What you’re describing sounds very heavy. Get a Briggs & Riley bag instead.

I mention Briggs & Riley every time luggage comes up. Their warranty is fantastic and after too many failed luggage incidents with other brands I sucked it up and bought all Briggs & Riley. They aren’t necessarily the most flashy but damn they’re built to last.

I have 11 various bits of luggage and bags by them now and the only issue I’ve ever had was a cover pop off a wheel (still functioned fine and they replaced the cover no questions asked). I fly all the time for work and the family loves to vacation so we get heavy use of our luggage.

I went with their soft shell lines. I think Baseline (doesn’t look fancy) or the ZDX line (looks nicer but I think more costly). I don’t care about looks of it works!!

This is what I was going to suggest. I have one that has been literally all over the world (soft-sided) and I still use it, absolutely no problems after 20+ years. I bought a new, slightly smaller one recently and it appears to also be very well made.

Briggs & Riley. Enough said. Lifetime warranty. Built for the traveler and easy repairs.
