Patagonia MLC 45L

posted in: Gear Reviews 305

You thought Mary Poppins had the ideal travel bag? Wait until you meet the Patagonia MLC 45L.

The M.L.C. (Maximum Legal Carry On) is a 45L soft sided messenger style or backpack piece of luggage. Because it is not hard sided it fits easily into the overhead compartments and gives you the flexibility to even put it under the seat in-front of you. The MLC includes a padded laptop sleeve big enough to fit up to a 17-inch laptop, organizational sleeve for pens, notebooks, chargers and even an iPad, and a mesh cover in the main compartment to keep items in place. Not seeking adventure travel? This bag is big enough to fit your suits and extra shoes, business people!

Suggested for trip 2-5 days long, personal experience has allowed us to utilize this bag for trips 5-14 days and still come home with un-worn garments. 

Hands down the best carry-on bag on the market - Nice work Patagonia.
