it’s good quality, lifetime warranty, and you can get 20% off your first order (up to 3 items) as an airline employee. Love mine, and about 5 pounds lighter than the LW. And yes, that makes a difference.

Will it fit in an E175 overhead bin?

Not too many people have the strongbags. I have the vertex 21. Going on 4 years with it.

Pros- doesn’t get bent frame like luggeworks. Replacement handle, wheels, and cover so you have a refurbished bag every few years for about half the cost of a new one. You can sit on it. Handle doesn’t scream out that you are crew

Cons- it’s definitely heavier than many bags.

Clubglove CG22, best bag I've used in 30+ years of flying. I've only seen one other pilot at Delta with one and he was just as jazzed with it as me. Perfect fit for the 73, light, durable and dimensionally somewhat unique but still "carry on legal". Can't believe this bag hasn't caught on. Don't pay list $$$.

There’s a Delta discount of 10 or 20%. You are mostly paying for the warranty in my opinion. Kind of like Snap-On Tools.

I'm intrigued. Suggested retail price work-around, please?

As well as a 4 wheel travel pro - smaller, didn’t glide as well and not as good organization inside. None of them have the B&R warranty. Only downside to B&R is price.
What bag/cooler do you pair your Briggs & Riley with? I saw some suggestions for a B&R backpack or briefcase.
If the 20% off is good for 3 things might as well add some accessories. Maybe their toiletry bag too
