Why a weekend bag is ideal for short trips

A good weekend bag combines capacity with flexibility so you can carry clothes, toiletries and a laptop compactly without the rigid shape of a suitcase. A soft bag fits easily into the trunk or overhead locker and practical compartments keep everything organised. Travelling light? Choose a small weekend bag that qualifies as cabin baggage. For extra comfort there are weekend bags with wheels and a telescopic handle for longer walks. Prefer hands-free? Models with an adjustable shoulder strap or trolley-connector give you carrying options. At ByMetz you'll find unisex designs for men and women, from sporty to luxe, so your bag matches your style and travel rhythm.

What size weekend bag do you need?

Capacity in litres determines how much you can take. Use the guideline below to choose quickly. Tip: if you travel with hand luggage-only airlines, watch for dimensions like 40 x 30 x 20 cm, such as our ByMetz 40 x 30 x 20 travel bag. Looking for the right size?

Material, carrying comfort and smart features

For work trips a weekend bag with a laptop compartment is practical to keep your device safe and separate. If you travel often by public transport or plane, a trolley-connector, sturdy handles and a detachable shoulder strap are indispensable. Want maximum mobility? Consider a travel bag with wheels. Bringing toiletries? See our toiletry bags & beauty cases. Our range includes Samsonite, Travelite and Reisenthel models, plus stylish options like the Negotia Alpha leather weekend bag.
