Lightweight protection for carry-on gear
The Pelican 1535 Air case uses proprietary HPX polymer to deliver up to 40 percent less weight than earlier models while keeping equipment dry and secure. Its watertight seal and automatic purge valve balance air pressure without letting in water or dust. Photographers, videographers and outdoor professionals can transport sensitive electronics confidently.
Verify airline dimensions and interior layout
Confirm that the case meets your carrier’s carry-on size limits before travel. The yellow 2017 version ships with no foam, so you must supply custom inserts or dividers to organise cameras, lenses or drones. Check that the retractable extension handle and stainless-steel bearing wheels clear any overhead-bin restraints you typically encounter.
Empty interior lets you design the fit
Without pre-cut foam, the cavity becomes a blank slate for bespoke padding, modular cubes or rigid frames tailored to your kit. A built-in business card holder aids identification at baggage check. Quiet-rolling wheels and the purge valve stay functional regardless of how you configure the interior.

Questions about this item
Does the 1535 Air case come with any foam inserts, or do I need to buy them separately?
This model is sold as a no-foam version; the interior is empty so you can add your own custom inserts or use the case as-is.
What does the 40% lighter figure mean for the 1535 Air compared to older models?
The proprietary HPX polymer construction makes this case up to 40% lighter than previous Pelican cases while keeping the same watertight, impact-resistant protection.
How does the automatic purge valve work when I fly with the 1535 Air?
The valve balances internal air pressure during altitude changes while keeping water and dust out, so the case stays sealed without vacuum-locking shut.
