Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Bellroy Transit Carry-On is Streamlined and Sustainable

— May 9, 2025 — World
Many luggage styles are notorious for being well-built but unusable upon being damaged, so the Bellroy Transit Carry-On has been designed by the brand as an alternative that's ready to be repaired when required. The suitcase features an ultra-chic, minimalist design that includes a sleek exterior that's crafted out of 80% post-consumer recycled plastic. The case is also suitable for being repaired thanks to wheels, zippers and handles that can be swapped out if or when they fail in just 10-minutes to eliminate the need for the entire luggage piece to be replaced.

The Bellroy Transit Carry-On comes in a handful of chic color options and has a series of packing cubes inside that will organize and divide essentials to maximize every inch of space.
