Notes from Sarah Giblin, RiutBag designer:
New RiutBag release date:
End July 2025 - leaves UK warehouse 28 July 2025
USA customers: please note RiutBags are hand made in China. Please take this into account in the light of your country's current tariff policy.
12 June 2025: The quality of the production is looking fantastic today at the factory. Join me online to see the production in progress: https://linktr.ee/RiutBag
June 2025: Sorry to delay my shipping date by 13 days. The freight shipping schedule has changed. That means my shipment of RiutBags will leave here 13 days later planned. For that reason, we're most likely to start shipping the new designs to you from my UK warehouse on 28 July 2025.
24 February 2025: Prototype 1 and 2 are complete. Prototype 2 fits the sizer but I'd like to shave off a little more here and there so it fits even better. I'm testing RiutBag Cube prototype 2 on Ryanair soon. You can see my latest videos here: https://linktr.ee/RiutBag I'm happy the core design and new features help you, your belongings and your laptop travel secure and fit well on your Ryanair flight. We're starting prototype 3 now.
9 February 2025 I've added my sketches of the Cube so you understand the design. I'll add my own photos of the physical prototypes as we complete them. Once we have the final product, I'll add professional photos. Thanks for coming along the journey with the Cube!
Fly Smart: Beat Airline Fees Every Time
RiutBag Cube is designed to fit perfectly within budget airline baggage sizer limits 40x20x25cm especially Ryanair’s "small bag" policy. Head to the airport knowing you've got the right size bag, even when it's packed full. Glide past the bag sizer at the gate, climb onboard and enjoy the flight to your destination every time.
No extra costs, no awkward moments—just seamless boarding with a bag that meets airline rules and keeps your essentials safe.
