Built to Last

With an impact and scratch-resistant hard shell made from 100% pure polycarbonate, The Optimus is as durable as it gets while still being ultra-lightweight. Plus, all sizes come with the added protection of reinforced corner guards. Take that, baggage handlers!

Go the Distance

No matter how far, fast or long you’re traveling with your Optimus, our 360-degree Hinomoto wheels will take you there effortlessly. Widely regarded as the best in the industry – these wheels simply don't exist on luggage under $250. Except for ours.

Stay in Charge

Smart luggage that won’t break airline or airport security rules? The Optimus Carry-on has you covered with a built-in USB port located right next to the top handle. Simply insert your own removable battery pack into the designated interior pocket and connect it to the USB cord that comes with the suitcase. Now you can stay virtually connected wherever your travels take you.

Protect What’s Yours

All Optimus bags come with a secure TSA-approved lock system for added security and peace of mind during your travels. Because getting into your luggage should always be easy for you (and the TSA) and hard for everyone else.

Packed with Potential

Simple, but effective interior organization system takes the guesswork out figuring what goes where. On top: three zippered compartments of varying sizes to accommodate different packing needs. On bottom: hidden zippered compartment featuring a removable waterproof laundry bag to separate clean clothes from dirty. Once you’ve loaded in your belongings, use the adjustable compression pad to keep everything secure and wrinkle-free.

(1) Set the dial to 0-0-0 (2) Using a pen or pointed object, push in the small circular button found next to the dials (3) Push the larger circular button in the direction of the dials (4) Set your combination by turning the dials to your chosen personal 3-digit code (5) Release the larger circular button and let the smaller circular button spring back; now you have finished setting your personal combination! Write your code down and keep in a safe place for future reference. We always recommend sending it in an email to yourself or keeping in a note on your phone.
How do I charge devices with The Carry-on?

Once you have your own battery pack, open your carry-on and locate the pocket found in the top of the front panel. From there, plug the USB cord that comes with the suitcase into your battery pack, then place the battery pack into the pocket and seal it closed. Next, close your luggage and bring it upright. On the same panel as your lock, you’ll notice a small black rubber cover. Lift the cover; now you can plug in any electronic device that is powered by a USB cord into your luggage without being restricted to a wall outlet.
