REVIEW – When it comes to luggage, bags are pretty much all the same, right? That’s what I thought until I saw these carry-on bags from PROPS Luggage. They look like regular rolling bags, but they hide a feature that makes them way more convenient to use than all the other bags in my closet! …

REVIEW – I’ve got a kind of divisive review for this week, at least for frequent travelers: packing cubes. You see, you’re either a packing cube person or you’re not, I find. I have mixed feelings about them, but lately, I’ve seen packing cubes like the Cambond compression packing cubes all over the internet. They …

REVIEW – We do a lot of short trips and are always looking for a durable and more importantly functional way to pack. So, I was excited to try out a new option. Find out what I thought of the Quince Carry-On Hard Shell Suitcase. What is it? The Quince Carry-On Hard Shell Suitcase is …
REVIEW – One instance of realizing that you are now an adult is when you finally find yourself shopping for luggage. What used to be just handed down to you or whatever you could find in your closet to stuff clothes in for spring break suddenly turned into a systematic (spreadsheets may have been involved) …

NEWS – A couple of days ago, I told you all about Leatherman’s latest gear which just happens to be t-shirts and hats instead of multi-tools. Now another huge player in the multi-tool/EDC world has rolled out (see what I did there?) new versions of their Spectra line of rolling luggage. The 65% of the …
Victorinox Spectra travel gear – is it the swiss army knife of luggage? Read More
REVIEW – Carry-on suitcases are a dime a dozen. Everybody makes one. They all do pretty much the same thing – hold your junk and fit in the overhead bin on an aircraft. Why should we care about any new ones that come on the market? To be noticed in the fray, it would need …
July Carry-On Pro review – a roll aboard suitcase, laptop sleeve, and charging combo Read More
REVIEW – I have something of an almost diagnosable mania for luggage and backpacks. I guess it’s because I feel like the right travelling gear can really make or break your travel days. When Kabuto offered up a premium carry-on to review right before my family vacation, I was all over it! What is it? …
REVIEW – We didn’t travel much in 2020 due to COVID; instead, we chose to be cautious and hang out at home a lot. Hopefully things will look better in 2021, especially if these vaccines work well. If they do, then we’ll definitely take a vacation or two. Maybe we’ll head down to Myrtle Beach, …
REVIEW – I remember travel. We used to do it. In fact, we were in New Zealand on a cruise in March 2020 when the proverbial COVID poo hit the fan, our 56-day trip was cut short by 44 days, and we had to fly home from Sydney, Australia immediately after disembarking the ship. Some …
NEWS – One day, we will get back to traveling again and when we do, this may be the suitcase you need if you happen to have toddlers. The JetKids suitcase by Stokke is a hard plastic carry-on sized suitcase that is rugged enough to pull your kids around the airport so you don’t have …
REVIEW – Our family has several pieces of luggage, but after traveling to Asia and back and all over the east coast, they’re pretty beaten up. Additionally, they are not very flexible, as they have one main compartment for storing everything. It’s time to try something new, preferably something that is both durable and flexible. …
Several weeks ago, I wrote a news story on the UpCart and received some comments from our readers, including a request to review the cart. At that time, it was just a news story and I did not have one to review. Shortly thereafter, the owner of the UpCart Company saw the news story and …
When looking for the right bag, I am as captured by form as I am by function, sometimes to the point of making concessions on function when I find a real head-turning item. This is exactly the state I find myself in after using the Hardside Leather Carry On from Saddleback Leather Company.
Incase, known for their innovative bag designs and Apple-friendly products, has entered the smart luggage market with the new NoviConnected 22 Smart Hardshell Luggage. They’re bringing a pretty amazing set of features for the road warrior.
Even though I’ve reviewed a few backpacks to hold my gadgets and stuff, this is the first bonafide suitcase I’ve reviewed. I don’t travel much for my job, but when my wife and I travel, our cheap carryons are nothing but a pain—and kinda embarrassing when seen at an airport. So when the very attractive ec-bc …
