Burton’s popular Wheelie Flight Deck Bag was a huge hit when it first came out, and for good reason—it put all the things you love about a duffel on wheels, allowing you to easily stuff your bag to the hilt, then easily wheel that overstuffed bag to wherever it was
you were heading. That being said, it was still a Burton bag, which meant it looked more suited for a college-aged snowboarder than an everyday working professional. And that’s where Filson comes in.
The ultimate American Great Outdoors company has taken Burton’s flagship carry-on and put their classic rugged, outdoorsy spin on it, resulting in a beautiful carry-on that can easily go from business trip to camping trip without anyone being the wiser.
We’re talking a gorgeous oil-finish twill construction, rugged PU back panels, and leather zipper pulls on the outside along with a roomy, wool-lined interior, volume-enhancing CRAM™ Zones (wtf?), and convenient mesh divider on the inside. It’s even got real deal skateboard wheels for super-smooth rolling and easy replacement and/or customization. And as for size, the 18 oz. bag is built just right, giving you enough room to pack your essentials and then some while easily satisfying most airline carry-on regulations. Plus it comes with a lifetime warranty, so you can feel free to beat the shit out of it without thinking twice.
Bottom line: If you’re looking for a tough, rugged carry-on that’s equally built for the indoors as it is the outdoors, you can’t really do much better than the Filson x Burton Flight Deck Travel Bag.
