Customer Reviews Eagle Creek Undercover™ Money Belt

I have been traveling weekly two to four flights a week with the Tarmac 22 for over three years. Fantastic bag - great packing space, especially with the packing system - and unbelievably durable. My bag is now filthy so I started shopping for a replacement only to find the updated model does not have the same duel compartments in the lid. New model looks less functional than the prior design. Why the change? Please bring back the duel compartments in the lid!!!

I love this money belt. It fits around my waist very well and under my tops. It doesn't show at all. It's very comfortable.

I bought this money belt for foreign travel, but I found it to be very practical for using when I take long walks locally or for walks on the beach.

I recently spent a week in Italy, where I wore this money belt every day, putting it on before getting dressed in the morning and not taking it off until bedtime. The weather was very hot, but in spite of this, I was able to forget I was wearing the money belt. It was incredibly comfortable. It easily fits a U.S. passport and all the extra cash I wanted to keep hidden. I'm small, so it was too wide to stay flat and invisible across my front, but it fit perfectly across the small of my back. It was comfortable next to my skin and invisible even under fitted clothing. The fabric on the side that touches the body is soft and wicks perspiration away nicely, and the buckle is small enough not to dig into the waist. I would recommend this item to anyone.

The moneybelt was very lightweight and comfy. I would definitely recommend.

Size is important...But the organization is paramount.I use it for everyday car & airline travel. The organization is better than just about any case I've used.

This bags has great capacity, is easy to pack, and is the perfect carry-on size.Fits in most overheads easily and packs perfect with cubes and folders.

I have used Eagle Creek products for many years. I have traveled around the planet many times and love the fact that I trust these products. The guarantee is amazing! My ex decided to take out her anger on a Tarmac 22 with a razor and when I called Eagle Creek about a repair they took the damaged bag and replaced it without question - am I hooked on their products or what?

Tarmac 22--a solidly built, well-organized travel carry-on. Quality of components is top-notch, no problem with breakage after 2 years of use. Fixed compartments (shoe pouch, outer/inner compartments, etc) well thought-out. Wheels have taken a fair amount of abuse on cobblestone streets and show no sign of failure. Expandable size has saved me some hassle on many trips after buying more than I had planned. Extras like lockable zips are a nice touch. Supposed to be within *most* carry-on size requirements and I've yet to have a problem but you may wish to compare with Tarmac 20 as some airlines are instituting smaller/more strict carry-on requirements. Definitely worth the price and the EC lifetime guarantee for this series will have you covered forever. Great bag.

Got my Tarmac 22 based on the testimonials on this site. Went back and forth between several luggage choices, but it was the lifetime warranty and organizational features that drew me towards Eagle Creek. This is my first Eagle Creek bag and I can tell that it won't be my last. Used it on a flight to Beijing and after seeing how well it handled all my belongings as well as souvenirs from the trip (and there were a lot), I can honestly recommend it to all my friends. Planning to use it for all my upcoming domestic flights as well (at least once a quarter) and I'll most likely be buying the pack-it cubes suggested for it in the near future.

This is, without a doubt, the best designed and ergonomically friendly travel bag. It is the largest carry-on that will fit in the overhead bin of all aircraft- absent the commuters.

I have always been a Samsonite fan, but the Tarmac 22 is by far the best piece of luggage I've owned! After seeing them used by a friend, I also purchased some of the cubes and a folder.I am amazed at the amount of things I can fit in the bag. Looking forward to adding a tote bag soon.

This wonderful piece of Eagle Creek luggage is my favorite, with the mulitiple inside zip compartments and great look and color, (mine is light green), but unfortunately, it does notpass the carry on luggage requirements of many foreign Flight requirements. I have been stopped multiple times in Europe and Asia when it did not fit into the metal box that is used as a standard. While it measures as if it should fit, it doesn't fit into thesetight fitting metal test frames. Thus, I've had to argue, fight, and try to get my important documents on board, even once being escorted through security via a back route. Otherwise, I've had to re-check the bag through baggage, when a fee must then be incurred with many airlines.I would re-classify this bag, as not being regulation for carry on. It fits perfectly in the overhead bins, but this argument does not hold with the government flight regulations.I am looking at downsizing, unfortunately, to your 20Tarmac.A 21Tarmac could be aperfect fit. Keep up your great designs and colors Tracey

I fly 40 - 45 weeks per year. After years of purchasing 'disposable' luggage that lasted less than 6 months, I found the Eagle Creek Tarmac 22. 1.5 years later, it's a bit dirty but in great shape. I have plenty of room to pack for 4 days on the road, and the Pack-it solutions insure my clothes remain wrinkle free! It's dependable, versatile, sturdy, and light. It is PERFECT.

