I have a carry on bag that works alright, it’s the right size, and I like how the pockets work. The only thing I’ve never really liked is the fact that the handle for the rolling option is about 3 to 4 inches too short. I don’t consider myself overly tall at 6 feet (that’s 2 meters for you non US types), but you’d be surprised what that 3 inches does to your back and\/or shoulder if you have to wheel it around for a while. Anyway, the top handle broke on my Malta trip and it has been the perfect excuse to go look for another. I managed to find one bag tonight that had a tall enough handle, but it was incredibly ugly. I’m not usually real finicky about how my luggage looks, but this thing was terrible. Plus, this thing felt like I could rip it apart, there’s no way it could handle a full load without self-destructing. The guy kept telling me that it was “real leather” when it was obviously vinyl… I’ll look when I’m back in the states, I’ll deal with this bag for at least one more trip…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
