All of that said, let’s take a look at the reasons why you might want to choose this bag for your next trip. Materials & Aesthetic polyester with phthalate-free PVC coating (body), additional layer of 840D recycled ballistics nylon with a non-PFC DWR finish (bottom) Oversized 70 mm dual spinner wheels with aluminum reinforcement provide impressive rolling performance Think twice if…you don’t like to be organised?! Honestly can’t think of a reason to not like this bag! Like on its other products, Osprey splashes its name around this bag. Look for a 2.5-inch logo in the top center of the bag’s front. The Osprey name is also on the straps and plastic zipper pulls. Another logo without the name is on the bag’s rear, and Transporter is printed in all caps at the bottom of the front of the bag. You never know when someone walking past will want to know what bag you’re sporting and be too shy to ask. A fabric tab at the rear says Global Carry-On. Osprey Transporter Global Carry-On | Large YKK #10 zippers pull everything together.

On the face of it, the Transporter Carry-On 44 looks pretty much exactly the same as the first Transporter model but if you look close enough you will see the differences. Other than when I travel to the Caribbean, I’m hand luggage only so having the right bag is key. An ultra tough 400D Nylon with a double-coating of TPU is used throughout the bag; this fabric is more than tough enough to deal with careless luggage handlers, light rain showers and the general abuse that travelling has on your kit.Let’s look around the outside of the bag. External Components Left: Kristyne Defever, Height: 5’5” (165 cm), Torso: 17” (43 cm) | Right: Eric Hergenreder, Height: 6’0″ (183 cm), Torso: 18.5” (47 cm) So like I said, I thought this too. Until I discovered the waist strap, in addition to the chest strap, which make the world of difference! Globally accepted carry-on size: 21.5 x 14 x 9 in. / 55 x 35 x 23 cm. (Meets most airline requirements.) The Rolling Transporter is much more similar to the Transporter Duffel than it is to the Carry-On. It’s pretty much the Duffel on wheels, with the same large compartment and compression straps. The wheels are super useful though for making it even easier to get around.
