    Weekend bags are spacious overnight bags. For short trips, where the suitcase would be too big or too bulky, weekend bags are a practical alternative. However, these compact travel bags are not only suitable for weekend trips, but also as carry-on luggage on the plane or as additional luggage. Every carry on weekender bag must not exceed certain dimensions. The standard measurements are 55 x 40 x 20 cm. Smaller models can also be used for leisure activities, for example as sports bags. Weekend bags come in a wide range of designs. Sporty versions are kept in an elongated format, typical for a so called a duffle bag. Characteristic are synthetic materials like nylon or polyester as well as side pockets. Weekend bags in a semicircle shape also have a dynamic appearance. They are available in both synthetic materials and leather. Rectangular leather models with rounded corners are among the classic designs. They not only look particularly elegant, but also have a particularly durable quality. However, a leather weekend bag is usually heavier than corresponding models made of synthetic materials. Variants made of synthetic leather impress with a similar look and lighter weight, but they are less robust. Weekend bags made of synthetic fabrics are not only hard-wearing and light, but usually also water-repellent and can be compressed if necessary. Furthermore, tarpaulin, cotton and canvas are used as materials for weekenders. Models made of material mixes complete the wide assortment: the combination of nylon and leather trimmings plus leather handles is meanwhile seen as classic. More unusual are weekend bags with a solid polycarbonate back: they are particularly sturdy. A carry on weekender bag with reinforced back is therefore a good choice for frequent travellers. Regardless of the material, most weekend bags offer a volume of 25 to 55 litres.

    Practical features

    Standard features of weekend bags include two carrying handles and a removable shoulder strap. Usually the handles are so large that you can carry the bag over your shoulder. But it is more comfortable with a shoulder strap. Whether a leather weekend bag or a nylon weekend bag, most models have an adjustable shoulder strap with soft padding. The strap is also kept extra wide to ensure a comfortable fit even when the contents are heavy. Some weekend bags are equipped with additional backpack straps, so you can carry them on your back if you want it. Typical features are a (lockable) two-way zipper and feet or patches. The zipper either runs from side to side (often for a leather weekender) or is kept in a U-shape i.e. as a ¾ version (the standard case for models made of synthetic materials). Many large weekend bags feature a reinforced bottom and handles. Speaking of bag bottom: some variants have a separate area for shoes. A weekend bag with shoe compartment normally offers space for up to three pairs of shoes. The practical features of the popular weekend travel bag also include a front pocket for travel documents etc., a laundry section and an address label or tag. Inside, there are pockets and zipper compartments for more organization. Some weekend bags have a stretch pleat to increase volume. Weekenders with roll top or folding closure also provide flexible volume adjustment. The classic nylon weekend bag also offers more space if needed. As usual, the zipper of these models consists of a body part where it starts and a stopper where it ends. These two parts are fixed on the sides by snap fasteners or buckles. When they are released, the bag immediately provides more space for your things. A weekend bag with shoe compartment is also flexible: the extra section can be used for a totally different purpose.

    Business travellers make special demands on their luggage. Business overnight bags feature a padded laptop compartment and a trolley strap for attaching to the telescopic handle of a larger suitcase. Important: despite the padded gadget pocket, you should not pack your weekend bag too full, so that the pressure does not damage the device. Many business overnight bags have card slots, pen loops and a key chain in the main compartment. The most secure models feature scan-proof RFID compartments for personal and bank cards. Some brands install ID codes so that your luggage can be traced in the event of loss (or theft).

    Weekend bags for women

    What distinguishes a weekend bag for women? The first thing that comes to mind is probably a feminine design or colourful, playful patterns. But many manufacturers offer feminine weekend bags with wheels. These models are equipped with two fixed rollers and a telescopic handle or large pull loop. Weekend bags for women are especially recommended for frequent travellers with heavy luggage. They are a stylish alternative to the ordinary trolley. Of course, weekend bags with wheels are not a woman's privilege: many designs are unisex and men like to buy them. Wheel-less, feminine weekend bags stand out in contrast with them because of their decorative design and bright colours: a removable cosmetic pochette is also common.

    Weekend bags for men

    The classic men's models include overnight bags in a pithy vintage look. They are usually made of the so-called pull-up leather: It quickly develops a beautiful patina. Even more retro flair is radiated by leather models with a metal rail and snap closure on the upper edge. These weekend bags for men are also called doctor's bags. Their classic features include a short carrying handle and metal feet. Modern versions impress with a removable shoulder strap. A shoulder strap is obligatory for sporty weekend bags made of nylon: they are mainly used as spacious sports bags. Weekend bags with longer straps of up to 140 cm can be carried cross body.
