggage is covered by Calpak’s two-year warranty , so you can feel extra confident with your purchase. And one of its best features: “The luggage is expandable by two inches, so I was able to bring home those extra souvenirs,” says Kramer. It glides smoothly through the airport, features a built-in TSA–approved lock, and is so durable—so you don't have to worry about handling it too carefully.

travel women's duffle bags large

What we love most : Separate shoe compartment, trolley sleeve, easy-to-clean material

Dimensions: 16" x 7"x 12"

I've waxed poetic about how much I love the Luka duffel for weekend trips and as my go-personal item on flights. And yes, it deserves every bit of hype. It's that perfect in-between size: small enough to comfortably carry when full and fit under the seat on airplanes, but large enough to hold enough clothes for a full weekend trip. There's much to love about this duffel, but its ultra-soft and easy-to-clean material make it stand out. Even when it's full, the top carry handle feels soft on my shoulder. And if you've really packed it, there's also a long adjustable strap that can be worn as a crossbody to better distribute the weight. After traveling, I always give it a quick cleaning with a disinfecting wipe and it looks good as new. There's a zippered compartment on the exterior for essentials like your wallet and phone, and a water bottle pocket. Inside, you'll find a spacious main section, multiple pockets (including a mesh one), and a zippered compartment. Another one of my favorite features: the separate shoe compartment that holds an extra pair of sneakers or slippers (a complete game-changer when packing for weekend trips).

travel women's duffle bags large

What we love most : It fits more than the average weekender.

Dimensions : 19" x 10" x 16"

Calpak launched its best-selling Luka duffel in a larger version—overpackers, this one's for you. While it's a little too big to fit under an airplane seat as a personal item, it's a perfect size for trips longer than two days (think extended weekends or shorter vacations). It's made of the same soft, puffer-like material as the original version and features the same long adjustable strap, top carry handle, and hidden shoe compartment. If you often take weekend trips or short getaways, a larger duffel bag will come in handy. While the original version fits two days' worth of clothes, I'm able to fit a lot more in the larger version—usually three to four days' worth of clothes (maybe even five if you're a light packer). It features plenty of pockets inside for keeping essentials organized and a trolley sleeve so you can secure it to your suitcase handle.

travel women's duffle bags large

What we love most : The laptop compartment, water bottle pocket, and trolley sleeve

Dimensions : 12" x 7" x 16"

If you prefer to bring a backpack as your personal item, but still want plenty of room for storing in-flight essentials, the Luka laptop backpack is for you. You get all the comfort and hands-free benefits of a backpack without compromising on space. There are two spacious main compartments: One side features a laptop sleeve with enough room to also fit an iPad, and the other compartment has multiple pockets for your wallet, keys, and chargers. There’s also a spacious zippered compartment on the outside for essentials you want easy access to, like your phone or headphones, and a water bottle pocket. This lightweight bag is a lot roomier than other backpacks I’ve used in the past and is versatile enough to bring to work, on road trips, and as a personal item. I love how it stays in such great condition after traveling with it: The scratch-resistant material can be cleaned easily with any disinfectant wipe. I’ve also never had a backpack with a built-in luggage trolley sleeve—a true game changer for navigating through the airport. Plus, the soft, adjustable straps don’t hurt my shoulders even after carrying it for a full day. It’s available in a variety of bright limited-edition colors and classic colorways including rose quartz, chocolate, oat, and black.

What we love most : It's versatile and can be expanded by two inches.

Dimensions: 20" x 7" x 14"

The Luka expandable laptop tote is another ideal personal item for long-haul flights or for busy commuters on the go. I bring this with me on my trek into the office every day and the super-soft top handle never digs into my shoulder. It's roomy enough to store my laptop, water bottle, lunch bag, notebook, and a cosmetic pouch. Inside, there are several pockets to keep items like my wallet and sunglasses organized; the laptop sleeve holds my 15" laptop securely in place. I've always struggled to find a tote bag that's durable enough to hold a full day's worth of essentials and is still stylish. This laptop tote does it all: It's lightweight, stain-resistant, and looks so chic. Beyond my office commutes, I've taken this with me on day trips to the beach and on flights (it features a trolley sleeve, too). And saving its best feature for last: It's expandable by two inches, so just when you think you've run out of packing room, you haven't.

