Holding back on those gap year plans because of the thought of struggling to carry heavy luggage around? If you are thinking of a gap year, a reliable suitcase to support you on your journey around the world is essential.  The Live Luggage Sports Bag has an innovative design with a detachable weekend bag and rucksack which can be unzipped from the main case.  They are the ideal aircraft carry-on items and also perfect to keep more valuable items such as cameras with you on a coach or train. On arrival, the handy detachable zip on/off rucksack is an easy and practical solution for taking everyday items such as goggles, sunscreen and energy snacks onto the beach. The detachable weekend bag can hold enough gear for one or two night overnight trips.

Live Luggage’s unique multi-bag suitcase with ergonomic handle lets you travel to your heart’s content! The ergonomic handle puts 85% of the weight onto its two big wheels, allowing you to walk around freely through airports, train stations and on to your resort with ease without strain on your arms, back or legs. The Sports Bag is great for a student’s gap year - plenty of room for all necessities and even more and the Live Locator™ ID system helps return the case should it be lost or mislaid.

There are two versions of the Sports Bag: the AG model (with Anti-Gravity handle) and the PA (power assisted) version with Anti-Gravity handle and power-assisted wheels, which run off a re-chargeable built-in battery – sensors in the handle automatically activate pan-cake motors in the wheels when slopes or kerbs are detected, taking all the strain out of walking uphill.  The AG handle is height adjustable and glides back flat against the back of the case when stationery.

Live Luggage is a British company specialising in making the stress of heavy luggage a walk in the park, or even around the world!
