I wanted to see how this Luka bag compared to the Luka Medium Duffle. Both have the luggage pass through pocket which is a plus! Both have the puffy exterior that I love! Both have padded shoulder straps! Both have oodles of pockets especially the pocket on the luggage pass through that is hidden. I haven’t carried it on the plane yet, but I do like how the Luka Tote seems more rigid due to the Laptop pocket, The Luka Duffle seems floppy on top of my Luka roller bag. I think I like both of these bags equally with their compatible features. Just depends on what I feel like using!

I like the tote very much and feel a few improvements could be made. There should be a dedicated water bottle spot, and I’d prefer the expandable section be separated from the main compartment so you can put shoes in, not just lengthening the existing bag. Others have commented that the straps fall off their shoulders, this hasn’t been too much of a problem for me. The bag sits comfortably on my shoulder and is very room with some great pockets. The luggage sleeve could also be a little bit wider, had to wrestle a little with getting it off my carryon luggage handle.
