What's yo Bag?

Looking for some opinions on what you use for your game bag?

I've seen:

22" Carry on luggage style?

Leather bag w/ shoulder strap

etc

I am leaning carry on suit case style.

Any brand you'd recommend?

I'm looking at Travelpro which range from $150 - $300 for a 22" expandable

Opinions?

I will probably order this one from ebags, unless I find it in a store soon:

I was looking at this one:

But $260!

I think I like the "built in garment bag" concept

but naturally in the color Red!

I have an old cloth carry on style bag with two outer pockets for whistles and auxillary items and two side pockets for shoes that I love but I can not find another bag like it.

Larks I would look at one of the "seconds" stores locally - Tuesday Morning usually has a nice selection of carry on bags as low as $ 50 - $ 70. Choice of colors might be limited.

Try eBay. $179 + $18 shipping.

According to the web site, this item ships free. I have ordered from them before and the shipping is free.

Peace

I have a 24" expandable Samsonite that I picked up from http://www.luggagebase.com. They've some pretty good prices.

Now, if you talk to M&M or refnrev, they will tell you that I basically carry around a PODS.

But it never hurts to be fully prepared (again, they would probably say I'm over prepared

).

Go to Kohl's / Target / Wal-Mart and spend $120 - $240 less than the above.

I prefer the carry bag (large gym bag style) to the roller suitcase style for basketball.

I just use a plastic bag from walmart, If I am out I switch to the Paper grocery bag!

Actually I bought a leather gym bag and it works great!

I do quite a bit of traveling especially in the summer and my travelpro 18" carry-on is the best. Bar none.

I just purchased a bag this weekend from TravelPro that sounds like the bag that Larks posted. I am not sure if it is based on what I know at this time. My bag cost about $150 but I bought this bag at a luggage specific store at a mall. It has many of the same features that were posted but I am not sure if it is exactly the same. The inner garment bag is just wonderful.

Peace

That sounds about right - there are a couple models I've seen online with the garment bag around $150. The "Crew 5" I think was one model by TravelPro that I saw.

Where do you put your shoes?
