Know before you buy
Yes, the Nomatic Carry-On Classic is built to TSA-approved dimensions of 22" x 14" x 9", specifically designed to fit into the smaller overhead bins found on most commercial aircraft.
The internal system uses a dedicated folding panel and magnetic straps to physically compress your clothing. This provides more uniform pressure than traditional cubes, helping you maximize the 30-liter capacity while keeping items securely in place.
While designed primarily as a carry-on, the shell is constructed from high-impact polycarbonate. It is built to be virtually indestructible, so it will easily handle the occasional gate-check if overhead space is full.
The suitcase features high-performance Hinomoto 360° wheels, which are known for their durability and silent operation. While they are built for long-term use, they are modular and can be serviced if necessary.
Yes, the interior is equipped with multiple mesh pockets specifically designed for accessory organization. These allow you to separate smaller items from your main clothing compartment for easier access.
The Nomatic Carry-On Classic weighs 7.5 pounds (3.4 kg). This weight reflects its durable construction and integrated compression hardware.
