Everyone needs a good weekender bag. Whether you’re heading on a short business trip or traveling for fun, they’re versatile and convenient. In the world of perfect weekender bags, Dagne Dover is an oft-cited favorite, but with a $185 cost, it’s pricy. Thankfully, there’s an alternative.
ALDI’s Dagne Dover alternative retails for $20, and it’s on sale in ALDI stores now.
Much like the Dagne Dover Landon Carryall, the ALDI Serra Neoprene Duffle features practical two-way zippers, a sleeve for attaching to luggage, a removable shoulder strap, and a spacious interior. You get it all for just $20…if you can find it. Unfortunately, you can’t shop ALDI online yet, and you also can’t use the ALDI website to check stores’ stock. Snagging this bag is the luck of the draw.
But if you really want a Dagne Dover alternative, you can find one on Amazon in the Etronik Weekender Overnight Bag.
The Etronik is slightly more expensive than the ALDI version ringing in at $49.99 (though it’s often on sale for cheaper), but it’s still a pretty major discount from the Dagne Dover. The bag comes in a variety of colors including pink, cream, black, and hunter green—many of the same colorways as Dagne Dover.
As for its features, there’s a detachable shoulder strap, a luggage trolley strap for easy carrying, a side pocket perfect for carrying your Stanley tumbler, multiple pockets for organization, and a separate compartment for shoes. Essentially, it’s got all the major features you need.
If your local ALDI doesn’t have the Dagne Dover alternative in stock, this Amazon option might do the trick.
