REVIEW – Look at me, on vacation, carrying things! I’m testing the STM BagPack, a packable 15 liter backpack that you can stuff and pack for travel, then pull it our when you get to your destination. But this bag has another secret: it’s got an inflatable laptop sleeve if you need to haul your […]

REVIEW – I’m on a never-ending, eternal quest to keep things organized. I’ve settled on small victories instead, such as this travel organizer from Inateck.

REVIEW – Everybody needs a good everyday carry bag, right? I have several, in different forms. I have a backpack that I sling over my shoulder when I want to use a backpack, usually when traveling. I also have a briefcase (the Leacarve leather briefcase I reviewed back in 2018) that I use when I

REVIEW – A handbag, in case you aren’t aware, is kind of a personal thing. There are thousands of bags out there because everyone has different needs, and as our lives change, so does our bag. When I was told I could choose a bag from the Latico website, I was pretty excited because there

REVIEW – Aer got their start by crowdfunding a combination gym/office bag and as they approach a 10 year anniversary next year, they now have quite an exhaustive collection of bags and travel essentials. I still have their first generation Travel Pack and after all this time it’s barely showing any wear. So a chance

REVIEW – Even though I’m female, I don’t regularly carry a purse/bag when I go out of the house. I usually put my wallet in my pocket along with my car fob and my phone. Although that works, it’s not exactly comfortable. And if I need to carry something else, forget it. So, I have

REVIEW – For the last 10 years, my goto carry-on bag was a free overnighter that I got from work. It’s about as cheap as luggage can be and still function. When the opportunity to review the Roam medium duffel came up, the timing was perfect – a busy summer travel season and a current

REVIEW – The first toiletry travel bag I ever had was from the early 1980s. It was a vinyl zip up bag that came with my Remington shaver. It eventually cracked and dissolved from years of use and exposure to DEET bug repellent. I’m not quite as adventurous now but the WaterField Travel Toiletry Bag

REVIEW – I’ve come to realize that I may never find my perfect backpack, but that search pales in comparison to the search for a work worthy tote that can carry a laptop. I think we’ve been looking for one for my wife for her entire career. Troubadour Goods recently offered up their Featherweight Tote

REVIEW – My husband has accumulated many things he needs to bring in his everyday travels. Shorts or pants pockets can no longer hold what he needs on a daily basis. He has been looking for a good lightweight, small bag to carry his two wallets (yea, don’t get me started!), reading glasses, a large
