Allpa 38L Roller Bag

Fantastic bag. Great, modern aesthetic. Everything (zippers, wheels, etc.) have a lux feel.

This bag is not your typical roller bag, it has a rugged build to it, larger then normal wheels for uneven surfaces or cobble stone, a soft weather resistant front with straps, and a rugged handle for an additional carrying bag. I travel a lot, from planes, to cars, to cruise ships to trains, all which require a bag that can be rolled, lifted, stuffed, and survive some abusive luggage handlers. I marry the Allpa 38L roller bag with the Allpa 28L back pack. I like to carry on as much as possible, and this bag allows me to pack up to 2-3 weeks of clothing without checking in a bag at the airport (Allpa 28L is my personal item I carry on too). The Allpa 38L has a clam shell opening, with 2 internal mesh zipper compartments. The main side is a full access that you can pack easily 2 weeks of clothing with no issues. I was even able to pack my cotopaxi 24L day bag flat in the main compartment and still have 2 weeks of clothing room. The other side is a 3/4 access which for its size allows more clothes or shoes or packable jacket or all. In total there are 2 zipper access compartments, one front 1/4 compartment for toiletry bag, or 3L travel bag, and the main clam shell compartment which I have explained. My travel needs I normally pack around 40-60L or stuff, depending on the season of my travel. I will normally have a hip bag (3L), a back pack 28-30L, and a roller bag (40-50L). All this I can carry on a plane, or negotiate steps, all types of obstacles like people in airports or on cruise ships. My mentality is is if cant carry it, I don't need it. The roller bag is about 4-5lbs unpacked, mainly because of it durability in construction, but its not the lightest bag. However, considering I have a travel pro light, the amount of abuse I can give the Allpa 38L is far more than the travel pro. Also the Allpa can pack more in the same like size travel pro. I will say the esthetic of the Allpa is more "rugged traveler" than sophisticated, but that is actually my esthetic. The over all construction is superb, YKK color coded zippers, and an outer material that will take the weather and abuse, with minor scratches.

Tough and durable (30 trips and counting).

Why did you pick this product vs others?: BEST SUITCASE ON THE PLANET.

Obviously used product in poor condition. Took forever to get here then was in bad shape. Smelled also.

Very nice, but the front pocket makes it difficult to zip the main compartment even if it isn’t even full. 4 wheels would be nice.

Took this bag to Colombia. Went through 6 airports and 6 uber rides. Got home after traveling for 2 weeks straight and still good as new. The front cover scratched up after but not a concern because its just normal wear from being thrown around. It was pouring rain when i was leaving and threw the bag in the car. When i got to the airport i just dropped the bag off and never checked it. When i got home after my trip, everything was still dry. So far so good

Awesome bag a liitle smaller than other carry on but overall has great capacity, strength and carry ability