What we love most : This set features cubes with a durable mesh fabric and a water-resistant pouch.

Behold the ultimate travel accessory : packing cubes . These are our editors' secret weapon for fitting everything we need in our suitcases and staying organized on trips. Calpak's packing cubes come in a set of five varying in size—larger cubes are best used for bulkier items like jeans or sweaters , medium cubes for shirts and shoes, and small ones for socks and underwear. When I'm traveling, I always keep one packing cube empty for dirty clothes—that way I can separate them from the rest of my clean items. And if you prefer to live out of your suitcase instead of unpacking when you arrive at a hotel, packing cubes help you quickly find exactly what you're looking for. Plus, they allow you to fit more clothes in your suitcase and protect them in case liquids unexpectedly leak during a flight. Choose from over a dozen fun colors and patterns.

What we love most : This transparent case makes finding exactly what you need easy.

Dimensions : 5"x 8" x 10"

Calpak also designs some of our favorite cosmetic bags for travel. The medium clear case is ideal for travelers who wouldn't dare skip a step in their skincare or beauty routines—it can fit a lot of product. The case unzips fully so each side can lay flat and products can be separated into its different compartments. There's also an extra mesh interior pocket for smaller essentials and a top handle that makes it easy to carry or store on a bathroom hook. Our editors love this makeup bag for its large size and transparent material that makes finding your products easy. I usually pack all of my makeup products on one side and either hair or skincare essentials on the other. Its also quite sturdy—I never worry about any products getting squashed or broken while in transit. Calpak's clear cosmetic cases are also available in a small and a large size (made for the serious overpackers).

What we love most : There are 16 fun colors to choose from.

Dimensions: 7" x 2" x 10"

You'll wish you packed a tech organizer the next time you're searching for your charger in your filled-to-the-brim Mary Poppins bag. A tech organizer keeps cords, portable chargers, earbuds, and any other digital gear neat, easy to find, and tangle-free. This lay-flat organizer features elastics that hold rolled-up cords and a zippered pouch for charging bricks or AirPods. We never travel without one of these organizers in our carry-ons.

What we love most: It's made of water-resistant material and has an insulated interior.

Dimensions : 4" x 4" x 11"

This travel must-have comes highly recommended by senior commerce editor Madison Flager . For days outdoors spent hiking or bike riding when you'd rather be hands-free, Calpak's water bottle sling bag is a smart choice. It keeps your water bottle insulated and secure, and holds small items like sunscreen, cash, or your phone. Wear it as a sling bag with its detachable shoulder strap or hold it by the top carry handle.

Calpak Review: Is the Popular Luggage Worth The Hype?

We've put some of the most popular styles from Calpak to the test. These are the picks that we think are worth buying.

calpak reviewa couple of shopping carts

We've been independently researching and testing products for over 120 years. If you buy through our links, we may earn a commission. Learn more about our review process.

If you're anything like me and want to travel in style but still need luggage that's going to hold up to your frequent flyer status, look no further than Calpak.

As an analyst at the Good Housekeeping Institute , I test and write about all kinds of luggage — from carry-ons to checked bags , hardside suitcases to softside styles — and I can't get enough of Calpak's pieces, and neither can many of my fellow GH analysts and editors as well as our consumer testers . We've taken the brand's luggage on our own vacations, and it regularly stands out as a top performer in our Lab tests, beating out popular pieces from other well-known brands.

Read on to learn more about some of the most popular pieces Calpak offers and our honest insights into why we think they're worth the investment.

Calpak Ambeur Carry-On Luggage

Ambeur Carry-On Luggage

The sleek and sturdy hardsided suitcases of Calpak's Ambeur collection are designed with wheels that roll effortlessly over carpet, tile and wood floor. Each piece is lightweight with comfortable carrying handles that make it easy to lift, so I don't have to worry about holding up the line when I'm loading my suitcase into the overhead bin on a plane. The polycarbonate and ABS plastic composite material held up well in our drop tests without dents but did show more surface-level scratches than other suitcases we've tested, so there's a possibility you may notice some scuffs and marks after retrieving your bag from the luggage carousel.