This suitcase has been with us all over Europe and the US.It holds a Ton, and with the cubes, anything can be found quickly.It has spaces for everything, and if packed properly it will hold a month or more of travel clothing, accessories, and maps.For the 2-3 day trip it holds all your coats, computer, shoes and things we tend to take on short trips, so you have just one bag to carry into the 4 Seasons or Embassy Suites. I hope they never stop making this suitcase!

After having Eagle Creek a suitcase/backpack for 10 or 12 years, I decided to replace it.Not because it was damaged or worn, but because I wanted something with wheels for those non-adventure trips and I knew Eagle Creek is the best.My old suitcase (World Traveler), has been all over the world, visiting at least 10 different countries plus lots of trips within the U.S. and it still is in good shape.They are literally made like a tank!Plus they hold lots of stuff, are well balanced and good looking.My new suitcase, The Tarmac 22, is a joy to pull through the airport and holds enough stuff for a week, easily.Plus it can be carried on the plane.What more could you want?

What a great bag! I've gone on 3 trips this year with this bag. It easily holds a weeks worth of clothing (OK, I'm a pretty good packer), and most important, holds it securely. After a trumatic incident with underwear strewn over the baggage belt because of a broken zipper on my last suitcase, I really appreciate the secure interior. Rolls nicely, too.

I chose this bag over Tumi and TravelPro and could not be happier with my decision.I am I bought it first and foremost because of the advertised light weight, and it is indeed light.Yet the absence of mass in NO WAY makes detracts from the bag s ruggedness.It feels really solid, never gave me any reason to worry that it was going to break, rip, or fall apart.But then, my World Journey (ca. 1994) is still in excellent shape, so I am not surprised!The way it opens in two like an oyster takes a little getting used to, but the added organization this provides is very helpful.Pack-Its fit just right, which pleased me in a sick sort of way.The front top pocket works great for handy 3-1-1 access.I have not had to check it in yet, which was as hoped - as others have noted, it fits narrow-wise in the overheads of mid-size planes if you load it in top first.Have to see how the international travel goes, though.(Truth be told, the dimensions at the widest points are non-conforming, particularly the depth of the bag near the bottom, which is closer to the 11 inch advertised as the expanded size rather than 9.5 inches.So you ll be unable to fit it into the test box at most check-in counters.But assuming you do not go through those, you will probably be just fine if flying within the US.)Also, the No Matter What warranty puts this bag head and shoulders above the competition!Thanks as ever, Eagle Creek, for making a truly outstanding bag!

Best products I ever owned.These bags have been around the world a couple of times and they hold up and I never have to worry that it is my clothes coming around on the baggage carousol.Please keep up the quality.It is the best and I recommend it to my other travel road warriors!

As a soft adventure tour leader in Mexico, I have the need for bags that can handle a variety of situations from airports to train stations to dirt roads and even some rocky trails. My gear from other companies never could hack it, so I bought the Tarmac 22. I can honestly say that it is the best luggage purchase I have ever made. The Tarmac 22 has exceeded my expectations at every turn. It has handled everything that my other gear could not. Furthermore, it looks great.It is easy to load and organized in such a way that I can find everything I need in no time. I also made a point to buy some extra accessories so that I could use the Eagle Creek Pack-It system with my Tarmac bag. It is incredible how well this works together.Packing is now more simple than it has ever been and I am able to find anything I need when I need it. Now, for the first time in my travel career, I never fret packing for trips. I simply wash everything and put it back in the pack-it folders in preparation for my next trip. I feel more prepared than I have ever been. Another feature that really impresses me about the Tarmac 22 is how well balanced it is. My wheeled bags from other companies would always fall over when fully loaded. Not so for my Tarmac. Whether it is fully loaded or not, it always stands upright, even when I have other bags stacked on top of it. And, to boot, it carries that great No Matter What lifetime warranty. You really cannot go wrong with the Tarmac ES 22.

Great bag. Have used a Briggs and Riley for over 10 years and love this bag because of it's light weight and compartments.Just spent 18 days in China and it was great.In the U.S. a trick to make it fit in the overhead is place the bag in top first and wheels up.Saves space.

I use this belt to hold horse treats when I ride. It was smaller than I expected and the pocket was tighter than I expected. But the quality was great and I love the elastic, clipped belt.

This money belt worked well for me. It doesn't hold a lot, but it carried my passport and my American money (in Asia) and was barely noticeable; I had to pat my lower back occasionally to check if it was there. (It might be less comfortable if you were to wear it on your belly.) It's also worth noting -- you petite people out there -- that it worked well on someone who is thin and 5'1" tall. It didn't wrap around me. Some of the larger money belts would be way too long on a smaller person.

I've had this bag for 1.5 years now and it is terrific.Well designed & executed.Not cheap, but it should pay for itself in baggage fees that I don't have to pay.Great warranty.

I love this bag because of its lightweight and the system inside is spacious and clean.Works well for business trips and long weekends.
