DESCRIPTION
This tough carry-on legal, convertible-hybrid, backpack-duffel style bag is the next great evolution in airline carry-on bags. Down-sized to fit travelers with smaller frames.
EXTERNAL LUGGAGE COMPRESSION STRAPS
The twin exterior cinch-down compression straps were thoughtfully added. Using these adjustable straps allows you to cinch down and collapse your belongings or lumpy, bulky items and hold 'em in place. Which is especially awesome if you plan on bringing home more than what you shipped out with.
Handy grab loops on each end help you to easily pull it out of overhead bins or drag it on or off vehicle roof racks. The padded bottom cover features our tough 1050 weight Ballistic CORDURA® Brand nylon fabric for extra protection and service life, and of course, the store-able, padded backpack straps make for comfortable hands-free shoulder carry.
THREE EXTRA LONG STORAGE COMPARTMENTS.
The Lil Hombre features a unique three long compartment system that is carry-on legal . There's the long main compartment in the middle with more than enough room for your clothes or other long belongings like scuba gear. This compartment features a "break-over" zipper across the top, a configuration that allows you to unzip the bag part-way down the sides thus giving you a more open access to the compartment.
The two raised pocket equally long side compartments give you the option of storing your dress shoes, running shoes or heels in these 19-inch long compartments. Tucked into the outside of each raised side compartments there are twin flat side panel zippered pockets for smaller flat.
