    Road warriors!

    Any recommendation on a lightweight, fit in overhead compartment roller bag. My favorite travelpro has seen its last trip and the newer travelpro look like ever other roller bag which don't hold my stuff for a 5 day trip. I have to carry special work shoes/1 paid heels/gym stuff/work cloths/ makeup / hair stuff.

    I use a Samsonite roller for 2-3 days travel. Otherwise I use a slightly bigger one that I'll check.

    The samsonite roller fits in airline overhead bins no problem.

    Go to Marshall's or TJ Maxx as opposed to a Macys or something. You'll get a way better deal. Costco also has some good deals on luggage from time to time.

    yeh..np...

    Samsonite bought out travel 2000(store where I used to manage)...they're good quality...

    im not sure how much u travel or would use it....but if memory serves me correctly..I believe b&r would run about 300 for a carry-on....w/lifetime warranty..for any reason they would replace it...imo would be the better value

    My current defunct roller was purchased at travelpro. Your memory is Serving u well. B&R r about 300. My sweet mom gave me some Christmas cash so won't hurt as much. I am thinking on a wide body (never would i think a wide load good on me. Lol.) More square; seems like better usage of space. Just like to touch one b4 I jump on this.