I love the interior of the carry-on bag, which unzips to two primary packing compartments: one side with a full zippered panel and another with compression straps to secure your belongings in place. There are plenty of organizational features like two zippered mesh pockets and a removable mesh toiletries bag, and as a self-proclaimed over-packer, I'm especially fond of the 2-inch expansion system so I can fill the suitcase with my favorite vacation clothes and shoes and still have room for souvenirs.

Calpak Luka Soft-Sided Carry-On Luggage

Luka Soft-Sided Carry-On Luggage

Puffy padding is totally on-trend right now, and Calpak gets it. The brand's Luka collection includes this cute softside carry-on that has a special tapered design to help keep it upright when you stuff it full of your belongings. The carry-on is on the smaller side, so it's not ideal for a long trip, but it's perfect for a weekend getaway or to hold your travel must-haves if you're checking a larger bag. I'm a fan of the two outer pockets that take some of the stress out of the TSA line. Instead of digging through your bag for your laptop or boarding pass, there's a larger front pocket that's equipped to hold a 17-inch laptop and a smaller side pocket that can fit your passport and ID.

Inside, you'll find one main packing compartment with secure compression straps and elasticized mesh pockets built into the lid for more organization. The suitcase is made with a smooth polyester material that should be easy to wipe clean after a long trip. It's equipped with 360-spinner wheels and padded handles to make rolling the bag through a busy airport a little easier.

Duffels and backpacks

Calpak luka duffel.

Luka Duffel

Just as chic as its carry-on counterpart, Calpak's Luka duffel is a favorite of GH analysts and editors and is our number one pick for weekender bags . The trendy duffel fits everything you need for a short trip, and when we packed it with a weekend's worth of clothing, accessories and toiletries, there was room to spare. There's a separate shoe compartment, water bottle pocket and a zippered outer pocket to easily access your essentials. You'll find even more elastic and zippered pockets inside to stash smaller items.

a gh staffer carrying the calpak luka duffel

The padded shoulder straps are comfortable to throw over your shoulder and don't dig in (pictured here). There's a removable crossbody strap too. If you don't want to lug around a bag while you're on the go, you'll find the luggage strap on this duffel to be especially handy. Simply slide the luggage sleeve over your suitcase's telescopic handle, and you can roll it around on top of your suitcase. One GH analyst who brought this duffel on a weekend trip noticed some unraveling at the seams around the luggage sleeve, but it remained in great shape overall. The material was easy to wipe clean, and it's water-resistant to keep your things dry, even if you're traveling in wet weather.

Calpak Terra Large 50L Duffel Backpack

Terra Large 50L Duffel Backpack

Perfect for your next adventure, this travel backpack is made of a laminated polyester ripstop material that's rugged and water resistant. The straps are padded for a more comfortable feel, and there's a sternum strap for extra support. The versatile backpack actually doubles as a duffel bag — just unbuckle the backpack straps, tuck them away and attach the crossbody strap to carry it over your shoulder. And it even has a luggage sleeve to slide over the handle of your favorite suitcase (pictured here).

Because the sides and bottom of the backpack aren't structured, you're able to fill it with everything you need, but that means it's also easy to overstuff, which can make it difficult to zip or become too heavy, causing the straps to dig into your shoulders. When you're packing the backpack, you'll find that it's completely full of organizational features — inside and out. There are small, zippered pockets on the outside of the bag to stow away your travel necessities, a water bottle pocket on the side and buckles to attach items you may not be able to fit inside, such as a travel blanket or poncho. Inside, there's a padded laptop pocket, along with compression straps and additional mesh zippered pockets.

Calpak Kaya 15 inch Laptop Backpack

Kaya 15 inch Laptop Backpack

If you're traveling for business or want something a little chicer, Calpak's Kaya laptop backpack is for you. This streamlined style is a favorite of GH analysts and editors, earning a top spot as our best work backpack . It's made of faux leather and features elegant details like gold hardware for the zippers and pulls, a rectangular shape and stitched trim. It's available in a collection of seven core colors like grey, black and navy, along with nearly 20 bold limited hues like lavender, bronze and emerald. The straps are thin and unpadded, so they can start to feel uncomfortable with extended wear, and I find the bag is best to use for a shorter commute.

