and it's quite tough and durable. It just about squeeze under a BA seat without being tipped flat, and obviously after take-off and before landing it can be placed directly in front of the seat so no legroom is lost at all, and it's well below the thighs.

Incidentally I got it because it is the one and only bag allowed on Norse for their base fares. So their £228 fares to New York gets you just this bag, to have a 10 kgs bag in the overhead locker costs an extra £37.
Well you're certainly a dark horse CWS, never for one moment imagined you traveling on a basic Norse fare...

(To be fair I did seriously consider giving their premium class a go at £650 return to BGI, but no TA was prepared to package it up...)
