The retail chain shared a video on TikTok showing off the black backpack.
First they opened the front pocket, then they opened the main compartment, which had elastic bands with a buckle to keep the clothes firmly in place.
On the other side there is also a mesh pocket, just the right size for a pair of shoes. They showed this by putting a pair of trainers in there.
Then they closed all the pockets and fastened the buckles on the front and sides for some extra security.

“There’s a bag for everything!” was the caption to the video.
People were quick to react to the clip, with one admitting he would love to have one.
“Not a wish, but a necessity,” they wrote.
And someone else replied, “Really!”
It seems they weren’t the only ones impressed with the new offering, as the TikTok video has nearly 53,000 likes on the social media site.
The bag is likely to become even more popular, given the strict rules many airlines have on the size of carry-on luggage people can take.
Many companies cite safety concerns or take-off weight restrictions as reasons for limiting the size of carry-on luggage.
Others, however, take advantage of the financial incentive the policy provides, as they can charge fees when people check in their bags.
If a bag is too large or heavy to be considered hand luggage, the customer must usually check it in as hold luggage. A surcharge applies for this.
An investigation performed by Rip Off Britain Last year, it emerged that Ryanair’s permitted size of hand luggage, which is included in the price of a flight ticket, had decreased the most.
Why is Primark the place to go for bargains?
HOW does Primark do it? Keep delivering on-trend items at such unbelievable prices? According to bosses, it comes down to four things.
- They “sell a lot of items” – Thanks to them they can save by buying in bulk for their 191 UK stores
- They “do very little advertising”
- Although their clothes represent the “latest trends”, “they do not use expensive hangers, tags or labels”.
- And finally, they try to be “as efficient as possible when transporting products from factories to stores.” This includes things like “asking suppliers to package our t-shirts so they can go straight on the shelves.”

In 2018, passengers were allowed to take hand luggage with a maximum size of 55 x 40 x 20 cm.
But now Ryanair only allows bags measuring up to 40 x 20 x 25 cm – a reduction of 55 percent.
The research also found that easyJet and Wizz Air have reduced the size limits for hand luggage.
