Finally blew out a wheel on my most used carry-on this week and it's time for a replacement and upgrade.

What are your favorites for light business travel?

Rimowa cabin was my go to for many years living abroad and traveling on long haul flights all the time. Circumvented the planet on a 2 wk business trip with just that piece of luggage and a backpack

Been using the same one for a decade and am on a plane every other week on average.

Recently picked up the new Peak Design Roller Pro and really happy so far. I hate hard-sided bags that open in the middle, this is a top loader that is part hard shell and part soft shell and has some really cool features. Wheels are replaceable too.

You asked for best, not cheapest.

this is my suggestion. There's much more expensive options out there, but these guys have the best price/features/warranty balance that I've seen.

North Face here. Many miles. Much abuse.

Osprey Sojourn 22 if you like a duffle style roller. I have had bad luck with the Eagle Creek wheels and at least on the bags we had, they were not replaceable. The Osprey wheels are easily removed and replaced if needed.

It isn't a lifetime warranty against wear and tear. It is always wear and tear when you ship it to them.

I have a Victorinox Werks Traveler 5.0 Wt East/West Garment Bag I no longer use if anyone wants it. It is in 9.0/10 condition and I simply do not use it as I prefer other bags. Make me an offer. Email in profile.

Pelican makes a backpack with an integrated hardshell laptop case. Used this as a carryon for a long time and was happy with it. Didn't have to worry about computer / ipad getting wet / crushed. Rigid enough to be used as a seat in pinch.

Not a four wheel spinner so realize that's a deal breaker for many but me, my wife and my daughter all have one of these in medium. Been very good to us

I just purchased a Monos Carry On size and used it for my recent trip to Aruba. It came highly recommended by some clients and friends. It was great and perfect for short business trips IMO.

Have a few Tumis and an Eagle Creek. If you are looking for cheap I agree that EC is a great option; wheel cracked a few years ago and it was easy to get replacements shipped for free. Tumi repairs (for me usually something related to the handles) are also "free" but you pay $25 to ship it to Georgia for repair.
