Solid pick
"Bought it thanks to the solid reviews and a sweet discount. Haven’t used it yet. It’s 85L, so I’m still unsure if the bulkier stuff will squeeze in. But it’s Kathmandu — quality is a given. Time will tell"

Stunning lightweight check-in luggage
"Bought it last week and it’s such a worthy purchase: amazingly light, durable and flexible. Used in travel journey and it’s survived rain & rough-wear. Wheels went through all kinds of surfaces smooth as silk. At 85L it can pack a lot! Love the stunning blue colour. It’ll be good in future gens to make handle even tougher like July suitcases though"
Love it
"What a fabulous bag it’s light weight nice and bright very easy to wheel."
