I love the Luka tote! I now have it in 3 colors and bought one for my daughter! I'm obsessed! The website can be a little finicky so be patient

Hi Olga! Thanks for your feedback. As stated on the product page for the Terra Laptop Backpack, it fits a 14" laptop. Due to the fact that it was purchased at a sale price, it was final sale only, and ineligible for returns or exchanges. We apologize if there was any confusion!

BEWARE international orders from Calpak

I would never purchase from Calpak again especially as a Canadian customer. There are no physical stores so your first purchase is on blind trust with a non returnable final sale for Canadian orders. It was my first time ordering from them. The mini diaper bag is much too small for practical use at a price tag of $270. It now cannot be refunded even to purchase a larger size. Additionally they have no in person customer service and is email only. This is a regrettable first purchase and never will I purchase from this company again.

Hi Jane! We're deeply sorry, but due to high shipping costs, customs delays, and the difficulty of processing items across borders, all orders shipped outside of the US are final sale, and not eligible for returns and exchanges. While we do only offer email and chat support, our team is readily available to help answer any sizing or product questions prior to purchasing!

Appalling service - CALPAK

I was so excited to receive my CALPAK cosmetic case, however I realised it was much bigger than anticipated, and so I asked to return it for a smaller one. However they do not accept international returns from the UK even though I would be covering the cost. I was not made aware of this before purchasing. Appalling customer service. I emailed them and received two replies informing me that it is written in the returns policy section of their website. Who actually reads this before needing to return something?! I have never before encountered a company that has this policy. I feel as if they are happy to take my money and could not care less that I am extremely unhappy.

Terrible Experience at CALPAK

My girlfriend’s package was marked as delivered, but when we checked it was missing / stolen.

We reached out to CALPAK and their response is complete nonsense. They sent her a message saying they won’t provide a refund or replacement because the delivery company provided proof of delivery.

They pretty much told her to take a hike nicely. Absolute bull crap! This is how you handle customer service?

Prioritizing yourself over the customer, no matter the situation, is unacceptable. You should always make the customer feel happy.

Horrible company, and I will not recommend them to anyone. Stick with Beis or Monos, they actually care about their customers.

Do not buy this bag if you need it to fit over the handle of your carry on suite case. The space is too narrow.

Really not worth it

I’m writing this while traveling. The bag I purchased is just so uncomfortable. I usually use backpacks and thought I’d try something new. I’m suffering through this entire trip. Just buy a backpack. It was so expensive and I’m thinking of just leaving it somewhere . The bag itself weighs a bit and with things in it it’s just terribly uncomfortable

I had problems with my calpak stitching…

I had problems with my calpak stitching a few months after I got. They sent a replacement but then I had the same issues with the stitching coming apart. In addition, now my straps are tearing away from the pack. I don’t overpack the bag. I carry just my standard laptop and charger. For the price of these bags they do not last.

Great 1st experience!

I have not used the luggage yet but the luggage is beautiful and shipped fast. The ease of purchase and savings offered were appreciated.

Calpak is AMAZING!

Calpak is AMAZING!
Best company I've had for bags, luggage, you name it.
Not only can you feel good about your purchase because they take discarded plastic bottles and make them into their products, but the vibrate colors don’t fade or discolor, what I thought who tear or snag seems indestructible, and I get SO many compliments!
I only travel with with my Calpak products! Both everyday sling and backpack! 😍😍

Cal pack junkie…

I bought my first bag from Cal pack and absolutely love it. The Luca bag is the perfect compliment to my carry-on luggage. I love it so much. I bought it in another color.

Good customer support

Super awesome, I have the black duffel. Although there is some wear on the handle straps. The shoulder strap snapped... but they sent me a new one completely free. Awesome company so far, no complaints

I have two bags

I have two bags. The second bag which is a backpack. The strap is coming out from the seem. Yes defective. I got as a gift. I do not have a receipt. Calpak and I have been going back and forth with about 25 emails. They are not willing for me to ship back defective one so they can see it. It is less than a year old. ALL they care about is getting the receipt. What a joke this company is. I would NEVER order from this horrible company again and cheaply made products. Do the right thing was all I was asking. What a joke.

Sent me a foul-smelling, used bag. Possibly deleted my complaint review.

I ordered their yoga mat gym bag a while back and right away noticed that the bag is loose and almost flimsy, like it had been stretched out as a used bag by the previous customer who returned it, even though Calpak sold it to me at full price as though brand new.

I especially noticed a DISGUSTING STENCH in the bag like old, wet gym socks all over the inside and in the separated shoe compartment. I even tried to mask this by throwing in a loose piece of paper sprayed with perfume to keep inside. Did not help.

Calpak responded to my bad review and offered to either refund or replace the bag. I made sure to be clear that I wanted an actually brand new bag, not a used one, and that I was not going to pay the return shipping fee to send back their filthy product. Interesting thing is that Calpak did not bother make any effort to clarify that "No, we do NOT resell used items as brand new."

I now cannot find my original review on their website where I made this complaint several months ago, so I wonder if they took it down. Especially when it comes to items like gym equipment and certain clothing, customers have a right to know that they are being sold used items if a company such as Calpak is going to demand full-price payment.

Buyers beware.

Very impressed with aftercare

Bought my suitcase from TK Maxx (UK) a few years ago — I use it to do art markets and general travel, it's been well and truly used and abused. The only thing that has worn out are the wheels, I contacted CALPAK recently as I heard they replace them, and they do! Once I sent pictures, to confirm the model, they sent me a set of brand new wheels all the way from Los Angeles, free of charge! They wheels were easy to swap over. I wish more companies were responsible like this so our things don't end up in landfill when they still have life left.

Calpak🩷

My very first purchase was back in April 2022, that was for the haven laptop tote bag in black. Since then I've been loving the luka collection (chocolate always!!) Not only does the duffel bag look beautiful, it holds all my essentials. I have multiple sizes and use the smaller ones for everything. Traveling out of state, or to the grocery store. Gives me peace of mind. :)

I absolutely love all of my Calpak bags. I own two clear cosmetics cases (small and medium), the Luka duffle and the everything cube. They are designed well, come in great color, and the quality is amazing.
