It's 2026 and clearly, travel has changed. Between tighter TSA regulations, stricter carry-on size requirements, and increasing weight limitations, what you carry—and how efficiently you carry it—matters more than ever. The expectation is clear: one bag that does more, is lightweight, and offers max versatility is the key to stress-free travel.
The BYBBA design team revisited the original Bondi—one of our best-selling styles—with a specific goal: refine it for modern travel constraints without compromising design. The original Bondi was named Best Packable Bag of 2025 by Oprah Daily, setting a clear benchmark, and the Zippy builds on that foundation with a more nuanced, performance-driven approach—focused on access, organization, and ease of movement.
The result is a travel bag engineered to work within today’s realities. It meets TSA-compliant carry-on expectations, offers a lightweight construction that avoids unnecessary bulk, and delivers a full 60L capacity—maximizing what you can bring without overpacking. The integrated luggage pass-through sleeve allows it to sit securely over a standard roller, streamlining movement through the airport from check-in to gate, while its clean silhouette and striped handles ensure it remains distinct and elevated across environments.
FUNCTION, REFINED
Every update is direct and intentional. A double zip-top closure provides secure, efficient access, while two carry options—shoulder strap and tote handles—allow flexibility depending on how you’re moving. A front zip pocket is sized specifically for your phone and essentials, and a side pocket keeps a water bottle within reach. The snap-out pouch construction allows the bag to fold into itself when not in use, with the pouch doubling as a separate, usable piece—making it easy to pack and bring along as an extra bag so you’re never without one when you need it most. Durable metal hardware, finished with BYBBA stamped detailing, reinforces the structure without adding unnecessary weight.
MATERIAL AND STRUCTURE
Constructed from 100% recycled matte ripstop nylon, the Bondi Zippy is lightweight, water-resistant, and built for repeated use. A soft interior lining adds subtle structure, allowing the bag to hold its shape while remaining flexible depending on how it’s packed—an eco-conscious approach that prioritizes performance.
MULTI-USE BY DESIGN
The strength of the Bondi Zippy is in its versatility. It functions as a carry-on travel bag, a weekender, a beach bag, or an everyday tote—adapting without requiring multiple options. Designed to be both functional and fashion-forward, it transitions easily from airport to city to coast, making it equally compelling as a personal essential or a considered gift.
SECURE IN TRANSIT
Not every trip is carry-on only. When you do check your bag, the Bondi Zippy holds up. The double zip closure keeps contents secure, while the durable ripstop construction maintains integrity in transit. Its flexible structure allows it to conform within luggage systems without putting stress on seams or hardware, making it just as effective in cargo as it is in-cabin.
THE BIG TAKEAWAY
BYBBA bags are designed to bring function, design, and versatility together in a way that reflects the way we travel today—lightweight, thoughtfully structured, and adaptable at every stage of the journey.
