Our JULY Carry On Luggage review has everything you need to know about the features and benefits of this JULY luggage.
Travel has been our lifestyle for many years and during that time we have tested our fair share of travel products, such as suitcases of all sizes, backpacks, duffle bags and carry on luggage, from many of the leading travel product manufacturers. We have been through airports worldwide and one item almost all travellers use in one form, or another is carry on luggage. So, when we were asked to do a JULY carry on luggage review, we were keen to put it to the test.
Choosing the right carry on is so important to maximise the allocated weight and size restrictions. The right carry on will also ensure your personal items are easily accessible during travel and in good condition when you arrive at your destination.
If you are looking for a new carry on one product you should consider is the JULY Carry On luggage range. These stylish and functional cases not only look great but are also well designed and engineered to last the distance no matter what your style of travel.
JULY is a luggage and travel accessories company that have created a range of sustainable longer lasting luggage that is built to last a lifetime and reduce the cycle of single use. They sell direct to the consumer and are based in Victoria Australia.

JULY Luggage review unboxing and first impressions
From the moment our carry on luggage arrived we could tell this is a company that is serious in reducing single use packaging and plastic waste. The case was delivered in a sturdy cardboard box and upon opening you find that the suitcase is packed in a cloth drawstring reusable bag, with no plastic packaging. It may seem a small thing, but we have seen firsthand the environmental impact single use packaging is having worldwide and we fully support companies that are actively trying to reduce waste.
When purchasing a JULY Carry On you can choose from a selection of 9 different colours, we chose the Burgundy. You can also personalise if further by choosing to have lettering of your choice printed on the case which is available in a range of typesets and colours. The personalised lettering is available across the entire range of JULY luggage and is a great way to put your own personal stamp on your bag.
The carry on is a hard case design, with a durable crush-proof German polycarbonate shell and anodised aluminium bumpers. It has a capacity of 46 litres in volume and measures 55cm High x 38cm Wide x 22cm deep.
Although designed as carry on, the luggage is perfect for any style of travel and we have been using it during our road trip throughout regional Queensland Australia. When we fly again, we will definitely be taking it with us.
Features of the JULY Carry On
It is easy to tell that a lot of thought as gone into the design of the JULY Carry On luggage by including under the telescopic handle an ejectable battery power bank. Such a great feature. The battery pack has USB and USB-C ports that allow you to charge your smart devices and is hidden under the telescopic handle. Perfect for charging devices on the go. The other innovative feature is a hidden stain-proof laundry bag. The bag rolls up when not in use and attaches to a clip inside the case.
Internally the case has a zippered storage area along with a Y-Strap compression system to secure the contents.
The case also has an Integrated TSA combination lock and the internal design includes sturdy straps for securing your items and a separate zippered storage area. It has four dual wheels and glides perfectly across surfaces. We are super impressed just how easy it is to manoeuvre the case.
The wheels of cases are often taken for granted when buying carry on luggage, but they are one thing that when they fail cause a lot of pain. JULY have designed their own wheels which are used across the range of JULY bags and are designed to last.
Cost of the JULY Carry On
Like all quality products you normally get what you pay for. During our travels we have used many cheap suitcases and some that were not so cheap. It is fair to say the higher cost good quality luggage with quality construction have in general lasted much longer and we are confident that our Carry on from JULY will last us for many years of travel.
