avg. reader score

HAVEN'T RATED

Military-chic meets durable versatility. The Triple Aught Design Meridian Transport Case is a carry-on bag that works well for both business and leisure travel. Sleek and understated aesthetics suit a variety of settings, while multiple compartments and pockets keep gear organized on the go. The construction is solid too, with a VX-21 Ripstop shell, YKK water-resistant zippers, and AustriAlpin COBRA buckles. The interior also benefits from TAD's Helix attachment system, allowing Transport Cubes to be attached for custom carry setups.
