Our take on the Away The Weekender

The Away The Weekender is a 38-liter soft-shell nylon duffel built for two- to three-night trips, with a magnetic locking zipper, a padded exterior laptop pocket and a separate shoe compartment. It carries by top handles or a removable, adjustable padded shoulder strap, and it is water-resistant rather than waterproof. At $248 at Nordstrom as of November 5, 2026, it sits at the top of its recent range, so it is not a discount buy right now.

Questions and answers

Is the Away The Weekender carry-on size?
Yes. At 53 x 30 x 24 cm it is built to fit as a carry-on, and the soft shell lets it compress into overhead bins.
Does it fit a laptop?
Yes. There is a padded exterior laptop pocket, so a standard laptop rides outside the main compartment.
Is it waterproof?
No. It is water-resistant nylon, so it handles drizzle and spills but not a downpour or a soaked bag.
Does it have a shoe compartment?
Yes. A separate shoe compartment keeps dirty shoes away from clothes.
Is $248 a good price?
It is the best new price found as of November 5, 2026, but it is at the top of the bag's recent range. Waiting for a sale is reasonable if you are not in a hurry.
Can the shoulder strap be removed?
Yes. The padded shoulder strap is removable and adjustable, and the bag also has top handles.
Where is the Away The Weekender cheapest?
At Nordstrom, for $248.00, as of our latest check.
Where can I buy the Away The Weekender?
3 stores we checked sell it, including Away, Nordstrom, DICK'S Sporting Goods.
