Rolo Travel Bag Review

Deals, Products and Companies / Mar 13th, 2020 by Karl W

If you’re a frequent traveler then one of your biggest concerns is obviously packing. For many, packing is always a downside to traveling. I recently found a new Kickstarter-funded product that is making minimalist travel a breeze – the Rolo Travel Bag .

One of the more popular minimalist packing solutions today are space bags, which are designed to save you a lot of space so you can travel light. However, space bags aren’t the most practical since they require that you have a vacuum. (You may have one at home, but you most likely won’t have one during your trip).

But one really cool packing solution is the Rolo Travel Bag. It’s a product designed to make packing an easier and more organized experience. The Rolo Travel Bag looks like a flat bag with several zippered mesh pockets to fit anything you want. Its design allows you to easily roll it up and keep your belongings sealed and safe.

In my use of the Rolo Travel Bag I have found three key benefits:

Pro #1: It forces you to pack only essentials

One thing you may want to know is that the Rolo bag is not meant to replace your normal travel bag if you *need* to bring a lot of stuff. The Rolo bag only fits so many things – it really just fits 2 – 4 day’s worth of clothes and some toiletries. But that’s just it! If your trip is only going to last a weekend, then you really only need the Rolo Travel Bag.

How many times have you had a weekend trip that only required a max of two or three changes, but you end up packing as if you’re embarking on a 2-week trip to Europe? This common pitfall of overpacking is partly attributed to the fact that you’re looking at a suitcase that fits more than what you’ll actually need. It’s only obvious you’ll want to fill up your bag.

But the Rolo alleviates this problem. It only fits so many things, so it’ll force you to pack only the bare essentials.

If you’re travelling for a wedding, for example, and need to bring dress shoes, a suit, etc, the Rolo won’t work.

Pro #2: It helps your packing stay organized

Rolo Travel Bags have different zippered compartments. These are meshed sections that allow you to see inside. So when you unroll your Rolo bag, you can see before you even unzip the compartments where you packed your toiletries, your underwear, your tops, and your bottoms. Not only do you take out only what you need but you also put it back wherever it goes. You don’t mix things around. You don’t have to pull everything out just to find that pair of red socks you want to wear on Day 1.

I am easily able to put in two pairs of paints, 1 pair of shorts, two shirts, two pairs of socks and underwear, and feel like there is plenty of space for extras.

Just put everything you need inside, then roll it up and everything will compress.

Pro #3: It’s super portable

When unpacked and rolled up the Rolo Bag is 17 inches long x 4 inches tall x 1.25 inches wide and weighs 1.25 lbs.

When you roll up your Rolo bag, it becomes the similar size to a rolled-up sleeping mat (or just a little thinner but longer). It comes with an attachable shoulder strap so you can easily carry it with you. Or, if you’re going to be backcountry camping, it becomes a separate carrier for your clothes, and an addition to your backpack. Just attach it to the bottom of the backpack like you would a sleeping mat and you’re ready to go. This leaves space for other things inside your main backpack. When you get to your campsite, you simple hang the Rolo on a tree and all your clothes are accessible with no fumbling through your backpack!

And hanging is easy, because the Rolo has a hanger built into it that allow you to hang the Rolo when you unfold it. This means that when you get your campsite/hostel/wherever you don’t need to unpack everything, you just unroll the bag and hang it up.

The Rolo Travel Bag is a must-have for any type of traveler concerned with saving space and weight. It simplifies packing, and everyone knows that simpler packing makes for a happier trip.

They are currently selling for $50 on the Rolo website .

California-Made Luggage to Take Anywhere

Before your next trip, get a durable carry-on, travel tote, duffel bag, or larger suitcase from these top luggage companies in California.

April 20, 2022

Packing for a vacation or work trip can be a bothersome task, especially if you’re trying to fit enough clothes into a small, battered suitcase that lacks adequate space and useful compartments, often leading you to sit on top of your bag in order to close it (if you can even get that pesky zipper to work). Sound familiar? If so, before you leave for your next getaway , consider picking up a new bag that’s functional, versatile, stylish, and—best of all—crafted in California. Whether you want a compact yet practical carry-on bag to avoid a trip to baggage claim when you deplane (not to mention luggage fees) or a big and sturdy full-sized suitcase for a weeklong vacay, there are numerous California-made tote bags and luggage that are enjoyable to use and pleasing to look at. Here are several luggage companies that create durable and tasteful carry-ons, travel totes, duffel bags, and larger suitcases right here in the Golden State.

Designed in the vibrant city of Berkeley, Rolo bags are specifically made for minimalist travelers, serving as carry-on or clothing organizers that can be used as in-suitcase or hanging storage. The signature Rolo Travel Bag features non-breakable zippers, indestructible buckets, and military-grade mesh pockets that can hold enough clothing for two to four days—and it even compresses into a light, easy-to-carry bag that’s about the size of a yoga mat. The latest version, Rolo II, boasts additional pockets, a carry-on handle, and new accessories such as a water-resistant cover and a toiletry kit. This newer iteration is so functional, in fact, that InStyle magazine recently said it "might be the greatest suitcase of all time". If you’re looking for luggage made in California , Rolo is an option to consider.

