I live more than an hour away from retail locations, and am utterly dependent on what I can find online.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/travel-bag-recommendations#post-1438070 Fri, 06 Feb 2015 16:31:01 +0000 Elle 1438070@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>American Apparel has a nylon weekend duffle bag that is surprisingly sturdy and when I last looked, was about $40.&nbsp; I used and absued one for years until finally the zipper (not the fabric) gave out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/travel-bag-recommendations#post-1438046 Fri, 06 Feb 2015 15:21:32 +0000 AM 1438046@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for Crutcher's suggestion -- add Home Goods. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/travel-bag-recommendations#post-1437988 Fri, 06 Feb 2015 13:21:15 +0000 Thistle 1437988@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I did not go expensive&nbsp;on this one as I don't travel much, and when I do, it's for work and across the globe. So, I bought a duffle bag from Champion at Target. It has held up amazingly well. It gets petty dirty going through the airlines, but it just wipes clean. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/travel-bag-recommendations#post-1437986 Fri, 06 Feb 2015 13:17:19 +0000 trekkiegirl 1437986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I second Crutcher's suggestion. Ross too, if there's one near you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/travel-bag-recommendations#post-1437978 Fri, 06 Feb 2015 12:35:01 +0000 crutcher 1437978@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just a suggestion but why don't you look at TJ Maxx or Marshall's for &nbsp;a bag...<br />They usually have great selections... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/travel-bag-recommendations#post-1437948 Fri, 06 Feb 2015 07:22:47 +0000 kellygirl 1437948@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a Weekender as well and really like it. I bought my daughters a duffle and a tote from Chico Bags and they worked really well. They aren't fancy and come in limited colors but they are functional and fold down to almost nothing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/travel-bag-recommendations#post-1437945 Fri, 06 Feb 2015 06:25:03 +0000 rachylou 1437945@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another Le Sportsac person here... But I do also have some LL Bean duffle bags that I traveled all over with. LL monograms anything you want on them. That's helpful for bag id. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/travel-bag-recommendations#post-1437912 Fri, 06 Feb 2015 03:19:01 +0000 Gaylene 1437912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, my LeSportsac Weekender is almost 15 years old and is still going strong if that helps with the price. It's also a well-travelled piece since it is almost always folded into my checked suitcase as a "spare" since I can use it as a larger carryon if my credit card gets too much of a workout to fit everything into my usual carryon, a Le Pilage bag. It has also been checked through more than once stuffed with jackets and laundry--and always survived the journey in fine shape. For years, it was the bag I took on ski trips because I could stuff it with my ski clothing and accessories. And it's my favorite bag to take on car trips if we stay in small inns and B&amp;Bs since it is easy to carry up a flight or two of stairs. Plus, I've washed the sucker half a dozen times in a regular machine and then let it air dry; it always comes out looking like new. </p> <p>If I ever lost my LeSportsac, I'd be bereft and would replace it in a heartbeat. Oh, and my bag was so handy, my husband bought one for himself a few years after I bought mine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/travel-bag-recommendations#post-1437905 Fri, 06 Feb 2015 03:02:22 +0000 Diana 1437905@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a Samsonite boarding bag that I love. Mine is an older model but this one is very similar. (Mine is fuchsia though! Which is awesome and means my husband never steals it the way he steals my neutral colored luggage, lol.)</p> <p><a href="http://www.ebags.com/product/samsonite/silhouette-sphere-2-boarding-bag/289311?productid=10348539&#038;sourceid=ADWPRODUCT&#038;couponid=94790994&#038;gclid=CN-E_fSpzMMCFRQbgQodNU8A8w&#038;kwid=productads-plaid%5E91076554698-sku%5E10348539-adType%5EPLA-device%5Et-adid%5E50251270938" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebags.com/product/s.....0251270938</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/travel-bag-recommendations#post-1437892 Fri, 06 Feb 2015 02:28:00 +0000 gradfashionista 1437892@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll be traveling next week and next month and realized that rolling suitcases are dreadfully inconvenient in snowy conditions when one relies on public transportation. I'd like a durable bag that is budget airline friendly. In spring weather, rolling suitcases are great, but&nbsp;even the lightweight ones add too much weight, 5-7lbs. I was thinking of getting the medium LeSportSac <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.zappos.com/lesportsac-luggage-medium-weekender-bag-black-patent">weekender</a>, but was wondering if anybody knew of cheaper or better&nbsp;alternatives? I own an&nbsp;extra-large weekender and am happy with it, but would rather have something more budget friendly this time, if possible. Checked the usual suspects, but&nbsp;even with a discount, this bag isn't clocking in at less than a hundred.&nbsp; </p>
