GoLite TraveLite 38 Litre Wheeled Carry-On

GoLite’s take on the perfect wheeled carry-on. Sized just right, easy to pack, easy to wheel and a cinch to stash in the overhead. More than a third lighter than comparable bags—just right for modern travel.

Materials:
Tier 1 Recycled 210 Denier Nylon Double Ripstop

Our Verdict

Not sure the lightness claim stands up to scrutiny, however its among the lightest in class. There are a number of carrying options, suitcase style, vertical case, backpack and dragalong on the wheels. I guess the latter is the one that will get used the most.

You essentially get four compartments of various sizes in which to cram your gear, its a good solid bag thats definitely fit for purpose.

GoLite has been honored with Backpacker Magazine's Editors’ Choice Award, for its extensive use of Tier 1 recycled fabrics.

Our newly developed Tier 1 recycled polyester and nylon materials test to the same high standards as their conventional, non-recycled alternatives.  We use them because of the massive reductions in energy use and resource consumption required to produce them vs. the virgin, petroleum-based alternatives.  More information can be found under ‘Performance Technology’ within ‘The Meaning of Lite’ section of the GoLite website.
