Saves 6 lbs. of ocean-bound plastic

Why We Made It

After years of living on the road, our Founder Adrian Solgaard, realized that staying organized on-the-go was impossible—so he designed a one-of-a-kind suitcase to change that.

The Carry-On Closet has a uniquely engineered, closet system to keep you organized anywhere—complete with five compressible shelves to help you save space.

The Carry-On Closet was recognized by TIME Magazine as the Best Travel Invention of the year.

Features
  • Patented Five-Shelf Shelving System To Keep You Organized
  • Easily Accessible USB Charging Port For On-The-Go Power
  • Frictionless Wheels That Barely Make a Sound
  • TSA Approved Three-Digit Lock
  • Unbreakable Polycarbonate Shell And Aluminum Frame
  • Ergonomic Handle For Maximum Comfort and Control
  • Cleans up 6 lbs of ocean-bound plastic from coastal communities.
  • Interior Shore-Tex® lining, made from 100% recycled plastic
Tall FlowCloset™

To use the Tall FlowCloset™ system, pack with the shelf fully extended

  1. Open the suitcase door 90 degrees. Clip together both hanging latches to keep suitcase from extending further than 90 degrees.
  2. Lift the shelf up and hang from the suitcase handle.
  3. Pack each shelf to 60-70% full.
  4. To close, lower the shelf into the suitcase, compress into place, and close the suitcase. Use the compression straps if you're packing in a lot of bulky items.

When you arrive at your destination, simply reverse these steps to unpack!

I have not traveled with it yet. But my first impression is that I’m going to LOVE IT. Compact yet full of storage. Can’t wait to use it on my business trip in a couple weeks
