Into the details:

Custom-designed telescopic handle
Instead of choosing an off-the-shelf option, we designed our own: in a smooth shape that feels delightful in-hand, with an ergonomic underside button and 3 lockable heights, Plus, it retracts into a zipped section for storage.

Soft shell made with nylon ripstop
This is a true soft-sided case (it is not a fabric-wrapped hard-shell), which means it’s flexible, compressible and less susceptible to dints and scratches. Its compressibility lets it fit into tight spots like the packed overhead compartment or your wardrobe for storage.

External pocket
Everything’s exactly where you left it in this organizer section. Slip pockets give you easy access to your passport, kindle or small tablet, and a pen through the airport, while an integrated key clip keeps your keys in one spot.

Rest bar
This bar helps the case stand solidly on its own, but also acts as a lower grab handle.

Wheels
Inspired by in-line skates, these wheels are made with a lot of rubber and a large circumference, with smooth-running bearings. They take on less-than-even surfaces with confidence and agility.

Grab handles
There are near-constant grab-and-go moments while traveling, and these handles have been tested at almost twice the usual carry-on weight allowance, so we know they’ll go the distance. 

Protective bumper
The base panel is extra strong, thanks to an abrasion-resistant coating on both sides of super-thick recycled nylon. So when your case hits the curb on that weird angle, it’s protected.

Internal organization
The in-built packing cells and large drop-in section make expert packing easy. And, you’ll always be able to find the zips of the main section – because they sit at opposing ends when zipped up.

Laptop storage
Access your laptop without rummaging, since the flat-item section is right there at the center of the case. Just make sure your device is still protected in a sleeve or cover.

YKK zipper
We intentionally left the main zipper uncoated, so that if you need to check your luggage, it can withstand the extreme temperatures under a plane without risk of deterioration. So your case will last longer, no matter the environment.

The Bellroy difference:

Why a tipper? A tipper – which tips onto 2 wheels – gives you more active control in tight spots or on bumpier terrain, since you're pulling rather than just guiding it (like you would a spinner). These wheels are rubber-rich with a large circumference, enhancing agility and impact resistance.

Tested to last 10 years: Our testing approach is to find all of the stress points and simulate years’ worth of wear on those spots. To ensure they're adequately reinforced, and robust enough for lots of travel to come.

Leaders of the pack: Soft goods are our speciality, and we have incorporated our much-loved approach to access and organization here, pairing a large drop-in zone with in-built packing cells for smaller items.

Easy Fix: We’ve developed Fix-it Kits to replace key parts – the wheels and telescopic handle – in less than 10 minutes. To keep you and your case traveling for years on end.
