Awesome looks, super functional.
Jen Says:
"Every time we get a new Built NY order in, I can't wait to see what the patterns are. This time they really did it with both design and function. Using amazing patterns from Alexander Girard, they have created a sleek, lightweight laptop sleeve with a shoulder strap that can go crossbody."
Super capacity, super warranty.
Jon Says:
"Wow. The only drawback to this bag is that it may be a wee bit to wide to roll down the aisle of some planes, but otherwise could be a perfect carry-on. If you need to carry aboard as much as legally possible...........cue the applause. It packs 41 liters! That is 13 liters more space than the standard Transcend carry-on (TDU520), and if that fills up, they offer an expansion that max's the bag out at 53 liters. I know some of you may try and carry it aboard expanded, but if your in my aisle, my jacket hopes you've checked it through."
Shirley Says:
"I think the reasons this bag is selling so well are that it works great for business travelers by giving them the absolute maximum carry-on capacity. It has a built in garment sleeve that extends longer than most for taller gentlemen, so there is no need to check anything through when traveling for a short overnight stay. It can be expanded for the return journey home when you'll need the extra space for shopping, brochures, samples etc. and don't really mind checking."
Extremely organized and easy to secure unisex travel bag.
Jon Says:
"While I'm not a huge fan of Eagle Creeks style, I think they have a real winner with this bag. The back compartment is great for ipod, passport and other things you'd like to keep safe. The pocket is easy to secure with a brilliant little slider tab that will prevent any casual thievery while walking the streets of Rome. It is quite lightweight compared to other shoulder bags people seem to like, and has a comfortable shoulder strap for displacing weight. Great main compartment that is tall enough for a book, camera and sunglasses etc and has a divided water bottle pocket. If you are looking for a travel bag, I haven't seen anything smarter out there."
Lightweight, well organized and doesn't tip over!
Jon Says:
"This should be a serious consideration for anyone travelling to Europe. Light enough that you can keep it under 44 lbs European weight limits (not to mention the 50 lbs North American restriction), narrow enough to pull down a train aisle, tough enough to pull outside of an airport and down a cobblestoned street. My favorite duffel on wheels."
Incredibly light, incredibly strong, incredibly mobile.
Peter says:
"A great suitcase. I recently had a chance to use this for a 3 week trip to Phoenix and packed to its absolute max, I checked in at 48.5 lbs. I used the brown, and it is a really good looking dark alternative to plain old black"
Ruth says:
"I'm very impressed with the recessed spinner wheels. For winding your way through lineups and airports, it is essentially hassle free and very easy to manouver."
Jon Says:
"This polycarbonate stuff is wild. If weight is a concern, look no further. This and the Salsa series are crazy light. I think Rimowa has set the standard for lightweight hardside and has everyone else playing catch up."
Makes folding easier, but most importantly, prevents your bag from turning into a disaster zone when you are digging for the socks you were sure you had packed. Lots of colors for the uber organized.
Shirley says:
“Garments look like they were professionaly folded when you use the board. It also keeps your bag neat and organized, especially if you are sharing a case and you each have a different color folder.”
Jon says:
“Just about the only packing accessory that I use. A very simple but very smart idea. This thing has changed the way people pack.”
Ruth Says:
"The best system to keep your shirts wrinkle free. Fits perfectly into my 24" Transcend."
Lightweight, nice wide opening, tall heavy-duty pull handle, fantastic wheels.
Shirley says:
“I like it because it fits onto the RJ’s (regional jets), packs a lot for its size and is one of the few rolling totes to have a couple of outside pockets that can hold a water bottle or folded newspaper.”
Jon says:
“A really smart bag. Like all Briggs bags, you end up with a little more space than you would expect when looking at it, because all of the hardware is on the outside of the bag. I guess for this reason we have sold quite a few of them who travel with Sleep Apnea machines that need to be carried aboard.”
Ruth Says:
"Out of all the carry-ons we have, the extra wide opening makes this my favorite rolling tote. None of the rest seem to be as easy to pack and organize."
Leona Says:
"The angles on this bag make for an easy pack. With the frame outside, you have so much more packing space than any other tote in its size or weight."
