If you’re a frequent traveler on a budget, you’ve probably come across the eBags Mother Lode Weekender Convertible. It’s a popular bag from the Colorado-based online retailer known for selling travel bags and accessories. As its name suggests, the Mother Lode is built to pack everything you need for travel without a trip to baggage claim. And, eBags boasts, it “packs like a suitcase, carries like a backpack.”
We’ve been testing the eBags Mother Lode Weekender Convertible for two weeks in Detroit and Minneapolis, and we’ve got all the nitty-gritty details you’re looking for.
Overall, the eBags Mother Lode Weekender Convertible offers a handy list of features, but they’re not delivered in the most cohesive manner. We think the organization is pretty much spot-on and we like how sturdy the bag feels, but the pros mostly end there. The materials are nothing to write home about and people who have even a slightly wider frame will find the straps uncomfortable, as the buckles will likely stick into their lower back. We think this could be a good option if you're on a budget, but there are comparable choices out there for similar (and even lower) prices.
