When it comes to travel gear, Eagle Creek are redefining our expectations with their new EC Lync™ System. This 2016 limited edition rolling bag collection features a full size but ultra-lightweight travel accessory that can be converted into a backpack that is even lighter (making it perfect for overnight trips). The revolutionary patent pending EC Lync™ System actually disassembles and stows away in its own stuff bag when not in use, making it great for infrequent or minimalist travelers too. Male Standard test drove the 22 on a recent domestic flight. Here is what we thought!

EC Lync™ System 22
Product Review: Eagle Creek Limited Edition EC Lync™ SystemThe 22 is the second system in the EC Lync™. It is perfect for flying domestic and meets carry-on requirements at 4-9 lbs with just over 2600 cubic feet of interior space. This is bag can carry a lot but is crazy lightweight. The EC Lync™ System features the 20, a smaller version of the 22, and goes up to the 26 and 29, which are ideal for full-size luggage (the latter being something we would take for extended destination travels to Austrailia or the like). The EC Lync™ 22 comes in three attractive colors – orange, gray, and blue. All of which stand out on the carousel.
Male Standard Verdict
What sets the Limited Edition EC Lync™ System apart from other travel collections is that the bags can be broken down into different travel accessories as needed. We love how the 22 becomes a stylish backpack that affords you to go hands-free when navigating the hands on airport terminals. If you are like us and refuse to travel without your laptop, tablet, camera, phone, wallet, passport, etc., the 22 will be your new BFF.
It keeps everything close to hand and protected. Patent-pending technology gives this bag ultra-collapsibility and disassembly for easy storage and flexible travel options. From the small stuff sack to a full-size travel bag, you can stow it, roll it, or carry it to your next adventure. We honestly couldn’t ask for more!
