that's a nice looking bag...rightly or wrongly i'm hooked on the waxed canvas for some reason.

well, ok, to be honest, much like that coach bag...the ultimate for me would be a glaser designs square duffle.. probably the 6 inch depth one...

...but I've already spent my lifetime karma on a glaser flaptop briefcase. that's just too much hide to be carrying around.

this pushes me in an interesting direction-I've half thought of going wheeless for shorter 1-2 night trips, but I'm imagining that with no wheels/handle mechanisms a 21 inch bag would hold much more than my 20 inch travelpro...if that logic is sound i could go even smaller and get the same capacity....
