Should I get a wheeled carry-on with a suiter? I would say most of my travel requires me to bring a suit or two (I wear 44R), but as I've never had luggage with a suiter, I don't know whether it's a better option than folding things myself.

I'm mostly locked into that jacket as I have a ton of store credit from my jacket return (they could not repair nor give me a suitable replacement) and I need a jacket for those types of conditions for-- ironically enough-- a trip to Torres del Paine in Patagonia next December. I was unimpressed with the Thermoball.

qirex posted:I don't hate the Wirecutter but they do way too much "we eliminated 60% of all options because of some arbitrary feature," in this case a padded hip belt seems to be what the reviewer focused on. The Tortuga looks but the straps don't tuck away plus lack of a single shoulder strap mean I have zero interest in it. It also looks way overengineered, the 8 million tiny pockets, gigantic hip belt, TSA the laptop sleeve, etc. It weighs 5 pounds empty. I'll probably just get an MLC when my bag dies. But luggage is like a simpler version of a car, where your usage profile can lead to drastically different recommendations.

qirex posted:Confession: I've only used the backpack straps on my convertible bag maybe a dozen times total. For some reason I'm OK walking pretty far with it over one shoulder plus I usually have another messenger bag too and wearing that with a backpack on is a huge pain. If you're going to be carrying a bunch of poo poo on your back for miles and miles, you should probably use a bag that's specifically designed for carrying a bunch of poo poo on your back for miles and miles, not some duffle bag that added backpack straps as an afterthought.

LUBE UP YOUR BUTT posted:I got a job in consulting and will probably be doing a fair bit of travelling - current project includes 4 week-long trips in 4 different countries - so its time to get some proper luggage. I sold it at a $60 loss to a friend and bought the 22" model. I'm super happy with it.
