Carry-all
Weekend Bags for Short Trips and Busy Weeks
A weekend bag is a practical gift for overnight stays, gym trips, work travel and those times when a backpack is not quite enough.
Why people love it
Why it makes such a good gift
A weekend bag is useful when the recipient is always carrying more than expected: a change of clothes, trainers, toiletries, a laptop, food, or everything needed for one night away.
- Foldable bags are good as spares for holidays.
- Shoe compartments help for gym and sports use.
- Water-resistant fabric is useful for travel and commuting.
It is not a glamorous idea on paper, but a well-chosen holdall can become the bag they grab constantly.
