Road Test

We've reviewed a number of Henty products in the past because they’re not only incredibly cool but also practical, and if you’re a commuter or a traveller this new addition to the lineup is for you. Designed the make travelling even easier, the new two-in-one Henty CoPilot combines an outer garment bag with a spacious grab 20 litre inner utility bag, which you can use together, wrapping the garment bag around the utility bag, or wear separately as a stand-alone backpack. The bag is made from recycled plastic, with semi-rigid vertical ribs defining the diameter of the garment bag; when rolled, it holds clothes beautifully in place to minimising creasing. However the new CoPilot does more than just transport your clothes. It has enough space for both your business and leisure needs, and can carry laptop and other tech devices, two pairs of shoes, a range of toiletries, accessories and your gym gear if need be. And there’s more. This Henty essential has been designed with frequent flyers in mind. A stylish carry-on, the CoPilot allows you to move through airport terminals hands free, and it can be easily stowed in overhead lockers on the aircraft. But this bag is also suited to any mode of transport, including the train and bus, also two wheels, running and walking. In true Henty fashion the CoPilot boasts plenty of features. They include a large external pocket handy for passports, tickets, important documents and keys, a removable laptop pouch, a strong coat hanger with a pivoting hook, comfortable padded adjustable straps with solid aluminium buckles, a leather handle so you can carry it briefcase style, and a high-vis contoured waterproof rain jacket to protect your bag and belongings. And depending on your needs you can also customise the way you travel with a variety of inner bags including an Inner Tube, Dry Bag, Sports Messenger or a Sports Backpack.Like previous Henty incarnations, the CoPilot is yet another terrific multitasking travel bag which not only looks great but is also super durable. Even when filled with your essentials it doesn't feel heavy or awkward to carry, and it is idealfor anyone who finds themselves on the road, or in the air, frequently.