To relieve the stress on your shoulders, there's a luggage sleeve that you can slide over your suitcase handle for easy transport. The backpack is equally as practical as it is stylish and can hold a significant amount of your belongings, including a 15-inch laptop, and there are a lot of small pockets inside for sunglasses, pens and notebooks.

Travel accessories

Calpak packing cubes set (5 pieces).

Packing Cubes Set (5 Pieces)

I bring packing cubes with me on every single trip I take, even when I'm just carrying a backpack or weekender bag. These from Calpak help me keep all my belongings organized and easy to access on my journey and once I reach my destination , so I don't have to rummage through my suitcase to find what I'm looking for. They're not compressive like some of Calpak's other packing cubes , so they do take up more room in my bag than some other styles I've tried. That said, they feature breathable mesh details that help clothes to feel fresh, even after they've been shoved in a bag for days.

Calpak Large Clear Cosmetics Case

Large Clear Cosmetics Case

Another one of our staffers' favorites, Calpak's large toiletries case will hold everything you need, including some full-size products. At $95, this isn't the most affordable option on the market, but it's designed with thoughtful details like carrying handles, metal feet to keep it upright and a mesh pocket inside for your smaller items. The transparent case makes it easy to show your liquids during TSA screenings, and you can clearly see everything you packed without having to spend forever digging around to find it. The PVC material also makes it a breeze to wipe clean when your makeup or skincare products inevitably leak in your bag.

What to look for in a toiletry bag, best overall: july vanity cosmetic case.

Image may contain: Accessories, Bag, and Handbag

Vanity Cosmetic Case

  • Why we love it: Toiletries can easily be jostled en route to a destination, whether that’s on an international flight or a walk from the linen closet to the bathroom. July’s Vanity Cosmetic Case rises to the challenge of keeping everything—from bottles to brushes—in place. With enough height to stow bottles upright, it also has side elastics that keep small products secure. Internal and external pockets make it easy to organize products into tidy collections, and a removable pouch can be carried onto the plane. Finally, a sturdy leather top handle makes for easy portability.
  • Dimensions: 9.84 x 6.30 x 7.87 inches

Best Two-Pack: Cuyana Travel Case Set

Image may contain: Cushion, Home Decor, Electronics, Speaker, Accessories, Sunglasses, Bag, and Handbag

Travel Case Set

  • Why we love it: Two are better than one when it comes to storage options. This duo from Cuyana pairs a small, pebbled leather bag with a larger counterpart. This makes it easy to separate products by size; or, should you wish, to use the smaller bag in your carry-on suitcase while stowing the larger one in checked baggage. The leather lining is easy to clean—any wet washcloth will whisk away any trace of a makeup mishap—and the exterior Argentinian leather is available in 16 tempting shades. Colors range from a demure blush (a bestseller) to a chili-pepper red.
  • Dimensions: Large bag 7 x 12 x 3.5 inches; small bag 5 x 8 x 2.5 inches

Best for Your Purse: Everlane The ReNew Transit Catch-All Case

Image may contain: Cushion, Home Decor, Accessories, Bag, Handbag, and Furniture

The ReNew Transit Catch-All Case

  • Why we love it: Made from 100% recycled polyester, Everlane’s case has a collapsible structure. This makes it adaptable to different types of getaways: If it’s a beach weekend where only SPF is required, collapse the case to make room for more bikinis. Or, if you’re headed to a destination wedding that mandates a full face of glam, take advantage of the case’s six pockets to arrive fully stocked. It’s also easy to stow in your purse, for touch-ups on the go.
  • Dimensions: Folded: 9 x 4.5 x 4.5 inches; unfolded: 11 x 9 x 6.5 inches