What started as a crowdfunding project that combined a gym bag and a work bag into a simplified design, Aer offers streamlined luggage sets that are functional for any occasion — whether you’re commuting from the office to the gym or traveling from Oakland to Tokyo. All the sleek, minimalist bags are made with premium materials in Union City , right across the water from bustling San Francisco . The company’s compact, award-winning Travel Pack recently underwent an upgrade: The chic Travel Pack 2 is optimized to meet domestic and international carry-on size limits and features compartments for travel documents, lockable zippers, a shoe compartment, a laptop pocket, and a lay-flat main section for easy packing.

WaterField Designs

WaterField Designs has been designing and handcrafting luggage in its humble San Francisco workshop for more than 20 years. The boutique company creates a variety of travel gear—from roomy backpacks to stylish totes, to cavernous carry-ons, to versatile duffel bags—in small batches, helping to reduce waste and maintain the high quality of every product. The durable Bolt duffel and Bolt backpack are both perfect for light packers, featuring substantial pockets for smaller items, padded laptop sleeves, and spacious compartments for clothes and shoes. Also ideal for travelers taking short trips, the Air Porter carry-on bag can serve as a hardy piece of luggage that maximizes legroom while you fly and enables you to travel hassle-free.

All feature military-grade hardware—including waterproof zippers and cobra buckles—spacious interiors, multiple pockets and compartments, comfortable handles or straps, and sleek exteriors. So, no matter which bag you choose, it will meet both your functional and aesthetic needs. Killspencer even adds a touch of personalization to each item by including a tag signed by the people who made it.

ROAM Luggage

This San Diego –based company claims to be the first brand that allows travelers to fully customize their suitcases. Founded by two alumni of the TUMI mega-brand, ROAM Luggage enables you to design your own personalized bag from scratch on its website, offering a million different possibilities. The premise is simple: Choose from four models—The Jaunt (a carry-on bag), The Jaunt XL (a wider carry-on bag), The Journey (a medium-sized bag), and The Globetrotter (a large suitcase)—then pick your colors and decide whether you want a monogram. Once you have made your choices, this California luggage company will make your bag to order and ship it to you in three business days or less. Handcrafted from light yet sturdy materials, the top-quality suitcases boast ultra-smooth ball-bearing wheels, durable zippers, comfy handles, and near-scratch-proof exteriors.

NEWS... BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT

Huge new film Hit Man that stunned critics finally arrives on Netflix and fans are already obsessed

Share this with

Netflix debuted Hit Man on Friday and within a day of its release, it has already become one of the top 10 films on the platform as fans rave about this romantic comedy.

The movie stars the beloved A-list heartthrob Glen Powell as a college professor who freelances for the police as a fake hitman who helps entrap people who hire him.

The premise is bizarre but the film is based on a real-life story and a real man named Gary Johnson who worked undercover for the police for years.

The real-life fake hitman helped the police make over 70 arrests and likely saved many people who may have otherwise met a grisly end.

The original Netflix series added a romantic line to this true story with the introduction of the character Madison (played by Adria Anjona). A welcome addition as the Star Wars actress and the Anyone But You lead share palpable on-screen chemistry.

The movie had drama, action, love, humour, mystery, and comedy – a combination that has thrilled fans who have loved this one hour 55-minute film.

The  action movie already has 96% on Rotten Tomatoes and fans on social media have gone wild for the new film, taking to X to share how much their enthusiasm.

Joerussotweets said on X that the film might be ‘the best movie of 2024’.

‘Just saw Richard Linklater’s HIT MAN the way it SHOULD be seen — on the big screen — and, MAN, does it HIT.

‘It’s a perfect vehicle for Glen Powell. He’s a f**ing movie star. It just may be the best movie of 2024. It’s such a crime you’ll have to stream it,’ they said.

BrandonSiedlik also commented: ‘#HitMan further proves that Glen Powell is a certified movie star. I think of him not as the last of a dying breed, but one of the first of a new generation.

‘This a remarkable performance filled with charisma and (in brief segments) displays immense range in a single role.’

I woke up this morning and while I was getting ready I remembered Hit Man came out on Netflix, so I threw it on and wound up watching the first 30 minutes again. Richard Linklater and Glen Powell wrote a damn near perfect screenplay and it’s so immediately apparent. pic.twitter.com/5pxpAKC9Ym — Rolo Tony (@PoorOldRoloTony) June 7, 2024

Others were also quick to compliment the lead actor, who morphed into several aliases during the movie as he wore wigs and different costumes to portray different killer identities.

Brockwilbur commented on X: ‘Hit Man is worth watching just for the scene of Glen Powell doing his best Patrick Bateman.’

If Tilda Swinton Glen Powell isn’t your favorite Glen Powell in Hit Man, what are you doing with your life? pic.twitter.com/wuPsgov2fR — Brandon Lewis (@blewis1103) June 7, 2024

I feel like they didn’t market Hit Man as a romance/rom com but girlies….. it is. — Sophia Benoit (@1followernodad) June 2, 2024

Ali_sivi commented: ‘I’m so sorry to type this sentence during pride month but Glen Powell stuns in hit man.’

1followernodad: ‘I feel like they didn’t market Hit Man as a romance/rom com but girlies….. it is.’

A common complaint from fans is that this film was deserving of a bigger theatrical reception and should have premiered at a cinema rather than a streaming platform.

However, the praise for Glen’s performance is unanimous as reviews pour in to praise his acting and hilarity in this leading role.
