Best Gifts Ever!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought 3 of the basic weekenders for my adult sons. They are all so pleased with the quality, the look and how much you can actually fit in this bag.

bad business management

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I made a purchase, paid for it, and then a week later they canceled it without saying anything. Why did you make me wait a week? You inconvenienced me. I was only visiting The USA for 8-9 days anyway, and your delaying tactics prevented me from making the purchase.

Better Than Basic Weekender

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just got back from a 10 day, 2895 mile Burke's Christan Tours Grand New England & Coastal Maine Motor Coach Tour. The overhead storage called for an 8 inch bag but the Better Than Basic Weekender is flexible enough to stuff it in even almost full. The bottom compartment for shoes is great. It works perfectly with our Samsonite Outline Pro Spinner Luggage.

Great buy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I travel long haul flights one a month. This is an outstanding add on to my carry-on. The bag is spacious, the laptop sleeve is useful, I can pack clothes for 2-3 days easily. And it is nicely designed and easy to carry
