Caribee Sierra Backpack - 20L - Black Gold

Yes. This bag is designed to fit under the seat in front of you on most aircraft.

Why this matters for small planes:
On regional aircraft (like QantasLink Dash-8 or Rex Saab 340), overhead lockers are often too small for standard suitcases, forcing passengers to "Gate Check" their bags.

Because this bag is within the strict "Personal Item" dimensions (typically 45cm x 33cm x 20cm), you can keep it with you at your feet, avoiding the wait at the tarmac baggage collection.

Most of our supplier's range of luggage and bags are designed to be Water Resistant, meaning they can withstand rain showers and splashes during travel, but they are not fully "Waterproof" (submersible).

• Hard Shell Suitcases: The outer shell is impervious to water, keeping your contents dry in the rain. However, water can eventually seep through the zipper teeth in heavy downpours.
• Soft Shells & Fabric Bags: These are typically treated with water-repellent coatings to bead off light rain, but prolonged exposure to heavy storms may result in moisture soaking through.
• Leather Items: Genuine leather is porous. While it handles light splashes, we recommend keeping leather bags out of heavy rain to prevent staining or damage.

Recommendation: If you are traveling with sensitive electronics (laptops/cameras) in extreme weather, we always recommend placing them inside an internal plastic sleeve or dry bag for 100% protection.

Fabric/Nylon: Wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soapy water. Allow to air dry in the shade. Do not machine wash.

Leather: Leather is a natural material that develops character over time. To keep it looking its best, we recommend using a specialized Leather Conditioner every 6-12 months to prevent drying or cracking. Avoid direct sunlight for long periods.

Please note: As leather is a natural product, slight variations in color, grain, and texture are normal and add to the unique character of each piece. These are not considered defects.
