Have a different question about shipping, returns, or warranty information?
Yes. The Pelican 1535 Air was designed for carry-on use and fits within the size limits of many major airlines, making it a top choice for travel. Because airline policies can vary, we always recommend checking your carrier’s current requirements before flying.
The 1535 Air offers similar carry-on functionality in a lighter-weight case with a more modern look and feel. The 1510 is heavier, but many customers still prefer it for its more traditional Pelican-style ruggedness.
It depends on how you plan to use your case. Foam is best for a permanent custom fit, padded dividers are ideal for flexible setups that change often, and TrekPak offers a clean, professional layout for kits that stay mostly the same.
The 1535 Air is one of the lightest hard-sided carry-on cases in its class. It weighs 3.3 lb less than the Pelican 1510, making it easier to lift into overhead bins, roll through the airport, and travel with overall.
Absolutely. Many customers use the 1535 Air as a premium carry-on for clothing, tech, and travel essentials, while others build it out for cameras, tools, or work gear. Its versatility is one of the biggest reasons it’s so popular.
Yes. The 1535 Air is built for serious travel and everyday use while keeping weight to a minimum. It’s a great option for anyone who wants trusted protection without stepping up to a heavier case.

The coloured latches and handles make my toolbox stand out from the rest of the cases at the airport and job site.
I take 1-star off because I mangled my lid when trying to install the latches. There should be an installation kit included to push the original pins out.
The best case on the movie set
Fast Delivery. Great set of wheels. My wife loves them! I have a pair for my other pelican in orange and they also rock! Definitely will buy again and reccommend to all!!
The best case on the movie set
With Landing Gear installed the coefficient of drag was minimized making the trip through the airport just a little bit easier. The installation was just a few minutes and very simple.
Had a small issue with one of the wheels shortly after installation, but the customer service team was quick to respond and help get it corrected. Pleased with how quickly the response and resolution was!
I was driving by Vegas with the fam (last vacay with them before a 9mo deployment) and Colorcase store just caught my eye. My husband was like, won’t u need a pelican?
Fast fwd, this has been the best decision ever, I ended up flying 5x prior to getting to my ULT dest, and I’m 61”, this deep luggage practically fit 2seabag full, it became my closet for 2 mos.. Extremely durable while transporting living situations via gravel.. Just so damn convenient and all branches are just in envy. Not to mention, their superb customer service at the flagship store. They are military family that cares for us. Thank you!!!
I use this as a travel case for my mobile youtube studio and it fits all my gear and is easy to take on planes. I recomend also getting the Rucpac conversion kit. 10/10
