I am a big fan of military uniforms (and often the boys in them), and the Chronic Fatigue Carry-On looks to be just right.

Using [repurposed helmet bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dhl-and-subject), these carry-ons will be great for going to work or trotting the globe. Plus, they are super cool-looking, and there are not many of the Chronic Fatigue [carry-on creations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carryon-x-core-collection) available, so you will be that much cooler. See more green, upcycled innovations below.

**Implications** - This military bag is great for anyone looking to stand out. Not only is it practical, but it also looks like the perfect item for any worn-out traveler. Never again will you have to worry about [pesky zippers breaking](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/transit-carryon) and items falling out all over the place. With this backpack, you'll be set to trek all over the world!
