I will never understand pilots. We can buy any 22 inch rollaboard and we choose the ugliest, heaviest, and most expensive options possible. "I paid $450 for this bad boy 15 years ago and with a minor $200 overhaul 8 years ago it is still rolling..." the zippers haven't worked in a decade, it smells like 15 years of gym socks, and you went out on oji because you lifted it weird that one time getting it out of the van.

For the same money you can buy a brand new bag every three years. No broken wheels, zippers, or handles ever again. 22 inch, no bags to catch on the sides if you go guppy, and 4 wheeled suitcases are for grandma who likes to block the moving walkway.
