The one thing that steals all the joy of going on a trip is packing. When it’s a short trip, taking a large suitcase can be cumbersome, but to put everything in a backpack doesn’t leave much room for your stuff. There are numerous regulations for carry-ons too; we’ve all experienced having to hastily repack our bags in front of everyone while they are watching.
The Alchemy Equipment AEL008 Carry On combines only the best parts of carry-on suitcases and regular backpacks. While the name sounds like it was inspired from passenger aircrafts, the design has taken more considered approach to travel. From the outside it looks more like a rugged and functional backpack that you’d feel comfortable carrying in the city, but the inside is filled with niches and pockets that will make any traveler feel well organized. You can even completely open the inner compartment, much like any normal suitcase, making packing and unpacking a breeze. There’s a separate compartment for a 15” laptop, while there are pockets on the outside for magazines or books so you don’t have to search through the bag like you’re excavating a cave. The inner compartments are waterproof, just in case there’s a mishap with liquid items like shampoo or toothpaste. The well-padded shoulder strap can be stored in the base of the bag, so it doesn’t get caught on anything in a crowded aircraft.
So for you’re next short trip, why not try out the Alchemy Equipment AEL008 Carry On in favor of those wheeled carry-ons.
