The KISS Principle
By Alan - North Carolina   February 18, 2010

Remember the KISS principle? --Keep It Simple Stupid!! Thankfully this bag follows that line of thinking!! The only improvement I can think of is the addition of clip holders so I person could add a carry on strap if they wanted to. Otherwise, it's simplicity at its best.

Collapsibility of Duffel, But the Shape of A Suitcase
By Anonymous - San Francisco   July 6, 2009

Think "duffel but shaped like a suitcase, with a wrap-around zipper" and you'll have a clear idea what this minimalist carry-on is all about. ....To keep weight and price down, there isn't a shoulder strap or even shoulder strap attachment points for an accessory shoulder strap. No problem, the snap-together handle with wrap is really comfortable, unless you stuff it with bowling balls. ....NO extra pockets or slots. Just a good shape for stowing overhead or underseat; a sizeable interior; and minimal weight. Ideal for the canny minimalist or ultralight traveler. Also ideal for folding compactly and stowing in another bag, to bring back souvenirs. ....A nice gift as "starter luggage" for a niece or nephew who might otherwise make their funky bookpack or backpack serve double-duty as their luggage. ....Good "trunk bag" or "go bag" for cars, boats, planes - stuff it with warm clothing, sleeping bags (choose the right size bag!). ....In the "mesh" (the 3 "edge" panels on the zipper line are mesh) version, makes a good gear bag. ....Classic RedOxx quality. No corners were cut in materials or workmanship! Astounding value! ....Great for vegans, no leather used at all.

Less is Perfect, When Perfectly Made!
By Michael W. - Oakland CA   July 1, 2009

This is a great bag, a throwback to minimalist (by modern standards) "soft-sided luggage" from the 70's and 80's.//This is basically a small fabric suitcase with a high quality YKK self-locking zipper (won't open on its own) that runs around 3 sides of the bag for easy packing, since the top flops back out of the way. //The fabric is the same top quality Cordura nylon canvas used in other RedOxx bags, albeit currently available in black only (I'm fine with that!). //The webbing handles run all the way down and across the bottom of the bag - they aren't going to be pulling loose from the bag any day soon. //The handle wrap uses snaps not Velcro to close, so there is no Velcro to snag on my clothing, pick up lint, or wear out. //There is no shoulder strap or even attachment points for an optional shoulder wrap - I applaud RedOxx for taking this bold step in the direction of minimalism, since this means the bag is that much lighter, that much more compact if I need to stow it in another bag. I'd rather carry this bag by hand (what a retro concept!) than have to deal with the extra weight and nuisance (always getting caught on something!) of a strap.//The rectangular "suitcase" (as opposed to "duffel") shape is optimal for packing and stowing. Plus it looks like luggage which is better for my travel..//My Asian flights put a 15 pound limit on my carryon luggage, and I've exceeded that 3 times in the past. This bag should help me stay within weight limits. First, the bag itself doesn't weigh too much; second, while it provides a generous 1,936 cubic inches of packing space, that is still much less than RedOxx's "one bags," the AirBoss and SkyTrain. I intend to pack only my clothing essentials and toilet kit (except for TSA liquids) here. No laptop, nothing "heavy." (That stuff goes in the Gator, which slips by without getting weighed, as my "personal item".)//The naked main (and only) compartment looks daunting at first - until I realized this isn't the 70's or 80's, when soft-sided luggage got ditched because I didn't know how to pack it. Hey, nowadays there are packing cubes galore to choose from (I use Rick Steves which are more generously sized than many others - a knockoff is sold at Target). Or I can bundle wrap. Personally I like cubes, they keep things from shifting and I can live out of the cubes without unpacking at my destination. For smaller items I used silnylon (ultralight) camping ditty bags, although Ziplocs work too.//This is NOT a carryon that will provide you with shoe pockets, slots, or features. Just maximum rectangular space, minimal weight. If you could travel using only a large shopping bag or tote, this is the bag for you - it will last a lot longer and look a lot better. If you need personal organizer features, think AirBoss or Skytrain or Adventure Duffel (I have my eye on the PR5).

Back to Basics
By Nic - Seattle   May 28, 2009

This bag makes carry-on-only air travel easy. It's light, meets carry on size limits, and fits easily into overhead bins. The build quality is excellent - heavy duty zipper and handles that can easily support as much weight as you'll be able to carry. If you're looking for a simple, durable duffel, this is an excellent value.

Eye opener
By John Hodges - Texas   January 17, 2009

I was slightly hesitant to actually purchase the bag because of the lack of a shoulder strap and because the old aviator bags we used on jumps were so awkward. However, it had every thing I was looking for in a weekend travel bag, and the price was just too good not to buy. Once I got it, I realized why I'd always wanted a shoulder strap for a bag, and that's because most bags aren't the right size/shape to carry comfortably by hand. This one is! Now I think a shoulder strap is a cheap way to overcome poor bag design. This is one great weekend bag, and even my wife wants me to buy her one. Thanks guys.

Great, simple bag
By Peter Bansen -   February 17, 2007

This is a terrific, simple bag and a great deal. Just the right size for a couple of days worth of casual clothes and a shaving kit - much lighter in weight than a "roll aboard" when you don't need one.
