Pelican 1535TRVL Wheeled Carry-On Air Case with Lid Organizer and Packing Cubes (Oxblood)
Key Features
  • Watertight, Dust, and Crushproof Case
  • Made of Super-Light Polymer
  • Lid Organizer and Packing Cubes
  • ABS Double-Throw Latches
Combining strength and lightness, the 1535TRVL Wheeled Carry-On Air Case with Lid Organizer and Packing Cubes in oxblood from Pelican is watertight, crushproof, dustproof, and optimized for travel. For travel by air, Pelican has aggregated available airline rules for maximum overhead and check-in dimensions with the goal of creating a case that conforms to their requirements. Of course, there will always be exceptions, so it's wise to contact your carrier before departing.

Your 1535TRVL case is made of a super-light, proprietary HPX polymer (with honeycomb structural elements) that is up to 40% lighter than most other Pelican polymers. This confidence-inspiring design has been drop-tested on concrete on all sides and corners while loaded with gear. The case is also tested with a 28-pound steel dart dropped from a height of three feet, submerged for 30 minutes at a depth of 3.3 feet, and the wheels are roll tested over 1000 yards with loads at 5 mph.

The case has ABS double-throw latches that accept a user-supplied padlock, a watertight O-ring gasket, an automatic purge valve, and stainless steel hasp protectors. Users will appreciate the conic-curved lid shape, the rubber overmolded handles, and the extending trolley handle. For easy case identification, a removable polycarbonate card holder may be placed on the front or side of the case.

Pelican 1535 Air Reviews

Durable quality

By Charles

The Pelican 1535 Air hard case is very well made without too much weight. With a little care in planning and measuring the Trekpak organizing system works nicely to protect and organize my digital SLR and equipment. The Trekpak system comes with a well designed and user friendly cutting tool. I had plenty of material to organize my case with some left over. Wheels and carrying handles are all durable while the overall size meets airline specs for placement in overhead bins. This is a sound piece of equipment. I'd buy it again.

Purchased after my previous carryon broke….yet again (3 in two years). So far it works great and is just enough space for a carry one, next will be a larger version as a checked bag.

Is the bottom padding sufficient?

Is the bottom padding sufficient?
Asked by: Victor
For all intents and purposes, the bottom layer of foam/padding is sufficient for day-to-day use and extended use during travel as both carry-on and in some small flight situations as a gate-checked hard case (but as we all know check-in is still typically not a good idea).

Asked by: Matthew
The Pelican 1535AirWF Wheeled Carry-On Hard Case with Foam Insert is not wide enough for that lens. Specially with the hood on and if you plenty of foam to protect it during shipping. I would recommend a case that is 9 inches wide or more.