Best for Makeup: Béis The Cosmetics Case

Image may contain: Bag, Accessories, Handbag, and Briefcase

The Cosmetics Case

  • Why we love it: Traveling with makeup in tow makes the occasional foundation leak or eyeshadow crumble all but inevitable. Luckily, this minimalist travel case was designed to take the sting out of spills. With faux leather on the outside and PVC material on the inside, it’s easy to wipe clean. Plus, special features—including hidden magnets that hold multiple makeup brushes and a portable mirror with a prop-up stand—allow one to travel like a true makeup artiste.
  • Dimensions: 9.5 x 7.5 x 4 inches

Best Clear: Calpak Large Clear Cosmetics Case

Image may contain: Accessories, Bag, Handbag, and Purse

Large Clear Cosmetics Case

  • Why we love it: Whether you’re looking for your favorite blush on a European vacation or choosing a lipgloss before work in the morning, a clear cosmetics case makes it easy to see what you’re working with. Calpak’s see-through case not only comes through with visibility. It also has two separate, roomy storage containers that make it simple to stash lots of products. What’s more, two top handles make the bag easy to whisk around, and a zippered interior pocket serves as a convenient catch-all for small items like tweezers and single eyeshadows.
  • Dimensions: 11.5 x 5.25 x 9 inches

Best Hanging: Away The Hanging Toiletry Bag

Image may contain: Accessories, Bag, Handbag, and Baggage

The Hanging Toiletry Bag

  • Why we love it: Rather than rifling through your toiletry bag, why not hang it up so that all its contents can be readily displayed? With a hook made for hanging on a wall or a door, Away’s Hanging Toiletry Bag has three mesh pouches for easy—and ample—storage. Water-resistant and easy to clean, it also has a detachable clear pouch, which can stow travel-sized liquid items.
  • Dimensions: 9.6 x 3.74 x 6.6 inches

Best Compact: Dagne Dover Mila Toiletry Organizer

Image may contain: Furniture, and Mailbox

Dagne Dover

Mila Toiletry Organizer

DAGNE DOVER

  • Why we love it: Made of recycled polyester, the eco-friendly bag has a compact, circular structure that takes up minimal space in luggage. Its upright design makes it handy for storing liquid sans spills, and it has six adjustable compartments to keep the products snug. A triangular metal clip keeps odds and ends—such as hair ties— neatly in place, while a removable mesh pouch can be stored in one’s purse for touch-ups on the go.
  • Dimensions: 5.5 x 5.5 x 5.5 inches

Best Upright: The Container Store Parallelle Traveler Bag

Image may contain: Accessories, Bag, Handbag, Baggage, and Purse

The Container Store

Parallelle Traveller Bag

THE CONTAINER STORE

  • Why we love it: Traveling with tubes, brushes, and bottles that are better stored upright? This sleek bag has a unique design that keeps products standing tall. Simply unzip its top and the sides fold down, revealing compartments, pouches, and adjustable dividers that keep items organized. A reinforced base adds to the upright integrity, letting the bag stand free without toppling over.
  • Dimensions: 4.5 x 8 x 7 inches

Best for Just the Essentials: Rains Wash Small Bag

Image may contain: Bag, Accessories, and Handbag

Wash Bag Small

  • Why we love it: When you need to take your core product collection on the road—and are leaving the extra brushes and slew of color options at home— Rains’ compact bag lends itself to traveling light. The small pouch has one compartment, which can handily store the staples of an everyday makeup or skincare regime. Designed for ultimate durability, the 100% polyester bag is also waterproof, and has a carry handle for easy portability.
  • Dimensions: 5.1 x 8.3 x 4.3 inches

Best for a Carry-On: Telena Makeup Bag

Image may contain: Accessories, Bag, Handbag, and Purse

  • Why we love it: If you’re looking for a makeup bag to carry on board, “Consider Telena’s zippered pouch,” Vogue beauty shopping writer Kiana Murden suggests . “[It’s] wide enough to fit all your cosmetics, yet still compact to pop in your purse or personal item for easy access.” The water-resistant, large-capacity bag keeps items organized, too—it has interior pockets for color cosmetics, a zippered pouch that’s long enough for brushes, and plenty of room for travel-sized skincare.
  • Dimensions: 4.72 x 4.72 x 9.84 inches

