A Great Bag Suitable for Short or Long Trips
"I love this Overnighter. It's made of a very durable material that seems to be dirt resistant and waterproof. You can carry it by the handles, the padded shoulder strap or slide the sleeve, on the back of it, rights over the handle of your suitcase. The zippers and all of the hardware are strong and sturdy. It has lots of room and can be unzipped at the bottom to expand an extra 5 inches to provide even more room. It has 3 pockets on the outside, one of which is zippered and provides RFID protection and a lanyard on which to clip your keys. It also has an a zippered pocket on top, which I used to slide my tablet into. There are 2 deep pockets on the inside which I used to hold my shoes. I've used this bag for a couple of weekend getaways and for a 7 day trip, and I was able to store everything that I needed easily. Receiving and using this bag has made me want to look into their full product line to purchase other items."

Weekender not Overnighter
"I received the Briggs & Riley Expandable Overnighter from the ZDX Collection complimentary through Influenster in exchange for my honest review. This travel bag is considered an expandable overnighter, but it is much larger than my other overnight bag from a different brand, and I would consider this to be comparable to most weekenders. I have used this bag for two weekend trips now, and it holds all your essentials with room to spare. I like how this was designed where you can zip up or unzip the lower portion to adjust the amount of space. The bag is durable and can hold a good amount of weight without feeling you are stressing the material. This is very lightweight on its own and the handles have a nice cushioned grip to support while carrying. Unfortunately, I did not receive the strap that was supposed to be included with this bag and cannot judge if it is comfortable or distributes weight well to properly carry this bag on your shoulders. Luckily, this has a panel on the back to slip over the handles of a rolling suitcase to make it easier to use with multiple pieces of luggage. The shade Ocean is a beautiful blue that has some black detailing and orange accents. The front pocket also has an RFID shield area, which is conveniently placed and is a nice added feature. This has several other pockets to separate your items as needed, so they do not get lost in all the space this bag has to offer. Overall, this is a nice option if you are looking for a versatile weekend bag to travel with."

Traveling with More Organization, Room, AND Style!
"I love to travel, but am definitely an over-packer that hates traveling with bulky suitcases and likes to keep her bag with her at all times! This bag is the PERFECT solution! I was able to fit multiple sweatshirts, outfits, undergarments, makeup, hair tools-and MORE!! I find it difficult to fill! It's already big, but expands even more! You can carry it over your shoulder or in your hands. It has SO. MANY. POCKETS-which I absolutely adore because I'm an organization freak! The quality is crazy-I think it could survive the roughness any trip and travel could throw my way! I love the sleek, black look-I feel like a celeb when I travel!"

Luxury, convenience, durability!
"This bag is EVERYTHING. I'm seriously so so impressed with it. It's got ample storage room inside, multiple nice storage pockets, a passport/luggage tag holder, a loop to put over your suitcase handle, expandable zipper bottom, RFID pocket. I mean seriously this bag has it all! The material is SO durable. It's easy to wipe clean. The warranty is amazing too!"

Real good bag
"When I say this bag came in clutch. Omg it's the best carry on bag that expands from the bottom. When I tell you it's so spacious and full of compartments to put miscellaneous stuff I ain't playing. I love it!"

Big!!
"I loved that this product had so much space. For an overnight bag I have more than enough room for 2 to 3 outfits shoes, and a make up bag and more. The day I decided to use it it was raining and none of my items got wet. The material is very well done."

3 days worth of stuff in 1 bag!
"Absolutely love this bag! Fit 3 days worth of stuff for a quick trip into it. Will use over and over again. Durable, expandable, and waterproof lining to boot! Padded strap makes the bag easy to carry."

Great product!
"Amazing bag with functional pockets, although the stitch finishing could be finished better. No regrets on buying these bags!"

High quality bag
"My first purchase from this brand, which swiftly led to my wife suddenly deciding she needed a Briggs & Riley bag too - that’s Christmas sorted. Really good quality bag - exactly what I / we needed for a forthcoming extended holiday. Sadly, can’t quite afford the matching spinner case…. ."

Too wide, not enough internal pockets, meh CS
"I was excited to get this bag because it had everything I wanted— it’s expandable, has pockets for water bottles, and seems tough. Unfortunately it’s too large to fit down the aisle of an aircraft while on top of a rollaboard suitcase— my fault for not remembering that when I looked at the dimensions/photos. I also wish this bag had one or two internal pockets (zippered or unzippered) besides the elastic pockets. I’ll be returning mine because I can’t stand having to pull my bag off the handles of my rollaboard every time I board an aircraft. Wishing B&R would make a similar bag that was narrower and would fit down the aisle. Removing a star for the very indifferent customer service rep with whom I just spoke. He answered my questions but I didn’t feel cared for as a customer who just spent $800 on luggage (I also bought a rollaboard)."
