This by far was the best review EVER that I've seen on this bag! No one is actually packing them and showing the difference between sizes it's so frustrating. Finally, someone who is doing it right! Thank you!! Very much appreciated and very helpful! Do you by chance have the Dagne Dover Landon carryall? If so would you have an opinion of which you prefer?
Great video - FYI, the regular luka duffle will fit your laptop on the outside long zip. May not with your laptop case on it, but it's perfect for a laptop and keeps it safe. Happy traveling!
One of the best comparison videos I've seen. Looking for a carryon to take with my checked luggage to Europe. Looking to take xtra 1-2 outfits , pair of shoes, pj, tech and toiletries and makeup. The Luka large is looking good!
Thank you for the great video comparing the regular size & large duffel size! also appreciate you stating your height b/c i'm also 5'2 and it's so helpful to see how big the bag is on someone of similar height :D the packing portion was also helpful to see since I'm def an overpacker...thanks again!! keep up the great content :D
This is my first (but not the last) purchase of a D U P B A G Y bag. For the affordable price, it exceeded my expectations! It's soft, the perfect size, and the color is gorgeous! Love this bag!
Great video! I’m searching for the best weekender bag to go over my carry on suitcase for my trip to Europe. I’m definitely liking the look of the Luka bag but my question is, do all of these work as a personal item to go underneath the seat on the plane? I wanna make sure I don’t get stuck having to check my carry on suitcase and end up buying a bag that will only count as a “carry on” item. Thanks for your help!
Thank you so much for watching!! Yeah I love the Luka. The regular size duffel, the laptop tote and the Stevyn have worked as a personal item for me but on a domestic flight! I haven’t taken any of them internationally. The Luka duffel is probably my favorite out of these 4 though. :) Have fun on your Europe trip, so jealous!!
@@Kayleefromkansas I have come back to this vid several times since I first watched it and I plan to order the Luka duffel this week thanks to you! I think it'll be good for both work and personal travel, as well as overnight trips. Thanks again! P.S. Calpak should give you a commission ;)
I KNOW I'm late to the party/video. But the cream Luka I believe can fit EVERYTHING you had on you bed if you rearrange how you packed them. Starting with your laptop after your shoes. AND place them in opposite end of each other to maximize space rather then the two heels of the tennis shoes same side. Like you did with the black saddles. Also try rolling ans placing your hair tools long way inside of the width/across your bag. Think you could easily fit everything so you can enjoy all your items on your weekend getaway 😊

