M&S shoppers praise waterproof travel bag perfect for weekend trips


Warnings for rain and thunderstorms have been issued for parts of the UK and if you have a weekend getaway somewhere, shoppers at Marks and Spencer are racing to buy a travel bag perfect for all weather.

The Rubberised Weekend Bag from the M&S Collection is a 2-in-1 travel holdall that can fit a weekend trip-load of clothing without compromising on style and quality. The fabric is shower resistant so jet-setters don’t have to worry about the weather whether it’s rain or shine.

Measuring 35 x 78 x 26cm in size, the bag has one big compartment to fit all the essentials and clothing and a smaller zipper pocket for personal belongings like passports, rings or a wallet. One shopper used the bag for a three-day trip and was impressed by how much he managed to pack.

“I bought this for a three-day trip abroad to avoid check-in luggage, managed to pack everything I needed with a size for airline carry-on, superb! Sturdy and easy to clean,” he said.

Another shopper said the durable material was worth the money, adding: “Men’s weekend bag is very roomy and sturdy. Wipeable so easy to clean. Handy pockets. Also great for gym etc.”

The bag comes with a detachable shoulder strap to swap between hand-carry and shoulder bag styles. The double zip fastening can keep your holiday essentials and souvenirs safe and dry.

If you struggle to fit everything in, it’s worth getting compressible packing cubes to save you more space. You can get a set of four from Amazon for £29.99.

Comparing the M&S weekender to other under £30 bag options, shoppers said the material is sturdy enough to use on multiple trips. A woman purchased the bag for her husband and said it “looks more expensive than it is”.

And a dad shared: “Really happy with my bag, well made, good size for a long weekend, looks really good. Bought black one for my son and khaki one for me. Great value for money.”

The Rubberised Weekend Bag is available to buy from M&S online for £60 and if you are looking for an affordable option, the NRW lightweight and expandable travel duffle bag could be one for you. It’s £25.69 and comes with different colours but it’s not made with soft rubber.

Moulyan’s sports bag is a versatile three-in-one backpack, shoulder bag and hand-carry that comes with a separate shoe compartment. More than 2,000 shoppers left four- and five-star reviews on Amazon however some said it might not last long due to the fabric.
