Our verdict

Reasons to buy

  • A Gluon® daypack (sold separately) can be attached to this bag. This is really convenient when you're not using the daypack (yet) or during airport transfers.
  • Highly durable. This can last a lifetime of travels with proper care.
  • Highly versatile as you can use it as a trolley bag, carry-on duffle bag, or backpack.
  • The harness system is truly comfortable to use even though this is more of a trolley bag than a backpack.

Things to consider

  • It can be a bit heavy to use, but this is considered "lightweight" for its size and functionality as it is also a trolley bag.
  • Has no sternum strap.
  • Expensive but that's because of the quality of the bag.

What reviewers said

  • "Bought two of these bags and the gluon backpacks for our trip away. Perfect bags for both car and plane travel. (We drove up and flew home). Fitted enough gear for life on a station (boots jeans etc) and travel (shorts, swimmers and towels, etc). Checked bags underneath on the trip home and both survived well. Easy to wheel through the airport with the gluon pack attached. Happy we purchased them!"
  • "I bought this product about a month ago and it's one of the best purchases I've ever made. Lightweight, comfortable, and very versatile."
  • "I wanted a suitcase that was light and easy to maneuver. The Hybrid Trolley was perfect. Lots of room for packing, secure straps for holding things in place, and just a great buy."
