## Our verdict

### Reasons to buy

-   Absolutely waterproof and highly durable. Perfect for outdoor travels.
-   Can be carried in three different ways: Messenger bag, backpack, or duffel bag.
-   Comes with an Okoban global Tracker which increases your chance in locating your bag in case you lost it.
-   Opens like a suitcase which makes packing and unpacking easy.

### Things to consider

-   Bulky to use considering its 42L capacity.
-   Some external pockets would be desirable for your small things.

## What reviewers said

-   "This has been one of my best purchases and I want to thank Cabinzero for making such trendy yet formal, Urban Navy. Not only it is water-resistant, it is also RFID safe. All the best, Cabinzero!"
-   "Love everything about it, the size, color, materials. I could put lots of stuff into this bag for 4 days trip and still bring it up to the cabin. Totally cool!"

## Reviews from around the web

**Airplane Cabin\_Best Lightweight Cabin Luggage Review\_COVER Why You’ll Love The New CabinZero Urban 42L Cabin Sized Bag**

> Yes, it does. And this carry on bag can undoubtedly hold its own. With a 42 liter capacity, everything I need for my week-long hospital trip easily fits inside. But ultimately, this bag is sized perfectly for carry-on – you know, allowing you to avoid checking in your bag onboard. Saving you much-needed travel time – and easy access to all your gear on the plane.

> In a stylish black hue, the Urban bag will go with anything – I know some of you may think ‘who cares,’ but really every girl owns a little black dress, and now you can own a little black bag that you can take on your girls trip, boys vacay, family getaway or to the hospital like I did!
