The bag should be made of ballistic nylon or the equivalent, have sturdy, lockable zippers, and strong fittings to accommodate a shoulder strap The bag I personally use the most (because I do more business travel than any other kind) measures 21 x 13 x 8", and features (in addition to the three main compartments) two outside zippered pockets (one full length), an outside sleeve pocket, and tie-downs in each main section. Construction is 1050 denier ballistic nylon, and all exterior seams are bound. When available but could be found in discount luggage stores on a regular basis. The manufacturer has recently struggled through bankruptcy proceedings, however, and this particular bag is no longer produced. If you should manage to discover any of these still for sale somewhere, let me know about it, as I have a lot of readers who''d love to find one! The closest approximation I have been able to find to the above is the Carry-On. Available in black only, this bag is made of ballistic nylon, coupled with some internal padding, making it a little more structured (though also slightly heavier and less supple) than the bag. Otherwise it is very similar. Easy Going lists and as they are the only source, that''s what you''ll have to pay for one.

When wheels first appeared on bags they showed up on four corners at the bottom of conventional suitcases. These were pulled with attached leashes. This arrangement - still around - is notoriously unstable tipping easily in corners, making for a high annoyance quotient. personnel were the first to adopt the now ubiquitous dual-wheel vertical cases that are towed by a pullout handle, wide side at your heels. Variations quickly hit the market and now some are even pulled narrow side. These are obviously easier to tow down narrow aisles, but their narrow wheel base makes them inherently less stable when dodging about busy airports. All the cases have some way to attach smaller pieces (handbags, briefcases, computer carriers, etc.) to them. The first ones used a detachable J-shaped wire hook to hold the add-ons. Theses hooks had a penchant for detaching themselves and getting lost forever in overhead bins and taxi trunks. More satisfactory are today''s adjustable, removable, stow able straps.
