Why We Made This
Built for travelers who prefer to keep their laptop and essentials in their carry-on—not their tote or backpack. The tone-on-tone hardshell front pocket fits up to a 16" laptop, a pullover, and in-flight must-haves. It adds accessible storage while slightly reducing space in the main compartment.
Includes a fast-charging removable battery (USB-C + A), Free-Flex zipper that stretches up to an inch, impact-resistant virgin polycarbonate shell, tamper-proof double-coil zippers, whisper-quiet spinner wheels, TSA-approved lock, and antimicrobial interior lining.

”I love the design of this bag—it feels like a reliable, sleek rolling bag, with design you’ll never get tired of.”
We source our polycarbonate from Germany. It's lightly textured to minimize scratches, supremely durable and remarkably lightweight. Baggage handlers and airline weight limits have met their match.
Gives you quick access to your laptop, hoodie, or passport via a cleverly designed front pocket with a tone-on- tone, hard-shell exterior designed to protect your precious belongings (take that, unexpected gate-checks).
All suitcases have an anti-microbial lining infused with natural silver fibers to neutralize odor-causing bacteria and prevent germ growth.
The integrated, airline-compliant charger is removable with one click. The charger has blazing-fast USB C and USB A ports with PD technology allowing you to charge your phone to half-way in under 30 minutes.
Our 360° spinner wheels are 15% quieter than standard polyurethane options used by mass market brands. They're meant to be rolled—not heard.

Reviews from fellow travelers
- SGSusan G.Verified BuyerReviewingNew Expandable Carry-On Max - Front PocketI recommend this productProduct Standouts Durable, Good Size, Lightweight, Thoughtful DesignRated 5 out of 5 starsYesterdayGood job
As an ardent traveler going to remote places where weight in tiny planes is an issue, this is a welcome suitcase to place my camera, etc. The front compartment for my tablet takes the weight out of my backpack and adds a bonus. The outer shell looks good when going to "established" places. The extra bags and pouches are a plus.
I've never seen it, but could the wheels be partially incorporated into the shell and providing small interior pockets ?
This bag is much better than my husband's Away bag
- KKatirVerified BuyerReviewingNew Expandable Carry-On Max - Front PocketI do not recommend this productRated 1 out of 5 stars5 days agoWrong color
Wrong color received. For a $400 piece of luggage. Extremely disappointed since I need it for a trip tomorrow. Ordered the yellow, received the black.
ASArlo Skye3 hours agoHi Katie, we’re sorry for the mix-up. We overnighted the correct carry-on at our expense, including expedited shipping, ahead of your trip. We hope you have a great trip.
- ABAegina B.Verified BuyerReviewingOriginal Carry-On Max — Front PocketI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars1 month agoStylish performance
Performed perfectly for our recent trip to Portugal -- light and easy to handle, easy to spot on a carousel. It also fits perfectly inside the larger, checked bag for storage.

This lightweight carry-on has several 'spots' to place last minute items and it truly will fit several days of clothing, with extra space when packed thoughtfully.

First new luggage in 29 years and I wanted to try softsides.The color is beautiful and the perfect size to carry my laptop, cords, paper & pens in the front compartment and plenty of room for my shoes and clothing inside main area.The expansion is wonderful! I love the zippered bags inside where I can place my small clothing items. Very well made and sturdy and consists of new Polycarbonate materials and so lightweight for me to roll on these fabulous wheels! I am super picky after waiting years to buy new luggage and I would recommend Arlo Skye to everyone!
