Luggage Works looks like Purdy Neat, but it is not. Purdy Neat was high quality and tougher than woodpecker lips. LW, not so much.

My first (genuine Purdy Neat) bag lasted through 9 years of commuter abuse without a problem. It just wore out. It's final demise was due to the kickplate eroding through after 9 years of climbing curbs.

Its (LW) replacement lasted 3 years. The replacement's replacement is less than 2 years old and has suffered failed bearings on both wheels, a broken wheel attachment, a broken wheel, 3 failed zippers (actually, the same zipper failed 3 times) and a bent frame. Walmart bags are a better deal.
