Paravel reviews and discussion

Love my paraval suitcase! Wheels very well even on cobblestone. I also love that some of the pieces are made from recycled water bottles. Fits quite a bit and is very light so the weight doesn’t contribute to the limit. I did get beige, and I noticed that it sometimes scuffs, but it’s easy enough to get most of the scuffs out.

I took some time before reviewing to really see how functional the tote can be. This tote is by far my favorite and most versatile one yet. I used it for one of my recent trips. It can fit so much, looks amazing and overall a wonderful tote. I highly recommend getting the tote and will be looking into further items.

I actually received the fold-up backpack last Christmas, and hadn't had much of an opportunity to put it to use until recently. I regret not using it sooner though. It's a generous size, despite packing down pretty small, the straps are not padded, but they're still comfortable with a decent amount of weight, the bottom is slightly padded, and there's a kind-of lumbar pocket that can be unzipped to act as a luggage pass through which is just awesome. This bag was definitely designed by travelers, and it feels really durable and high-quality without being too heavy or bulky. The monogramming is also really nicely done. Overall I'm a big fan and will probably get more pieces from Paravel.

Love my medium bag. It travels perfectly, fitting a ton of stuff while maintaining it's shape and sits perfectly on top of the away bigger carry on (although, fully filled, it doesn't balance on top of the suitcase and requires being held). I can shove it under the seat in front of me on an airplane, and I like all the compartments to keep stuff organized.

I received the Fold-Up Bag as a gift from work and so far I really enjoy it. I love that it's eco-friendly and collapsable, and it has an internal zipper to store anything you don't want to get lost in the shuffle. It also has a zipper that allows you to loop it through the handle of a suitcase, which is really convenient for travel. Overall, it's very simple, sleek, and stylish. I envision myself bringing it on a trip already collapsed in case I need an extra bag for things that don't fit in my suitcase on the way home. Bonus points for matching perfectly with my navy blue Away bag.

I have their weekender set plus and its seriously my favorite set to travel with. Their aviator has a compression board thats super helpful and the wheels are just beyond. The weekender matches the suitcase really well and also has a strap that goes over the handles which i love. makes running to my gate a lot easier. the weekender also fits perfectly under the seat while still storing a surprising amount of items. quality is better than i expected and overall love how sharp it all looks together. def stands out as more unique in the airport.

Paravel is my favorite and go-to for travel and everyday bags. I use their see-through vanity cases in my work bag to hold cords + necessities. Their customer service has been phenomenal when I went through a broken zipper issue. Love their design as well as their mission!

I bought this years ago before a trip and it is still one of my go tos when I travel it is so easy to use and I can just pop it into another bag it has held up and honestly can withstand a fair amount of weight.

I can't say much about their more expensive weekenders as they're probably stay on my "want" list for much longer but don't ignore their packable line!! The small packable backpack has saved my life time and time again. It's durable and thick but still folds down nicely.

The weekender and the packing cubes are so cute. I love the brand's mission and focus on sustainability. I didn't understand the power of packing cubes until I started packing for my kids and multi-stop trips. It makes unpacking and repacking completely manageable.

Now this is a ludicrously capacious bag. This tote ain't kidding around. It's HUGE, I don't even know how anyone could fill it up all the way and if you can, then you have too much stuff. I used it during a weekend trip and while it held everything, I wish it could zip shut and that there was more padding on the straps for more support.

Great quality, elevated design - definitely stands out among aa sea of competitors

I heard about Paravel luggage and bags from a friend and have been very eager to try. When I saw the totes were available via Thingdrop, I made sure to set my alarm! I went with the medium Cabana tote in Shandy. I am very happy with the size and quality of the bag. It looks very sleek for the summer without any branding on it. Shandy looks very classic to me; featuring a small black line on the colorful straps and tan, I am comfortable wearing it with browns and black. Surprise and delight; I had no idea the bag had a zipper closure, I was too click happy to get the bag in the color and size I wanted, I didn't read the full description. There is also a longer crossbody / shoulder strap! I purposely got the bag to use for beach and pool trips and it 100% exceeded expectations. It held a twin size sheet for the sand, beach towel, snacks, water bottle, sunglasses, keys, wallet, headphones, sunscreen, and book. There are great side and inside zip pockets to help organize the personal items.

they gave me a free foldable backpack with the purchase of the alta backpack, that was a lovely surprise

I have the passport holder and fold-up bag. I really like both, but wish that 1) they could be customized after purchase and 2) that the brand used less leather. Especially when I use them for flying it would be nice to cut down on emissions in my accessories!

I got the large Cabana Tote and I love it! I used it on a 4day weekend vacation and I like that it can carry a lot for an over packer like myself. :) Quality and build is excellent.

Beautiful, high-quality product that merges fashion with function. Bit expensive but we predict it will be worth it from years of use. Also, fantastic, prompt customer service for an exchange due to a mis-order on our part. Love the team who helped us!

After eyeing their Fold Up Belt Bag for ages, I finally bought it and have zero regrets. It zips up super small, but it is pretty roomy for a fanny pack. Fits a wallet, phone, a pack of tissues, keys, a couple of lip balms, hand sanitizer and still has some room to give.

I haven’t tried the luggage, but I’m a big fan of the packing cubes

High quality canvas tote with a very classic design. Shipped well and I like the stitching on the bag. Not sure I would pay full price for the bag though, it isn't weather resistant and the color definitely gets dirty easy.
