YETI Carry-Ons

Frequently Asked Questions

• What makes the YETI Crossroads 22" Luggage so durable for rugged travel?

  The Crossroads 22" uses 700D TuffSkin™ nylon that’s water-, abrasion-, and chemical-resistant with a matte finish that hides scuffs and is hose-off cleanable. It pairs a PU-coated GroundControl™ base, molded rounded corners and corner bumpers, reinforced grab handles, and beefy water-resistant YKK zippers for long-term field use.
• Will the Crossroads 22" Luggage fit as a carry-on for most airlines?

  The Crossroads 22" is sized at about 22" tall x 14–14.4" wide x 9–11.25" deep (expandable) to press airline carry-on limits while maximizing pack volume. Most domestic carriers accept that footprint, but you should check your specific airline’s overhead-bin dimensions and pack a trial load to confirm.
• How does the Crossroads 22" Luggage compare to the Crossroads 27L Backpack?

  The 22" roller is optimized for wheeled airport travel and maximum organized volume, while the Crossroads 27L backpack is a soft-sided, carry-oriented option with contoured EVA foam shoulder straps for all-day carry and a dedicated fit for 13–15" laptops. The backpack integrates Rambler® bottle pockets and a luggage pass-through sleeve to ride on the roller, so choose the roller for baggage-heavy trips and the 27L for last-mile mobility or mixed urban/outdoor days.
• How is organization and tech storage handled in the Crossroads 22" Luggage?

  The roller opens clamshell-style with zippered interior pockets, compression straps, and packing-cube compatibility for neat organization of clothes and gear. YETI’s system is designed to work with their packing cubes, and the Crossroads line generally emphasizes easy access pockets for cords and small items; the 27L backpack variant specifically includes a dedicated laptop sleeve for 13–15" devices.
• What’s the best way to clean and care for TuffSkin™ nylon, wheels, and zippers?

  TuffSkin™ wipes or hoses clean easily and the DWR treatment causes water to bead off—use mild soap and water for stubborn grime and avoid harsh chemicals or bleach. Keep the Precision Glide™ 360° wheels and telescoping handle free of sand and debris by wiping them periodically, and clear grit from YKK zippers to maintain smooth operation.