@@Kayleefromkansas I ordered it yesterday! I’m excited! I’ll use it for a work trip in a couple of weeks and I’m sure I can use it for overnights or maaaaybe weekends as well- but I pack skincare like you 😂
I’ve been looking at the Luka duffel after my friend’s recommendation and your video is the best and most comprehensive review of all the Luka bags I’ve been looking at, so thank you. I’m pretty sure that the tote and regular duffel fit under a plane seat, but do you think the large one will?
Thank you for watching, I’m so glad it was helpful! I think the large duffel would be more of a true carry on than a personal item, my guess is that it’s too large to fit under a plane seat! These are the best bags, your friend made a good recommendation. 😉
out of the regular luka duffle vs. large one, which do you feel you grab more? my only concern is i wear platform boots and seeing the shoe compartment (you mentioned it takes up room inside the actual bag itself) i am wondering if it’s smarter to go for the larger (only planning to pack one pair.) i wanted your honest opinion because this video was very helpful and informative when it came to showing the true sizes!✨
Kaylee, Thanks for the great review! I am a first grade teacher. Which bag do you think would be most useful? I bring home books and a laptop home nightly. ❤️
Thank you for watching!! My sister is a teacher as well, thank you for doing what you do! Honestly the more I use the laptop tote, the more I enjoy it. I think that’s what I would recommend honestly!
Thank you for the review. I'm also a teacher and trying to decide between the laptop tote and Luka 15 inch backpack. Which do you think would be better for a work bag? @@Kayleefromkansas
@@PZMommymy sister is a teacher and I asked her, she said the backpack would be her choice because her hands are always so full trying to get inside the building!
Thank you for this!! Is the large Luka duffle bigger than the Stevyn after filled? It seems like it still had room but the stevyn didn’t? Also between the stevyn and Luka large duffle- which is heavier filled? Last thing, I tried typing in the link for $25 off but it didn’t pull up anything, is it still valid or am I too late?
Thank you for watching!! Ugh that link works sometimes and sometimes it doesn’t, you might try a private browser page or a different browser all together? As far as the size, I would say the large Luka is still bigger. I’m about to post another vlog style video where I packed the large Luka for a trip and it seemed HUGE. Weight…they’d probably be about the same, depending on how much you put in the bag. Stevyn might run a tad bit heavier just because of the material it’s made out of.
Great video! Thank you so much! I am trying to decide between the first 3. Which one fits under an airplane seat better? Will the XL duffel even fit under a seat?
Thank you so much for watching! I do think the XL duffel is too big to fit under a seat, yes. I’ve used the Stevyn as a personal item and it fit fine on its side, I’m traveling in a few weeks and intend to take the regular Luka duffel as a personal item!
the most helpful and realistic review 🙌🏼 love the luka collection!🤎 I have also been eyeing the stevyn duffel/roller so this gave me a better idea of what would fit inside.
Awesome video and review! Gave you ever used the calpak cosmetic bags of packing cubes? If so, can you review them? Or anything else calpak you have. Thanks!
Thank you so much for watching! I do have an older set of packing cubes, and have been going back and forth on with size of the cosmetic bag I think I’d like. I do also have some calpak luggage and I’d be more than happy to do a review on that! They also have some new releases I have my eyes on…. :)
Oh that would be great if you could review what you have and definitely anything new you may get!! Your reviews are thorough! And calpak seems amazing quality. I saw an Amazon dupe of the Luka duffel. Just doubt the quality. Ya know? Their cosmetics bags are adorable. Curious about those as well!🌸
Oh yeah, I know what you mean. Honestly it does make a difference paying some more $ even though I don’t love it haha. I just ordered a cosmetic bag, so as soon as I get it I’ll do a review!
Hi! Thanks so much for the helpful review. :) I recently bought the Stevyn to use as a carry-on in the overhead compartment and can’t decide if I should try to exchange it for the Luka large duffel. I like how durable the Stevyn feels, but it’s a bit heavier and smaller than I excepted. Which one do you reach for more or recommend as an overhead carry-on for trips? Does one hurt your shoulder more than the other?
Hi, thank you so much for watching!! I completely understand where you’re coming from! To be honest, the Stevyn is my least favorite bag. I definitely reach for the Luka more. I took the Stevyn with me to Hawaii and I didn’t like that to get something out like my iPad for example, I had to open the main compartment of the bag. I would also say the Stevyn is more awkward to carry around! Great bag but for me it’s more of a gym bag versus travel bag. Hopefully that helps! 😊
Thanks for the video this is great! I am looking for a carry on to take a 6 day cruise. I plan to check a suitcase but want a carry on bag with my “just in case my suitcase” gets lost supplies! Would you recommend regular or large?
Thank you for watching!! As an anxious over packer I’d pick the Large… :) it just helps me feel better about having everything I need if I need it, and enough space! Have a great time!
Hey Kaylee, your review is what led me to look at Calpak. I need a big, all in one tote for work so I'm not walking around looking like a bag lady! I tried to click your link and it took me to a blank page so I tried typing it and still nothing. Does your link still work?
You know I used to say it wouldn’t, but I think it its not stuffed totally full and you’re on a normal size plane, it would probably be okay. It’s not that much bigger than what I saw when I looked up the American personal item size requirements. If it’s totally full, I probably wouldn’t try it but that’s just me!
Does the large Luka bag fit under the airline seat? I’ve tried to review under seat dimensions and compare them to the Luka but it’s hard to figure out.
Thank so much for watching! Personally I think the large Luka is too big to fit under the seat, unless it’s not totally packed full then you might be able to get away with it on its side…
Good afternoon, I have been emailing Calpak regarding me not receiving a dust bag with my Luka carry on and the Luka duffle bag. They state the Luka collection doesn’t come with dust bags. Did you receive a dust bag.😢
@@Kayleefromkansas yes I want the dragon fruit color. I first thought their cosmetic bags didn’t hold a lot but kept watching different videos and changed my mind. Also thinking about the lunch bag, maybe that would in courage me to cook. Lol
FINALLY someone who gave us a multiple day, THOROUGH video review.. that was also to point of all the different carry on bag options... THANK YOUUU !!
So glad you enjoyed it, thank you for watching! :)

