FO's bag is stored in an overhead bin in the back. Standard roll aboard size, black. Some guys really like the heavy steel framed bags, personally I've used a TravelPro for the last 5 years; 3 years at my prior carrier before I retired, 2 years at Envoy since I came out of retirement...same bag. Handle gives me issues occasionally, but the rest of it is solid.

the luggage works stealth has been around for many decades for a simple reason. It's the best bag for what we do.

I plan to replace mine with the literally a new product when the time comes. Doesn't look butt-ugly, doesn't weigh a ton, does what it's supposed to.

Uhm... FAs had very similar bags for eons. I personally have had the previous version of the pilot bag for 6+ years, changed wheels once, that's about it.

If you're new, I think the most important thing is to look for a bag with a luggage J hook to hang your flight bag off of. It counterbalances the weight and makes it so much easier to pull your bag.
I have the Luggageworks Aurora bag. I like that it is lighter than the heavy metal framed bags (I used to have one) and that it isn't too deep. The handle has always been a little funky and won't stay locked. I like my 20 year old Travelpro, it's handle is still perfect but the bag tends to pack a little fat unless I'm very careful. I would like a new bag but I don't need a new bag. I will go look at Crew Outfitters the next time I am in DFW because now I really want to check out that new Travelpro bag--but not badly enough to order it off the internet.

A few people I fly with have luggage from the link below and are very happy. I am not affiliated with them at all.