Best Monogrammed: Paravel See-All Vanity Case

Image may contain: Accessories, Bag, Handbag, and Pencil Box

See-All Vanity Case

  • Why we love it: For a makeup bag with a personal touch, Paravel’s vanity case can be customized with hand-painted monograms. Available in 14 hues, the letters can be further embellished with foil accents or handmade emojis. Deck out the case with everything from a cute bumblebee to a classic red heart—whichever design you choose, the transparent case will make it easy to see and stow travel essentials.
  • Dimensions: 5.5 x 3.75 x 8.5 inches

Best for Makeup Brushes: Kusshi Vacationer Leather Makeup Brush Organizer

Image may contain: Firearm, Weapon, and Cutlery

Vacationer Leather Makeup Brush Organizer

  • Why we love it: For the makeup brush aficionado, Kusshi’s leather organizer stows all the necessary tools for a dramatic contour, a fluffy swirl of blush, or any other makeup look. (Or for fresh breath—there’s also a spot for a toothbrush.) With a removable liner that’s machine-washable, the spacious organizer has 11 pockets and typically holds some 30 products. What’s more, it protects products’ cleanliness while on the go: The organizer is not only resistant to water and stains; it’s also antimicrobial and anti-mold.
  • Dimensions: 7 x 13.5 x 5.75 inches

Best Splurge: Westman Atelier

Image may contain: Accessories, Bag, and Handbag

Westman Atelier

The Train Case

WESTMAN ATELIER

  • Why we love it: When cult makeup artist Gucci Westman partnered with Métier to design her “dream” travel case, she emphasized luxurious detailing—without compromising practicality. The Westman Atelier carryall is handmade in Italy from sustainably sourced Tuscan bouclé, which is not only handsome but water-resistant. Lined with double-faced, vintage-inspired fabric, the interior is water-resistant, too. The heat-sealed base easily wipes clean with a damp cloth, and the solid brass zipper has a silky smooth glide. Naturally, Westman designed the storage through the eye of a true makeup lover, adding six compartments, a spacious zippered pouch, and a main body that can hold skincare, perfume, supplements, and more.
  • Dimensions: 8.5 x 7.25 x 3.5 inches

Like choosing a hotel or Airbnb for your next getaway, your products’ temporary home should be thoughtfully considered, too. While a beautifully-designed case lends undeniable appeal to a hotel vanity or even a workspace, keep these practical considerations in mind as well:

  • Material: The best toiletry bags should be made of a durable material that can stand up to being overstuffed—and be easily wiped clean in the case of spills or smudges. For instance, Westman Atelier’s sumptuous train case is lined with double-faced performance fabric inspired by 1960s beach umbrellas, while Rains’s waterproof Wash Bag is crafted from durable, 100% polyester. If quick visibility is what you’re after, consider a clear case: Calpak’s see-through bag , made of polyurethane and PVC, is a roomy option that can hold everything from skincare to passports and sleep masks for easy access.
  • Size: The best toiletry bag for you will handily stow however many products you need on the go—whether that’s just the basics for an easy, everyday makeup routine, or brushes, bottles, and palettes that will leave full glam on hand. For the former, Dagne Dover’s Mila Toiletry Organizer has a compact, circular design that’s easy to tuck into luggage or use as a carry-on; it measures 5.5 x 5.5 x 5.5 inches. Meanwhile, Everlane’s cleverly collapsible case measures 9 x 4.5 x 4.5 inches when it’s folded; unfolded:, it expands to 11 x 9 x 6.5 inches. Keep height in mind, too: If you want to store bottles and liquids upright, or are packing longer brushes, consider an upright option like The Container Store’s Parraelle Traveller Bag , which is 7 inches high.
  • Portability : The best toiletry bags are also easy to tote around. While selecting the right bag for your jaunt, consider packing a bag that can be easily carried (or flown!) around while keeping products safely in place, such as July’s Vanity Cosmetic Case . If it’s not being stowed in a tote or suitcase, you’ll want it to have a practical carrying handle, such as the Béis The Cosmetics Case , or a roomy base to rest atop a carry-on.
