Luggage problem/help select replacement
Hey folks,
I travel a fair amount- usually 3 days every other week. Lately I’ve been traveling every week. While the miles are rolling in I have a luggage issue. I have an Orvis rolling carry-on. In less than 2 years I am on bag number 5. The zippers keep breaking. They are nice looking brass zippers, but now number 6 just broke. Orvis has a lifetime warranty and keeps replacing them but I’m at my whit’s end. My co-workers travel with $50 suitcases that never break. Here I am with a $250.00 carry on that has broken 6 times.
Orvis will send me another and get it here in a week (what I pack in Monday is anyone’s guess). I’m thinking that its time to jump ship with Orvis. However, I need some good suggestions.
I’m looking for something that can hold 2 suites in a folding/hanging area. I LOVE the fact that this Orvis is green canvas and not black like every other suitcase at the airport. I also love how sturdy the rest of the bag is (the handle, fabric, etc).
Does anyone have any good recommendations? I don’t want to spend more than $250-$275 tops. I’d really prefer something that is recognizable, so when I get off of the canadair jet, I can go right to my bag.
A folding garment bag seems like a good suggestion, but I can’t carry anything else off the shoulder, I need something that rolls.
Thanks!
