Heavy carryon, well built, compression
"Heavy carryon, well built, compression tech is a game changer. Watch YouTube for packing videos to truly maximize the features of this carryon. The wheels feels a bit flimsy and I wouldn’t be surprised if a new telescopic handle is required within the next 12 months. The blue color scheme is the ultimate flex. I can tell you, there are quite a few black B&R essentials on each flight."

So far, 4 weeks of
"So far, 4 weeks of weekly use, it is a beautiful bag. The press down compression is less exciting then I thought. It pops right back up. But the bag is deceiving. It is small and yet big. I use it for my 3-4 day trips and use my medium check B&R matching bag for 5+ days or winter travel. I use a cover to stop the wear from the baggage handlers as much as possible. One of my favorite parts is the garment feature. Perfect for the business traveler like me."

Quality on wheels
"I bought for my husband a navy blue version of the red 56cm Carryon Expandable suitcase that I had bought years and years ago. It looks very smart, has some new features that strengthen as well as improve the look of the case. The case arrived very promplty as promised and has already been used for two trips and another coming up."

Essential 22" Carry-On
"I have several Briggs and Riley suitcases. As always the quality of this bag is topnotch. It is well designed, which makes packing easy. I have the matching backpack as well. This is a perfect combo for short trips. I am very happy with ny purchases."

Should have bought years ago!
"I travel at least two weeks of month if not more. I have tried several brands of suitcases and backpacks. It warnt until my started having back issues that I considered the splurge on Briggs & Riley, specifically because of its J Hook strap system that conveniently attaches to this luggage. I purchased the briefcase as well, giving up carrying a backpack on my luggage or shoulder. It’s so worth it! To not have the weight of a backpack sitting on top of a carry on is fantastic. I thought their patented compression system wouldn’t be as good as it sounds but it is. I have packed a week’s worth of winter clothes in my suitcase, closed it, pushed it down as instructed, and could still get it in the overhead of a regional carrier. Other brands that “expand” I cannot do this with. Highly recommend."

I'm in love
"For quite some time, I had been looking for the right backpack for both business use and personal travel. I visited several TUMI stores and also considered RIMOWA, but somehow I never found a backpack that gave me that immediate feeling of knowing I had found exactly what I was looking for. I eventually came across Briggs & Riley online through a recommendation. As I was specifically looking for a high quality bag with an excellent warranty, the brand immediately appealed to me. The moment I saw this backpack, I had a strong feeling that this was the one. I ordered it straight away and, since receiving it, I have not regretted my decision for a moment. The quality is exceptional and the storage options are both practical and very well thought out. This is my first Briggs & Riley purchase, but I am certain it will not be my last."

Organization, Style and Durability
"This is the second Briggs carry-on I've purchased. The only reason I replaced the former is a desire to go to 4 wheels from 2, a reflection of the changing "technology" in carry-on design. My first Briggs carry-on has made countless flights both domestic and international and never failed me including trips to interior Africa where baggage handling is akin to roller derby."

Perfect pockets and Style
"I've been very impressed with my bag as I've done 6 trips since I bought it, the pockets are in all the right spots and it seems if have exactly the right amount of space. Would highly recommend to any business travelers."

Super high quality
"I love this backpack. High quality design, feels premium, looks professional, and holds more than my large backpack I had before does. I would have bought an @Work Sling if it was available in the same color, tell top brass we need a matching Sling!"

It's beautiful
"I'm a long time Briggs & Riley user and when replacing my 22" case I didn't consider any other label. I have an 18" case that is at least 20 years old and still looks brand new - I do not check it. My old 22" case is still in good shape, but I could not resist getting a new plum suitcase!"