Nice comparison. The black liner would be a dealbreaker for me.
Thank you for watching! Yes, if it’s darker it can be hard to find what you’re looking for but I also find that the wide opening of the bags help!

Wow this is the best calpak bag video I have seen so far. Now the touch decision which one to buy.
Ha, thanks for watching! Yes as I was editing this I had the same thought haha
@@Kayleefromkansas I bought the laptop tote it was on sale. I have too many duffles already. It was a hard decision
I hope you love it!! It’s one of my favorite bags.
Would love to see a what’s known my work bag with the Luka laptop tote bag!
Love this idea, thank you!!!
Amazing review - thank you for actually showing the packing capacities!
Thank you so much for watching!

Never late to the party! I’ll have to try this method as I’m traveling in a few weeks. Thanks for the tips, and for watching!
Now this is a review! Bless you!
Thank you so much for watching! 💕

Hahahaha I love that, you can’t leave the skincare behind!!
The tote would be great and I'd love to buy but for one HUGE problem... no cross body strap to support the weight when packed full and need hands free
Yeah, I can agree with that for sure!

Hello, your camera is way too high, we want to see the bags, not the pillows behind you. Thanks
Nice high kick girl! 😂 I just bought the stevyn!!!
Hahaha I do not know why I put that in there 😂 I hope you love it!! The Stevyn is the bag that really started my calpak love affair lol
Great Review!! I am going to get the Luka Large!

Thanks! Now purchasing
Enjoy!! ❤️
This was so helpful, thank you! Does the Stevyn work as a personal item?
Thank you for watching! Yep, I used it as a personal item on Delta and American!
@@Kayleefromkansas thank you!
On the Luca Duffles, do the straps slip off your shoulders?

Loved this review!
Thank you so much and thanks for watching!!
Crazy question: Can I use an iron on these bags? I have an "Iron on" patch I'd like to put on mine. Thanks in advance.
I don’t think I would, I’m guessing the fabric would melt!
Love the review
What would you say about the quality of the straps of the laptop tote
Thanks so much for watching! Top notch!! I’ve been using it for several weeks now and have no issues or concerns.

I am not keen on too large a bag because I would fill it then it’s too heavy to carry.

Good afternoon, I have been emailing Calpak regarding me not receiving a dust bag with my Luka carry on and the Luka duffle bag. They state the Luka collection doesn’t come with dust bags. Did you receive a dust bag.😢
Hello! I’m still surprised you didn’t get one for the carry on but I did not get a dust bag for the duffel! It was wrapped in plastic.
Did the oatmeal color get dirty when you traveled with it?
I honestly haven’t had any issues! The fabric of the bag is easy to wipe down too so that helps.
My next bag I want is from the Hue collection. I want the Hue duffle bag.
Good choice! I think my next purchase is one of the cosmetic bags..
@@Kayleefromkansas yes I want the dragon fruit color. I first thought their cosmetic bags didn’t hold a lot but kept watching different videos and changed my mind. Also thinking about the lunch bag, maybe that would in courage me to cook. Lol
@@lisagraves5813 LOL you'll have to let me know if that works because I have the same problem!
But also would be nice to have links to all four bags!

Does the link above for $25 off $150 still work ?
I just tried to click the link and it didn't work :(
