These 10 B éis Weekender Bag Dupes Will Take Your Travel Game to the Next Level

You know her, you love her, you can't enter a single airport without seeing her: it's the ever-popular The Weekender bag from Béis. The oversized shoulder bag has had globetrotting girlies in a chokehold since 2018, when Béis—the It travel brand founded by actress Shay Mitchell—popped onto the market. Even six years later, The Weekender is still a travel staple, continuously making waves on TikTok and being seen on planes, trains, automobiles, and every kind of transportation situation in between (no, really—it's inescapable).

But I'll tell ya: it's for good reason. The bag may be designed for packing light (you know, weekend trips and all), but it packs a LOT. With more pockets than you'll know what to do with, a trolley passthrough that converts into another pocket, a key leash, and a zip-around bottom compartment, you can fit a ton of stuff inside, and keep it organized to boot.

Several other travel brands have dropped bags boasting similar bells and whistles to The Weekender, and lucky for you, I rounded up a buncha the best here. There's nothing like the real thing, ofc, but sometimes you wanna see some alternatives, and I get that.

So, read on to find the very best Béis Weekender dupes on the internet—dare you not to hit *add to cart.*

The Weekender Bag

Here it is—the OG. It's roomy and lightweight, meaning that any self-proclaimed overpacker (ahem, guilty as charged) will be pleasantly surprised with the space they've got to work with. You can also carry it so many different ways: using the shorter handles, with the longer shoulder strap, or by strapping it on top of your suitcase via the trolley handle passthrough that also doubles as a pocket when not in use, BTW.

Speaking of pockets, there are three interior ones, plus a padded laptop sleeve. But the best part, IMHO, is the bottom compartment. It's separate from the rest of the bag and fully unzips so you can stash toiletries, shoes, wet bathing suits, or really anything you don't want touching (or accidentally exploding on) your belongings in the main compartment. Oh, and did I mention it comes in eight chic colorways!?

Glowing review: "I got this bag to study abroad in Europe and it has worked wonders for me. The bottom is perfect for clothes, shoes, or books (in my case), and the top has space for many things and a great laptop sleeve. I have shoulder problems from previous bags, and this strap is amazing and comfortable. This bag kept me moving through TSA quickly and made traveling abroad easy."

Weekender Bag

Like the Béis Weekender, this bag has had its fair share of viral fame on TikTok. That's because it has many of the same features as the original, including a padded laptop sleeve, a trolley sleeve, a bottom compartment (which is the main attraction, at least to me), and a handy cosmetics bag. Plus, if you love having options as much as I do, you'll be happy to hear that this weekender comes in two sizes—17 inches, which can fit under an airplane seat, and 20 inches, which is more of a carry-on size—as well as two colors, beige and black.

Glowing review: "This bag is great quality! It comes with a very comfortable, removable strap and a small makeup bag. The bag is made with a thick material and has so many amazing pockets! If you are worried about the quality or the color, worry no more! I got the beige, and it is beautiful!"

Stevyn Duffel Bag

There's nothing like a weekender bag that's cute and functional, right? Right. That's why I love the Stevyn duffel from Calpak—it's lightweight, just the right size to be an airline personal item, and has a roomy main compartment with interior pockets for efficient storage. And, of course, a separate bottom compartment for shoes or other belongings. The bag also comes in 11 different colors and two larger sizes, both of which feature wheels instead of the separate shoe compartment.

Glowing review: "[I love] the material, the durability, the size, and the depth of the compartments. I can fit two days' worth of clothes in the bottom alone. As someone who has size 10 shoes, it’s hard to find compartments that have enough space for them and don’t make the bag bulky. This is awesome."

Travel Duffel Bag

The beauty of a great weekender bag is that it can be used for almost anything—think: a trip to the gym, an overnight stay at your situationship's, or a commute into work with an extra set of clothes and shoes (for post-office drinks, obv)—and this one is no exception. Available in 29 colors and three different sizes, the options with this cutie are endless (much like its storage space).

There are two outer side pockets to hold things like water bottles or umbrellas, plus a large front pocket, a zippered back pocket, and of course, a trusty bottom compartment to help keep some separation amongst your belongings.

Glowing review: "This bag is amazing—one of the best purchases I've ever made on Amazon. The quality of this bag is higher than I expected. It's thick, water-resistant, and includes two shoe bags (holding four pairs in total), plus a miniature bag for makeup. It also has many pockets, and a port for your portable charger."

