  • Thoughtful pockets and compartments

Calpak Travel earns largely positive reviews for stylish, well‑engineered luggage and bags—especially the Luka duffel, Terra 26L Backpack Duffel, and clear cosmetic cases—that feel durable, glide smoothly, and offer smart organization like shoe compartments, trolley sleeves, and abundant pockets. Reviews also flag weaknesses: occasional strap and zipper failures, scuffing or peeling materials, cramped carry‑on interiors, dark linings that obscure contents, and mixed warranty/customer service experiences, so buyers who prioritize long‑term durability and support should weigh these trade‑offs.

  • Absolutely love this brand! I own about 10 pieces so far! Great quality and construction, fantastic colors and features! Wonderful customer service! Here is a selection of my silver Luka backpacks, belt bag, key pouch and expandable tote!

  • I adore Calpak. Ive given my sisters the Luka duffel (shes a college student) and the lunch bag (this one is a nurse) and they always tell me how much they love these gifts! Both of these items fit their needs and are perfect for them. I personally own the Compakt tote bag and use it everyday! It fits so much and i love the zipper. My next purchase is the Terra 26L backpack! Hopefully white sands comes back in stock soon.

  • i really like the luka and terra collections. my favorite has to be the luka duffle and small cosmetics case. i recently bought three additional items to try out, the small luka belt bag, stevyn mini, and small terra belt bag, the quality of all of them is 10/10, happy with my purchases so far.

  • I couldn't be happier with my new Calpak backpack! The color is gorgeous—eye-catching yet subtle enough to go with anything. It’s packed with pockets, so staying organized is effortless; I can fit my laptop, chargers, and everything else I need with ease. Shipping was also incredibly fast—I had it in my hands just days after ordering. If you’re looking for a stylish and practical backpack, this one is a winner!

  • Best travel gear out there - been using my Luka backpack for 3 years and it’s still beautiful, no rips or stains and I carry A LOT for work. I had an issue with an order I place where I needed to cancel and though it was already shipped out the calpak customer service rep was incredibly helpful in cancelling my order, definitely recommend. Will continue to be a customer

  • I’m such a big fan of Calpak! I absolutely love their travel accessories and they are my go-too for everything travel related!! The quality is top notch tans sooo aesthetically pleasing. I always look forward to purchasing from them!

  • I absolutely love my Calpak Ambeur 2-Piece Luggage Set in Rose Gold. It fits my personality and it is such a treat to travel with this efficient and lightweight travel set. I love the ease of rolling through airports with my rose gold beauties. I have had them for about 3 years and they have held up really well. I always get compliments for them and I am planning on acquiring the medium size piece to complete the set.

  • I think I have about 8 pieces from Calpak and I love every single one of them. They’ve become my go-to travel brand because of the functionality and quality of their pieces, and they also just look so good. I’ve added a picture of just a few of things I’ve bought from them. I can’t speak on their customer service or anything like that because I haven’t had any problem or issues I’ve had to deal with. Overall I think Calpak is an awesome brand and I’ll continue to buy from them and recommend them to all my friends and family.

  • CALPAK has been my one to got for all my travel needs. From their well made, functional, and sturdy products- I have no need to look else wear. their packing cubes are one of my favorite products from them. They are so sturdy and love the little detail to be able to label each cube. Overall- love their products!

  • Have loved my purchases through CALPAK. They have great products that are useful, durable and stylish. Their customer service has been very responsive and helpful. I’ve ordered nearly 10 things from them and they have all be just as advertised and shipped quickly.

  • LOVE my CALPAK bags! Got a work bag and gym bag. Have tried so many other bags but keep coming back to these because of the organization and quality and beautiful colors. I take my gym bag (duffel) and backpack on travels too, with my CALPAK carry on luggage. East trolly/luggage sleeve on the back of my items. Love love love the well thought out and functional design. Just be careful to not overload the backpack because it can stretch the straps !!

  • Love Calpak so much! I first purchased a suitcase from them back in 2019 for international travel, and I get compliments on this case every time I travel! I since have purchased several items from them, and simply cannot rate them high enough on the quality and style of their products. Cannot get enough of this brand!

  • I am strictly a paying customer. The Luka backpack only lasted 4 trips, and then the handle started tearing out of the seam. I could send it back at my own expense and they would repair it. Or I could ask for a replacement, but had to write a statement that I would not be able to ask for another replacement ever again. Calpak does not offer refunds after 30 days. I am disappointed in their customer service and will not buy anything further from Calpak. I'm OUT!

  • Calpak has officially become my one stop for any of my travel needs. I purchased the Luka Duffel in Purple, the clear cosmetic bag in small, medium and large in the “Lime” color and they’ve all lived up to the hype! The Luka duffel is amazing for bring a carry on bag that is lightweight, comfortable and cute. The bag straps itself have extra padding that are very forgiving when carrying it through the airport! The clear cosmetic bags are also amazing in holding all your makeup and toiletries. Also helps that the bag is clear making it easy to get through TSA!

  • I have a Luka duffle, a small & medium toiletry bag & the mini wrist Luka! I’ve yet to be disappointed in any purchase! The toiletry bags hold so much… I can successfully get all my liquids into the small one for carry-ons. The Luka duffle is a great bag for a weekend getaway; you will be surprised how much you can fit. The mini Luka backpack ( not the correct name but looks like) is a fave for cruising. I can put money, reusable straw & lip gloss in it and attach to my lanyard. No it doesn’t fit my phone but who needs a phone on a cruise?! My next purchase is a medium check-in… promise a review!

  • I love this bag. I love it so much I got my partner a matching back pack and he loved it. It made our traveling so much better and freed our hands which is essential when traveling with a toddler. I will continue buying from Cal PAK.

  • I have ordered a handful of products from Calpak, and the price is high but the quality matches! Good products are worth the price. I love the clear cosmetics cases, I have 2 sizes. I also have two sizes of the Luka duffle bag. They will be my first choice for travel and storage needs

  • Firstly, Calpak has great customer service! They are always there by email or text if anything arises with your item or you just have a question. I own 4 or 5 Calpak items at the moment and they all serve different purposes and are of high quality. I love the variety of colors available for many items and am especially impressed by the amount of pockets in my newest Calpak item, the Terra duffle bag. I will continue to be a Calpak customer!

  • I love CALPAK! They have the best quality bags and I am obsessed with their Terra backpack for travel and cannot wait to purchase more luggage!

  • Utmost, love the quality of the brand, from the sewing to the zippers. Calpak duffel is not to be beat. Fits under my airline seat (Southwest), wide straps are comfy, fits so much, and puffy exterior is cute and easy to clean. Plus has key leash and pass-through trolley. My daughter is in Italy on a college trip right now and took the Calpak duffel because it fits so much. I dont like the Luka expandable tote as much because it is too big for my taste, black interior makes it hard to find things inside, and interior pockets are loosey-goosey and not snug. But it will fit everything -- big laptop (mine is 15 inches and there's plenty of room still), a lunch bag, a water bottle, so I use it when I have a lot to bring to work. But again, it is cute and so well made. Also love the crocodile wallet. It is sleek and looks expensive, fits passport and you can use it as a handbag or crossbody. My laptop sleeve is ultra cute, too. So soft inside! Can't go wrong with this brand!!!
