Key Features
Backpack straps, duffle handles, and a shoulder strap give you three distinct carry modes — switch based on the situation, whether that's navigating a busy terminal or walking into a meeting.
The full clamshell opening lays flat like a suitcase, so you can pack neatly and actually find what you packed — no more digging through a top-loading duffle.
A dedicated front pocket with RFID-blocking lining keeps your passport and cards protected and within reach — useful when you're moving fast through security.
Briggs & Riley's Simple as That® warranty covers repairs for life — including airline damage — at no charge and with no proof of purchase required.
Expert Take
If you're a carry-on-only traveler who finds traditional backpacks too limiting for a 2-4 night trip, this is a strong option — the clamshell layout alone makes it feel much more organized than most bags its size. I'd also recommend it for anyone who commutes with a laptop during the week and wants a bag that doubles as a travel bag on weekends without looking out of place in either setting. The leather trim gives it a polished enough look that it doesn't feel like you showed up to a business trip with a gym bag.