City Adventurer Duffel Bag

While we know that lululemon makes great activewear—I'm an Align leggings girlie for life, IYKYK—but they also make great travel bags. According to their website, this duffel is made for "work-to-workout transitions and week-to-weekend expeditions," meaning that it has range, baby, range. With a spacious interior and easy-to-access exterior pockets—including a padded outer laptop sleeve—you'll be able to fit far more than just your workout gear in this weekender bag, trust me.

Glowing review: "Holds a lot more than it looks like it does. I can fit my workout gear, laptop, water bottle, and makeup bag as well as a couple of notebooks. Great side pockets (that zip!) for my keys, lip gloss, and anything else I need handy. I used to have two bags and now I just use this one."

Weekender Duffel Bag With Shoe Compartment

If you're looking for an inexpensive weekender that still provides great value (and great storage), stop scrolling. This gem has everything you could ever want in a duffel—sturdy handles, a padded laptop compartment, an interior waterproof compartment, plenty of pockets, and a separate bottom compartment for shoes and other dirties. It's lightweight, meets most major airline carry-on requirements, and has multiple carrying options. And, a major bonus, it comes with a leakproof toiletry bag, so you can store your cosmetics separately.

Glowing review: "Excellent quality for the price! As good as the expensive name brands. This bag is sturdy and well-constructed. I love all the features—the shoe compartment, the pockets, the look, and that it fits over your suitcase handle. It is perfect for travel and holds a ton."

Travel Weekender Bag

There's nothing I love more than a matching set, especially when it comes in chic luggage form. This weekender pairs with a crossbody and toiletry bag, meaning that you get three small pieces of coordinating luggage for the price of one—in other words, it's a steal. The weekender also has a shoe compartment, trolley passthrough, adjustable straps, and extra pockets inside—so, basically all of the most covetable features.

Glowing review: "This travel bag set is durable and trendy, with space that I don’t even know what to do with! I can fit two pairs of shoes in the bottom—plus all of my toiletries, and countless pairs of shorts, pants, and shirts—and still have space for whatever else I pick up in my travels. The fabric and leather are incredibly durable and worth the money. I even got my mother to purchase a set for herself."

Revive Nylon Duffel Bag

Quince is one of those brands that feels inescapable—they make your most-trusted sweaters, your everyday bath towels, your go-to sheets, and—surprise, surprise—your new favorite weekender bag. The Revive duffel is stylish and sleek, with spacious exterior pockets that can hold anything from your keys to your iPad to your headphones (they're so big—and water resistant—that they pretty much do the same job as the bottom compartment on the Beis Weekender, FWIW). The strap is both removable and adjustable, so you'll be satisfied no matter your carrying preference. I also love that the bag is made of water-resistant recycled nylon from 25 water bottles, so you'll feel stylish and sustainable.

Glowing review: "I bought this for brief overnight trips—just one or two nights—and it’s perfect. Everything I wanted to pack fit in nicely. The big inner zippered pocket fit all of my toiletries, and the roomier outer pockets held a ton of random things, like a charger and bottle opener."

Expandable Weekender Bag

If you're looking to save a few bucks on your next travel accessory, this inexpensive weekender is a great, airplane-friendly option for those ballin' on a budget. Made from water-resistant nylon, this lightweight bag can pack a ton of stuff inside, and includes a zippered bottom compartment that can hold up to three pairs of shoes. If you find yourself not needing that extra bottom space, that's totally fine—the compartment can zip on and off, so no precious space is ever wasted.

Glowing review: "I recently took my new weekender bag on a trip, and it exceeded all my expectations! The bag effortlessly fits all my essentials and more, making it ideal for both short getaways and longer trips. I particularly love the convenience of being able to slide it onto my luggage handle for easy carrying while navigating airports. The durability of the materials gives me confidence that it will withstand the rigors of travel for years to come."

Canvas Weekender Bag

Well-designed and versatile, this bag is just itching for you to take it on a jaunt across Europe. The seven different pockets and compartments make organizing—and most importantly, fitting—all of your belongings feel like second nature (even for those who are agents of chaos, like myself). Unlike the Béis weekender, this bag is made from canvas and has brown faux leather accents, so if that's more your aesthetic, you've officially hit the jackpot.

Glowing reviews: "I love how solid this bag is! It holds several days' worth of outfits too! The zippered pouch on the bottom gives plenty of room for shoes. The straps comfortably fit over my shoulder or arm, with a long strap for cross-body carrying if preferred. This bag was easily my best Amazon purchase ever. It exceeds all expectations for durability, practicality, and adorableness! A real gem."
