I've Tested Hundreds of Bags, and the Oprah-approved Calpak Luka Duffel Is My All-time Favorite

"This Oprah-approved bag is super versatile, whether you're traveling domestically, internationally, or using it as your at-home gym bag. I love the Luka Duffel so much that I own it in three sizes, and I get tons of use out of each one. There's something so appealing about the playful, puffy shape, which is also water-resistant, scratch-resistant, and helps cushion belongings. Plus, the color variety is unmatched. I've traveled with my Luka Duffels on more than a dozen trips-here's why I love all three sizes."

"The iconic Luka Duffel is my go-to personal item bag for domestic flights because it's perfectly sized to fit underneath an airplane seat and can hold my in-flight essentials, like headphones, my laptop, a book, a sweater, and snacks. I've owned this bag for two years and taken it with me all across the U.S., including trips from New York City to San Diego, Seattle, Denver, Austin, Nantucket, Salem, and the Hamptons."

"As a professional gear tester, I always examine the organizational features of a bag, and I've determined there's no such thing as too many pockets. That's my favorite thing about this bag: It has nine pockets total, including zipper pockets, slip pockets, a hidden anti-theft pocket inside the trolley pass-through sleeve, a laptop pocket, and even a shoe compartment (the best packing hack to keep your dirty shoes from touching the rest of your belongings)."
