Smooth rolling delight
on December 27, 2025
Posted by: nadiasvertex
from Tuxedo Park, NY
We bought this last month, and my wife immediately took it on a trip to visit her mother. The bag was a delight to use, with the exception that the zipper wouldn't stay closed. We warrantied it and immediately got a new one.
We love the internal space and the smooth rolling. It's hard to explain how nice it is for the bag to just move with you instead of constantly freaking out and rolling all over the place. It's almost like it's on autopilot. Traveling is hectic enough these days without the added hassles of bad luggage.
We also love all the handles. Makes it so much easier to get off a carousel or in and out of a trunk without having to find a place you can grab.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fun travel bag!
on December 24, 2025
Posted by: CB
Bought this roller bag to be my forever suitcase. Used it on a short trip recently. Love how roomy it feels inside and all the pockets for stashing stuff. And love how it rolls! On a smooth surface, you only need one finger to push it along. Downside would be the weight of the bag empty. Its a bit heavy for me, once packed. But if feels luxurous and sturdy at the same time. One suggestion would be to add a nicer luggage tag. I bought a colorful bird tag.

Nearly perfect bag
on December 21, 2025

I bought all three colors (one for each of us in the family) during the initial campaign. I love, love the roller bag! It's so easy to pack, the extra space is a game changer. This summer I used the bag for several trips, car and train. Last week was its first debut at the airport where I discovered the wheels are almost too good, as the bag sometimes sped away from me. Fortunately I figured out how to use that to my advantage. Need two hands to zip up a jacket in the airport? No problem, keep walking and just give the bag a firm push. It rolls along next to me as I zip my coat.
There is one small issue that nearly caused an international incident at the Spanish - Gibraltar border ;-). I had put the top handle of my everyday backpack (V1 20L tan) over the roller handle so it would be upright. At the border I could not separate the bags because of tiny corners on the roller handle were just big enough to keep the backpack locked on. Fortunately after watching me struggle with it for several minutes, a friendly Spanish agent helped me wrestle it off. My husband has a V1 20L gray bag and his leather handle fits perfectly so he had zipped through the border wondering what happened to me.

Useless if you plan to travel by plane
on December 12, 2025
Posted by: Tati
I was seduced by all the features presented in the campaign and I found them great. But I was shocked by the weight when received it. It’s almost 4 kg + 1kg insert for photography equipment. The majority of airlines only allow 8kg, so, you ve got only 3kg left to put your camera, lenses, laptop, etc etc. Impossible! It makes it totally useless for traveling. It looks good though if you don’t count on it for traveling by plane. Except the poor quality noise when you open it… I’m so much disappointed with this expensive purchase.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Heavy, durable, smooth, expensive

Travel through Taipei and Taitung (east coast of Taiwan) via Plane, Trains, Automobile for 3 weeks.
1. Going through the airports was easy, wheels are smooth, and EVA Air had no issue with the size. 2. Suggestion: get a vacuum pack that compresses your clothes. To comply with carry-on size limitations, there's not a lot of room within its relatively rigid frame. However, the compressed luggage is more dense, so when added to the heaviness of this unit, lifting a fully packed one up onto the overhead bin can be a challenge. 3. The wheels survived all kinds of terrains, from smooth pavements to rough and barely paved cobbled stones, some dirt paths. The water proofing is superb as it rained heavily 2 weeks out of 3 when we were there. 4. Negative: The smaller PD camera cubes cannot clip on the inside. The loops inside the Carry-On is too low and are meant only for the XL camera cube.

Game changing roller
on December 9, 2025

from Charlotte, NC
The Roller Pro serves triple duty for me as a camera case, suitcase and a hybrid of both. The case rolls with ease and wheels are positioned such that the bag is not on the verge of tipping over as other cases I’ve owned. The extending handle, interior tie downs and hidden apple airtag compartment some of my favorite features.

Best Roller Ever

I bought this as part of the Kickstarter campaign and took it on a month long trip to Central Asia. The bag holds a lot and easy to use with great features. It rolled effortlessly on all terrain.
The outside zipper is fantastic for storing your laptop and other accessories that you need in flight.
