Description of Kelty Wheelie Rolling Gear Bag - 3500 cu in:
Always end up with more stuff at the end of a weekend getaway than you started with? The Kelty Wheelie Rolling Gear Bag's expandable main compartment is the solution. Unzip the Wheelie bag's expansion zipper to increase this carry-on sized bag's capacity by 500 cubic inches, enough to handle that I love NY t-shirt for your cousin Eddie and a few other random souvenirs. If you tend to over-pack, the Wheelie Roller Bag's internal and external compression straps compress everything down to carry-on size, so you don't have to worry about checking luggage. Kelty even included a removable hanging toiletry kit in the outer zip pocket, and a clear mesh ID window on the outside. No matter how much you pack, the Wheelie Roller Bag will glide smoothly down the concourse, thanks to a burly retractable handle and inline skate wheels.
Bottom Line: Make room for souvenirs with the Kelty Wheelie Rolling Gear Bag.
I tend to like Kelty products, and this 'bag' is no exception. This is the perfect size for an overnighter or light weekend, and is small enough to work as a carry-on for larger planes (if it is not expanded). It is nice to be able to expand it for extra room, and the wheels and handle seem sturdy. It does have several zippered pockets, and also several handles. The daisy chain looks cool, but I'm really not sure what you'd use it for on a wheeled suitcase. It seems to be well-made, and the compression straps are occasionally useful.
This bag expands a lot if you need it to, but don't expect it to fit in an overhead bin when the bag is fully expanded. The handle is extra-long, so its not catching my heels like other bags. Overall it's very well made. All the zippers are YKK (from the jumbo compartment zippers to the small organizer insert) which usually means you're getting a quality bag.
