This was definitely a packed-full trip…..between the NYC Gift show at the Javits center and countless meetings with existing and new vendors. We are going to start carrying fashion accessories on eBags in the very near future, so we met with lots of new brands. Wait until you see some of the jewelry, scarves, sunglasses and watches we are going to be carrying…TO DIE FOR!!!

Besides being a bit chilly, the weather was perfect…this is very rare for February in New York.

Be sure to check back for more pics from NYC and from the Magic and Project tradeshows in Vegas next week!

eBags in People Magazine

I just got back from the store to pick up a copy of the latest People magazine. Why? Because our very own eBags Weekender eTech Convertible is featured in it. Look for the article in the January 25 issue on page 104 titled “3 Things to Know About Airport Security”. Travel Channel’s host Samantha Brown gives an overview of the new rules and the staff at Fodors’ travel guides recommends the Weekender Convertible as its recommended carry-on.

The eTech Weekender Convertible is a carry-on bag that converts into a backpack via hideaway shoulder straps. This bag not only meets most carry-on requirements, but it also comes with a lifetime warranty and has been highly rated by eBags customers. It also includes so many useful features that I couldn’t possibly list them all. So instead, I’ll let Product Designer Bernard Majeau show you in this video demonstration.

The eBags eTech Weekender Convertible is available in four colors: burnt orange, jet black, red, and sapphire blue. Get yours today before they sell out.
