Luggage Bags and Packs
-
Finally got my Master-Piece lightning shoulder sling. Love the size, materials and that it’s made in Japan. I’m gonna use this at the State Fair tomorrow, so it’ll be nice not having a backpack this time. The shoulder sling looks and feels like an actual seatbelt [emoji1]

Has anyone ordered cheap Filson duffle from Ebay? Knockoff, factory second or real deal?

I see no reason not to trust the seller. They have 100% feedback and accept returns (with a restocking fee). When in doubt, contact the seller and ask questions.

Thanks for the answer. I noticed there is a return possibility, but since I will order it to our hotel when visiting in states I prefer not to have any hassle.

what about DSPTCH? i've been looking at the 3sixteen collab model. looks good, decent size.
I picked one of these up a few months ago and really really like it. Previously I was using a Goruck GR1. The 3sixteen/dspatch is a bit smaller but i find it more enjoyable so far. I can get pictures if need be.
I've even though of getting another color as a backup. [emoji23]

Same boat, wanted a GR1 for a while but recently picked up the Daypack by DSPTCH and it's perfect. Good size, and feels pretty well made to me. Definitely recommend it.

All this DSPTCH talk has talked me into this little beauty!
Sorry for the sideways pics!

Nice bag @Anesthetist. I like the way that Dyneema creases up.
You do realise if you kept your addiction under control, you'd have been able to afford a Bole rucksack years ago?
-
I do love how dyneema creases and crumples. I have a Hauly that almost looks like leather it has so much character.
And as for the King of all Rucksacks, that thought has crossed my mind [emoji23]

Maybe that I missed the topic. But won't withhold this beauty:
An handcrafted Rucksack from skilled Russian named Nikita on Behance. This was over € 1000 but worth every cent.
IMO the best available but weights over 4 kg :o
Out of heavy natural canvas and smooth leather -
My bag for daily office.Herz, made in Japan (from where else?)

@Anesthetist do you travel with it much as checked luggage? I've looked at Rimowa a few times but can only seem to find horror stories with them in checked luggage. I've done around 60-70 international legs/trips over the last few years with my Briggs and Riley and it's still looking like the day I purchased it in 2012, which is great, but I am expecting at some point it'll have it's last day and the warranty isn't great from Australia, so will need a plan b. I like the idea of Rimowa, but practically from what I've read I can't find any reviews that say a Rimowa can hold up to that level of international checked abuse. Thoughts?

Ended up picking up a GR2 34L over xmas as a travel back. The Briggs and Riley backpack's TSA approved section ended up giving me the shits as the TSA never accepted it as approved… should get a chance to give it a work out over Jan...
So far it's been the perfect bag to travel with @ airports, and use as a day bag for the office. It's also been enjoyable to use as a laundry bag as it can hold so much. Contented hopefully finally for a long time!
And another lap around the planet and still sticking by this. Bag search for travel is done and dusted!
Lost track of laps now (too many :|). Next lap starts today, same combo, still feeling perfect with it. 9 months and good as day 1. Build quality is flawless and it's been through a lot of abuse.
Still going strong 30-35 laps around the globe (60-70 int'l legs)

We have three Rimowa carry ons and a check in Sport Trunk. Two of the carry ons are Salsa Air, the most minimalistic and lightweight cases that Rimowa makes and the other is my Topas. I would venture that if checked, the Topas would get scratches and dings like my old Halliburton but would be fine. Because of their light construction I wouldnt want to check the Airs.
The Sport Trunk is Salsa and has been on around 10 flights and has some scuffs and bumps but is otherwise good to go. We do use a luggage band around it for additional compression and I think that does help. No smoked wheels yet luckily, in fact I’d say that the Trunk is one of the more convenient pieces we’ve ever owned because of its wheel system.
The big gripe I have is that every Rimowa dealership used to carry parts and they had basically SOMEWHERE to fix your luggage in every major city. When LVMH bought Rimowa they’ve changed the line names, made them more expensive, and made it so only flagships have parts. I’d sell the damn thing before I shipped it all the way to New York for a fekking wheel. Also, because LVMH has increased their marketing to almost Rolex levels on social media, I feel like our bags get more attention at the airport. I have had people in line for a coffee ask if my suitcase was real…Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I've started using a Pelican Air case for checked in, holding up great. A little heavy though.
Nice thing is when it finally breaks (I break everything), Pelican has an awesome warranty program. I've used it before on other cases, they ask you to take a picture of the damage and email it to them, they might or might not ask you to drill a hole in the case to "destroy it", and they send you a new one. -
Briggs & Riley: below the radar, functional, durable, great warranty.
Not sexy, but for me those are important boxes to tick for luggage.
