> 3 dayThe concept is great. When I first opened it, I thought it was to light, thin and the zippers too lightweight to be durable. But, Ive used it twice now for weekends and its been good so far. Again, the concept is great. The side pockets are a little small and the zippers still scare me. Also, due to the design, you have to sip it like a jacket to close the big section (i.e. it opens beyond the end of the zipper to become two sides, like a jacket, so you have to feed the one into the other to re-zip it). I havent used the garment feature yet, but again, the concept is good. It holds a fair amount of stuff, more than I first thought it would, which is nice. Id carry it on a plane, but I wouldnt jam in into a tight space. For the price, size and features, its ok as long as it holds up. Just realize that its pretty lightweight.

> 3 dayNot only is this bag good looking, its very well made with all metal zippers and heavy canvas. Even with a suit jacket, shirt and pants in the zippered outer garment section, there was still plenty of room in the interior of the bag. There are three zippered pockets, one on each end and one in the front of the bag. There is also a padded shoulder strap that can be attached to the metal rings on each end of the bag if needed. All of the claps, snaps and rings are metal, no cheap plastic here. There are a couple of things that could have been designed better to make this a 5-star winner: For one, there is no way to hang the open suit/dress bag without having the velcro top flap open. A slit in the center of the top flap for a hanger to poke through would have been nice. And although the description states there are elastic straps to hold your suit or dress in place, I found there were none. Aside from a couple of minor design flaws this bag is my new favorite!

> 3 dayThis bag is great for short trips for work or just a weekend get away. I do wish that the garment bag section was a little longer so things didnt get wrinkled at the bottom.

> 3 dayGot this for a cruise since I didnt want to take a regular garment bag and have to check it. It fit my husbands suit jacket and two dress shirts nicely. If youre a larger/taller person (my husband is 510, medium build), the garment bag may not be quite long or wide enough to fit garments without some slight tucking here and there. It wasnt long enough to put even a short dress in without tucking. It was fairly easy to zip up after the first time fumbling to figure out where to best grip the zippers/bag to get started and there are clips to keep the zippers in place once zipped. The interior bag (with garments in the outer area) was surprisingly roomy. I put in 3 pairs of shoes and stuffed the rest with packing cubes with clothing. The bag itself is a sturdy canvas-feel material and there is a small zippered pocket on each end. I checked this bag on our cruise ship and it arrived at our room in perfect condition. I definitely recommend this for anyone having to check a garment bag when travelling!

> 3 dayThis duffel is a neat concept that works pretty well in practice. Open the bag up all the way, hook a jacket or button-down shirt or dress hanger (or whatever garment you dont want folded) to the loop at the top, then fold the flaps in and over and when you zip the sides you cant see your jacket at all any more, and it is nestled between fabric layers waiting to be unzipped and hung up again at your destination. The interior area of the duffel is sizeable and will hold shirts, a shoe bag, undergarments, and a toiletry bag. This is a great solution to wanting a hanging garment bag to travel with you but not wanting to check bags (if flying) or obstruct your window view (if driving), If you cram it sideways into a compartment and stack things on top of it, yep, your jacket will be wrinkled. But if you are able to fill the inside of the bag enough to keep the jacket up against the interior walls, and you dont smash it, it transports pretty well! The zippers are a bright silver color, not white as they appear in the product photos. The only possible downside is that the zippers dont entirely close flush on the sides, but the little clip will keep them from coming undone. And of course you can just use it as a duffel bag, you dont have to roll anything up in the liner -- and you dont have to roll it up, if you have room to transport it longwise if you dont need a duffel bag. So it has double the usability, and also a tiny footprint when folded up for storage.

> 3 dayIt typically would be difficult for me to get excited about a garment bag, but this one is terrific. The idea of turning a garment bag into a duffel/gym bag is awesome. I realize other companies are doing this as well, but I never knew about it until receiving this bag; and I like it. I hate traveling with a suit, and I have a garment bag/suitcase that works fine, but it is fairly cumbersome. This product is a much better, more efficient, utilization of space. The quality of the bag, straps, connectors, etc is surprisingly good considering the price. It also looks very nice and seems a perfect size for carry-on (not too big, not too small). I doubt you could find a better one for the price, and right now there is a 5% coupon. I’m likely going to buy 2 more of these as Christmas gifts for my sons.

Greater than one weekThis is a great idea…garment bag that turns into a duffle-type bag. When opened flat as garment bag it measures 21x38. It held 2 of my husbands jackets (45L). I used wire hangers (the loop is quite small) but actually you don’t need the hangers because after you zip up the garment bag section, the additional clothes you put in as a bag holds the jackets in place. There are lots of pockets and a good amount of room. The zippers that form up the sides of the bag are a little finicky so zip them to form the bag first, then put in clothes. Folds up nice and flat for storage. It is an attractive material

> 3 dayI feel like I’m cheating the system here; a duffel bag AND a garment bag in one? Jokes aside. Why aren’t all of them designed like this. I like the idea and the product itself feels pretty durable. The material is nice and easy to clean. I’m not sure how the zippers will stay put and locked in place (or maybe they don’t need to be?) but for now it’s practical enough. I love that the color and style is simple yet chic, I don’t need flashy brand names and colorful stuff. I believe I can fit a whole week’s worth of clothing in here if needed. Overall, this is a must try! :)

> 3 dayThe best feature is being able to roll up/hang clothing, but still be able to utilize the rest of the bag for other carry-on essentials.

> 3 dayCame across this bag and thought to give it a try. And Im so glad I did. I do go to business travel and conferences for work, but when it comes time to formal wear, I always fret because my suit jacket, dress pants, and shirt are always a pain to pack in a luggage. Theres always going to be some folding which will kink up a few locations and no matter how I iron it, it sometimes just wont solve those issues. And that also means Id have to bring an iron with me because some hotels dont stock those in their regular suites. Back to the bag itself. I test fitted this bag with my go-to suit and it works wonders. The bag is just the correct size to completely encapsulate the suit and its easy enough to manage a wrap-around so the side zippers can zip-up. After one side gets done, I did have to finaggle the angle of approach a little bit for the other side. But the whole thing does zip up nicely. And shoes can be placed right dag inside the now duffle bag. Im loving it because the roll-around that this thing made actually lessens the chance for the suit to kink while inside the bag. There is no complete folding at all, so Im very satisfied and impressed with this bag. When my wife saw what I was playing with, she immediately says, thats my dress bag now. So there you go, a definite 5-star item.
