The carry-on suitcase: ideal for short trips 

If you're going on a city weekend, there's nothing better than the Carry-on suitcase. This small hard luggage is perfectly sized to carry the essentials of your belongings.

It fits easily in the trunk of a car as well as in the compartments of an airplane. With it, getting around is easy. Equipped with at least two wheels and a telescopic handle, it can be easily driven on the station platforms and in the long corridors of the hotel.

Pruning

You're only going away for two days, but you need a minimum of comfort! And this comfort includes clothes and hygiene items that take up a lot of space in your luggage.

Don't worry, the size of the carry-on suitcase has been designed to meet the practical requirements of transport companies as well as your personal needs.

The dimensions of the cabin baggage vary between 55 cm x 40 cm x 20 cm and 55 cm x 35 cm x 25 cm. Rigid, the small suitcase allows you to keep all your contents in shape. The latter is then protected and safe.

Light travel with the trolley device

With two or four wheels, the carry-on suitcase can be worn by your side with minimal effort. This trolley-equipped luggage is constantly evolving to provide maximum comfort to the traveller.

The device includes a retractable handle (sometimes multi-position) and sturdy wheels ready to walk any path you take. Thanks to this device, the suitcase is very manoeuvrable. It's a real pleasure for serene travels.

Adopt a Kipling suitcase!

Sleek and lightweight, the Kipling carry-on suitcase is the perfect luggage for weekend getaways. With her, there are no surprises.

It offers everything you'd expect from a small suitcase:

• It requires the ideal dimensions for travel in any means of transport;
• It has a sufficiently spacious space to carry some outfits and other toiletries;
• It is ultra-manoeuvrable thanks to its trolley device and its four 360° rotation wheels;
• It weighs a little (empty!), so you can even take your big book with you on a trip that you probably won't take the time to read;
• It's too stylish and fits your look perfectly.

If, on the other hand, you play it on an adventure weekend, the Travel Backpack seems much more appropriate. Flexible, it adapts more to your travels as an extreme explorer. Sometimes suspended on your shoulders, sometimes towed, it becomes a chameleon to accompany each of your expeditions.
