Mirage 360°: the world's slimmest foldable carry-on

GearAugust 20267 min read

A cabin trolley that folds down to almost nothing sounds like something every traveller would want — and that's exactly what the Mirage 360°™ delivers. A full hard-shell carry-on that collapses to just 12 cm thick, then unfolds into a rigid 40-litre case in seconds.

The short answer: the Mirage 360°™ is a cabin-size folding trolley that packs down to a 12 cm slab — the slimmest in the world. It weighs 2.6 kg, holds 40 litres, and is built from rigid polycarbonate with 360° spinner wheels, a built-in TSA lock and waterproof zippers. Folded, it disappears into a closet, under a bed, or inside a bigger suitcase.

What is the Mirage 360°?

The Mirage 360°™ was designed around a single idea: save space without compromising on comfort or durability. Between trips it folds flat; when you need it, it opens into a full hard-shell trolley with the strength, wheels and lock of a conventional case.

Since launch it has collected three international honours from TRAVEL magazine: the 2025 Travel Innovation Award, the Global Travel Design Award, and Smart Travel Gear Winner.

Why a foldable suitcase changes everything

The biggest advantage of a folding case shows up between trips, when it's at home. A regular carry-on hogs 20–25 cm of depth in a closet or storage room. The Mirage 360°™ folds to 12 cm and slips into a wardrobe, under the bed — or inside a larger suitcase.

Fly out with it folded inside your checked bag. Fly home with a second carry-on full of everything you bought.

For small apartments, full closets, and anyone whose storage space ran out years ago, that's not a gimmick — it's the whole point.

Who is it for?

Frequently asked questions

How thin is it really when folded?

12 cm — about the depth of a shoebox lid. That's roughly half the storage depth of a conventional carry-on.

Is folding a durability compromise?

Unfolded, the Mirage locks into a rigid polycarbonate shell. It rolls, locks and protects like a fixed hard case — the folding happens at engineered hinge lines, not weak points.

Will it pass as cabin baggage on low-cost airlines?

It's built to the common 55 × 40 × 20 cm cabin envelope. Airline policies vary, so check your carrier's current limits before you fly.

What colours does it come in?

Pink, turquoise, sky blue, black and camel yellow — see them all on the product page.

The short version

The Mirage 360°™ folds to a world-record 12 cm, weighs 2.6 kg, holds 40 litres, and gives up nothing on wheels, lock or shell. If storage space — at home or inside another suitcase — has ever decided which luggage you buy, this is the case that removes the question.
