Lightweight with Strength and Durability

Tired of Heavy Luggage? Lighten Up with Featherweight!

Pick up a four pound dumbbell and carry it around all day, or imagine if you had to carry two laptops. By the end of the day, rest assured you’d be tired of that extra weight. So why do the same thing with your luggage? Business travel is difficult enough these days without adding unnecessary weight to the task.

A lightweight laptop travel bag and electronics organizer. Orvis Featherweight Luggage was designed specifically to remove as much weight as possible and not sacrifice the durability and integrity of the luggage. Orvis designers searched the world for the lightest components available that would still meet the standards of strength and durability that Orvis demands of its luggage.

Modern Design

The good news is, new technologies and composite materials are now available that allow this remarkably lightweight luggage to be made. Just a few years ago, this wouldn’t have been possible. Orvis Featherweight is made to the same wear and tear standards of all other Orvis luggage and each and every component was researched, weighed and tested against other components to find the best combination of materials for this luggage.

There are three pieces in the Featherweight line, one Rollacase, one Briefcase and a Backpack. The Rollacase weighs a mere 6.8 pounds. It has a telescoping handle and two exterior pockets and is fitted with ball-bearing, in-line skate wheels for effortless and lasting service. The Briefcase is designed like our Safe Passage Laptop Briefcase, but weighs less and has the handle pocket on the back allowing it to slip snugly over the telescoping handle for a secure and easy-to-maneuver travel combination.

Lightweight with Ergonomic Design Means Less Stress

The backpack is incredibly light and is built with an ergonomic design that fits and feels better than any backpack we’ve ever tested. No doubt the fact that it weighs next to nothing has something to do with our enthusiasm.

Running from one concourse to the other is tough enough without carrying around unnecessary weight. Shave off a few pounds and see what a remarkable difference it can make in how you feel at the end of the day.

Packing tips from Dave Parker of Orvis Travel

Dave Parker of Orvis Travel gives tips for packing light.

Here at Orvis, we put our travel clothing and luggage to the real-life test every day. Our Orvis Travel staff and product developers log thousands of miles a year to bring you the very best, most authentic travel experiences and gear.

With new airline regulations and fees, it’s more important than ever to pack wisely. We asked our own Dave Parker -- Managing Director of our in-house travel agency – for tips on how to pack to ensure you get the most out of your travels:

Cotton/synthetic-blend fabrics are easy to wash and dry on the road. If laundry service is a given, our pure cotton wrinkle-free shirts are a great choice for travel too. If you pack enough shirts for three days, you have enough for a week. Also, plan to buy a shirt or two at your destination. It's one way to take home a practical souvenir.
Choose a bag made of ballistic nylon cloth. They are strong, yet light in weight. If you start with a heavy bag, it's all downhill from there.
Think about color schemes when you pack. Make sure everything you bring is in the same palette, so it all matches.
Think layers. Instead of a single heavy jacket, for example, take light layers that can be added and subtracted according to the weather. For cool climes, take a base layer of merino wool, then a synthetic/cotton-blend shirt, a fleece vest, and then an outer layer shell to stop rain and wind. For cold climates, use a warmer base layer and a thicker fleece with long sleeves.
Ship ahead. It sounds extravagant, but if you're going to a single place where you need a lot of gear (e.g., waders, fly rods, skis, etc.), it’s wise to ship it. The parcel services all have good tracking systems, and you'll know where your bag is ahead of time. (I'm doing this for an Alaska trip in August. Who wants to carry waders?)
Think ounces. Take the smallest container/amount of toiletries possible, especially if you can replenish at your destination. There’s no need to take 16 oz. of shampoo for a one-week trip. Get a couple of small, refillable plastic bottles, and fill them at home before you go.
Stay organized. Use nylon bags or large, clear freezer bags to compartmentalize. Put all the socks in one bag, etc. Knowing what you have helps you avoid over-packing.

Unless you're a professional photographer, take the smallest digital camera you can. The picture quality will still be excellent.
Wear your biggest/heaviest shoes on the plane and pack the lighter ones.
Don't forget to ask about rental gear before you pack. Some fishing lodges have everything you need, especially if they're Orvis-endorsed.
