Weekender Bag, Black, BL256-4, Baseline

Update: Worked well as a second piece of checked luggage, for two different people (i.e., two of these duffle bags), on a long international trip which required three flights each way to reach a remote destination. I will likely typically use these bags as back-up, packed flat luggage most of the time. Regardless, the two bags purchased easily handled being heavily packed checked luggage. Happy with this purchase. Original: Initially ordered a different Briggs & Riley duffel bag, but it would have not folded flat enough for easy packing, to be used as a back-up duffel bag when traveling (i.e., for a return flight, when an additional piece of luggage was desired) as well as I was underwhelmed by the zipper quality on the other B&R duffel bag. This duffel bag was on sale, so I decided to try it. I have not yet used the bag, but it appears to be well made, the zippers function well (better than the other B&R duffel bag), this duffel easily slides over the handles of my rolling luggage as well this duffel could be packed and used as additional luggage when returning from a trip.

This bag far exceeded my expection--so much so until I am about to purchase another one in a different color. I bought it to accompany my standard carry on bag wheeled bag. However, because of its many pockets and cavernous space, it has become my favorite travel bag. I would rate it a six if I could. I have many Briggs and Riley bags--all if which are great--but this is my favorite. It easily rests upon my wheeled luggage and is easily transported, if necessary, via its shoulder strap. Furthermore, it easily fits under the smallest airplane seat or overhead bin.

Great bag for my Briggs and Riley suitcase. Love it!

Too large to be an underseat item. Otherwise great quality.

It's hard to overstate just how excellent this bag is. It's durable, the zippers are a joy to use, there's storage literally everywhere, and it's versatile. No matter what task you have in mind, this bag will accommodate you. I like to use it on short weekend trips, camping, and other "medium sized" tasks where I don't need full blown luggage. I can tell this thing is built to last and will give me years of good service. This is an expensive brand but they are definitely worth it.
