luggage

REVIEW – I’ve used some of my luggage pieces for nearly 20 years now, and they’re definitely looking the part. I’ve replaced a few pieces over the years (and the ones I haven’t replaced look like they’re about to explode spontaneously).  Hardside luggage with 360° spinners style is the only type I’ll get from now […]

REVIEW – When it comes to luggage, bags are pretty much all the same, right? That’s what I thought until I saw these carry-on bags from PROPS Luggage. They look like regular rolling bags, but they hide a feature that makes them way more convenient to use than all the other bags in my closet!

REVIEW – I’ve got a kind of divisive review for this week, at least for frequent travelers: packing cubes. You see, you’re either a packing cube person or you’re not, I find. I have mixed feelings about them, but lately, I’ve seen packing cubes like the Cambond compression packing cubes all over the internet. They

REVIEW – We do a lot of short trips and are always looking for a durable and more importantly functional way to pack.  So, I was excited to try out a new option.  Find out what I thought of the Quince Carry-On Hard Shell Suitcase. What is it? The Quince Carry-On Hard Shell Suitcase is

REVIEW – One instance of realizing that you are now an adult is when you finally find yourself shopping for luggage. What used to be just handed down to you or whatever you could find in your closet to stuff clothes in for spring break suddenly turned into a systematic (spreadsheets may have been involved)

REVIEW – Carry-on suitcases are a dime a dozen.  Everybody makes one.  They all do pretty much the same thing – hold your junk and fit in the overhead bin on an aircraft.  Why should we care about any new ones that come on the market?  To be noticed in the fray, it would need

REVIEW – I have something of an almost diagnosable mania for luggage and backpacks. I guess it’s because I feel like the right travelling gear can really make or break your travel days. When Kabuto offered up a premium carry-on to review right before my family vacation, I was all over it! What is it?

REVIEW – We didn’t travel much in 2020 due to COVID; instead, we chose to be cautious and hang out at home a lot.  Hopefully things will look better in 2021, especially if these vaccines work well.  If they do, then we’ll definitely take a vacation or two.  Maybe we’ll head down to Myrtle Beach,

REVIEW – I remember travel.  We used to do it.  In fact, we were in New Zealand on a cruise in March 2020 when the proverbial COVID poo hit the fan, our 56-day trip was cut short by 44 days, and we had to fly home from Sydney, Australia immediately after disembarking the ship.  Some

REVIEW – Our family has several pieces of luggage, but after traveling to Asia and back and all over the east coast, they’re pretty beaten up.  Additionally, they are not very flexible, as they have one main compartment for storing everything.  It’s time to try something new, preferably something that is both durable and flexible. 

The best part of traveling is seeing new places, meeting new people and eating new foods. The worst part about traveling is packing. Especially unpacking. In the past, it’s been a big hassle to our old luggage because it was like a set of Russian nested dolls, where the largest suitcase held the next largest suitcase,
