Best Rolling Roller Bag!

The design of this bag is a dream come true with the clam shell opening. The wheels are outstanding making traversing airports very easy, though one must be mindful the bag may roll away from you because the rollers are too good! The reason I’m giving it a 4* is 1) there’s not a 4.5 option, 2) it’s on the smaller side so packing for a week or longer trip can be challenging 3) the expanding option needs work: you can unzip to expand the space but the space collapses so it’s awkward to have to pull up on the bag to get it expanded and bag closed when using the expansion option for longer trips. Despite these small setbacks, it remains my go to bag for shorter trips. I would love to see a 23” carry on option for those longer domestic trips.

Wekk Designed & Functional

Roller Pro is a thoughtful, well-designed travel bag with practical touches that stand out. The roller system performs smoothly and handles well through airports and city streets. One thing I would love to see in a future version is wheel brakes or a locking mechanism—especially useful on public transit or uneven surfaces where the bag can slide around unexpectedly. The flexibility in packing is excellent, making it easy to adapt for different types of trips or photography gear setups. The magnetic pockets and organizational features are thought out and feel intentional rather than gimmicky. Overall, Peak Design paid attention to usability, materials, and travel workflow.

One Missing Feature

Have been using the case, and it suits almost all my needs. EXCEPT ONE: an outside stretch pocket for a water bottle is really missing. I would also settle for a clic-on solution, but carrying a water bottle in my hands while walking across an airport in the south really sucks

Unparalleled Quality

I travel regularly for work. Bought a nice hard shell carryon and it only lasted 1.5 years before the zipper broke and they couldn’t repair. After that broke I bought be Peak Roller Pro carryon and love this thing. The clamshell fits so much more that typical bags. The attention to quality is evident in every detail and it looks great too. Love this thing and love the confidence in the warranty too!

Expensive, But Incredible

I spent days trying to convince myself not to get this bag. I was looking for a bag that had good volume, was global carry on compatible, and would likely last me for years. I could not find anything that compared to this bag. I bought one and promptly had to buy another one for my spouse. The bag is incredible! When it rolls it’s smooth as butter. The rails are so thin however it doesn’t eliminate intrusion inside. I like the clamshell like opening with such a small footprint. The verticals storage slots are really efficient for storage of small items that may get tangled or lost. The laptop storage slot is not as strong as I’d like but will easily store the laptop if I’m gentle with the bag. Other companies have similar features but in my research and now having this bag I feel like PD does it better! Expensive but I really love having this bag.

Poor Design Choices

I Kickstarted this product, so I was rooting for it. Let me start with the good news: the wheels roll. Now the bad news. After two uses, one of the zippers failed near the hinge. You can actually see the zipper pulling off the track at the turn. That's a design flaw. By the third trip, I was packing backup straps just in case the second zipper gave out too. The laptop compartment eats up 7cm of depth. Most laptops are less than 1cm thick. That's a massive waste of space in a carry on, and it really should be called out in the specs so buyers know what they're giving up. Two stars instead of one because it does technically hold your stuff. Until the zippers fail.

So Smooth.

I've done a couple trips with this bag and just love it. That it opens sideways vs the standard is genius. So much easier to quickly grab something on the go, and easier to pack as well. The wheels are amazing, almost too good as the bag will start to roll at the slightest degree of downhill. Not a complaint though, but watch out, it will start to travel by itself! Super happy and can't wait to put endless miles on it.

Excellent Roller

Love this bag. Wheels are so smooth. Handle is sturdy. Pockets are great. Fits a lot of gear inside.

The Roller Bag Is Amazing.

Got this suitcase as a gift as I love the brand. Absolutely amazing organization, style, and functionality out of this small case. I appreciate the overall design especially the carbon fiber elements. I use the bag for most all of my ski trips and have never had any issues with it. Amazingly made. Would reccomend.

Regrets, But I Really Wanted To Love It.

Rather disappointed with this bag. Bought it on the promise that it fits international baggage allowances, spoiler, it doesn't. Particularly Korean airlines and Asiana. More than once I have been that person who had to rotate their bag such that it takes up a lot of linear room in the overhead. It has gotten checked more often than it has ridden in the cabin. Definitely not fitting in the Ryanair sizer (so prepare to check it). Does work for British Airways and Virgin, if we are being fair. Not that I care about this part, but it does seem to scuff rather easily. I think it is character, but some people will care. Rolls really nicely on carpet and smooth surfaces, not so great on the pavements of England or anywhere that peagravel is present. At home, super smooth. Around the airport, super smooth. To the taxi, iffy. On the pavements walking to your hotel, carry it. Ultimately this bag gets used for my train trips and car journeys. It is a shame that it does not work for my flights as I do like the drawbridge style. As others have mentioned though, the laptop sleeve is rather silly, for multiple reasons the least of which being putting lithium batteries (like the one in a laptop) in the overhead is forbidden and some airlines do check.

Best Roller I Owned So Far

The Roller Pro is an awesome piece of travel gear. Nicely designed, with a lot of helpful details. Worked very well on my last 2 trips. Looking forward to see it in combination with the new upcoming 20L Backpacks as well for larger trips with my Travel Backpack 45L. The only downside is the weight... If PD could have it done with a bit less of weight I would rate it 6 stars.

I'd Marry This Luggage If I Could

I know there are Peak Design fanboys out there. You can spot them in the wild. They have every single accessory. I never thought I would be one of them, but I am officially converted. This luggage is one of the most thoughtful pieces of transport that I own. The thing that stuns me the most is how quiet it is. I've had a lot of luggage from high-end brands to cheap bargain-bin quality, and this one smokes all of them. Huge fan of the attention to detail. I'm not a photographer, but I'm working in tech and traveling quite a bit over the last year. This bag has held up. It has earned my review, and I couldn't be happier with it. I fully intend to gift one to my wife for Christmas because she is often complaining about the telescoping handles in her bag.

Exceeding Expectations

I’m halfway through an extended European trip…so far the roller has been a star on planes, trains, automobiles and challenging cobblestone medieval streets. Highly efficient, high functioning, high capacity. This product is living up to my high hopes for the PD product.

The Best Travel Bags

I’ve had the Roller Pro since it was released. I’ve flown with it over a dozen times including internationally. I usually check it and carry on my PD Travel Backpack. The Roller Pro holds up to the abuse of baggage handlers, the fabric is tougher than any hard sided luggage big or small. Any unfortunate scuff that appears is easily wiped off. The wheels roll unbelievably smooth, the Roller Pro feels like it’s floating. If you want bags or luggage that doesn’t suck, then buy Peak Design bags. I’ve been traveling with them since 2018.

Killer Bag And I Don’t Feel Like A Dork Using It.

Upgraded to this bag after decades with a Lowepro roller bag. Been doing a lot of travel jobs recently and so far I’m loving it. It took a minute to reorganize things but I have it dialed in now and I’m stoked. If I could change anything, I wish there were multiple points where the handle could stop rather than always having to fully extend it. I have a Rimowa suitcase and that handle stops anywhere you want and I really love that feature. That’s just me though… besides missing that little feature, the bag is a 10/10
